So, remember how I made a big deal about not being into shipping and how I ship aaaaall the ships and I'm the sluggiest of slugs that needs development before I can even think very far into anything?

Well, I got that development. So's this post is to pimp the lovely people who've been sucker-punching me with the shipping feels, entirely against my wishes. (Not that I'm complaining). I know people will think these are crack, but they're basically canon to me at this point. DUN CURRRR.

MASHIN

fabulouslyfreshmako Triads, Triads, Triads. I have this massive thing for Triads/Yakuza/Boso and I cannot express how seriously, mind-blowing awesome it is that I have a brain-mate that's got the same interest. And then you drop this fish lorry's worth of bro-feels on top of all of that. How is that fair? We'll be an entire Johnny To movie ourselves. Yes, I need to get off my ass to fic and draw this asap. (Also you were the second person to actually speak to me. CRAZY.)

SHINSAMI

asami--sato Thank you for literally being the first canon character player to use my ask box when I first created my account and had no idea what I was doing. (Followed 2 hours later with fabfresh's mun. That was a very busy day of me not doing much at work.) Come back to me baaabe, leave hiatus soon. We need to get to the next part so Shin can move on from being a perv staring at Asami's bumper stickers, as attractive as those stickers are. There will be art and those fic waiting for you, those ones I promised from like... a month ago!

LOOSHIIII -- I mean, whatever the hell you'd mash THE GOOD LT CAT-FISH FACE/SHADIEST OF SHINS 

the-lightning-lieutenant Because a fist to the face will always get my attention. Their hate is so pure and you literally took me by surprise -- I'd been contemplating not doing autorps at the time since I had no idea what they even were, what is context, how does tumblr work? I'm glad that I replied back to yours. BALL GRABBING FUN.

....in addition to all of that....

Original characters: matsurihakari for being the first OC player to immediately hit up my ask box while I was still trying to figure out how to add sidebar links to my layout. I found you very easy to interact with, responsive, and you really know how to keep things moving along at a good pace. Askbox format is short, but a lot closer to what I was used to before coming to tumblr and it was a big relief to go about it that way while adjusting to the new environment. 

Recently, I'm suffering a deeply manly love for a few characters from other canons:

impulsive--samurai Mugen from Samurai Champloo who's as IC as Mugen as Spike Spiegel and I always appreciate anyone that knows how to rumble.

sweetestvictory JP from Redline, BECAUSE HOW COOL IS IT THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE RPING REDLINE, FUCK YEAH!

(I will admit to basing the race I'm going to be doing with Asami off of illegal street racing and found Redline HELLA inspiring)

....

And...this is my first real pimp post, too. So many firsts. Now I'm embarrassed. Gonna go work out now. 

That is all. *exits stage left*
