#shipping question

[rey-jake-therapist]

What’s up with our ship tag nowadays? I just want to enjoy some Galadriel x Sauron content to relax, and it’s filled with haters and people always talking about Celeborn, Celebrian, and how “wrong” is to ship Galadriel and Sauron together as if we cared. Personally, I only check on some positive blogs now, so thank you for your service 🙌🏼 also, the “Mairon/Galadriel” meta on your blog was the only cute thing in our tag today!

Unfortunately, anti shippers have always existed. In every fandom, there's always a bunch of people who seems dedicated to ruin other people's fun because they haven't found their own obsession and are jealous. Or maybe they're just miserable and want to see others miserable as well, I don't know.

Anyway, we should not judge them too harsh and feel pity for them instead, because they're obviously very sad and bitter people, if the only way to find solace for them is to bullying harmless shippers online :)

We need a sweetheart for Clara, do we go with

A. Velvette

B. Loona

C. Random angel

D. Octavia

E. Someone else

I'd say we should probably leave Octavia off this list, just because she's not yet 18. And knowing me, I'd be extremely picky about the types of shipping posts I'm comfortable posting about her. Probably better to leave her out of the equation.

Everyone else should be fair game, though! May I also suggest Molly as one of the potential random angels, and Jesse the bouncer, because it would be hilarious if the girls both found their SOs at Ozzy's (and also because I feel bad for him after the night he had with Blitz and Stolas, LMAO).

Any other suggestions are welcome! I will pin up another poll when the current one ends, so be thinking about it!

im not one to usually be too much into shipping (i have a few ships i think are cute/could be cute if the charachters actually met) but i have a question im just curious about

Is immortal x mortal count as a proship?

Ive seen people online call other ppl proshitters for shipping thousand year old gods (with adult appearance dw) with 20-30 year old mortals. Or 2 gods that have a few hundred years age difference.

Its silly ik but i just want a confirmation about if its wrong or not and why it is or isnt so im not on the wrong side of things or accidentally support proshipping cuz.. thats gross wtf.

Columbo and the Knight (1984)

put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.

According to NBC here in the US, the missing titanic sub has been found. As debris. Off the bow of the Titanic wreckage.

And it looks like the sub suffered what we all suspected, and what was undoubtedly the more merciful of the two options: a catastrophic implosion from the pressure.

Also, more info has come to light about the fishing trawler with the hundreds of migrants that sank cataclysmically off the coast of Greece, indicating that the greek coast guard knew about the vessel AND how much trouble the vessel was in, and were towing it at a speed that made it capsize, at which point they unhooked the tow line and watched the trawler sink without helping the passengers to safety. Despite a bunch of other ships trying to help as well throughout the whole ordeal.

So a lot of people are dead, all because of regulations (and the lack thereof) regarding sea-faring vessels and rescue protocols. People shouldnt be allowed to make a business charging a ton of money for a ride on an uncertified, unsafe, un-seaworthy ship going deep into the ocean with no distress beacon or tether to the mothership. People also shouldnt be allowed to enact laws that criminalize the ferrying of refugees, which then force the refugees to hitch rides on fishing trawlers, and which also prevent people from helping those fishing trawlers full of refugees due to fear of legal consequences.

Hopefully BOTH of these events spark changes on an international scale in terms of what is legally allowed to be sailed, who is legally allowed to be the passengers, and what the rescue protocols are in the event of disaster for any seafaring vessel, illegal or not. It shouldnt be just the global 1% who get 24/7 search parties and remote-operated submersibles helping rescue them.

Do you ship J x V?

I find the ship very adorable but I don't actually ship them, I don't mind if people ship them of course, maybe I'll ship them in the future!

Thanks for the ask!

Are you ship darklina?

I don't, sorry about that !

Pretty much for the reasons I stated here about not wanting a kiss Halbrand/Galadriel when she didn't know he was Sauron : https://www.tumblr.com/rey-jake-therapist/761940910590263296/so-you-think-the-kiss-we-are-getting-is-safer-than?source=share

The Darkling seduced Alina and kissed her while being dishonest about who he was and what he really wanted from her. That was enough to make me dislike the man. Their relationship became boring in season 2, imho.

I didn't ship Alina with Mal either, for the record. I felt forced by the narrative to want them together (this freaking meadow... urgh), which produced the opposite effect 😅. I shipped Alina a bit with Genya (mostly because of their insane chemistry), but that's it.

in scott's pov (ep7) he refers to scar as grian's husband. no one tells him this is not the case. this is because traffic!scott decides who is and is not married like some sort of contractually binding arbiter of love. to me anyways

DpxDc AU: Tim as a child was never given a lot of information regarding the scribbling messy handwriting that appeared over night all over his arms- naturally he came to his own conclusions.

