"if youre going to vaugepost you should clarify in the tags you arent talking about anyone on Tumblr"

on op's post about a cat misbehaving in a way that makes no logical sense that it would be about a person?

@swagittariusrising asked and i said why not. Also @abpleboo cause they will probably have even more recs. (CHECK OUT THEIR ART TOO!!!!)

this list is sfw because y'all don't need help finding porn. Maybe when I'm 18.

For @y0itsbri ❤

Lip "Ego" Gallagher

How I feel about this character: Lip's story has got to be one of the most heartbreaking in the show. There were things he faced that I almost couldn't handle watching. Lip is an incredibly strong character with some of the most relatable weaknesses. He's raw and real and keeps the show grounded when his siblings can be a bit more outrageous in their whacky storylines.

All the people I ship romantically with this character: okay I get the "romance" part of this section but I choose to ignore for a moment to speak of what brings out the best in Lip in his relationships: family. If the chick has a kid Lip is in the best relationship for him because Lip is inherently a father. To him I don't think it matters as much who he is with as it matters what they build together for the kid involved.

My non-romantic OTP for this character: I love Ian and Lip's brother dynamic. Its so good it gets ragged on in the last season (Ian looooves Lip). Also Brad, someone who came into Lip's life with the purpose of supporting him through his toughest point, seeing their friendship develop and be mutually supportive was great.

My unpopular opinion about this character: I don't think Tami and Lip are in a loving relationship. Not that they don't love each other in some way. I think they are together for Fred and trying to work it out for him but at most I think they have a fondness for each other. They might make it last for decades on lukewarm feelings though maybe that's enough for them.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.: the person I was first watching this show really wanted Karen's baby to be Lips! Even that early I could tell he just was ready to be a father, but I acknowledge that Karen would not have made their relationship good like Tami does so I am also glad it didn't happen in the long run.

Ian "Caveman" Gallagher

How I feel about this character: Ian is my baby. I want to put him in my pocket and not let anyone near him (except Mickey and even then sometimes he's on thin fucking ice) so that he's safe forever. He is dorky and funny and heartbreakingly lost in what life throws at him, but he attracts people who want to love him and help him and support him because he is a good person. In a show about shitty people and their shitty lives he is good.

All the people I ship romantically with this character: the only person worthy of Ian's heart (100% not this 87% bullshit) is Mickey "Ride or Die" Milkovich. Hands down. No I will not be taking criticism.

My non-romantic OTP for this character: Mandy Mandy Mandy. Also Svetlana before he stole the baby. I liked the time they all lived together in this found forced family dynamic. Seeing them all making the best of a situation no one wanted them to be in. I mean Ian had every right to hate her, hate Yevgeny, and he didn't.

My unpopular opinion about this character: I did not think it was funny at all when Ian had sex with a woman. I almost exited the show at that point. Ian has been positive about his sexuality since the beginning (I also didn't think it was cool for Lip to force Karen on him but it was early and I moved past it). It was really fucked up for Caleb to make Ian doubt himself because he "hadn't tried everything" and it ultimately sent him into a manic episode. Ian questions so much of who he is and what is real and one thing he never questioned was that he liked men. Just flat out don't make someone feel bad for their sexual orientation or infer they don't know their true orientation because they haven't had sex with a particular gender/sex. Its not cool.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.: send Ian to Mexico with Mickey please just let them cross the boarder with Mickey in his dress and wig and they're holding hands on the center console while their fake passports are being reviewed and they're holding their breath and waiting and then they're in and they pull off to laugh and kiss and cry tears of joy that they made it and they're free together. I ask for a million happy endings for Ian and Mickey (thanks fanfiction for giving me that)
