thirsty thirst

[animen]

character(s) i'm thirsty for

don't be ashamed. we've all got them, characters we just...man. they're great. love them. chef's kiss. couldn't be more perfect. of course, we don't always have a reasonable excuse to tag them, and that doesn't quench our thirst.

so why wait for a reason? just admit to your character crush! whether they're a castmate, crosscanon who'd be a perfect fit, or a total rando that wouldn't meet your blorbo in a thousand years, there's no more need to vaguepost on rpanons about characters you wish would notice you.

tell us here. this? this is a judgement free zone. be as thirsty as you want on main. and maybe, just maybe, your prince/ss will come.

Miya Osamu || Haikyuu!!

[osamusubi]

There's this regular at my onigiri shop, a guy who is polite and professional and clearly overworked. We don't live in the same city, but he comes down to Osaka a lot for MSBY games. Everytime I see him, I wanna feed him, take him apart, and get him to finally relax.

[phyt]

[ oh. ]

Whoever this guy is, he's real lucky to catch the eye of someone like you.

[osamusubi]

You think so? [Osamu's geniunely surprised, and sheepishly plays with the brim of his cap.] Not sure I've got much to offer, let alone enough to make other people jealous.

[phyt]

[ oh no, cute... ]

Well — I may not know you, but the fact that you notice this person is overworked and wish to take care of them is a lot in my opinion.

[ haruto's bar is in hell, though, tbf. ]

[osamusubi]

Ah, well. If you'd seen him, you'd understand. He's a manga editor, so he never gets a break.

You seem real easy to please, gotta say.

[phyt]

Ah, yeah... The deadlines for those kind of jobs is pretty intense.

[ pink colors his cheeks at that assessment, though. ]

I've been told that a lot.

[osamusubi]

[Osamu smiles. This guy is pretty cute, after all.]

Maybe ya should raise your standards a bit. Takin' care of the people ya care about is basic decency.

[phyt]

Yeah... I've been told that too.

[ he shrugs. ]

For me, it means a lot to even get that far. That's why I hope next time that man comes by, you tell him how you feel. I bet he'll appreciate it.

[osamusubi]

[He ends up fidgeting with his cap again. The idea of confronting Akaashi about his crush is overwhelming. But this guy has a point, too; everyone wants to feel treasured.]

Good advice. What's your name?

[phyt]

Oh — Haruto! Sorry, I just butted into your business and didn't even bother to introduce myself. I promise I'm usually more polite than that...

[osamusubi]

No worries. Nice to meet ya, Haruto. I'm Osamu.

[phyt]

Nice to meet you too, Osamu.

[osamusubi]

Since you've heard me out in venting about my feelin's and all, how about I treat you to some food? I make a mean onigiri, you know.

[phyt]

[ because the universe has decided he needs to be more embarrassed, haruto's stomach grumbles in response. he laughs, hand in his hair. ]

Well - I won't say no if you insist... I ran out of my apartment late for work so I skipped breakfast.

[osamusubi]

[Osamu grins. This guy is seriously cute.]

Alright, then I'm insistin'. I definitely can't function without at least three meals a day. What's your favorite?

[phyt]

Oh, man... It's a toss-up between tuna mayo and okaka.

But — I'm feeling adventurous today. [ clearly so, having approached the man like he had. ] Why don't you make me your favorite to eat or make?

[osamusubi]

[Osamu grins at Haruto.] Sounds like you've got some traditional tastes. I think I've got an idea.

[He sets about putting together the onigiri. Finely chopping some spring onion, mixing it with tuna, and folding it into fresh, warm rice.]

Tuna and spring onion. It's my brother's favorite.

[phyt]

[ haruto watches with rapt attention. he's clearly in the presence of a pro here! when he's given the finished product, he spares a moment to thank osamu before helping himself to a big bite. he demolishes near half the onigiri in one go, and after some thoughtful chewing his expression lights up. ]

Hey — that's really good! Your brother has great taste.

I may have binge read the comic y/c is from lol

[osamusubi]

[It's always rewarding to watch someone enjoy the food he's made. Haruto's big bite feels like a compliment to Osamu, along with the bright look on his face.

And then he has to go and say a thing like that, making Osamu scowl for a brief moment.]

Don't let him hear you say that, he'll be insufferable. Even more than usual. But ya really like it, huh? I have enough to make ya another one, if ya want.

omg 👀

[phyt]

[ haruto has to laugh at the sudden shift in osamu's expression. he's an only child, so he'll never fully understand the dynamics of a sibling relationship, but he knows enough through osmosis to know that osamu's feelings towards his brother are not uncommon. he finishes off the rest of his onigiri in two bites, reaching up to wipe at any errant pieces of rice that stick around his lips. ]

I'd love another — but I'll have to insist you let me pay for it this time.

