-Sol x Ky (SolKy) and Dizzy x Ky (DizzyKy)

Polyamorous Ky, NO romantic stuff between Sol and Dizzy.

I genuinely love both these Ships so much? Like SolKy got HISTORY but DizzyKy did actually get fleshed out very nicely. And yeah I actually can’t choose between them, I like them quite equally. Hate that a bunch of people seem to pit these two Ships against each other fr.

Listen man you’ve SEEN the homoerotic SolKy art, I stand by Dizzy is NOT stupid, she’d have to know and wouldn’t have married Ky if she wasn’t ok with it. Also she’s the goddess of compassion and love obvi she knows the forms of polyamory or at least does not feel the need to conform to societal standards.

I feel some people might be creeped out by me liking both but I am firmly in the camp of “I DO NOT see Sol as Dizzy’s Father at all and question if there is even a biological connection?” I’ve seen a lot of people throw around “Aria Pregnant Pre Justice” but that is a theory not canon (and incorrectly sourced on the wiki BTW!) and I am very bitter about it because when I asked online people kept pointing me to that theory as if it was confirmed (my Sis deep dived the wiki for whatever reason when I told her and she was malding on how it was sourced).

I mean,,, I do REALLY feel like they’re trying to pray away the gay and say “Sol is only around the Kiske family because Dizzy is daughter” when that has not been the case at all (it was the blond bitch, also Sol is Sin’s adoptive FATHER in canon sooo). Like making Sol and Ky in-laws doesn’t make any of their interactions less homoerotic, it just makes it weird (Sailor Moon’s “Cousins” echos in the distance). So I’m throwing away the in-laws and Sol-Dizzy-Father-Daugther relationship for my own sanity, okay? I mean it was played as gag in Xrd and Sol and Dizzy really don’t have any relationship/interactions to speak of so I did not expect them to try and double down on it.

I think Sol and Ky would be under the misimpression that they have to break their thing off when Ky and Dizzy get together. And it takes Dizzy a while to notice they’ve had that misconception. Like Ky would never cheat on Dizzy and would genuinely get on his hands and knees to beg for her forgiveness if he ever even thought he crossed that line. Which would probably be how she finds out honestly, Sol and Ky have a moment and then Ky immediately profusely apologizes to Dizzy and she’s just like “yeah I know?” Then she gives the “you thought I didn’t know?” And she’s explains she believes in more than society’s narrow view of what love can be.

BTW I think Ky is so sincere in his love towards Dizzy the “moment” Sol and Ky have wouldn’t even have to be a physical one. The first second Ky feels like it’s emotional cheating he would come clean and apologize to Dizzy. I feel like Ky would have a lot of angst simply not knowing what Polyamory is and “how the hell can he love Dizzy and ‘betray’ her this way?” Meanwhile Dizzy has always been slightly outside society's “normal”. At this point she’s learned to accept herself and that what society considers “normal” isn’t always what’s best or right. I also feel Sol is the one constantly trying to distance himself because he does care about Ky and until Strive basically still believes himself “Guilty” and a bad influence. So he has his own hang ups about their relationship that basically boils down to thinking Dizzy is better for Ky than him. We do see by Xrd/Strive Sol has kinda accepted this family wants him around and will not leave.

If you noticed that I don’t yap about them here despite me saying Ky is my favorite um… let’s just say… my thoughts towards him lean… a little… not safe for the blog… (insert keep breeding that twink meme here lmao-)

BTW Dizzy is canonically the stricter parent and bosses Ky around (though to be fair I think it’s Ky values her opinion and he (likes it) likes her in charge). She’s very much a “won’t start a fight but WILL finish it” and I love that about her character so much (I’m winning). Like don’t take Dizzy’s pacifism/kindness for weakness. But yes I am picky on their dynamic being DizzyKy not KyDizzy (I love Top Dizzy Bottom Ky SO MUCH YOU HAVE NO IDEA). Same with it being SolKy and NOT KySol. Like let the guy who always has to be strong and a leader (Ky) take a break and relax in the arms of the people he trusts to care for him and be in control (so Dizzy and Sol).

-Romeo (Bedman) x Sin

I see a lot of people put it SinBed but personally I think BedSin (ie for those not familiar with the name order thing Sin bottoms (he gets it from Ky-). but later down the road my babies are too young rn. Btw the name order thing is more about dynamics NOT cause of heteronormativity roles but just in general ok? I know some people are bitches when you care about name order but it has nothing to do with “who is the man and who is the women” (ew) but a bunch of smaller implied HCs).

Look I don’t 100% know where this one came from so maybe it’s lit crack but I REALLY like their dynamic. Romeo’s technical genius but social fumbling and Sin’s optimism and emotional intelligence (I will die on the hill defending my boy’s emotional intelligence). The wording is escaping me here but I feel they would actually interact with each other head on, like a lot of people talk down to both of them so the fact they don’t do that with each other and take each other seriously would be a big point. Also I think they’re in the same mental age category and both having non-typical life circumstances.

