Ship Types I Would Like to Play


Pretty much, this meme is what it says on the tin. Often times, when we want to ship, we have a specific itch we want to scratch: a certain dynamic, a kind of ship, or a scenario we want to play. A general shipping meme is too vague, and you can't get exactly what you want without seeming oddly stifling.

This place is basically a "kink" meme, but with...shipping kinks rather than smut ones? Something like that? It's hard to explain, but you know what it is. Here, you can make connections with those who may want the same scenarios and dynamics you do.

A few general guidelines:
  • Anon commenting is on, IP logging off. Don't fuck this one up.
  • Try to keep things to specific TYPES of ships or dynamics, not specific ships themselves. But, of course, I can't stop you.
  • Please be respectful of everybody.

- Any kind of personality differences, a preferences for mean guy/sweet girl or stoic-serious dude/playful gal. Tsunderes of either gender are good, though.
- Bulma/Vegeta-type pairings in which there's a villain and a hero who fall into a comfortable but crazy relationship, with the villain "reforming." Kind of.
- Age differences
- Incest
- Knight/royalty oh god knight/royalty PLEASE. Or bodyguard/guarded. Bonus for the two characters being raised together or nearly together, with the knight or bodyguard having their duty to protect this person drilled into their head since a young age.
- Guys teasing the girl they like it's second grade.
- Codependency
- Perfect waifu types
- A couple taking care of each other
- Experienced guy/inexperienced girl, but no creepy fixation on virginity
- Childhood friends, especially realizing your childhood friend is hot
- The inexperienced half of the pairing being the dominant or more active part of it.
- Size difference. Huge guy/little girl is a perpetual favorite, but lately I've been hankering for tiny guy/big strong woman who could crush him with her thighs.
- Shy love between quiet, unassuming people
- Two nerds/awkward people
- Lots of denial
- Interspecies
- Moeblobs in general
- Tough girl/cute guy
- Second love, aka one of the people in the pairing has been with someone before and the other feels they can't measure up. Bonus points if the previous pairing ended badly or the significant other died.
- Abled-bodied person with someone who has a disability or adaptive gear of some sort, from glasses to a wheelchair.
- Getting over trauma/being nursed back to health
- Stockholm syndrome
- Domesticity
- Different body types (especially chubby/buff)
- Homestuck troll/humans, cross-canon
- Cultural differences
- Honest girl/playboy
- Two sweeties together
- A heterosexual relationship where one of the parties is a crossdresser, but still straight or bisexual.

Goodness, anon, hello. Stoic-serious dude/playful gal, age differences, knight/royalty, couples taking care of each other, experience difference without virginity fixation, inexperienced half taking the lead, size difference, shy quiet love, second love, working with a disability, domesticity, these are all things that are particularly relevant to my interests, though probably not all at once, haha.

I've got this stoic paragon of knighthood to bring to the table, how's that gel with what you've got?

There's a couple one I'll be interesting. But I specially wouldn't mind this as an AU or her role as Servant with Saber as the knight.

I like sickly codependent relationships that are venomous for both the people involved and those around them. Especially of this variety, but not necessary: already insane guy falls in love with a relatively 'normal' guy who ends up becoming insane right along with him, because of codependent reasons. They fall in love -- 'normal' guy knows it's not exactly 'normal' -- and insane/p much evil guy realizes he's just found someone he loves, so there won't be any letting go. A constant need to breathe/eat/sleep/fuck the other, to the point it interferes with 'normal' guy's 'normal' life to a point where all of his friends urge him to end things. I'm big into violent fun sex, my kink list is endless: consenting bloodplay knifeplay and fucked up sexual acts are a-ok with me. I imagine there'll be a lot of nearly-public sex because, again, both emotionally and sexually codependent. They can both be teenagers or teenager/older male for either end of the spectrum or just adult males. Bonus points if 'normal' guy is ridiculously cute personality wise and maybe bit of an outcast/awkward, and retains that with his new boyfriend even though he's going head first off the other end.

this sounds a lot like the main pairing in one of my canons, anon. Which is to say, I am all for it.

This hits a lot of my different wants. Do you mind sharing your mediums/characters?

