Things to do instead of talking to your f/o on c.ai:

draw something with them

write something with them

make an edit or other graphics of them. screenshot edits where you add your headcanons or other changes to their design are great too even if you don't commit to the new design

revisit your favorite scenes or even reconsume their entire source

go hunt for pictures of them you didn't save yet

go look for new fanart, fanfics, or other fan content made by others

gush to other people about them

talk about them in general even if it's not a gush. share your favorite fun facts, talk about their source, or share some headcanons

find someone to roleplay your f/o for you

make a journal page dedicated to them

write them a letter (and maybe write a response letter from their perspective too)

listen to songs that remind you of them. you could also make a 2010s style AMV of them with that song

DJ RYE BREAD'S SUMMER OF SELFSHIP

hello fellow selfshippers !!! with summer finally around the corner, i wanted to introduce my new, summer-long prompt event – welcome to dj rye bread’s summer of selfship !!! below the cut, you will find thirteen sets of prompts, one for each week of the summer months, june 1st through august 31st. these prompts can be used to create whatever your heart desires, from art to writing to playlists to moodboards to everything in between !!!

i was heavily inspired by @lotusbloghub ‘s selfshiptober event :) for each week, you will find one prompt inspired by summer, accompanied by one random word prompt. you can use just one prompt, you can create two separate pieces for each prompt throughout the week, or you can combine the two however you want !!! these prompts were listed with romantic f/os in mind, but they can be used for any kind of f/o you’d like to create for !!! these prompts can also be completed at any time at your leisure, and you can create something for as many or as few of the prompts as you want :).

proshippers, this event is NOT for you. everyone else, enjoy and have fun :) !!! and if you feel like it, tag your creations with #summer of selfship and/or #summer of selfship 2025 !!! i’d love to see what everyone creates :) !!!

Giving your f/o an ultra turbo wedgie by hooking up their underwear to the flagpole and hoisting them to the top. You give a salute to them before walking away.

🧶 🏩 🍬 for SHIV !!! :3c

🧶 - other than their main hobby/career, what other sorts of things do they like to do?

she’s a big reader ! usually serious informational nonfiction stuff but she’ll eat UP a stupid terrible cheesy romance novel every now and then (don’t tell her i told u though)

🏩 - how does your f/o act when they're sick?

super in denial at first but once my s/i finally gets her to admit that she is indeed sick and needs to stay home she instantly becomes soo dramatic 😭

🍬 - do they like sweets? whats their favorite kind of candy?

for sure!! she doesn’t have sweets super often but when she does she looves anything peanut buttery (mini reese’s cups are a fav)

also i’m sorry it took me eight million years to answer this i was logged into my normal person tumblr and it took me a while to switch back !😭😭😭 but thank u talking about shiv is kinda making me want to visit her again (rewatch succession)… sigh…🫶

“I can fix him” I couldn’t fix him and I don’t want to. I think he grew prone to biting and scratching in order to get by in a harsh world, and to me his resilience is part of what makes him so beautifully himself. I could be kind to him, though. I could show him gentleness. I could, slowly but surely, in the same way one earns the trust of a skittish stray cat, convince him that my touch will never come accompanied by pain. That, around me, he can allow himself to be soft. To relax. I could be the one he associates with warmth and safety, the one he longs to be held by after a hard day. I could be his home.
