Oioioi for that fandom meme, how about J, M, and W? O r just Z because you deserve to be happy. Thanks, btw I love your work! <3
J : oh man… this is actually really hard? I just assume that if it exists, there’s a strange, cult-ish fandom behind it. I guess I didn’t know Steven Universe was such A Thing until tumblr screamed down my throat about it? But i’m not sure that counts.
M : Oh god, another really difficult one, what the fuck. I think my favourite fanartists are when I get to see official artists from shows draw something not from their show. It’s such a treat to see a well known manga-ka draw an american cartoon in their style, or a famous current-day animator draw fanart for an old school 90′s anime. We grow to love the styles of these somewhat famous artists and then you find out one day that they’re a closet fan of Evangelion? It’s kind of magical and you makes you feel connected to that person.
W : oh boy. Fenris. Malik Ishtar. Lotor. Loki Laufeyson. Caleb Widowgast. Completely random choices based on some recent shit I’ve been into.
Z : i just wanna say, that if lotor doesn’t come back in the next season of vld i will cry real tears. I’d love to see him show up as one of the altean mech batteries, being used by haggar cause she’s a crazy bint. I also wanna see him hit his head REAL hard and lose his fucking memory so i get my pseudo redemption arc.
O - Choose a song at random, which OTP does it remind you of
I set my playlist to random and it started playing Feel Good Inc by Gorillaz.
……uh. Jesus that’s a weird song to try to match an OTP to. I suppose Ryou x Akira from Devilman Crybaby. It’s got that ‘the world is a miserable dystopia except for people who know what real happiness is’ sorta feel to it. Yeah. Sure. We’ll go with that.
B for the Fandom Meme please?
B - A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind
Oh booooy hm. I used to be into Katekyo Hitman Reborn, like, biggly. I had a bunch of favs, Squalo among them, but i only ever shipped him with Belphegor. Years later I was browsing tumblr and came across an incredibly steamy fanart of Squalo and Xanxus and realized all too late what I had been missing out on all those years ago. I haven’t looked back since (sorry Bel!).
C, D and X
C - A pairing you have never liked and probably never will
- Ahahahaha okay. Sephiroth x Cloud and/or Tifa x Cloud. BAM, COME AT ME BRO.
- Also K/ance and Shiro x Sendak.
- Luigi x Daisy. You can do better Daisy.
- Gokudera and yamamoto from KHR. I just can’t stand yamamoto. Joke characters can only carry me so far in fandoms and he’s completely insufferable.
- Link x Zelda, although botw REALLY got close, god damn that game stole my heart.
- Thor x Jane, do i need to elaborate on this though? This dynamic could totally work (mundane human mortal x immortal naive godly god is totally a thing i’m down for), but jane has about as much personality as a bag of empty pistachio shells.
- Katara x Aang. In the show? Nope. Later in their lives? Eeeeh… sure. It’s fine. Still really not my jam.
- Sora x Kairi is another one, i don’t loath it or anything, but i’m
personally invested in Soriku and love the idea of Kairi playing wingman for
Riku. I feel like people who ship Sora and Kairi are really similar to
people who ship Sora and Riku though, there’s a lot of similar tropes going on
there.
D - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t
Hawke x Anders LMFAO. I love these characters and i totally get the pairing appeal, i actually think anders is an amazing (albeit shit head) character and i love the tragic love / angst / love turned villain story. I’m just not enough of an edgelord for it. I also wish i liked Zelda x Ganon more than i do.. ? which is almost not at all? (edit: I forgot to add Rhys x Vaughn! While i also like the idea of best friends to lovers, Vaughn’s writing never held up for me aaaaand his voice actor is kind of a terrible person.)
Y - A fandom you’re in but have no ships from
Not sure. I don’t think so? I’m not even in that many fandoms comparatively. I think i end up shipping something in every fandom I’m in, but its more of a spectrum, not a black and white type thing. Some ships are a lot more subdued. Like, i think the closest I come to not shipping anything in a fandom is Critical Role? And that's’ really mostly because of the Fate of my Favourite.