I love haruto so much ;a;

[osamusubi]

[The corners of his mouth quirk up in a pleased smile.]

If you're gonna insist, then I guess I don't have a choice. One more onigiri comin' right up.

[And again, he prepares it with deft hands, even faster this time since most of the prep work is already done.]

metalocalypse people pls come to toki

[dethangel]

not even gonna lean all casually on the wall about it, i'm soooooo thirsty for castmates. special shoutouts to skwisgaar, but the whole enchilada. shipping, smut, extremely serious story rp while we wait for the movie, palling around and being stupid, let's do it all.

kaveh | genshin impact

[merlot]

i'd love an alhaitham to psl with! i feel like that's the obvious one.

outside of that, i'd love to play kaveh against a nyx ulric! in general, i'm very open to crosscanon as a whole, though!

i've got preferences and a wishlist in his journal to jumpstart possible psls.

Marik Ishtar | Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters || CW: Incest

[thetombkeeper]

I'm a shameful mythshipper (Marik/Ishizu) so I would absolutely adore a SIS-TEHRR to explore that particular dynamic with for post Season 3. He babygirl, you don't understand. Welcoming him back into the family, the two catching up over what they've missed since he left the tomb, comforting each other as Marik works through his traumas, Marik growing even more attached to her as time goes on, those sort of things. If you're wanting darker themes though I'm totally open to playing him from an earlier canon point.

I'd also be willing to try ruseshipping (Marik/Odion) from any canonpoint. Whether it's Marik being terrible and possessive with his brother pre/during Season 2 or him trying to make up for everything he's put him through post Season 3, I'm up for anything.

I play Marik from the 4KIDS dub but I'm absolutely fine playing against manga/sub versions of the characters and using their original names. It doesn't need to lead to romance/smut either and can just stay as gen if you'd prefer.

Due to the sensitive topic of my request, you're more than welcome to PM me rather than replying here if this is something you'd rather keep under wraps, if you are interested in the shipping aspect.

Yuri Tsukikage/Cure Moonlight | Heartcatch Precure

[flowerinthemoonlight]

I'd really like to play off of more castmates, but fellow Precure players are pretty hard to find. To the few people I found who played castmates and got the flaking treatment from me, I am so sorry.

As for cross-canon, I had some fantastic threads in the past with a K' from KOF. I don't know if anyone actively plays him, but if you do, please hit me up! I'm admittedly not the most familiar with the canon, but the character was fun and I'd be up for more.

[crescentpattern]

Kinda random, but I remember some threads we had a while back! So thought I'd say hi, anyway (I also used to play Cure Sunshine a million years ago, but not sure I have the journal anymore).

[flowerinthemoonlight]

Hey! I remember those threads, they were fun. You're always a joy to write with, even though I'll admit I'm usually canon-blind about your characters. (And I'm like 90% sure I found a Cure Sunshine player once, but I can't recall when that was.)

[crescentpattern]

Hey, no worries - you were also super fun to write with and I'd be happy to do something else (and maybe I can figure out a character you're not canonblind to) sometime.

I used to be curesunshine waaaay back when, but I deleted the journal a while back because I just hadn't touched it in a long time.

Kozakura | Otherside Picnic | OTA

[flatcola]

I would expect to see something from the 'lesbians vs creepypasta' series but I think the below-mid anime adaptation squashed a lot of potential interest. Anyways, if someone has a castmate who's been sitting dormant or w/e I'm in the middle of volume 5 of the LNs so. Hi?

Claire Bennet ∞ Heroes

[infinite1ups]

I meeeeean I say it every chance I get, but as far as canonmates go: Sylar. There just aren't many possible ships in Heroes canon for Claire that I actually like. (Love that Claire was confirmed bi, but hated Gretchen, lmao.)

Other than that, I'm always down for crosscanon ships so I'll just link my post here that has a handful of canons listed that particularly spark my interest.

Zelda | Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

[wiseprincess]

I'm open to any and all Zelda castmates (not just limited to TP). A certain blond swordsman would be especially loved for a slow burn romance PSL, wink wink, nudge nudge. No, Cloud, not you. Sorry.

In seriousness, crosscanon would also be fun. For one example, I'm not exactly in the know with Fire Emblem, but I know it's got a lot of angsty royals and that could probably mesh well with Zelda. Let me know if you're interested in any of the above.

Glenn Sparks | original character | ota

[reorienting]

[ooc: cw: character has body horror/tentacles and mild insect imagery. Glenn is an aimless planet-hopper just taking things one day at a time. Future plans? What are those?

[So, I'm seriously in love with Trigun Stampede and I wanna tag everyone I find who plays from that. No idea how CR will go with much of them but I'm super willing to find out with anyone who wants to give this young-looking/-minded old man a spin. I prefer ships/smut eventually but the long game isn't bad, either. Whether it turns wholesome or some sort of darker use/user is great by me. I'm not very good at writing fights, however, though I will try if it comes up.