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
I play from anime, video games, comics, cartoons, live action shows/movies. I don't mind playing pairings from different ones as well. Is there any in particular you prefer? I can list off characters from whatever you like.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Different anon from above, but which cartoons do you play from?

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 06:34 am (UTC)(link)

Naruto, Haruhi Suzumiya, K, Zetsuen no Temptest, Detective Conan, Magi... There are others but I'll be kinda rusty with them.

I'd be really interested in playing a couple that constantly argued but still loved each other and playing out a relationship where one was really flirtatious and the other was shy when it came to things like that. I mostly play with a female character, but if you don't have a problem with that, I'd like to play with you, Anon!

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 01:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey! I'm good with that. I'm good with either m/f or f/f so whatever you prefer. I could also do m/m but yes!!

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright then! I don't really have a preference when it comes to m/f or f/f, but I'm fine with both, so it's all up to you!

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm also good with either or, I don't mind. :)

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright then! Do you have an account I can PM then to get things off the ground?

Anon, who do you play from K and Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu?

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Mainly Mikuru but I can try Haruhi. And for K I can do Neko or Yata.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-30 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
Very interested in:

• Possessive and jealous couples
• Their personalities clash/they argue a lot but they're still lovey dovey
• Secret relationships
• Pretend/arranged relationships but they gradually fall in love
• Both are really shy and awkward
• One is very flirtatious while the other is easily flustered


How do you feel about OC's?

Have two longish-term shipping plots! Both are slow-burn romance and likely to be sweet but emotional.

- I have a character with a supernatural illness/condition that gives him all sorts of body issues. He doesn't even like to take his shirt off around other people and he thinks sex is out of the question. I really want to play out a relationship in which he can learn to open up. It would be cool if the other character also had emotional issues to work through. I've never managed to play out a romance with him but I think it would be M/F. I'd do an M/M relationship too, but I'd have to factor in the fact that he's from a homophobic society.

- I have a character who was born psychic (he has limited mind-reading capabilities but he doesn't know how to turn them off), and then became blind as an adult. He doesn't tell people that he's psychic because people don't like to be around someone who is always hijacking their thoughts. But now that he's gone blind he has to use his psychic skills to navigate the world more. I'd really like to play out a relationship dealing with his disabilities. I'd especially like if he could be in a relationship with another psychic or physically disabled character. Maybe they can learn from each other. The character is canonly straight but I could do M/M as well.

/slides in here with unused account because i don't have a sock

I'd be interested in playing a damaged girl off your first guy. Mine has war trauma and a dead first love to contend with along with a minor scar of her own. It's likely not as bad as what your guy has but it's enough to make her self-conscious about intimacy. A major part of her personality is flirting for self-gain. Once she's done getting what she needs from a guy, she often leaves him cold because she doesn't want to get too close to anyone. I have a lot of fun defrosting her as an ice queen. Having her commiserate with someone similarly damaged could help things along. She's in her early 20's but mature. Medium is anime. Disabilities are my jam as well since my character looks at them less as defects and more as proof that the other character is stronger than she is to be able to bear that sort of burden. Feel free to PM me. :)

I'd really like to play out this sort of villain apprenticeship storyline where one criminally oriented character takes another canonically non-villainous character under his/her tutelage. Think Stoker in that there was always something dark in the other character all along that the villain brings out so no purely innocent types! Doesn't have to be about murder or killing. Could be partnership in cons, could be in political scheming.

I play from pretty much all mediums and I'm open to m/f, f/f and m/m. I can play either role.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-28 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
What canons do you play from?

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
just asking and it's alright if you turn me down but would you be interested in yaqut/kougyoku?

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
ack! this posted itself at the wrong place, sorry!

(Anonymous) 2014-03-30 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
i'd like to play anything reminiscent from a shoujo manga storyline. one idea that i have is a slow-burn romance, where they argue and fight and bicker with a lot of namecalling and insults thrown around. both of them have their own issues to deal with and their arguments are basically defense mechanisms to prevent the other from prying or getting involved in it. but they can't help but get attached to each other anyway, so even though they're fighting, they have these affectionate and/or ust moments.

i play mostly from anime and manga and lean towards m/f but willing to do m/m as well.
