i don't ship them because they're healthy!! i want to watch gay motherfuckers make each other bleed. it's interesting!!

"you can't ship those characters they tried to kill each other!" sounds like someone can't appreciate the inherent eroticism of violence 🙄

Sometimes tweeter people know their stuff- this is the right kind of toxic angst I want to read.

I love how Kpop Demon Hunters addressed shipping because the writers know their audience and what they want

Only talks about FICTIONAL characters

Question 1.) Is it okay for someone to ship a lesbian character with another character who is a straight man?

—

Question 2.) Is it okay for someone to ship two characters, who are both canonically straight men, together?

I feel the thing that makes me ship fulgrim and ferrus is how are both from the same time period (which is the Victorian era) but different social classes fulgrim is a high class duke while ferrus is way more based on the Industrial Revolution factory poor workers

Reasons To Ship A Pairing:

A.) The narrative mirror is just too exquisite to ignore. They are each other's diametrical opposites yet their lives are parallels. The similarities are uncanny. Beneath the ideological chasm and quest for vengeance, the hero empathizès with the villain a lot, as they intuitively know they could have ended up like their nemesis in an alternate universe, if they made a different choice. Both of them are more alike than they are willing to admit. Have a lot of same virtues, motivations and vices.

Because readers realize what separates the life paths of the two is not just a binary good vs evil dichotomy or a single choice to side with the right rather than might. The antagonist is someone who maybe was never offered that choice.

Perhaps the villain is more than an embodiment of evil. They are a metaphor of institutional negligence and failure. And that in their mind, they are settling scores, carrying out their own justice which they believe they have been denied. ...

The readers love a villain who is diabolical but there's a stench of tragedy and unhealed wounds lurking underneath the malevolence.

B.) The drama, my dears, the drama! Delicious, delightful drama. One or both of them are theatrical little gremlins. What will happen if they come together ? A good laugh. An opportunity to roll your eyes. Several popcorn worthy moments. A jolly good time.

C.) They couldn't be more different from each other. But, despite the differences there's an undercurrent of unwilling admiration, grudging respect. When the brute force meets unmoveable object, the aftermath is always epic.

D.) You are fond of these blorbos and there are no scenes featuring them interacting in canon unfortunately. Now is the time to correct historic wrongs and make them talk, get to know each other and kiss sweetly, sloppily, messily, ravenously.
