Valentine Special 2025 ships

Heyo, it's already midnight where I am, so Valentine's Day has passed, but I still wanted to celebrate it. Valentine's Day is weird for me because I am Aro&Ace, so I never really get to appreciate it. Every year, it just comes and passes, and I feel nothing, even though I do like the aesthetic.

But this week, I had the brilliant idea that even though I can't celebrate it conventionally, I can still do something for all the pairings and ships I have come to love over the years. So, I drew eleven ships that had helped me during my most challenging moments, from when I was a child to the present. They are ordered in no particular order but rather what I got on paper in my sketchbook.

Idk. Maybe this way me my fellow Aromantics shippers can still enjoy the holiday.

Which ship do you like best? I would love to know~ (even if it is simply from the technical perspective)

From the first panel to the last, we have:

Page 1

Kirfluff (is extra special to me as a fic I wrote for the pairing, including many other franchise characters, which led me to keep writing for fun and posting it online. Without I would not have the boost of confidence that I do now about my writing)

Metadede (Who doesn't love a good ship with a warrior's bond? They're hilarious)

Isafrin (my most recent ship. They make me soft and cry at the same time. Like this pairing adds a lot ISAT's story and manages to also be very entertaining and heartfelt)

Sonadow (I got into the ship before I was even into Sonic. There was even a long-ass fic I found back when I still read on Fanfiction.net that I reread every year because I found it so funny. I definitely enjoy the modern Sonadow writing more than a decade ago)

Snufmin (perfect balance between yearning and the needing space and the freedom to adventure. I want to read more of this ship)

Page 2

Ravioli(nk) (The name alone already makes it worth it. I also have an unholy amount of fics saved from this ship. They are the literal roommates meme)

Vidow (a classic. I enjoyed this one even before I got into Zelda. Like I was reading Four Swords without having any clue what the lore was or what the fuck was going on.)

Reguri (This was named Namelessshipping and Orginalshipping back in the day. Too tired to do research rn. But I think the difference lies in the manga and game versions. I prefer the game versions, personally)

Purpleshipping {Kieran x mc) (A little backstory: this is just the mc from Scarlet and Violet that I made an NB version for, which became their own person after writing a fic. Here, they are exchanging an Applin with Kieran. For those who know the custom, you know, you know. A friend of mine named this ship)

Shadowpeach (the most divorced couple I have ever come across. I remember back when this was considered a crack ship. Ah, good times. The character depictions were very different back then, too. I depicted them in their friend's era, but still. Btw Macaque is laughing at Sun Wukong's antics but I think it accidentally looks like he is laughing at Sun Wukong rather than with him. Oh well, it wouldn't be too out of character for seasons 1-3 Mac)

Marink (not a ship I read about a lot, but it hurt me so much when I played Link's Awakening for the first time. Everytime I think of Marin I feel sad)

"Feliz cumple! (Happy Bday!) " One shot. Its out!

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

"Some years have passed since their last trip to area zero. Flore and their friends get to mature and start new paths, and even get to know each other better making deeper bonds, now that their lifes are not in constant risk.

Their 17th birthday has arrived, and the (For 2nd time), Blue Berry League champion, Kieran, their boyfriend, convinced Cyrano to give Flore and their paldean friends permission to stay a week in Blue balerry academy to celebrate the special day."

Its inspired by @cochineal-leviat work in ao3

If somebody was waiting 4 this (Alongside Levi cause I spammed in hs dm since sunday, hype motivates me) its already out! This is a fucking milestone sice i never broke the k words line, and this has moreless 15 fucking k

I know its august 18th and not 14th as the notes say, but can we pretend that its still my bday? I did my best

I did my best whit this. Imma diie for a week and start the Noelle (My oc ) one shot, yes. (Stalk my blog 2 know her, I have her lore, design, fun facts and a sneak peak of te writing)

Ill go rest, bye! (Please, imma need rest)

mostly braveapple (apo/katie) but also lowk braveclipse thoughts because the devil works hard but i work harder

listen i invented braveclipse (apo/katie/cherri) and then immediately decided to talk abt the ship of the triad that will likely end up the least popular because my power is inifinite

anyway.

go, my thoughts!

(also my apologies, I have only watched Cherri's bannerfall thus far and so my grasp on Katie is probably on the weaker side)

braveapple is deeply intriguing to me because the two of them are ostensibly equals, (unlike fruitblossom and katiefire), with them both being knights of the red kingdom, and "knights" in quotation marks because neither of them have been knighted yet

they are both deeply loyal, as well!!

but of course, the more you look at it, the less true that becomes

Apo's loyalty lies first and foremost with Cherri and Soluna, and Katie's lies with the Red Kingdom

Katie is a trainee, and Apo, for some reason, has been entrusted with the princess of her besieged kingdom

(also sidenote: either Apo is lying about not being knighted (im thinking because of guilt or attempting to obfuscate their own strength, despite talking up the strength of Soluna itself??) OR the moon knights are some kind of special group that are not actually knights but can be them. idk Apo WHAT are you hiding)

there is a fundamental gap in experience, and (while they don't seem to realize it) Cherri has been stepping on that gap repeatedly

(just the way Apo reacted...yeah she's a LOT more competent than her apparent lack of title would imply, I am Calling It)

and with the way the two of them interacted and Apo spoke about her...I think their dynamic would be a constant dance of reaching out and bumping into their differences, or having their pride or issues accidentally coming into conflict through someone else's actions (read:Cherri)

Apo, from what I could gather, feels like a character who is desperately lonely at her core, and I'd hazard a guess that Katie's something similar

idk. I can just see them training together and joking together and trying so so hard to be close and...it's hard

I'm thinking they'd be the first duo on braveclipse to actually have a Thing beyond just crushing/pining

probably not spoken of or commite but...

I think they'd flirt and tease and spar and Apo might find herself reaching to brush Katie's sweat-soaked hair out of her eyes and lingering just a little too long and surely that flush on those freckled cheeks is just exertion

and maybe Katie feels a little bit like she knows what she's doing when Apo's by her side

and maybe they walk side by side, almost close enough for Katie's shoulder to brush Apo's arm

and maybe Katie has some scar on a hand or a shin from some tumble she took as a child and Apo calls it her first battle scar, and tells her it means she was brave

@glacierruler @v-bot-yay @candyballofdoom hope it was alright to tag y'all!

This apo stream is so good for braveclipse
