@D S9guy, Hehe, I knew that title reminded me of something. I always loved that skit.

I actually really like Jaspearl. If everyone on tumblr is gonna get on my case about shipping Jaspis, Jaspearl is the next best thing.

I'm inclined to say anyone making a fuss about what other people are shipping should probably be finding something more productive to do with their time.

I derive some genuine interest in arguing why my ships are good, but too often the discussion turns nasty when I'm just looking for some genuine character interaction discussions and not to hate something else arbitrarily.

Shipping is a foul practice and should be outlawed. Joking here, but not entirely...

Edit: But even ignoring that I do have to say actually wanting Jasper and Lapis together raises some red flags for me... I'm actually a bit surprised by that Smokey.

I have a friend who ships Japis, and he outright doesn't like Jasper or think she can be redeemed. He just thinks it'd be a good relationship if they make it healthy.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

[up][up][up]They're not pro for it to happen on the show, so that's fine.

Is like a joke ship...serious.

Shipping characters is fine, shipping wars and cultish obsession with them are not. We should learn to be more like Japanese fandoms in that regard. For all the other problematic stuff they might engage in, picking fights with one another over ships is something I have yet to see.

[down] AU, what-if scenarios, headcanon character development, crackshipping, pure aesthetics, as a writing challenge to see if one can come up with scenarios in which it'll work, etc.

For me it's usually alt universes where they have a different history, or hypothetical futures after tooons of character development and talking things through.

I used to ship Tyzula, I can see the appeal of romance being a theoretical outgrowth of redemption in spite of my better judgement.tongue

Eh, well I guess I can understand since one of the few ships I do support has one of the parties already having done something super skeevy in another relationship without any real regret (because they are completely incapable of regretting their actions).

I like jaspearl and jaspis, jaspnet is another good Jasper ship, and then there's the OT3 potentials with jaspearlnet and jaspearlapis...

Well, jaspis I don't really ship much after "Alone at Sea" but I still gotta reblog that fan art when I sees it because the aesthetic is just amazing.

Jasper x Eyeball is probably the best Jasper ship at this point.

And tyzula is good. Though I was rooting for maizula way back when for a time in Book 2 while the show was still airing. That ship sunk hard.

Shipping characters is fine, shipping wars and cultish obsession with them are not. We should learn to be more like Japanese fandoms in that regard. For all the other problematic stuff they might engage in, picking fights with one another over ships is something I have yet to see.

At least we don't argue over who tops and who bottoms in specific relationships, of all things.

Shipping is fine for the most part. Some people are too serious about shipping. I remember when Naruto ended Masashi Kishimoto received death threats from Sakura x Naruto shippers because Naruto ended up with Hinata.

Shipping wars should not involve threats of any kind. I hope the shipping fractions in the SU fandom don't go to war like some of the other fandoms. I am little worried about Amedot vs. Lapidot it gets heated sometimes on tumblr. Some Amedot fans have started using the Lapidot instead of the anti-lapidot tag to trash Lapidot.

edit: I like Jasper and Big Ruby. That's a lot of love and admiration for Jasper.

[up][up]I see 20x more "why not both???" or "stop the hate!" posts in the amedot tag than actual anti-amedot stuff. Of course I also block people all the time so. Probably just a few bad apples.

Honestly, Tumblr is just not a great place for shipping discussions, and the hate multiple sides of ship wars fling at each other just makes people in more reasonable places like here not want to discuss shipping. Makes me kinda sad.

Tumblr is a horrible place to discuss a lot of thing.
