happy belated Sin birthday, happy pride month, here's a painting that took years off my life
and proof that paintings always go through some pretty ugly stages - i honestly think i spent at least 40 hours on this if not more somehow. i think this is a lesson in "not everything needs to be the sistine chapel"

So somewhat sorry about the Guilty Gear takeover on my blog, itâs been my brainrot but my GG posts get drastically less likes than anything else hahahaaaa⌠rip me. Also ye Iâve been in a yapping mood here lately cause drawing has been hard and typing this kinda stuff is easier (writing fanfic also isnât easy sooo⌠have my Introspection/Headcanons instead).
This isnât really in any order. The first two are my absolute favorites and consume my thoughts. From there onwards I roughly ordered them by length of text I felt necessary to explain them. I added a bunch of my Headcanons and Related Opinions to some so sorry not sorry for all the tangents (I went full Brainworms and Parentheses).
Also at this point on this blog I have no filter when it comes to fandom opinions, if I get cancelled for my opinions so be it I guess (ie Iâll cry but itâs whatever).
Tho yeah. Genuinely probably the most unfiltered post Iâve put on this blog (lol), so sorry if my writing isnât as good as it usually is and is all over the place.
Edit: I keep adding to this post because I realize I have another tangent thatâs related, whoops. So heads up if you come back there might be more?
-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 canât 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 youâve SEEN the homoerotic SolKy art, I stand by Dizzy is NOT stupid, sheâd have to know and wouldnât have married Ky if she wasnât ok with it. Also sheâs 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 âI DO NOT see Sol as Dizzyâs Father at all and question if there is even a biological connection?â Iâve seen a lot of people throw around âAria Pregnant Pre Justiceâ 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 theyâre trying to pray away the gay and say âSol is only around the Kiske family because Dizzy is daughterâ when that has not been the case at all (it was the blond bitch, also Sol is Sinâs adoptive FATHER in canon sooo). Like making Sol and Ky in-laws doesnât make any of their interactions less homoerotic, it just makes it weird (Sailor Moonâs âCousinsâ echos in the distance). So Iâm 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 donât 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 theyâve 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 sheâs just like âyeah I know?â Then she gives the âyou thought I didnât know?â And sheâs explains she believes in more than societyâs narrow view of what love can be.
BTW I think Ky is so sincere in his love towards Dizzy the âmomentâ Sol and Ky have wouldnât even have to be a physical one. The first second Ky feels like itâs 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 âhow the hell can he love Dizzy and âbetrayâ her this way?â Meanwhile Dizzy has always been slightly outside society's ânormalâ. At this point sheâs learned to accept herself and that what society considers ânormalâ isnât always whatâs 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 âGuiltyâ 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 donât yap about them here despite me saying Ky is my favorite um⌠letâs 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 itâs Ky values her opinion and he (likes it) likes her in charge). Sheâs very much a âwonât start a fight but WILL finish itâ and I love that about her character so much (Iâm winning). Like donât take Dizzyâs 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 âwho is the man and who is the womenâ (ew) but a bunch of smaller implied HCs).
Look I donât 100% know where this one came from so maybe itâs lit crack but I REALLY like their dynamic. Romeoâs technical genius but social fumbling and Sinâs optimism and emotional intelligence (I will die on the hill defending my boyâs 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 donât do that with each other and take each other seriously would be a big point. Also I think theyâre 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 wouldâve 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 SINâS 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 Sinâs adoptive sisters here) having collectively 4 younger sisters is funny to me. Iâm going with âreviving Romeoâ nonsense and my âUnika Is My OC AUâ 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 letâs just say itâs pretty obvious Sol sucks at teaching). So of course when Romeo comes back he hangs around both to spend time with Deliah and âevaluateâ who sheâs 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, theyâre 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 itâs her older siblings and Deliah. When Unika is like 10-ish appearance wise (so like roughly 2) is when the whole âreviving Romeoâ 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 Solâs 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 Sinâs Dragon Install AUâ).