Tim Drake was home entirely alone at 9 years old and was about to go out for the night to test his brand new long exposure camera lens when he sees the writing on his arm. It’s not English, like he assumed it was at first, but it was using the alphabet to represent… Tim isn’t bad at math but this formula is complex for his little genius brain.

Looking at his camera, he decides he can spare a moment to look it up, solve it, and get back out into old town Gotham in time for Batman and Robin’s final patrol lap. He does just that, finding the problem to relate to some aerospace engineering and then quickly deduces what laws and theorems need to be applied. He finds a pen, writes down his findings in much neater handwriting onto his arm, and goes out. It’s barely a remarkable night at all. He gets a much more memorable photo of Robin roundhouse kicking a hench person.

Things just continued on that way. Tim would find some complex math, physics or chemistry prompt on his arm (surrounded by various question marks or notes or sad faces)- he’d answer it as best he could and move on with his life. Perhaps his parents were manifesting these pop quizzes? Perhaps his subconscious felt guilty about abandoning his studies for more Bat related pursuits? Tim really didn’t care to think much about it once he became Robin- there was too much on his plate and too many peoples problems for him to fix.

Notably, however, after the attack at the Tower, the pop quiz appeared and Tim wrote back that he wouldn’t be able to find an answer to this one. It was the only time Tim questioned the markings appearance and it was because the next thing that appeared was “Hope you feel better soon.”

… his parents wouldn’t include that on a pop quiz. Cursed then. Tim decided it must be a curse, whatever, he’d deal with the implications later in life.

Tim then has the worst year of his life, hes 15, no longer Robin and the questions from his curse are getting less math oriented and more… philosophical. A lot of mentions of death that, in hindsight helped him actually grieve, and a lot of theories about dark matter and souls. Tim answers back as best he can but he’s drained and his answers aren’t very good in his opinion. He gets minimal feedback.

It all comes to a point that he’s at a family dinner, Bruce is at the head of the table, Jason has promised just to stay for dessert, Damian hasn’t thrown a single insult his way and Steph was laughing at him- when a new theoretical model appears on his arm.

“You’re just as bad as Bruce, Timberly. Hiding a soulmate from all of us, how fucking typical.” Jason points out, while watching Tim scribble back some math with a question mark onto his arm.

“A what? No, this is just a curse. I get pop quizzes every now and then.” Tim bats away Steph who rapidly approaches and began to analyze his arm (the rest of the family isn’t far behind).

“Drake. Explain how you came to this conclusion.” Damian seems more curious than anything, if his lack of insults was anything to go off of.

“Since I was young I’ve had at least weekly math check ins, I never had a parent or anyone else around so I assumed my parents had me cursed to ensure I stayed on top of my studies. Sometimes it’s physics or chemistry, for a while there it was a ton of philosophy and behavioral psychology.” He shrugs his shoulders.

“Master Tim, I believe the lack of adults in your life has led you towards a false conclusion. That is most certainly a soulmate mark. The individual to whom you are responding is undoubtedly your other half.” Alfred attempts to calm the room before explaining to Tim. Tim isnt sure if he believes the butler, though Alfred only very rarely lied, so he grabs the pen once more. He writes his first question back: “Who am I to you?”

The room waits in anticipation and within moments a brand new line appears on Tim’s arm and he is vindicated: “We do math together???”

The reason Danny is failing English is because his built in homework helper sucks ass at metaphors and has apparently never read any classic literature. The tutor on his arm is great at puzzles and math tho.

Danny gets a reply back one night that he wasn’t expecting (Who am I to you?) and he mentions it to Jazz. Who goes insane that Danny didn’t even question it and just went with “meh, probably haunted” as his explanation for the phenomenon for all these years.

Apparently, if Jazz was right, he had a soulmate who was uh, super fucking smart. That was an overwhelming thought.

The next day Danny is in crisis mode and writes back “Wait, WHAT AM I TO YOU??? Can I help on your homework??”

Danny gets vindicated when the writing on his arm presents a shit ton of dates and information for an unsolved Gotham cold case. See, Haunted.

Eventually between Danny becoming the top candidate for astrophysics at Wayne Enterprises and Tim Drake being outed as having contributed tips to the GCPD that solved cold cases- they meet and realize just how dumb they’ve been.
