Hierok 11,832 July 26, 2017 Share July 26, 2017 I think you should keep canon characters and OC's out of each other. You don't wanna ruine the canon character. 4 If I don't understand something or Interpret it wrong, I'm dutch. Sometimes I gamble for meanings of the words. And sometimes I write the wrong words, like week and weak for example. Sorry for it already.

DixonTheAdversary 1,632 July 26, 2017 Share July 26, 2017 I really don't care for it much as long as it is done well. But if the 2 characters do not fit well with each other at all, then I am against it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Piranha 29,428 July 26, 2017 Share July 26, 2017 I've seen a handful handled well, but most of the time, they are just bland wish-fulfillment/self-insert to ship themselves with their waifu/husbando . That's one of the reasons I wanna some pony Twi with Flashy 1 Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nth Doctor 662 July 26, 2017 Share July 26, 2017 You're better off with OCxOC because everyone gets adorably defensive whenever their waifu is in danger of getting ravished by anyone that isn't either themselves or their preferred pairing partner for said canon character "Twilight should be dating my OC!" - BlackGryph0n 4 "I love deadlines.

Tilgoreth 1,915 July 26, 2017 Share July 26, 2017 Well my OC Silga Singewald has a boyfriend. But I do like pairing her with Rarity. That sexy lesbian marshmallow. 4 Signature made by Kyoshi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Guide 21,362 July 26, 2017 Share July 26, 2017 (edited) Well, I won't hate people who do Canon x OC shippings. I'm sure there are plenty of people, like me, who wouldn't mind reading or watching such shipping, even if the majority hate the idea! Personally, for a short while, my two OCs, Unicorn Will Guide and Changeling Will Guide, start crushing on Spike the Dragon and Thorax the Changeling, respectively. But in the end, the Wills end up with each other. They're literally "soul mates", after all! So don't worry about me. I go from a pair of CanonxOCs to just OCxOC of my own!

But as for me, I don't really care if your oc has a crush on a canon character, it spares me of a headache when I need to have a 40 million page guideline of what my character can and can't do. That's why I've been hesitant to join roleplays, they're mainly so restricted I feel like I have little control over my character. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZethaPonderer 2,199 July 27, 2017 Share July 27, 2017 Dumb IMO, but fun I guess to ship your inspired fictional creation (OC) with a fictional character in media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adderbane 121 July 27, 2017 Share July 27, 2017 Giving a new character any important role is always a risky business; just look at Flash Sentry. Significant roles require exceptional characters. However, it is entirely possible that a suitable canon character may not be found. For example I have yet to see a canon character I'd ship with Twilight or Applejack. There's nothing wrong with creating original love interests for canon characters, but the bar is set high. Also it should be noted that there is a difference between inventing a character and inventing a character who you imagine as representing yourself. Only the best of the best can pull off the latter successfully. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's good, but considering college preparation is coming up, I have neither the time, nor the confidence needed to get one to comply with MLPF's minimum post standards.

Foxy Socks 2,599 July 29, 2017 Share July 29, 2017 Too late Foxy already likes Fluttershy and Luna, and since it's not canon, I don't really care about other shippings. I think it's cute, and it makes sense since people want their character part of the world, even if it is as far as Foxy takes it.

StormBlaze 992 July 31, 2017 Share July 31, 2017 i didnt realise it was hated, I assumed everyone did it.... at least once. Stormy is often paired with Soarin. I just really like how sweet his character is and I think the voice drew me in because it's Kero's voice (from Cardcaptors). I have a love for all nostalgia. The ship is more for silly fun and to give Stormy more of a reason to be drawn in Wonderbolt themes.

cmarston1 5,959 August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 It's fine as long as the OC isn't a self insert or blatant wish fulfillment and is written as an actual character instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
