hiii, my contribution for ship ask game, what are your thoughts on these common (any of the following, i am indecisive) dunmeshi ships:
- marcille x falin
- laois x kabru
- chilchuck x laois
- chilchuck x senshi
omggg pop quiz on a series I did read in its entirety but haven't thought about in a while hmm... farcille!
idk what can I say about farcille that nobody else hasn't said before... I do think it's basically canon like I have eyes. however something about it simply doesn't check my boxes or hit my funnybone or whatever. wish I enjoyed farcille more but I feel no strong emotions about it :( maybe it's bc they're both blonde or something
Laios x Kabru
comedy of errors type shit... I do think both laios and kabru went through really excellent character development together and that one analysis of them that was like oh their trauma came from humans and monsters respectively so they became the understanders of monsters and humans... but then neither of them are truly liberated because they don't understand their adversaries. but because they met each other they can finally confront that which they had been avoiding all this time. .. something something. that was a great post which changed my opinion on their character dynamic!
however I don't really see them as romantic... I do enjoy the king and advisor dynamic they end up having I think that's really cool and I think I prefer that to be non-romantic
chilchuck x laios
I do really enjoy the relationship between chilchuck and laios! I like that they're able to be cordial, professional coworkers. I think that's very special for the both of them! like I think for Laios who struggles with interpersonal relationships, and Chilchuck who is straddling this really awkward line of being this intimidating figure to other half-foots while being infantilized and exploited by people of other races, both of them really value the fact that they can treat each other normally and respectfully. I really like that they respect the boundaries outlined in their work contract basically! It just feels kind of ooc for either of them to fall in love lmaooo
chilchuck x senshi
omg. OK. sorry. sorry sorry. I don't really like this one... like I know senshi mistakenly believing chilchuck to be a kid and giving him a sex ed talk was born purely out of senshi's ignorance and also his unique circumstances of being in the dungeon for a decade or something. but it is just such a painful and egregious macroaggression to me I just can't see chilchuck ever being able to consider senshi a romantic partner idkkk like I've received my share of racial and cultural comments that were infantilizing and/or offensive and while I can still be friends with these people to be in a committed romantic relationship is just sooo... mmm... I don't know.......
thank you again for the asks though and anyone who disagrees feel free to do so for I am answering based on vague recollections so I may very well be wrong about character interpretations and so on!!!
