#yumeshippers

You do NOT have too much emotional baggage for your f/o

Your f/o is NOT with you out of a mere obligation

You are NOT unattractive to your f/o

You are NOT a burden on your f/o

You ARE, however:

Enough for your f/o

Beautiful/Handsome to your f/o

Perfect for your f/o

The whole world to your f/o

Your f/o’s motivation for everything

A comforting person that makes your f/o’s day better

A beacon of hope to your f/o

just realised they’re all lwk wife material anyways (this is all for fun pls don’t come after me</3) not beta read as usualll

ft: hsr men! (all the women are girlbosses.)  →Dan heng, Welt, Gepard, Aventurine

Dan Heng:

Oh yes. 

Would do a good job too 

Breakfast? Made. Laundry? Done. Dishes? Washed.

You name it, Dan heng has already done it.

Would make you breakfast in bed on demand

Not to mention this man is surprisingly good at eyeliner (I MEAN LOOK AT HIS RED EYELINER LIKE RED EYELINER DAN HENG APPRECIATION🙇)

would grab your chin gently and tilt your head up towards his face so he can lean in close and do your eyeliner for you while he stares in your eyes, win-win for both of you.

This man has me on my KNEESSSS

If you were sick he would probably make the best soup ever

“Dan Heng, are you sure you didn’t order take-out soup from some fancy expensive restaurant?”

“…what?”

His cooking skills are THAT good.

After all he’s very capable since he’s always cleaning up after March 7th and taking care of trailblazers mess

You’re convinced the house would probably fall apart without him so remember to shower him with kisses after he handles everything for you<3

Welt:

honestly it’s a 50/50 relationship, but he’d malewife if you asked

Still I think he’d less malewife and more “let’s do it together”

grandpa can take care of you and make bank

he’s pretty strong so i hc Welt as those old grandpa bodyguards that look like they should retire but are crazy good at defence so he can pay bills woohoo

Anyways he would be able to deep clean pretty well like if you guys were to do a spring cleaning he would likely take over and be done in a flash once you give up

“Welt, we’ve been at this for three hours, I’m taking a break.”

As soon as you leave the room he would pull a “SURVIVE OR BE DESTROYED-“

“…what was that.”

“Nothing, also i finished up.” He says as the black hole with a suspiciously large pile of clothes inside it disappears 

Would take care of the house if you didn’t feel like it

Responsible bc like Dan Heng he has to deal with March 7th and trailblazer

So overall he’s more a 50/50 man (not the bill though. he’d always pay.)

Gepard:

YESYESYES NO QUESTIONS ASKED

He probably got lectured a bunch by serval growing up so he knows how to do everything right

Would teach you how to properly clean the bathroom or how to properly load the laundry

“…so…three…”

washing machine starts with no warning

“NO TWO- I SAID TWO-“

it’s ok he also took care of it when the washing machine started foaming

would SPOIL you rotten for no reason at all

You will literally come home go your favourite desert on table, your favourite flowers in a vase and the entire house deep cleaned

The way you could have just bawled on the spot

Gepards actually pretty shy about it so when you praise him he goes all red and splutters about some “bare minimum” and “good habits”

He loves it when you praise him though so dont stop

Aventurine:

he gives off malewife energy but erm… he can’t really do the “traditional wife” part 

HEARMEOUT.

Growing up he was sold and wasn’t taken care of properly, much less learned how to do stuff like clean the freaking bathroom so unfortunately you’re probably gonna have to do a bunch of heavy lifting

He’s still gonna try his best though

By try his best I mean buy his best

Literally buys you cleaning services because he wants to spend time with his gem so why would he let you slave away at the floors when a machine could do the same thing?

“…Aventurine, did you buy ANOTHER cleaning robot.”

“But my gem! This one works at double the speed!☹️”

It didn’t work at double the speed and it left soap all over the floor so you had to have a mopping date with aventurine

Didn’t stop you from having fun together when you guys started mop wars and see who could clean the most area in a minute

You guys tied but he swears he’ll beat you next time (sure he will)

(haiii guys, I have yumeship commissions open! thanks 4 reading!!!!

If you don’t understand a term or what it means - don’t use it, if there’s an english widely used equivalent of the term that’s existed for longer and all sources show it means what you think it means ; use it instead.

I don’t mean to get into too much of the yume versus selfship discourse but imo I have just. never seen any Japanese person directly say anything about it or use it.

I feel like the answer should be kind of obvious considering the fact ‘yumeship’ is already using english and isn’t a fully Japanese term. I’ve also heard it was formed by English speaking audiences as well. As least terms like oshikatsu and gyaru are in full Japanese - thus there are a large number of Japanese people informing non Japanese people about what it is and blablabla. It made me realise maybe I shouldn’t be using the term.

Just use the term selfship, easily avoid being unintentionally orientalist, its the fully English term which fits its mostly English speaking audience. They’re used to mean fundamentally the same thing, they’re used interchangably and as synonyms. One isn’t more serious than the other. Majority of us don’t exactly even know the whole thing behind yumejoshi/danshi culture. If there’s anyone who’d like to add a first person perspective I will edit this post to add a link to your post - or add the info.
