Hi, I'm just asking, but what are your main OTPS for LR, and why do you ship them?
Oh man i don’t want to turn this into a sermon so I’ll try to make it short. I’ve got 5 main ships with canon characters and 1 with an OC of mine.
Rorak is an OC of mine that is a childhood friend of Carissa. He’s a huge, hairy, soft boy who can probably snap a mountain in half with his bare hand but bOI he soff for Cari and he thinks she super precious. Carissa is very in your face and abrasive in personality so she tends to struggle with relationships because people find her to be too much. Finding out Rorak was crushing on her since they were kids was beyond flattering and they generally enjoy each other’s company. Iris helped give Rorak the courage to confess and honestly I should work with them a little more.
Lev and Lyna would be that Vegeta/Bulma type of ship or like Green Arrow/Black Canary. He’s the rebellious, bad boy thief and she’s the pretty, prissy femme princess. Like that just really appeals to me. I feel like they would constantly be sassing the heck out of each other, but at the same time, Lev would be surprised by Lyna’s kindness and elegance, while being attracted to her wit and challenging nature. The idea of Lev being a “dirty, shady, lying” thief to her but she just can’t resist the temptation because god he’s cute and she loves one upping him is just fun. Also they’d be that constantly judging couple that side eyes everyone and gossips at dinner like nobody’s business. Totally the ones to get busted making out at a ball after arguing over the decor.
They’re just so good for each other. They don’t try to change each other or judge each other harshly. Nat is super understanding with her, and he always gives her the benefit of the doubt. People claim its boring, but who doesn’t want a relationship built on understanding, compassion, and healthy growth. Nat is one of the most influential and important people in Iris’ life, and they’ve been there for each other since they were kids. Their love has yet to waiver. Auriana was right! It’s true love!

Honestly I love these precious kids and its my favorite Auriana ship to this date. Not only is Matt a good person, he’s genuinely interested in Auriana not just for her beauty, but her personality and brains. The same is mutual for Auriana. While we see her like boys for being good looking or creative, Matt is this cute, normal STEM kid who loves to talk about dinosaurs. Not only does he give her fond memories of earth, but Ephedia/Volta as well. For more on my feelings on the click HERE
I know this fandom has this “its not in the show so you have no reason to ship it” mentality going on from time to time bUT HELL I SHIP THEM HARD. I honestly adore these two together. THIS was my first time explaining them, but after my 3 years of being a LoliRocker, I’ve had time to dig a little deeper. One, I love the bad girl good boy trope. They remind me a lot of Beck and Jade from Victorious, though Zack isn’t as edgy as Beck is. He’s preppy, good-natured and he tries to follow the rules. Praxina is devious, dark, and sultry, constantly defying the world and ready to cut down anyone in her way. However, Zack’s life is constantly being decided for him, and he’s expected to act a certain way and to take on things he isn’t interested in. He’s expected to always do good, and to make his parents proud. Praxina is expected to do what she’s told, even when it isn’t in her best interest. She has hardly any freedoms, and I hc she had a rough upbringing after the twins lost their parents. They balance each other out in many ways and I like to think Zack prefers dominant, mysterious women over cutesy, angelic ones. I think he’d see that Prax needs someone who won’t abandon her and appreciates her good and bad. I also think Zack wouldn’t put up with her being cruel and nasty and would call her on that just like he told Iris that she can’t fix everything. I also can see Prax pushing Zack to do what he wants and to become the man he wants to be for himself. She also wouldn’t let him sulk like a kicked puppy in the middle of a smoothie bar. If you look through the tag you can find some super cute headcanon and fics.
Okay. Here’s the big dog around campus. My OTP. I don’t think I’ve ever invested in as much work and love into a ship like I’ve done Talisto. I love them so much. They got me through some of the hardest times in my life. They still do. And fans of the ship have helped me pull this baby out of the port and into the high seas like nobody’s business. I’ve been asked this often so I have some answers HERE and HERE. Sorry they’re a little long but I just can’t express how much I love it. Its complex, constantly changing, and would require a deep level of love, understanding, and forgiveness for both sides. Not only that, but this is a relationship that would have to overcome a lot or differences. Its evolving, its passionate, and it has so much potential. Who needs canon when we have imagination. The amount of work I’ve seen come out of this fandom for these two character, who are on totally opposite sides of the spectrum, always makes me think of the two in some new interesting way. I love the idea of Talia, the cold, strict and loyal princess falling for an absolute dork she deemed embarrassing and seeing him to be something worth while. I adore the idea of Mephisto slowly seeing how amazing Talia is and realizing she has so much love to give. The idea of these two finding understanding within each other and opening up a whole new world together is so wonderful. Their families have been broken, and these kids have been through so much. There’s just something about them all coming together and becoming a family; finding love. That’s so special to me.
I’ll stop here because I’m getting in waaaay to deep. I hope this helped you in some way anon!
