Hello!! Ive been in various fandom spaces for...most of my life probobly. For the past few years, ive been in and out of the pokemon fandom, fixation stronger each time around. Most recently my attention has been caught by Burgh, the bug type gym leader from Black and White. No big deal, right? Just another man for my pile.
nay ☝️<pretend this finger is wagging
(More below the cut, shortening this so I can make it my pinned post lmao)
There are zero pokemon cards for Burgh. There is absolutely no official merchandise for burgh. Okay, less popular character, but fandom will have my back, right?
NAY AGAIN! While there are a couple people who post for Burgh, and who I majorly respect for it, he is still a wildly unpopular character. It is easy to go through all content of him within a day.
Fanfiction included.
^ Keep in mind most of these he is simply a background character, if i filtered for ones he was the focus of there would be WAY less.
But the worst thing, my friends. The worst thing of all. Is that I ship him with Brassius. Absolutely perfect combination, made on a platter. And im not the first to come up with it either, no! There are a handful of posts throwing the idea around. Even 2 drawings with them interacting. But this is the first time ive ever encountered a ship with no name. My first true rarepair in all my years of fandom.
So why am I posting about it, you may ask? to complain? NO!!! I am announcing that I am going to make this ship my ENTIRE PERSONALITY. for AT LEAST A MONTH. HOPEFULLY LONGER.
I will make the fanfics that are lacking, I will draw the fanart. And most importantly, I WILL MAKE THE SHIP NAME!
Ahem. I propose that Brassius x Burgh henceforth be known as
Naturestudy Shipping
(Plaintext: Naturestudy shipping)
This follows pokemon ship name conventions and cuts to the root of the pair, pun intended. If you, reader, have any other suggestions, I would love to hear about them.
I will also be shipping EphemeralNatureStudy shipping, a poly ship for Brassius Burgh and Hassel.
I will be aquiring a DS and buying black and white/black 2 white 2 so I can play the game and experience Burgh myself (the wiki isnt enough, I must do field research.)
If ANYBODY OUT THERE is interested in talking about Burgh or about Naturestudy shipping, PLEASE REACH OUT. I am going to rope as many people into this as I can.
this painting by andrew wyeth has got SO many ghosts in it. most andrew wyeth paintings have ghosts in, but this is off the scale!
this painting by dragan bibin has only one ghost as far as i can tell, but it's a really scary ghost (the dog thinks so too)
this painting by meraud guevara looks very peaceful, but unfortunately it has a ghost in it. i can't tell you where, but it does
you might think you can see the ghosts in this dorothea tanning painting, but you're wrong. the little girls are just ordinary girls. the actual ghost is behind one of those doors.
Girl help I got sucked into the Ryan Gosling cinematic universe and now I’m realizing he’s a genuinely good actor whose performances got overshadowed by people’s sexual perception of him as opposed to his actual talent
I love "gender bending" characters but HATE HATE HATE designs where canon buff dudes are wispy little fairy ladies and canon tiny women are beefy ass male linebackers. If you're not in it for JACKED WOMEN and TWINKS then what's what's FUCKING point
I was gonna make a bunch of these to prove a point but realized halfway through that Lady Bane is my ultimate butch fantasy so now I have to go lay down
Anyhow I've been thinking about this cpncept lately so I have some additional thoughts on Acceptable Male Characters Who Would Be Legendary Female Character Design
I told my little nephew that I'd wave at his airplane when it flew over my house today, and he very calmly and politely explained that it wouldn't be possible to see me due to the limitations of human vision. I said he just had to squint real hard, and he took a deep breath and went into the toddler version of "see, what you're not understanding–"