[But I'm also happy to play against cross-canon and other OCs.]

becca ♠ original ♠ ota

[cafeultra]

i have lots of info on her journal and profile. she's not tied to any specific fandom but i think she can slot in pretty well anywhere, especially modern stuff, or anything with a supernatural or crime theme.

her taste is generally like... villains, killers, anyone with a dark side, edgy. she goes anywhere between "I can fix them" to "I want to be their special girl" to "I want to be terrible with them" or any combination of the three, lol.

canon characters i've shipped her with in the past (not on DW) or thought i might enjoy shipping her with: Kylo Ren, Peter Baelish (what? she has red hair), The Master, Homelander (I don't even know it just popped into my head when I was watching The Boys last summer???)... so like, idk characters along that vein i guess? i don't really watch horror movies but your standard horror villains, she'd love 'em. sad boys turned killer men? women who will step on her? she's ready.

that said, she'd also get along just fine with nice people. she's quite impressionable so maybe she needs a good influence. XD

jang hanseok | vincenzo

[devilspirit]

always, always craving threads with a vincenzo, especially of the fucked up shippy variety. i'm also after threads with chayoung (gen or ship) and myunghee (gen).

my biggest crosscanon wish is for hanseok to interact with his female counterpart, villanelle. let them be two wildly violent psychopathic peas in a pod. pls.

hit me up!!

chiaki nanami | danganronpa

[protect]

i am eternally thirsting for hinata & komaeda for nanami!! please give me my dr trio... i love them individually & as an ot3, and i am very happy to play either gen or shippy scenarios with either of them. she loves her boys.

i'm also open to other castmates since there was a lot of wasted potential for cast interactions in dr2, and i'm also open to crosscanon! i'd rather not jump into shipping with crosscanon since i'd like an idea of their dynamic first but i'm open to everything else.

Raven Beak | Metroid Dread

[chozowned]

Nintendo
Other Metroid characters are a shoe-in, of course. I would be interested in more interactions with Samus, or how a meeting with Ridley would have turned out.

Birds
Because I think it would be funny. Any avian themed character or birdlike alien (like Garrus from Mass Effect) is welcome.

Nintendo Birds
The venn diagram is surprisingly large. In particular I would be tickled by Revali or other Rito from the Zelda series, or Falco from Star Fox.

Barok van Zieks | The Great Ace Attorney

[reaperawman]

I have Barok here and possess an unfulfilled need to play him against other goths or death related characters. Hubert Fire Emblem. Thanatos Hadesgame. Alucard Castlevania. Really, any goth or reaper will do.

Juna Crawford | Trails series

[crossbells]

Now that I'm replaying the game again (now in NA), reviving this account for great justice. I'm craving some Trails character(s) for some fun shenanigans - even against someone from Calvard/Kuro(2) because I'm familiar with them. I will give my special love for any S.S.S. members or the new Class 7 students and everything including the kitchen sink for a Kurt Vander to gen/ship/smut with.

Side note, not really interested in shipping with Rean at all if that's any help. But gen with the Haha... is definitely loved!

genya safin | shadow & bone

[pigeonblood]

David! Matthias for a messy, maximum melodrama Hell gate AU. Inej and Mal for slave-slaying AU.

Also crosscanon, especially smart, hardworking characters with an adorably limited capacity for social warfare or subterfuge. Spock, Edgin, Xenk, Steven Grant, Frenchie, other such vibes!

fushiguro megumi ✴ jujutsu kaisen

[seaurchin]

Uhhh ... I've always wanted to playwith /ship with a Legosi from BEASTARS. Don't look at me or judge me.

It's also been a long time since I've played with a Sukuna and I would love to!

tom hanniger | my bloody valentine

[pickaxe]

[ this shithead. ]

Leon S Kennedy | Resident Evil

[needsabreak]

i'm definitely thirsty for a krauser, luis or chris to bounce off of. remake or original.

for a psl with chris, I'm good with post RE6/Vendetta (and probably Death Island after the end of the month and it's available to watch here T-T).

patrick from infinite darkness would also be fun but that's such a long shot hah

Dion Lesage | Final Fantasy XVI | m/m

[wyvernstail]

My kingdom for Terrence. But Joshua, Clive, Cid, Barnabas, Gav, Hugo, and others are welcome! Also, cross-canon is more than cool.

Ainz Ooal Gown - Overlord

[top_tier]

Castmates would be cool..but specifically, Albedo for ship/smut but only with Ainz. I don't usually care about "character bang character only", but her fierce loyalty and love for Ainz makes her unique and is ingrained in the very character. So it's just a rare preference that would be nice to play out.

I have a couple ideas to play around with, and there are always memes as well.
