Game of Thrones 8x02 - Jonerys

That crypt scene all together had me like:

You ever write or have an idea for a ship and think “Boy this would probably do well if I changed the names to the popular ship?”

That’s me staring at my saved drafts lol.

Do you ever remember that you probably shipped someone as a child? Even though you had no idea that shipping exists?

Y'all ever get into a fandom just because of a ship??

can’t believe i have to go to work when all i want to do is think about the relationship dynamics i have made up between fictional characters

The strange curse of being a geography major and seeing commentary about “shipping” on this site only to realize it has nothing to do with containerization and the transformation of the global supply chain…

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW PLEASED I AM THAT WE’RE ALL NOW TALKING ABOUT CONTAINER SHIPS 

As a fanfiction writer who writes shipping fics, whenever someone tells me they like how I wrote a dynamic first I die because praise is the lifeblood of the writer I want to tell them thanks, it’s the aro. I genuinely think being aro gives you a boost when it comes to fic writing. Not experiencing romantic attraction forces you to deconstruct how a relationship works without relying on just feelings.

And every time I’ve read a shipping fic by an another aro, it was written wonderfully. Basically, if it manages to sound romantic to an aro, it’s guaranteed to be romantic.

Ah yes, if it isn’t my copying meachanism ship *proceeds to look at two people that have so much angst going on*

Sir, this is my emotional support top

oh my god? the x files-fandom was the fandom that invented the word ‘shipping’? JESUS CHRIST I LOVE Y’ALL

Yes, back in the early days, there were two camps of fans: “Relationshippers” (people all about the MSR) and the “NoRomos” (people all about the platonic partnership.) Relationshippers was eventually shortened to “shippers.”

The X-Files popularity just happened to parallel the birth of the internet. Philes took it by storm with the creation of fan forums, chat groups, and hundreds of websites devoted to the show, characters, and the actors. :)

The X-Files fandom also coined the term UST (Unresolved Sexual Tension) as a fanfic descriptor. :D Fandom history is pretty neat.

Man X-Files was my intro to fandom and fic and it shaped me so much

You know this post?

It’s true! But the corollary is, “And if not Star Trek, probably X-Files.”
