being nonbinary in a world that refuses to acknowledge more than 2 genders is weird bc like. i've literally found myself thinking "what if i go on hormones so my parents misgender me but in a different way"

I think one aspect to measure a ship's rarepairness is it's popularity when compared to crackships. If it's more popular than generic crackship 254 then it's probably not a rareepair but if more people will know the crackship than the alternative serious and maybe even well thought out ship between two characters then it is probably most probably a rareepair
i wasnt rly talking about differences between rarepair and crackship but more "what makes a ship popular" in general
imo the difference between crackship and rarepair is the amount of canon content 🤔 crackships don't need a base at all but rarepairs usually have one. if it's "these two characters who haven't talked much would be interesting together" then it's a crackship (what makes a ship rare is a bit harder to measure and each case it's exclusive because you have to take a lot of factors into account). But. i don't think they're mutually exclusive things it's more like. all (or almost all) crackships are rarepairs but not all rarepairs are crackships. for example i'd say rinne/shu is somewhat a crackship? it doesn't have much canon content afaik. meanwhile mitsu/haji, who are both in the same unit and have had several 5*+4* events together, are more of a rarepair: neither are each other's most popular ship, or even second most-popular. but also rinne/shu have 80 fics on ao3 (which is more than some def not rare ships) and mitsu/haji have 11. of course character popularity plays a huge part here (big part of why i said its hard to measure how rare a ship is) (did u guys know kaname has more fics than mitsuru) but my point is.
you could place mitsu//haji in rare, rinne//shu in crack and (spins roulette) haji//shu in both and it all quite checks out

oh my god I can’t imagine Meenah and Kurloz successfully talking through their feelings without Feeder Vantas holding their fronds every step of the way, and while I’m sure somebody somewhere has a pale exhibition kink (cough Gamzee cough) I don’t think Meenah is one of those somebodies. Although Meenloz have been pretty extreme exhibitionists in other ways, huh? Does Meenah get her kicks humiliating people both in both a conciliatory and concupiscent sense? But she wouldn’t want to be the one whose feelings are exposed . . .
(I've never put the words "pale exhibitionism" together in my head but I do think I've written it for Gamkar several times without necessarily meaning to lmao. That's very funny in light of another fic I'm working on right now)
RE: Meenloz, I think the humiliation part for Meenah is bound up in a sexual response, so for a purely pale relationship it wouldn't be on the table--theoretically it could be for her blurred/vacillating thing with Kurloz, but also Kurloz is much more willing to have sex over a table in front of an entire banquet than he is to be completely vulnerable emotionally for 0.2 seconds. So like, I think she knows him well enough to know that if she pushed on that it would not go well.
Also yes, HER unwillingness to express any actual emotions in any helpful way is a big part of the problem, and she definitely can't take what she dishes out. What the fuck for should she be humiliated or embarrassed or vulnerable about shit. She's the empress. Fuck off with that. 😤

Heyyyy guys. I'm with you 100%, I WANT Lilia's dream to be when he found Silver. I'll scream and perish and die if that's the case I am SERIOUS oh my god. But also um, what if it wasn't. What if Silver and Malleus want him to be in their lives so badly and Lilia's fantasy dream has little to nothing to do with them. Um. What are we going to do then.

kaede and/or shuichi fall asleep on kiibo a lot i think... he's warm makes them feel safe.... he's not that comfortable to lay on LMAO but they deserve a little sleepy time
kiibo is soooooo careful of them when they do he does his best to stay perfectly completely still for however long they stay asleep but over time he gets more comfortable. he is so overwhelmed with emotion every time because it's like wow they feel safe enough to just fall asleep..... i think postgame kaede and shuichi are so clingy with each other and especially can't fall asleep at night without each other so if it's just one of them kiibo's like !!!!!!!!!!!!!!WHAT

You thought I was done for a while. No. Here’s the PLANT EPIC WUBBOX OF TBoCI… In the far future.
When I say far future, I MEAN far future, for this absolutely terrifying beast had to transform from machine to flesh!
Basically, the TBoCI PEW, previously known as Mourner while it was still in the Monster World, somehow managed to fall into the Human World after being cursed. The exact curse? Nobody knows. But the curse changed into one of transformation after it fell, and Mourner soon became known as Arbre Mort to the humans who saw it while it was recovering.
All that remains of the wubbox side of it is the chest! I will draw and release what Arbre Mort looked like as Mourner someday soon, as well as tease the other Epics. :)
