( Do you have any ships? Also are you aware of any popular ships in fandom ? (like even before I read homestuck, two particular ships always showed up in my dash) )
Hoo Hoo Hoo. I know NOTHING of the ships. NOTHING!!! I don’t know any popular ships, I don’t know any canon ships, if I did see fan art (rarely) it was a group pic of the humans, but even then I am unsure. So I am a clean slate!!!
I don’t know if I have any ships exactly. Most of the time I see people as really close friends/platonic relationships unless explicitly stated otherwise. (I once didn’t realize 2 of my close friends were dating for months until they kissed in front of me).
I can see Goth and Rose as a thing. They have the same snarky intelligent mind-frame that really compliments each other. If Goth can get her own head out of her ass, they might finally start to turn friendly.
I could see Dave and John being shipped together, but I don’t know if I want to commit to it. I like seeing them more as platonic pals than anything romantic.
Nepeta and Karkat could be cute together (an angry and fluffy kitty combo). But there isn’t enough evidence for me to support it.
Hell, I can definitely see John’s Dad and Rose’s Mom be a couple as well. They had a nice little romantic moment on the ship out there.
I can also say what my NOTP is: E and Gamzee. Nope. No No. Do not want. And yet….. I know there is fanfiction exactly about the roleplay that I just read, or something similar. AND YET….. I am, for some reason, morbidly curious as to what that entire thing would read as.
Personally I have an “anything goes” kind of shipping mentality. When your first fandom/intro to fanfiction is Hetalia where everyone is shipped together, you don’t have strict stigma to shipping. As long as it is a good story, I can see it.
But if there are any particular ships you want my opinion on, send it to my ask. I’ll let you know what I think of it.
