when you get so bored you start reading fanfic for a ship from a game you know nothing about just as generic stories but the game sounds actually sort of interesting, and then when you look it up on tumblr it seems like the ship are actually sort of just like that in canon and theyre not just being shipped for the sake of shipping something. how has this happened twice now

#i mean i probably wont play this game though its not my sort of thing gameplay wise #cause it seems like you cant just pirate it and if you want to play properly you have to pay in game or get annoyed at it not working #and too focussed on video game mechanics instead of story. probably something id have liked as a kid minus costing money #the worldbuilding looks fairly interesting though and the plot and characters #the character designs are even pretty fun. like more fancy and combat focussed like stuff i used to be into #before becoming an adult and consuming media about lawyers and detectives and that sort of dry stuff #i tried not limiting it by fandom first but there was too many i didnt want to read so i went with a game id heard of #and then ended up with that ship cause i liked the dynamic so it sort of makes sense that theyd actually have a significant #relationship in canon #a big thing that ruins fanfic for me is the mischaracterisation and stuff im like it could be a good story #if it didnt claim to be ablut these characters and keep referencing that #ive read enough fanfic for this ship im basically starting to get a feel for whats mischaracterisation anyway #the settings sort of funny its fantasy ancient modern iraq if it was ruled by a giant university which was also the government #and people took uni colleges way too seriously. but the game has lots of different settings #and for fantasy japan apparently they reference actual real life sakoku policy
