♡ main selfship featured on this blog is with nico yazawa <3 i first met her when i was 15 and we’ve been besties ever since!! we grew up together <3
♡ the way my selfshipping works is that nico ages up with me in real time (so currently in 2025 she would be 27) she is always older than me in my mind, nothing about this is significant age gap. (i do not control the canon material refusing to make the girlies age at all OTL) if this makes u uncomfy feel free to block, no hard feelings <3
♡ freely sharing <3 doubles welcome im literally polyamorous lmao
♡ i also have a splatoon au version of nico lovingly nicknamed squico (squid nico) lmao so may tag for that also
♡ if i end up adding other f/os I’ll update the tags here probably (i am very shy abt others as they are mostly ocs ^^;)

self insert lore below the break!
🎀nico - literally just me irl but we were in high school together and became idol girlfriends. more projecting onto hanayo in canon than anything else
🦑squico - this one would require a minimum 30min infodump about tetra spectrum but tldr you take real neon age 14 and you make her a squid. and you make her transgender from the start apparently. you put her through the epic highs and lows of being a squid. fast forward to age 20 something and you have domestic squid girlfriends living in parallel apartments with a big friend group/found family. it’s really cozy and means the world to me
D&D charas in general - I recently got convinced by my lovely foxfriend to make a dnd sona so here they are! shifter circle of dreams druid. this thing can broadly apply to any dnd/fantasy ttrpg type situation if applicable but I will also go over specifics if I have them.
🌕tsuki - I don’t have much specific Lore for this one yet but I’m rly gay for tsuki and I think he’s the coolest ever and also I wanna hangout with the rest of the tyranny party so there’s that
🕯️wax - just make the creature a catfolk instead of a shifter bc the rules around this setting are different. anyway I can’t say much bc of current campaign spoilers but I CAN FIX HIM. he’s still good deep down I know this to be true and I can fix him. once I undoom him from the narrative the wedding is BACK ON. anyway I want to put myself in the polycule so I can kiss foxes that’s about the long and short of it besides that. here’s how the curse/wax/alejandro marriage can still win-
🍩finley - 20smth with no job ends up applying for cat cafe, rest of the game plot plays out as normal, I haven’t actually decided what her witch magic is yet I should do that. both neon and finley love being together as girlies and also as cats, bc being a cat is just fun and also rly gender affirming for neons. they do both maintain this power in postgame they just can do it on command now. girls who kiss and eat snacks and infodump and go to conventions together. apparently the day I finished her route was June 27, 2019 so that’s our anniversary now. I just decided this
👑c!techno - there is a whole au about this one too but the short version is dsmp!neon spawns in the snow somewhere near the end of the exile arc, follows tommy to technos house. and just kind of. never leaves. sets up in the arctic with the anarchist commune. never gets affiliated with l’manberg or anything. sees ranboo as a big (tall) little (age) sibling ish figure. likes to follow people around on their silly little adventures. accidentally gets implicated in crimes. tends to the animals while techno is hibernating.
ordering a single character comm is like whatever. ordering a selfship comm is like ohmygod i might as well have cut myself open and shown this artist my internal organs.
"Why would my f/o love me?"
Well, why wouldn't they?
There's nothing wrong with allowing yourself to think your f/o could and would love you. There's nothing wrong with reminding yourself that you're enough, and that includes for them.
you and f/o going out on a rainy day.. you both splash in puddles, catch frogs, and they pretend to eat a worm. you trick f/o into going under a tree branch and shake out all the water onto them
May you see yourself with the same loving eyes. May you grow to love your body like they do. May you enjoy your own company as much as they enjoy having you around.
May you see your flaws with the same patience. May you cheer yourself with the same fervor as them.
And most of all may you always believe in yourself just like they do.
Imagine your f/o stealing your food. Without remorse, without hesitation. Just straight up taking a french fry and putting it in their mouth. And looking at you while they're chewing it like they don't understand what just happened. They know you can't be mad at them at all.
