being in fandom and aro is like i enjoy these characters' dynamic 'right? they're the perfect couple!' hmm well they're not together in canon, so that's not really the dynamic i'm talking about 'oh, so you don't ship them? i guess it's because you're aro, but that's okay! they can still be platonic!' free your mind.. please. do you understand that these categories of attachment are made up? are you capable of enjoying a relationship dynamic without first defining it?

Sometimes I feel that Barnaby and Wally have this friendship like big bro/Lil bro, and Howdy being Barnabys bf has to put up with a lot of Wallys shenanigans for Barnaby (doesn't mind cause he also adores Wally I'm a big bro way)
i view them (as a trio) Similarly! though a little to the Left cause i don't view Barnaby & Wally's relationship as big/lil bro. rn to me they're very close friends - borderline queerplatonic! like... Wally is Barnaby's special little guy, yk?
so in my mind, in this trio, Wally's not exactly a. uh. third wheel to Barnaby/Howdy i suppose? oh this is difficult to translate into words - he's part of the relationship without being Part of it if that makes any sense? like of course he's gonna be With them a lot. Barnaby's not gonna be like "ok go do something else so i can make doe eyes at Howdy". that's his Little Buddy. they're gonna Include him as much as possible, i'd imagine. and i doubt Wally would mind being around while they flirt chat. he'd probably love being Barnaby's "wingman"

i love how its a common trope to give noah friends (aside from izzy, eva and owen), I've seen him with lindsay, courtney, gwen, tyler, harold, leshawna, cody, duncan, heather and more.
i love how its also a common trope to make chris and cheff like. eccentric uncles or father figures, expanding on something that the show introduced and did nothing with, its great honestly.
i also love how noah being a dad is also a common trope for him, and how he has so. many. children. idk. he's just so. dad shaped to me. yknow

i hope batlantern and halbarry enjoyers get along, there’s a lot of potential with this messy string of dynamics
i like the idea of hal and bruce being a short-lived but meaningful fling, like a “right time, right moment” situationship. seeing as they’ve both had their “we’re more alike than you think” and “you’re getting in your own way” observations abt each other, it could be productive and therapeutic to sort out their feelings thru their reflections of the other. they don’t have the compatibility or even desire to make this a lasting commited relationship, but i just think if they fucked, they could chill tf out lmao
i don’t need to go into halbarry, i feel like it speaks for itself loud and clear lol. long story short, they’re endgame to me and the most likely to be committed to a relationship, which is rly saying smth consider half of this dynamic involves hal. but regarding how they connect to batlantern, i just think it’d be rly funny in the context of JL:war. barry obviously had a crush on batman upon introduction, immediately inciting hal’s petty jealously (seriously, how do these 3 not get talked abt all together as a trio). so if we go by the idea that hal and bruce had a fling, i can only imagine what kind of conversation that would be once hal and barry got together
- B: “you slept with BRUCE? as in THE batman bruce??” / H: “yeah, it was a while back.” / B: “WHERE WAS I IN ALL THIS”
bruh as far as barry is aware, hal doesn’t even like bruce and even got mad at BARRY for not hating him too. and then he goes ahead and sleeps with the guy smh the double standards, barry’s gonna be up thinking abt this one for a few nights. tfw your boyfriend and your crush got together without you </3 hey, at least it’s fantasy-fuel right?
as for bruce and barry, their relationship is i think the most complicated of the three. they clearly have smth special, and while i do think barry’s little crush was one-sided, i also think bruce treats barry differently from the rest of the team. he already had a lot of respect for barry to begin with, but the letter barry delivered from bruce’s dad in flashpoint HAD to have changed their dynamic. if you haven’t read it, thomas credits the flash for teaching him that he can’t live for the people he’s lost, he has to live for the people he still has, and so he passes on this lesson to his son. how would bruce feel abt that?? how would he feel abt his DEAD dad telling him to cherish his living relationships, meanwhile having barry as the only thread between both?? that his friend got to meet his dead dad and become his reason for living? that the words of wisdom his dad is passing on to him were essentially from barry himself? barry’s probably gotten over his starstruck phase with bruce by now, and he’s got too much integrity to pry or even know what impact he’s had on either of their lives, but i think bruce WOULD learn to cherish his relationships from this. i think barry has a soft spot in bruce’s heart in a way that no one else does ;__; lord knows what barry sees in him or hal, but the guy’s got a good heart, so he must be doing something right

i saw the post about sending tf2 asks so here's my chance. i don't know this blog's opinion on texas toast but i swear the game likes to pair pyro and engie for some reason. pyro has not one but two weapons for saps. in the comics most of the mercs don't really interact with pyro and seem to think they're weird, but the few times engie & pyro are together dell is really nice to them. they have matching little doll cosmetics of each other HELLO?? (pocket pardner & pocket pyro) y'know how heavy n medic have that too? is it supposed to be gay? i wish they did more with this i feel like i'm getting little bread crumbs by valve wtf (also sorry i just realized the block of text i'm sending)
I mean, i think theyre definitely one of the pairs with a designated Dynamic in the sense that yeah theyre paired together a lot in official stuff (re: true meaning comic and all that) but like. They can also be paired together without it being implied to be a gay thing. Sometimes characters simply have dynamics.
But YEAH just in general i would love to see more stuff surrounding any of the merc dynamics tbh… we get so little. Crumbs. Slivers, even.

