Fandom, books, knitting, gardening, tea, and tarot. Missing the old days of twitter and hoping to reconnect with fannish friends here!
Opinion on marriage:

It can be fun if the fic calls for it, but certainly not necessary. I'm more interested in other kinds of commitments: collaring, soulbonding, Alpha/Omega marking...that sort of thing.

5 OTPs from past fandoms:

1. Sam/Dean (Winchester)
2. Seth/Dean (Ambrose)
3. Sid/Geno
4. Adam/Tommy
5. Hannibal/Will

I still cycle some of these in to my current reading, just depends on what I'm feeling into at the time

3 ships you currently love:

1. Too many Critical Role related ships to even narrow down. Just...all of CR, haha
2. Any combination of Iron Bull/Cullen/Dorian (because we are back in the Dragon Age feels after the new game)
3. Venom/Eddie (because again - new installment got me going)

Opinion on platonic ships:

Not for me. Glad they exist and other people enjoy them! But I'm always gonna go romantic.

How important is the sexual part of your ship?

Extremely. I don't read anything rated less than E. My very favorite fics are the ones where the sex IS the plot - see my first answer in this thread about my love for kink discovery.

Do you always have romantic ships for fandoms?

ALWAYS. It's why I'm here. I can't imagine how I would even do fandom without shipping.

If the ship is physical, reversible or not?

I usually have VERY strong preferences on this and tend to avoid fic that doesn't follow my headcanon. It's less about the physical acts than the power dynamic, though. My subs are subs no matter what parts are going where.

Polyamory or monogamy?

Best of both worlds. Characters are pretty open both emotionally and physically, but there is still a PRIMARY pairing that gets to be extra-special.

Rare pairs or mainstream?

I tend to be pretty basic most of the time. My ship tends to be something that isn't canon (or isn't focused on a lot in canon) but gets lots of fandom love.

Multiship or monoship?

I always have my favorites, but mostly I am a multiship fiend. More please.

One physical aspect of a ship that always gets you:

This might surprise some people, because I do really love my smut, but I am absolutely WEAK for first kisses - especially if the tension has been built correctly. That moment of crossing the line...
November 20, 2024 at 4:02 AM
You and me both!

One emotional aspect of a ship that always gets you:

"Your fucked up matches my fucked up." EVERY. TIME. 😭

Three shipping tropes I don't love:

1. Domestic fluff
2. Kidfic
3. Anything that revolves around an everyday job (no coffee shops, thanks)
