OOC: Is your character a shipper?

[missprimavera.livejournal.com]

Explanation: This comes out of some discussions with Ryuuji-mun and Terry-mun (and an IC discussion between Ryuuji and Terry which greatly amused me).

We've talked about the hogwarts_hocus ships we muns like. But what about our characters? Are they shippers? Oddly enough, some of mine are!

Stephen is a Ryuuji/Nightwing shipper. He's convinced that Ryuuji and Nightwing will one day wed for real, even though Ryuuji insists that it was all a plot by the French slash cultists.
He is also a Nny/Teatime shipper in that the very notion of Susan/Teatime would make him flip out.
And he is claiming to be a Gin/Byakuya shipper, even though he isn't one ;)

Paul Atreides is a Ryuuji/Terry shipper and is holding himself back from quoting many aphorisms on True Love only because it seems to make Terry go o_O. He's also a River/Stephen shipper.

Cooper, I'm beginning to think, is a Lupin/Jack Sparrow shipper! That pirate rum... And it's an h_h canonical fact that Cooper is a Real!Ron/Puppet!Ron shipper.

Do any of your characters have favorite ships? Or ships that they oppose?

No, I don't do anything special for Easter. Why do you ask? ;)

River reciprocates Tonks' solidarity, in the "I don't know you very well but since we're in a similar situation I support you because of that." She's also hoping that Ryuuji and Nightwing will be happy together. And, of course, Simon/Kaylee and Zoe/Wash from her own world (Mal has pissed her off enough with his interference in her love-life that she isn't thinking about Mal/Inara except to think that she might have to give him a dose of his own medicine somehow!), and Harry/Ginny--- she'd be more than happy to continue giving Ginny advice on *cough* leaving your mark on a loved one, etc.

She used to ship Teatime/Susan and Nny/Devi--- one, when she first met Nny, he was all angsty over Devi and she wanted to see that work out happily, two, she really likes Devi even though she doesn't know her that well, and three, she thinks it would have made life simpler between her and Stephen! However, given the falling-out between her and Nny, she's now adopted a position of Swiss neutrality on the subject.

Charles has remained oblivious to most of the shipping, and his one close encounter of the shippy kind was River/Stephen, which, um, didn't work too well, at least from his POV. ;) And he agrees completely with Hawkeye--- likes the man more than he'd admit (unless he's drunk, probably ;) ) but it's totally platonic.

Say, that reminds me ... Irulan wants to play with get to know Dr Winchester a bit better -- mind if she harasses owls him?

OHSQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! Please, by all means! I'd been meaning to get back to that--- thanks for bringing it up! *evil laugh at Charles' expense*

Bwahahahah. Excellent. Irulan needs to get out to play. Post coming soon.

Ginny thinks Ginny and River should get together sometime soon, to girl talk.

:D River would love to come out and play!

That said, that pesky thing called real life is seriously interfering with my ability to keep up with threads at the moment--- is it okay if we hold off for a little while (or have a thread with a lot of lag time)? I've got a couple of other threads going and I'm trying not to make "appointments" I can't keep or screw up anyone else's RP'ing because of my own schedule! :)

Ginny doesn't mind waiting, at all. RL was hitting me pretty hard last week and this weekend, as well. I just didn't want her neglecting her friend, and they have a lot to chat about since they last talked, I think. ;) Just send Ginny and owl when things slow down a bit and she'll be ready for a chat.

Thanks--- whew! And likewise about not wanting River to neglect her friend, either! River will definitely send her an owl!
