Would love hearing Valentine hcs about the rarepairs
I have so many rare pairs from so many fandoms under my belt but using the rare pairs from this post, in order >
Azulanette
My beloved rare pair that I can't write for to save my life. I don't know if you've seen ML and/or ATLA but these two are 100%, without a doubt, in love (they don't even live in the same universe)
I completely doubt that Azula would use pet names but Marinette canonically uses them so I've always loved the idea that Marinette calls her "Lotus"
Going off of WereDads, I'm sure the Dupain-Chengs would lovingly accept Azula into their family.
Constant reassurance from both of them. They have late nights "would you still love me if I was a worm" conversations. They both need it.
VaniLily
Blood/water toxic yuri! They've never met!
They support each other, through thick and thin, they're together. They both hold the powers of healing and destruction and they're so in love.
Since Lily has spent so much time in the church, I doubt that she's had many times when she's been allowed to have chaotic thoughts. Then you have Vanica and she encourages all the bad ideas.
As enemies, Vanica loves being hit with the Holy Fist of Love and will try to goad Lily to use it.
MereoNessa
Under rated pairing I swear! I remember when I first joined the fandom, I thought I would be bombarded with MereoNessa shippers but there's hardly any. Imagine my surprise when I saw I wrote the second MereoNessa fic on AO3.
Two heavy drinkers with cat motifs! Mereoleona canonically has a high alcohol tolerance, higher than Vanessa's, so I like to think that if they were to go out drinking together, Vanessa turns into a clingy cat. Head butts galore.
Mereoleona humors Vanessa and will bridal carry her if she's drunk.
Mereoleona is Vanessa's personal heater. It's an excuse to cuddle and they love each other.
BowaJohn
I don't know if you've seen To Be Hero X but this is a couple that I first started shipping as a joke, then it quickly became not a joke. This is because I know they're in love (they have never made eye contact nor even said a word to each other).
I think that, like Queen, Bowa hasn't had many moments in her life where she was able to enjoy something cute so having the Johnnies around is very nice for her. She loves Big Johnny a lot but will never show it in public.
Whenever I think about these two, I always think about that yellow post. This is mostly because Little Johny's flower motif is a sunflower and I like to think that in the universe that they are actually dating, she didn't have a favorite color to begin with but now it's yellow because it reminds her of Johnny.
They both wear crop tops and baggy clothes, they're a clothes sharing couple. I will die on this hill.
I brought up this point a lot, but Johnny wants to be stronger and he gets along with women around him. Bowa is the most muscular woman in the cast so I like to think think that he would like to refer to her as his "greatest inspiration."
Johnny is one of the few people who's seen Bowa smile in person and Bowa is one of the few people who's seen Johnny frown in person.
CharGrey
Wholesome blue yuri, my beloved. I don't often think about wholesome yuri but these two are so cute.
They both have issues in the past with their appearance that has led to both of them hiding/obscuring it in some way or another but when they're together, they can feel free to express themselves.
Charlotte's briars now make her think of Grey and she hates them less.
Grey likes to turn into Charlotte to get more courage to do something.
I loved this idea you brought up earlier and in another life when Grey joined the Blue Rose Knights instead, they're peak-> Charlotte: "who ate my food, I swear I'll ki-" Grey: "it was me." Charlotte: "kiss you and make sure you're okay. Are you eating enough?
CharLily
I got a new pairing and by new I mean not even 24 hours old. Fresh off the presses new. I'm passing the nun around like a blunt and totally not projecting my own experiences with my sexuality onto her. But they're water x nature, both with a flower motif. It's like the universe wanted me to ship them.
Had Lily not joined the church, she would've been a Blue Rose Knight, partially because she admired Charlotte so much but also because this would be a good squad that plays into her strengths and would feel comfortable to her.
Charlotte loves it when Lily uses the Holy Fist of Love. They both punch pushy men.
(Alluding to a moment in the manga but nothing explicit) I like to think that Lily and Charlotte had actually met before Lily went to the church. They could've been together but Charlotte was too focused on trying to break her curse (since the curse had to be broken by "a man" and not "a person") that it didn't work out.