Sin keeps dodging love interests and acquiring sisters instead and I LOVE IT. Like El and Ram were def introduced with the potential of maybe one of them being a love interest but I think Arc Systems realized both; people like the sibling dynamics better and that would’ve made this family tree even worse. Also everyone thought Unika was gonna be a love interest, and let me tell you as someone heavily into Persona who hates how they shoehorn every new girl as a love interest instead of fleshing her out, I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN THE UNIKA WAS REVEALED AS SIN’S SISTER. But this does mean Sin is surrounded by beautiful women (who he is related to and friends with) so the mental image of people seeing that but then Sin introducing this wet cat of a redditor Romeo as his boyfriend just… makes me laugh ngl.

Also ok (counting El and Ram as Sin’s adoptive sisters here) having collectively 4 younger sisters is funny to me. I’m going with “reviving Romeo” nonsense and my “Unika Is My OC AU” so saying originally Deliah becomes friends with El, Ram, and Sin and that is how they all know each other.

Deliah and them end up becoming absolute besties because all being kids with unusual powers and life circumstances they get along great. Deliah also sometimes helps tutor Sin (knowing something and being able to teach it are two different skills and let’s just say it’s pretty obvious Sol sucks at teaching). So of course when Romeo comes back he hangs around both to spend time with Deliah and “evaluate” who she’s hanging out with. And then he begrudgingly becomes friends with them too because Sin will become friends with anyone. The actual romance is very slow burn because y'know, they’re at the ages where it would be. It starts off as a crush Romeo is desperately trying to deny and Sin finding him really cool to hang out with.

But no, I do need you to understand how slow burn this is. First Sin and Deliah become friends, which means Deliah also becomes friends with Ram and El. The four of them are a friend group for a while before Unika is born (Unika is my OC AU), she hangs around with the four of them cause it’s her older siblings and Deliah. When Unika is like 10-ish appearance wise (so like roughly 2) is when the whole “reviving Romeo” AU I have happens. Romeo then starts having out with Deliah and because they're besties (I want them to be besties so bad) also Sin, Ram, and El. Unika is past getting her memories back (again my AU I have posted elsewhere), which would be her being roughly 6 is around the time Sin and Romeo have started hanging out more by themselves and are developing mutual crushes. Basically I want them to be friends for a long time first.

Though Sin is not nearly as overprotective as Romeo is about his Sisters, Sin is very aware that is because Romeo and Deliah did not have a support system pre Anji and Baiken while Sin does and is therefore not as worried.

ALSO Romeo and Sin are both directly tied to some of the deepest/main story lore? Romeo powers are so directly connected to backyard fuckery and Sin being Ky, Dizzy, and Sol’s first child like,,, they have so much potential for expansion upon the main story with both of them,,, the dramatic plotlines that could be written,,, (yes I do have an idea for Deliah Revives Romeo and We Finally See Sin’s Dragon Install AU”).

Also just BTW I am VERY maternal towards this group (Sin, Romeo, Ram, El, Deliah, and Unika) but particularly incredibly Sin and Unika. It’s also where I am the pickiest in fandom opinions. Basically it’s where I am the fastest to avoid following someone if I don’t like how they characterize Sin or Unika. Like I am, in general, very picky and opinionated BUT a VERY FIRM believer fanwork can be WHATEVER you want canon and popular opinions on it be damned. I don’t believe in censorship or policing others' work (hell no) but I do believe in tagging so it reaches the right audience.

-Leo x Giovanna

I legitimately am probably the only person who ships this LMAO. Look in Strive it’s canon that both Gio and Ram have a crush on Leo. HOWEVER Ram feels mentally young to me (like heavily) so her crush on Leo to me feels like “first guy she thinks is cool besides her family” so like when kids get a crush on their kindergarten teacher. Ram would hear Gio also likes Leo would feel the need to “stand her ground” for all of five seconds before seeing Gio’s dog. Then Ram would be like “her dog is awesome Leo you should marry her” lmao.

But basically I feel Leo and Gio would be opposites attract. Like Leo is very organized but definitely too tense where Giovanna is a lot more laid back. But they both at the end of the day deeply value those they work with/are close. So they have very different methods but the same goals. Leo would be awkward at first (zero relationship experience) and be very formal in trying to “court” her. But I think Giovanna would actually be kinda touched how serious he is about it and how much thought he put into it before getting him to loosen up and relax.

-Daryl x Happy Chaos

Let’s just keep going with the kings shall we? People called this one RoyalBlue.

Yes like everyone else who ships them it was their interactions in Strive that got me on board.

