Send me a ship
oikisu: send me a ship and i’ll reply with vomit / don’t ship / okay / cute / adorable / perfect / beyond flawless / hot damn / screaming and crying / i will ship them in hell I’m up late with insomnia but I’m too stressed to do anything genuinely productive, so I thought …
Do you read Bride Stories by Kaoru Mori? I love them ❤️
Gonna answer a few shorter asks all together in a group to avoid the spam. I got like 34860608 asks regarding the shipping essay but it’s going to be a while before I can answer them all because I am trying to dedicate as much of my teeny-tiny amount of free time to my actual …

Kindly stop tagging your non-Sheith meta as sheith. It’s rude. If I wanted to read about klance, I would look it up in the klance tag.
I tagged it that way specifically to piss you off.Or, you know, because I spent multiple paragraphs noting that, as the emotional heart of the story, Keith has an important impact on Shiro’s character and that his strongest tensions include links to Shiro, before I transitioned into the statement that applying the premise of my …
Why Do Certain Ships Become So Popular? (And Why Should Writers Rethink When They Do?) – Part 1
(Damn, look who’s showing up ten years late to this discussion with Starbucks…)Hey guys, just want to start with a preface here: I’ve recently been in several separate conversations about why certain ships become so popular, what leads people (and woman in particular) to ship so much, why certain fandoms become over-zealous in their shipping, …
Why Do Certain Ships Become So Popular? (And Why Should Writers Rethink When They Do?) – Part 2
<- Start back at part 1 or you’re going to be very confused! This time my victim of choice example is Klance (and Allurance and Lotura too).In a previous post, I established the premise that shippers focus their efforts and attention on ships between characters who exhibit the most compelling dynamism, the greatest amount of …
Maybe you don’t want to answer this, but do you think Voltron falls under the bury your gays, word of gay and/or queerbaiting tropes?
Ah, at the risk of my follow count which dips whenever I’m anything less than glowing about Voltron, lol…1) The Voltron writers knew about the “bury your gays” trope and killed their gay characters anyway, so yeah, that’s pretty blatantly bury your gays, no way around that. Maybe if it had been one of the …
Another anon. Regarding the ship ask I think it should be acknowledged that skin color and sex is also a reason as to why the ships are popular. 2 light skinned guys among a cast of darker skinned characters? 1 of them being canonically Japanese? And the other ship with a light dark skinned boy around the same age. All being male. Oh yeah ppl are fetishizing the hell out of the characters. A (This is in no way meant to be rude to you, just pointing it out)
I mean… “Cast of darker skinned characters” isn’t really accurate unless you’re including the alien characters like the Galra. Until Season 7, there were only two major characters darker than Lance, Hunk and Allura, both of whom are shipped as well, although I agree that Hunk is under-appreciated (but again, that’s in part because the …
Hi, I just finish Home and a Half ( it awesome by the way) and the bio for Xerci. The way you describe Xerci it sounds like him and Lance are close , so I need to know do they have epic spa days together ? PS : The face that you are an English professor has me horribly paranoid about my grammar. So sorry about my grammar.
I don’t want to spoil too much, but since I think most of this pertains to stuff that would come after the story ends–yes, Lance and Xerci become very close and bond over many similarities shared between them. Although sometimes they’re almost too similar, to the point where they see through each other’s fronts and …
What is Galra hygiene like? Are the kids’ needs being met in this department?
I love fun asks like this~! Worldbuilding is my fav; maybe I should just skip plot and just write a history textbook for the Galra Empire as my fanfic instead. XDIn any case, Galra are fastidious creatures who run tight ships–uncleaniness or slovenliness is not tolerated anywhere in the Empire. As a matter of principle …
