Mushishi! Though I know it's hard to have 'ships for Mushishi.

i cheated quite a bit! i'm sorry. ^_^;;

One True Pairing Ship: ginko/no one.He's seen too many people cling to false hope, deceived by more than mushi -- by now he thinks that, perhaps, interdependence can come too close to an unequal symbiosis: mutualism only the ideal state, not the most likely one.
[anachronistic, i know! sorry.]

Canon Ship: soundtrack/art direction, for sure. :D in the manga, watercolour/lack of screentones. but otherwise: the old couple in the shadow-stepping mushishi volume 9. i can't write anything that will do the first two examples justice, so.

"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: ginko/mushi. :(This isn't the sort
of attention I like -- where's
that damned tobacco?

"You are one sick bastard" Ship: nui/yoki. :(A predilection
for young boys -- another thing
he learnt then, perhaps...

"I dabble a little" Ship: ginko/amane would be interesting if i shipped ginko with anyone at all, which i do not. >_>;;"I thought I'd find you here," he says, at the same time as she laughs and not-quite ( ... )

i'm sorry this took forever! (it might have taken even longer, but a slow day at work in the dying weeks of my time here seems to have unexpected side effects.)

One True Pairing Ship: i don't OTP for this series, but perhaps slightly one-sided muraki/oriya?Oriya knows it doesn't mean a thing, but still he waits; and though his guest is infrequent, at least he does sometimes arrive.

Canon Ship: is tsuzuki/hisoka canon? was that one girl/terazuma pairing canon? both of these are kind of sweet, i guess.He can't escape his partner's presence -- beneath the overlay of cheer or fear or any other emotion of the moment, Hisoka's empathy registers a wounded white noise -- so the least he can do is be a different sort of reminder, each frown and eye-roll and exasperated sigh proclaiming despite everything: i'm here, i'm here, i'm here.

"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: hahaha, not that the manga is even running anymore. -_-;; i don't know. any pairing involving one of the gushoushin, perhaps.They had to admit that the ( ... )

Thank you for these! Better late than never ^_^

YnM is all about the Muraki/Hisoka/Tsuzuki it calls to yoooouuu and the ANGST, so the other possibilities are refreshing, especially Muraki/Oriya (the attraction being precisely the one-sidedness) and Muraki/Saki (ditto for the sickness).

...who needs love when you/have Stockholm Syndrome?

Breaking up the haiku, but the mass appeal of YnM in one line.

but Watari/Tatsumi and the Gushoushin brothers *are* canon! XD

you're welcome. ^_^;; and yes, ynm fandom is one long angstfest, probably because anything with tsuzuki in it is automatically angsty.

what scares me is the way people seem to equate stockholm syndrome with OMG TRU LUV. ._.

haha, for a moment there i wasn't sure if you were joking re: watari/tatsumi. i seem to recall lots of watari/tatsumi fic in the fandom.
