Your thoughts about shippings

[Sazama Ichida 2,367]

They're only fun if you do them in a fanfic or RP.

I've always been a shipper. But when I saw MLP: FiM, I was determined not to ship anything because well, they're colorful candy ponies. But eventually around season 2-ish, Rarity/Fancypants broke me and I had to admit I saw some ships in the show.

...Celestia/AU!Sombra is a thing?? O.o

 

I love shipping in all my fandoms, including MLP I have my OTPs (mostly PinkieShy and Rarijack) but I'm a multishipper and open to a ton of different pairings, if they're written well in fanfic or something. I don't act like any of my non-canon ships (which are basically all of them XD) are going to happen in the show or argue about them though, that's just dumb. Everypony has their own tastes/opinions, and it's all cool with me as long as you don't bash shippers/pairings/characters~ some shippers are obnoxious, but that's no different to any other part of the fandom!

 

I like it mostly as a fan activity though, and while some romance every now and then is fine I prefer it not to be a major part of the show. I know FlashLight is a thing I still hope they'll stick to having no (two-sided - the occasional crush like Rarity->Trenderhoof or Sparity when it's not overdone can be cute/funny) love interests for the Mane 6 in FiM. There's much more interesting things I'd rather see in the show, but in fandom I will happily ship ALL THE THINGS
