1. Ā Talk about the first ship you ever had.
Oh man, I donāt even remember cos Iāve been a shipper literally forever. When I was a kid I shipped het pairs in all my fave TV shows and books, including non-canon pairs/pairs that werenāt the ones you were supposed to ship, though I canāt remember specifics now. Eg Iām sure I mustāve shipped Maid Marian with *someone*, but I cannot remember who, though Iām hoping it was Barrington rather than Robin, lol. I even shipped athletes – I remember shipping Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf when they both won Wimbledon, years before they got married, so fingers crossed for the rest of my OTPs eh
2.Ā Talk about three of the most important ships throughout your life.
Heero/Duo from Gundam Wing, for sure, cos they were the first pairing I wrote a large quantity of fic for, and I guess the first proper pairing community I was a part of. Plus there was a MOUNTAIN of fic for them, so I had a lot of happy times there.Ā
Yasuba, because that was SO REAL and theyāve made awesome music together and itās easy to believe something actually couldāve happened there before Subaru freaked out lol >.>Ā
And ofc Rolipe, in part cos theyāre my current OTP and have been for over 5 years now, but also cos, again, thereās a really great and tangible chemistry between them and the what-ifs and headcanons are rich and plentiful. Plus thereās some really top class fic for them, and all the Rolipe shippers Iāve met are also top class folks and Iām glad to knowĀ āem :3bĀ
23. Which of your ships deserve better writing?
(I answered this question before I considered that actually itās probably more about canon fictional ships and their creators lol, but safe in the knowledge that Iām not really a part of these fandoms I wrote a meaner answer about the fic in them lol >.>)
Because of who asked me this I am ofc put in mind of NEARLY ALL MY PRINCE OF TENNIS SHIP man I boarded every ghost ship going in that fandom and had to adopt some more populous ships almost out of desperation lol. Momo/Ryoma was a particularly bad example, I seem to recall – very rare you got anything decent for them, cos people in that fandom just didnāt like cheeriness ;(
Also Freddie/Brian in Queen fandom, which is 99% awf except that one amazing writer. I donāt like that skew!