A few days late, but I prefer spicynoodles to dragonfruit because as a lesbian, seeing the girl get paired off with a guy in the Friendship Show just Bothers me. I felt like there were a bunch of potentially romantic tells during the S3 special, and I even found that grating. The only ship I want confirmed canon is freenoodles I also really liked MK and Red's villain vs hero dynamic in the first season - like shadowpeach but far more lighthearted - and tbh? I wish we saw more of it before RS got redeemed! Villain Song by Kirby Krakle is a Red Son song to me.
I think you're actually less than 24 hours late!
Though I'm 100% with you, I don't really want anything confirmed canon except freenoodles. I think my acespec self is in general really confused by the difference between romance and friendship, and I value both equally/just kinda mix the two. Like, a romantic pairing is just a different way to explore a relationship for me rather than it being the "end goal", you know? But if Mei and Red Son were the only confirmed pair by the end, that would be lame.
Anyways Villian Song by Kirby Krakle SLAPS. An immediate "I guess I'm going to play this over and over again" song for me.
Every time I build a robot
Every time I sink a ship
Every time I throw a girl off of a big old building or abandoned bridge
It seems you're always there to stop me
I've had enough I'm sick of it
No more scheming, no more stealing
I think I'm done with all of this...
[...]
Until I saw you on the TV
Your stupid smile all big and bright
The old fire started again burning
It found me itching for a fight
It has all the elements of Red Son here. There's even a fire metaphor

i was rereading all the ytr posts and i nearly cackled when i was looking at what u wrote for ranmaru and sara in the relationship chart like. i giggled so hard. "crushing on <3" "he’s alright" IT’S SO FUNNY TO ME. I’M DYING OVER HEEERE
GSHSJHDSHSH I’M GLAD SOMEONE FOUND IT FUNNY 😭 i love ranmaru and sara they’re very silly to me but i feel like a lot of other fan content doesn’t really match the vibe i envision for them. so of course i had to take matters into my own hands and treat ranmaru like the sopping wet dog he is

In today's episode of 'Sae, do you (...)': the topic of Ningguang and Yelan, and I thought that I should note my opinion more clearly outside of my rules as it's very important information for my portrayal: I do not ship Ningguang and Yelan romantically.
Honestly, while this is of course my own opinion, I don't find that there's anything to really substantiate a romantic interest between the two. For starters, I don't think that Ning, as interesting of a character as she is with a past that might just be similar in its 'rise' to Yelan's (we're left with very little information on the latter's childhood), ticks the right kind of boxes for her, though to be fair: not many do. Yelan craves a specific sort of thrill in her life, I mean she lives it at the roll of a dice because she is, on some level, bored, and craves the unexpected, the unusual, the 'surprise', and Ningguang's life nor personality seem to play into that. Beyond it, Yelan would need a kinship within this very specific 'loneliness' that I talk about too often and I think that Ning is not one who quite meshes into that in the right way.
Second, despite their long-standing history that even predates their mutual involvement with the Qixing, there seems to be a certain professional distance between the two that I'm quite fond of that is shown in brief event cutscenes, and also Yelan's vision story, that I find inherently intriguing. Perhaps this distance plays more into Yelan's character of not investing too heavily, or rather not too easily, into social dynamics than it does Ning's (I'm not one to weigh in on her character), but it seems evident to me that there's also that semblance of professionalism that creates a line that takes away the possibility of growing closer on an emotional level. And whether that's a mutual decision or not is not up to me to judge, but I think it's one that's made rather clearly from Yelan's side. On top of that, Yelan is Yelan and it's my personal belief that shipping her is rather difficult.
Now I'm also inherently of the opinion (unpopular, I know, I apologize) that dynamics aren't always more interesting when written in romantic settings, and I don't think it's a benefit for all of them to veer into a romantic nature. And in my opinion (and most importantly: in my depiction and understanding of Yelan's character), I think that having Ning and Yelan cross the line from professionalism into something inherently more rooted in romanticism, would be a detriment to their dynamic. Because honestly, I think the fact that Ningguang being one of two people (other being Uncle Tian) to know Yelan best, without ever crossing that line, is too good. I would simply, well, just prefer to keep that not only platonic, but professional, but of course not excluding it of Yelan's quips, and the occasional 'confidant' element.
/rambles in tags because I feel like I have more to say that I shouldn't flood the post with.

Baconswag posting is rlly funny because i actually can’t see either of them as anything other than aro spec. If they have any attraction it’s very situational and very limited.

Aro who enjoys platonic content: Oh wow, this media I just found is full of affectionate friendships! And it's got a pretty sizeable fan base!! I bet I'll find loads of fan content that reflects the canon relationshi-
Fandom infected with the plague that is amatonormativity: They're dating. More than friends. There's no heterosexual explanation for this! Fellas, is it gay to *insert a behavior that can be interpreted a number of ways*?
Aro who enjoys platonic content, and no longer feels welcome in this space: Nevermind.

Anyone who uses ao3 know how one would go about tagging a longform fic with a relationship which isn't the endgame by any means but that still briefly happens? Like, especially if the ship is called out as bad in your story, and especially especially if characters in the relationship get into other, better relationships afterwards.

Ah yes. Hollow and their *checks list* 8 partners
LISTEN-
Ok, I only seriously ship them with like. 4. 6 if you consider the two AU-specific partners (Hector for Pure and Ichor for Hallow (sorry about the selfcest jumpscare)). 7 if you include queerplatonic partners. The rest are "oh this dynamic/scenario could be fun to explore but none of the already existing bastards fit it" and also the joke that was Hallow's absolutely MASSIVE polycule
...okay yeah no, I have a problem /j
