Nepeta's Great CnC Shipping Wall post!
the shipping wall.
Okay guys, so here's the deal! Nepeta is a shipper in her canon and she has a wall -- a wall where she plasters all of her 'ships', along with their quadrant! (Even if you're unfamiliar with troll romance, stay with me here folks, because I'll do my best to summarize!) Her Shipping Wall can be seen here as an example!
Now, Nepeta's ships are SERIOUS BUSINESS and it is important for her to keep up on them, even while she's in The City! Because of this, Nepeta will be attempting to keep track of all of the potential or existing relationships (be they love or hate!!) within the City on a wall of her apartment! However, it's impossible for one troll to keep track of soooo many people!
Bear in mind that in troll culture, there are 4 types of romances (that can all be 'filled' at the same time by three or four other characters). So, in effect, there are 4 types of romantic companions that a character may have! They are as follows:
♥ matesprit: this is the most like human love, so we will just say that it is essentially the same!
♦ moirail: this is someone (platonic or otherwise) who keeps your character in line and protects them, as well as makes sure they do not go crazy on people if they are prone to do so. like a guardian, but it is a form of romance.
♣ auspistice: this is a relationship where there is a 3rd party mediator. the auspistice would be that mediator, who floats over a pair of characters and keeps their relationship healthy!
♠ kismesis: thiiis is a relationship that is fueled by two characters hating one another so much that they're practically in love, essentially. they would kill each other if it didn't mean they wouldn't have anybody to hate anymore. so sad! so romantic!
If you would like to read more about the troll quadrants to provide a better idea of your character's romances with other characters as it would be in troll culture, here is the wiki article on Troll Relationships (beware, there might be spoilers for Homestuck). That will explain troll relationship quadrants in much more depth.
Continuing on!
This is where you come in, dear reader CnC member!
Nepeta will be keeping a Shipping Wall in an entry in her journal that is currently in progress. She will feature little doodles like those above, except of our characters here at CnC! Some examples of what these will look like can be seen here, here, and here!
If you are interested in having a little doodle of your character's relationships displayed on her shipping wall, please comment here and let me know!
All I will need is the following information:
► The characters who are in the relationship! (And their journals preferably, so that I can look at their icons for art references!)
► A description of their type of relationship. Do they love each other like two married humans would? Or, do they hate each other so much that it's aaaalmost love? Are they the third-party mediator to an otherwise ridiculous relationship? Or are they someone's protector, making sure they don't just blow this whole place down? Please include this so she can sort their quadrant correctly! :33
THANK YOU FOR READING ALL THIS TL;DR (wow i am sorry guise) and I HOPE THAT YOU WILL HAVE AS MUCH FUN BEING ON THIS SHIPPING WALL AS I WILL HAVE MAKING IT!
((It is important to note that this version of her shipping wall is in fact separate from her power within the City. If she were to utilize her power, she would have to draw your characters on a particular piece of her wall and she would have to orchestrate it intentionally. So don't worry about this getting your characters into something cray-cray just yet! This is her standard wall, just for fun!))
