1. Simon X Rachel - @the-mind-of-xelyn
I will always have a soft spot for this one. This was my first ship on this blog and their chemistry will always be one of my favourites. Just so sweet and so wholesome and thereās just so much to love. I love these two. Theyāre so unabashedly adoring and devoted to one another and understand each other so well. Theyāre truly kindred spirits.
2. Colin X Rachel - @loosecannon-justice
It took a bit to kick something off with Rachel, but these two have a really really interesting dynamic. Like, Colinās so odd and so strange but really sweet and gentle at the same time, and Rachel just rolls with all his oddities and finds them all unique and quirky and endearing and isnāt put off by him at all. And theyāre just...so soft.
3. Rose X Rachel - @thethreefaes
Female muses in this fandom are a bit difficult to come by and I was honestly wanting to rp with this blog for a bit, but just didnāt know how. So imagine my surprise and delight when Rose popped up in my inbox. And I really like their dynamic right now and I canāt wait to see where it goes. But these two are fun and I like them a lot. Plus, I like playing around with the shifter verse. Itās fun!
4. Serena X Obsidian - @noservitude
Can we say power couple? And also aesthetic AF? Because damn, these two are fun. Itās also a lot of fun to play Serena even though her interactions pale in comparison to Rachelās in sheer volume. But Iām very glad that this one worked out nicely for her. Canāt wait to see what unfolds for them.
5. Leo X Richard - @the-mind-of-xelyn
Another one thatās verse exclusive, and I also never expected myself to get as invested in a character like Leo before this. But I really like how these two act around each other. Leoās so infatuated with Richard and Richardās so loyal and devoted to Leo and isnāt shy of letting him know. Theyāre so soft. Leoās right. Richard is Grade A boyfriend material.
Iām gonna include some runners up because I can and I want to:
Connor X Rachel - @wearera9
This is an interesting one because weāve only really talked about this in DMs, but any verse theyāre in is just...fuck, these two are so God damn soft! Unfortunately we havenāt really had a lot of opportunity to actually rp it out, but Iām super excited to!
Rachel X Thomas - @the-quantum-repairman & Rachel X Sixty - @shotdownbutstillalive
I put these in the same category because my feelings towards both of these are very much the same despite the actual dynamics being very different. I absolutely adore the friendship between the respective muses and while Iām curious to see where their relationships are gonna go, as is, their friendships are super endearing and I just love them so much.
Rachel X Markus - @the-mind-of-xelyn
I wouldāve put this on the top five, but I figured two was a good number from the same blog. But in any case, I fucking love these two. Markus is such a good influence on Rachel and such a damn tease and itās so nice seeing her let down her guard around him and see him as an equal and as a person rather than as some sort of judge for her transgressions. It takes a lot of pressure off of her knowing that she had nothing to be forgiven for and that they can work together. But that presents a different problem, which is oh no, heās actually really cool and sweet and fun and I have a crush on him, fuck.Ā Which is very fun. She traded an inferiority complex for an uncontrollable crush.
Connor X Rachel - @howtodisassembleyourdeviant
These two definitely have some work that needs to be done before they can even really beĀ āfriends,ā let alone any sort of romance. But I actually like that their relationship has conflict and needs work. It leaves a lot of room for development to happen and itās honestly a really interesting dynamic between them. Especially because theyāre on the same side, yet they just butt heads a lot when it comes to the the details of how they go about things. Thereās a lot to work with here and I like that.
Alma X Rachel - @the-mind-of-xelyn
There is SO MUCH POTENTIAL HERE. And also theyāre both just really sweet with each other and are super encouraging of each other and itās so endearing. Theyāre both so curious about the world and so inquisitive with a hunger to understand everything and learn everything and theyāre just so enthusiastic about teaching and learning from each other. And I love that theyāve got that going for them. And I canāt wait to see where their story goes!
Captain Allen X Rachel - @dpds-finest
Grumpy good-hearted captain and mischievous yet good-hearted and compassionate little shit? Yes. All the yes. Theyāre both also really stubborn, which could lead to some interesting conflicts, but Iām really curious to see how they develop and grow from it.
