Shippers

Oct 10, 2008 04:10

And now I'm rambling because I'm having a hard time writing (reference 'current mood' on previous post).

So I'm thinking about my last entry and since I haven't said it yet because I'm a pussy afraid to offend people, I figure it's time I say it now. Cause I can say whatever I want in my own journal ( Read more... )

lulz. you totally can't mess with ppl and their ships. The fangirls. They are scary. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that there really is no logic to fandom. It's like, politics tend to be about policies and solid data can be presented and argued. Religion is about faith and culture and all kinds of other things that can be discussed intelligently, but fandom. It's like "clearly these two fictional characters were destined to be together and I've come to this determination based on my interpretation of a series of events that never actually took place or my personal read of their personalities," only not even that logical. A lot of people just go for gut reactions and if you mess with that, you might as well be trying to like...murder kittens at Disneyland or something. It's an offense punishable by...lots of net harassment? And, c'mon now, we all know how irritating that would be.

Dear lord, I know. Like my love for CloudxRiku? As far I know, they've never even met each other. But one day working on PRE-WRITING for a RikuxSora (the story that became 100 Steps to Somewhere), I went, "Hey, wouldn't that be cool if Riku met Cloud while he was working for Maleficent and Cloud was working for Hades."

Yeah, I totally feel you on the unhealthy obsessions. I cannot place exactly why, but but omg Sora. and whenever I find out that ppl don't like Sora, it's like...it's like I don't know...it makes me sad. It's like someone just canceled Christmas or something. And MY irrationally irksome pairing, oddly enough, is Sora with Kairi. I don't know...I just don't feel her character is strong enough as is to hold a candle to him. there is potential there, but...I get annoyed when I see it. I feel like they would be the most boring couple in the world because they are far too similar. Yet I'm pretty okay with Sora and Namine? How does that make sense?

But yeah, ships are like opinions. No need to apologize about 'em right? And I've seen Zack paired with some random ppl lately, ever since Crisis Core I think. There's a series of Zack/Sora short-shots(my new word for those drabbly ficclet things that aren't REALLY drabbles) and yeah...I find it hard seeing Zack paired with anyone...because I don't know enough about him. *shrug*

I so get what you mean about the Sora and Kairi. But I often feel like that about 'real' canon pairings. They're boring. Maybe because they're canon. Maybe because we are supposed to like them together just because the game makers say so. I don't know. But, yeah, Sora and Kairi are boring. Kairi is who I let Sora date when I don't feel like going into his relationship in my story. I'm like, "There, Sora and Kairi! No need to explain! Yay ( ... )

I totally agree they're sexy and I actually agree that they look better together. It's just not enough for me. I'm quite picky. With just about everything.

Though the fact Cloud doesn't really like anyone (except, maybe, Leon cause he's even especially detached from Aerith) doesn't help my case for CloudxRiku.

I also know it was established. I just feel like I may have fueled it a bit and accidentally introduced new people. I don't think I'm that powerful.

And I don't hate the ship. It just annoys me. I think I would like it if I wasn't such a one ship only kind of person. I decide who I like and it stays that way once I really settle into a fandom. Cause LeonxCloud was totally my favorite ship before I got into CloudxRiku.

I don't know. I have nothing to support my pairing. It just rubs me the right way I guess.

And I'm rambling again. Ugh. But in conclusion, no, I don't hate you or want to kill myself. I definitely agree with you. It just doesn't rub me the right way as smexy as they would be togehter.

Oh yeah. Totally a one ship kind of person. I have my ships (can be more than one) for a fandom, but the characters just don't crossover. They stay in their ship and that's how it is for me. When I first get into a fandom I'm all over the place and eventually I settle into a ship and that's that ( ... )