My personal headcanon is that Chaos REALLY liked that Daryl just… talked to him like a person and wasn’t scared or overly reverent. But Chaos himself doesn’t fully get that and just thinks Daryl was “interesting and fun” so goes to bug/hang out with him post Strive. Daryl agrees at first solely for the good of Illyria, he figured better than fighting would be to keep an eye on Chaos and get information on him. These meetings slowly turn from interrogations to dates. And before Daryl knows it he’s in love with a criminal.

I am very much on the “after a heart to heart the three kings realize they have more in common then they thought” because yes they all have an inferiority complex to each other. BUT I think if they talked it out they would really get along and then their relationship is something like brothers. So you could imagine Daryl is worried about telling Leo and Ky about his relationship. Ky kiiiinda thinks he might not have any right to judge (every member of his family has been an enemy at some point) but Leo is worried about Daryl’s safety.

Also ye Happy Chaos would call Daryl “Pudding” as a pet name.

-May x Bridget

MayBuri! Listen… I do think UniBuri but because I am on my “Unika Is My OC AU” bullshit, Unika is baby and her crush on Bridget becomes more admiration. Unika is 100% a lesbian though and I love that for her.

I do think fandom nowadays has an unhealthy obsession with proving their ship canon or at least a canon bias. I think it has to be with kids being socialized online mostly and it’s just not good for them. People have forgotten crack ships and fandom as transformative work and fan work just being… whatever you want! And we’re worse as a fandom for it honestly. Look I love explaining why I ship something and what in canon I base it off of but it doesn’t have to be.

So um that tangent aside May and Bridget DO have history and good interactions (you’ve seen the art of May holding Bridget’s ass) but I did initially ship them because they both wear hoodies LMAO!

Also just,,, May’s crush on Johnny being her misreading familiar love for romantic love due to both her being a lesbian and Johnny being the guy she’s closest too plus her fear of abandonment due to not having a blood related family, just makes it make sense and be less creepy.

-Johnny x Testament

Let’s continue with the pirates! The ship name is JohnnyTest… cracks me up.

The biggest reasoning behind this is I feel they’re both similar people due to the fact I see them both as Dizzy’s parents. Like Testament took care of Dizzy for the beginning of her life (and I have so many questions about Dizzy’s beginnings that I will never get answers too…) and was basically her guardian. And then Johnny took her in and he is already the adoptive father of all the jellyfish pirates (he has 12? Daughters? I know they are all named after the months but I forget if there’s a girl for December or if Dizzy is the December girl. Oh also I think I’m accidentally counting the cat but fuck that’s a kid too to me).

I feel like it would actually take forever for Johnny and Tes to get together. Like they’d fool around and both like each other but have too many internalized trust issues on both sides to go for it. Cue Dizzy playing match maker LMAO.

Also ok I’ll have to find which fanfic said it (I’m sorry I don’t remember!!!) but someone said “Johnny the chronic bad bitch fumbler and Testament the baddest bitch there is” and that lives rent free in my head I love it.

-Robo-Ky x Venom

Do I even have to say anything? Their canon is a gourmet meal your honor.

Also they have some of the best fanfic. Not to diss other GG ships fic of course!!! Other ships have some divine fic too!!! But somehow basically every RoboVenom fic is a banger and a percentage that high of peak fic is impressive.

(Tho fanfic is for the fan’s pleasure and doesn’t even have to be good of course!!!)

-Anji x Baiken (or is it Baiken x Anji… I ain’t picky)

Do I even have to say anything? x2

BTW only one here where I don’t care about the order, and I know I will get shit for caring about order of names dynamics,,,

I do CONSTANTLY think about how Anji picking up Deliah but Baiken being closest to her is literally just “Dad who said he didn’t want the damn cat” dynamic… I love it so much.

-Millia x Elphet

This one might actually be 100% crack and I’m okay with that. It’s not a fully formed thought so thus why it’s going lower even though I have more to say than some of the others.

Millia deserves someone who makes her smile and realize life can be full of joy. And I think Millia would actually be good at being dramatic and romantic (she gets symbolism well and would put that in her attempts and it makes Elphet swoon). Takes El a while to get over her blindness towards Lesbainism but once she does, it’s just another layer of intrigue for her.

Taking a note from Edgerunners, I have this image in my head where there’ll be an exact moment when Millia and El are running away from something and Millia looks at El laughing while they do so. And you can pinpoint the exact moment Millia realizes how El makes her feel and that’s when she falls in love.

-Asuka x I-No x Raven?

So this one is not a fully formed opinion. But like the “That Man” Crew ™ is a polycule to me and I don’t know how to explain it fully. Strive is just that meme “of polyamorous marriage should be legal because of all the reasons but also cause I wanna see a polyamorous divorce” and I-No did not get the Tome Of Creation in the divorce.
