Ship wars

[floranna]

My parents have told me since I was a kid that: Everyone's tastes are different. I can't stand liquorices nor grapefruits, but I love rye bread brand called Real and ridiculous tv-shows like Say Yes to the Dress. Shut up. XDD

It's just...I don't know how to say it. I have my favourite parings and some I honestly can't stand or see any logic in them. I started as a Zutarian, and have learnt to like Maiko. I can't stand Kataang and incest makes my run from the fic faster than light. So I don't read them. That's it. I won't waste my energy telling people who are fan of those things how terrible/illogical/disgusting those parings are, like those people who just can't seem to shut up about it.

I really, really like Makorra. I don't see the joy of the parings like Bokorra, Tahnorra or Tarrlorra. Or whatever you call those ships.

I really don't like confrontations, and sometimes I feel like I am missing something in the text, especially if it's written in the internet so I rather stay quiet and wait for the clarification.

I stay the heel away from character bashing and shipbashing, and have been quite good at it especially in AtLA fandom. But in Glee I have had to face the utter crazyness of the fans, their bashings and lunacy and honestly? It was that and the uneven writing in the show that have pretty much alienated me from it.

I don't want confrontation. If I don't like the ship in the fic, I won't read it. As simple as that. I won't make you read a fic that has a paring you don't like, and I expect the same courtesy from you. And I sure as hell not won't make you feel bad for liking it.



Oh, and please click my dragons.

I haven't quite gotten into Korra fandom yet, I'll wait until the biggest waves have eased until I start reading the fic there. But Linroh sounds iunteresting, but I am not very easy with parings tat have a large age difference, so I am waiting some sort of clarification on their ages.

Oh for... those summaries are obviously for reason, why people complain about things that are made clear even before the wholefic starts?

I'm pretty sure I'm the only person who ships Linroh. There is no fic that I haven't requested anyway.

(I think there's a a 15-20 year age difference, because she's 50 and I think he's in his mid thirties - give me some answers,Bryke! - and usually I don't go for age gaps either, but they're so pretty)

That sounds much better, I always think he is 25-30.

I think I saw a one, but can't remember who wrote it or to whom...
