Surprisingly, till today, the term 'shipping' is still relatively unknown in my social circles and community. Watch the following videos to get acquainted with one aspect of fandom life.

Top Romance Animes

My Top Graphic Novel Pairings

I had been meaning to post this for months but hadn't gotten round to it till now. I'll update the post as soon as I can recall my other ships. Here goes: #05: Wally West / Shayera (The Flash / Hawkgirl) I loved them on Justice League Unlimited. Most viewers would say that they make better siblings, which I understand and agree with to some extent, but one can always dream. Not to mention there's John John and Hawkman in the way. XP #04: Oliver Queen / Dinah Laurel Lance (Green Arrow / Black Canary) The two of them were awesome fighters in Justice League the animated series as well as other spin-offs. Their ongoing banters are hilarious. #03: Garth Ranzz / Imra Ardeen (Lightning Lad / Saturn Girl) Garthra is a more recent ship that I've jumped on since the LSH animated series premièred. While the animated series (with less-than-pleasing character designs) featured them less, it sufficiently showed a kid-friendly version of the tension betwee...

fireladyswag : 201-bk : oh my *** 1 Kings 10:21-23 New International Version 1984 (NIV1984) 21 All King Solomon’s goblets were gold, and all the household articles in the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. Nothing was made of silver, because silver was considered of little value in Solomon’s days. 22 The king had a fleet of trading ships[ a ] at sea along with the ships of Hiram. Once every three years it returned, carrying gold, silver and ivory, and apes and baboons. 23 King Solomon was greater in riches and wisdom than all the other kings of the earth.

Internet Friendship

fireladyswag : dreamcreek : Personal feelings on a certain matter. May offend people.  Read More In no way do I feel offended because I fully agree that internet friendships are real. It's so hard to find friends with common interests in real life these days, unless you participate frequently at conventions. And when you do find these like-minded people, it's special. 1 Samuel 20:41-42 (New International Version) 41 After the boy had gone, David got up from the south side of the stone and bowed down before Jonathan three times, with his face to the ground. Then they kissed each other and wept together—but David wept the most. 42 Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for we have sworn friendship with each other in the name of the LORD, saying, ‘The LORD is witness between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants forever.’” Then David left, and Jonathan went back to the town.[ a ]

Selfish Favors [4/?]

I present to you a lovely series by missturdle. Selfish Favors [4/?] : Synopsis: Roy Mustang was fairly certain that First Lt. Riza Hawkeye had no intentions of retiring to get married and be a stay at home wife, and that was one of the many reasons why he was totally and irrevocably in love with her. [A series of Stand-Alone One Shots explaining how Roy & Riza might realistically get married.] Pt. 1 , Pt. 2 , Pt. 3 Rating: T Snippet: Back then their days were full of actual work, and his evenings were full of pretending to be a playboy, leaving the dead of night as the only time they had to plan a coup d’etat. When she realizes they are bringing back this tradition of sorts she gives him a knowing look. _______ He’s in so much shock that she has time to explain, fairly seriously, how she broke into his apartment. She knows where he keeps his spare key in his office desk, and she’d stayed late that evening at the office.

Top row: Athrun, Kira, Shinn Bottom row: Cagalli, Lacus, Luna Watching an Athrun/Cagalli amv  and reminiscing the time when I: shipped Kira/Cagalli the moment I saw them, went into a denial phase after picking up hints of their true relationship, started shipping Athrun/Cagalli, miss Kira/Cagalli, yo-yo between the two ships, continued into GSD to find out AsuCaga developments with high hopes, had my feelings toyed with, got disappointed at the end, felt happy for Kira/Lacus, though a tad jealous, started shipping Shinn/Luna, felt better, shipped all my canon and non-canon pairings. Back to yo-yo. Darn you GS for the rollercoaster ride. I've been caught in the yo-yo ever since.

Digimon

Ahh... the good old childhood days when I could give you so many reasons why Digimon is so much better than Pokemon. Now I'm just old and forgetful.  http://fivecentimeterspersecond.tumblr.com/  @ http://digitalmonsterconfessions.tumblr.com/post/9929127769 

Hanging Out

Went out with my friend today. She wanted to do some shopping, and in the end, we did - window shopping. It's kinda funny because we're polar opposites when it comes to shopping. She goes for the wants, I go for the needs. But at least we can both agree on one thing - we're very picky. So much so that we can take a long time to select the right thing and we end up not buying anything, which is good for our pockets. I'll take that as good training for resisting temptation. These are the questions I ask myself when selecting the right product: Is this the item you need? If you went shopping for ________, then why are you looking at _ *insert unrelated good*_ ? Is it within your budget? (Sidenote: Personally, I find that carrying very little cash with you really helps to cut down on spending. Don't bring your credit cards either. You can't spend much if you don't have enough money with you. P.S. It's also a good trollin' excuse when so...

Thanks for the Holix - Generator Rex

Just as a recap, episodes 9 - 12 have been below average, but episode 13 "Night Falls" was actually pretty good, keeping up the creepy vibe really well and episode 14 "Hard Target" had a clever twist at the end. As for my thoughts on this episode, I'd say it's about time. << Warning: Spoilers from Generator Rex Season 2 Episode 15 "A Family Holiday" >>

Happy Royai Day!

Image
  Dear Royai shippers, Happy Royai Day! Let's celebrate all the Roy & Riza moments in the past, present and future! RoyAi Day 2011 by ~ lilianadc on deviant ART What is Royai? Royai is the love between two awesome Fullmetal Alchemist characters - Colonel Roy Mustang and First Lieutenant Riza Hawk eye . 'Ai' ( æ„›)  means love in Japanese. So Roy+Hawkeye+Ai = Royai. (Note the pun. Clever, eh?) Why is Royai Day on June 11? No one really knows why. It originated in Japan some years back, and forum discussions have led to several possible speculations: June 11 may have been the date a Fullmetal Alchemist chapter (which featured a significant Royai moment) was released. The numbers 611 could have held major significance to Mustang and Hawkeye's relationship in the story line (e.g. Ishbal war event dates, room numbers, etc.). Trivia Did you know that EdWin Day (503)  is on May 3? W...

Crazy - but freaking brilliant.

I just came across some awesome Royai fics and had to repost it. Fanfiction: Fullmetal Alchemist: The Road is Longer Still  by  jellyjay . Operation Break-Up  by jellyjay . “If every single stupid plan I’ve ever come up with to get them together has failed, then logically, a plan to break them up will also fail, effectively getting them together.” There was another pause. Then Breda laughed heartily and pushed back from his desk. “That – That’s so crazy it might actually work.” “Brilliant, isn’t it?” snorted Jean loftily. “Crazy – but freaking brilliant.” Jean Havoc, you're a genius. Reflect, Reverse  by porcelaindakota Even though Royai isn't officially canon, we all know that it has always been and will always be canon. After many years of shipping Royai, I cherish all the little moments that the Colonel & the Lieutenant have shared. Thus, I hope Royai shippers will find the following collections useful. But beware of spoilers. Roya...