Also just BTW I am VERY maternal towards this group (Sin, Romeo, Ram, El, Deliah, and Unika) but particularly incredibly Sin and Unika. Itâs also where I am the pickiest in fandom opinions. Basically itâs where I am the fastest to avoid following someone if I donât 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 donât 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 itâs 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 âfirst guy she thinks is cool besides her familyâ so like when kids get a crush on their kindergarten teacher. Ram would hear Gio also likes Leo would feel the need to âstand her groundâ for all of five seconds before seeing Gioâs dog. Then Ram would be like âher dog is awesome Leo you should marry herâ 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 âcourtâ 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
Letâs 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 wasnât scared or overly reverent. But Chaos himself doesnât fully get that and just thinks Daryl was âinteresting and funâ 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 heâs in love with a criminal.
I am very much on the âafter a heart to heart the three kings realize they have more in common then they thoughtâ 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 Darylâs safety.
Also ye Happy Chaos would call Daryl âPuddingâ as a pet name.
-May x Bridget
MayBuri! Listen⌠I do think UniBuri but because I am on my âUnika Is My OC AUâ 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 itâs just not good for them. People have forgotten crack ships and fandom as transformative work and fan work just being⌠whatever you want! And weâre 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 doesnât have to be.
So um that tangent aside May and Bridget DO have history and good interactions (youâve seen the art of May holding Bridgetâs ass) but I did initially ship them because they both wear hoodies LMAO!
Also just,,, Mayâs crush on Johnny being her misreading familiar love for romantic love due to both her being a lesbian and Johnny being the guy sheâs 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
Letâs continue with the pirates! The ship name is JohnnyTest⌠cracks me up.
The biggest reasoning behind this is I feel theyâre both similar people due to the fact I see them both as Dizzyâs parents. Like Testament took care of Dizzy for the beginning of her life (and I have so many questions about Dizzyâs beginnings that I will never get answers tooâŚ) 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 thereâs a girl for December or if Dizzy is the December girl. Oh also I think Iâm accidentally counting the cat but fuck thatâs a kid too to me).
I feel like it would actually take forever for Johnny and Tes to get together. Like theyâd 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 Iâll have to find which fanfic said it (Iâm sorry I donât remember!!!) but someone said âJohnny the chronic bad bitch fumbler and Testament the baddest bitch there isâ 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 fanâs pleasure and doesnât even have to be good of course!!!)
-Anji x Baiken (or is it Baiken x Anji⌠I ainât picky)
Do I even have to say anything? x2
BTW only one here where I donât 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 âDad who said he didnât want the damn catâ dynamic⌠I love it so much.
-Millia x Elphet
This one might actually be 100% crack and Iâm okay with that. Itâs not a fully formed thought so thus why itâs 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, itâs just another layer of intrigue for her.
Taking a note from Edgerunners, I have this image in my head where thereâll 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 thatâs when she falls in love.
-Asuka x I-No x Raven?
So this one is not a fully formed opinion. But like the âThat Manâ Crew ⢠is a polycule to me and I donât know how to explain it fully. Strive is just that meme âof polyamorous marriage should be legal because of all the reasons but also cause I wanna see a polyamorous divorceâ and I-No did not get the Tome Of Creation in the divorce.
-I Can Chill With:
Iâm usually a âmy OTP or nothingâ type Shipper but for GG despite Sol x Jacko, Sol x Axl, and Axl x I-No all not being my preferred Ships I do actually vibe with them and can enjoy Content for them! Which is very rare for me. Ship Tier List Here BTW for my crazy Shipper Opinions.
I'm not sure why Dual Rulers still has me kinda fucked up even though it ended like half a month ago but flawed as it is I keep coming back to the ramifications of everything and I keep wondering how much something that heavy must have messed up Sin emotionally.
It's an odd yet kinda obvious direction to go to do otp stuff with it, but I feel like interestingly the Sinbed plot threads I've been having lately are sort of an inverse of how I usually perceive their dynamic. Usually, it's Sin being accommodating and forgiving even as Bedman keeps looping through self-doubt and guilt that he can be anything worthwhile after all the harm he was responsible for. Now, I keep imagining Sin post Dual-Rulers, still questioning everything and wondering if he really is a mistake that makes others' lives worse, and for once Bedman is the one intervening and dismantling the thought as absurd because of course Sin deserves kindness and love, he deserves the same kindness and grace he gives to everyone else, it's simply logic and he can't argue with that (he could try, but that's the nice thing about having a partner that's so stubborn, if he tells you that you're worth loving, he'll just keep arguing and arguing until you can't refute it anymore)
