This blog because i’m having second thoughts on self shipping:

[trivial-selfships]

Here's a tentative f/o list:

Adaman and Rika from Pokemon. Xu Jun from No Doubt in Us, Haruka Nanase from Free!, and Lotor from Voltron

When he still reacts like every kiss is completely unforeseen 💋 Hehe. It’s true! Just gotta give him a moment to buffer & remember we are married! 🤭

Art by me 🥰 The style is inspired by that cute Disney short Paperman ✨

[trivial-selfships]

The artstyle looks exactly like the disney artstyle. I honestly thought she was an actual character. Then again, i didn’t watch the movie.

What 50k dollars does

Finally finished this 😭, I was laughing so much bro

[mia-ships]

Oh how I remember this, I wanna redo this one day with the Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee designs

[trivial-selfships]

I’d love to see the updated version. I really like seeing your artwork improve. You improve every piece you make.

Artist is @mia-ships not mine btw. This is hers.

What is a girl to do? Pantalone, Alhaitham, Wriothesley, Zhongli, Thoma, and Diluc! Genshin please! I already have too many possible suitors on the Honkai side! I don’t need you to add more. Also holy shit Flins is hot. I’m not gonna go back Genshin. No matter how many hot men you add. Kill me now!

If you're writing anything involving cons, scams, heists, or morally questionable characters who are very good at lying, here are some free resources I've been using for research. Saving you the "why is this in my search history" anxiety.

1. The FBI's Famous Cases & Criminals archive (fbi.gov/history/famous-cases) has detailed breakdowns of real fraud cases, Ponzi schemes, and confidence operations. The language they use is clinical and precise, which is perfect for getting the procedural details right.

2. The FTC Consumer Sentinel Network publishes annual reports on the most common fraud tactics in the US. Great for understanding how modern scams actually work and what makes people fall for them.

3. The Smithsonian's American Art Museum has a free digital collection of forgery case studies. If your character forges documents or art, this is gold.

4. Court Listener (courtlistener.com) is a free legal database where you can read actual court transcripts from fraud trials. Want to know how a real con artist talks under oath? This is where you find out.

5. The Internet Archive's collection of old newspaper crime sections. Search for "confidence man" or "swindle" in papers from the 1920s through 1960s and you'll find incredible real stories that would feel too dramatic for fiction.

Bonus: The Psychology of Fraud section on the Association for Psychological Science website has accessible articles about why people trust, how deception works cognitively, and what makes someone a convincing liar. Essential reading if you want your con artist characters to feel psychologically real.

Reblog to save for later. Your WIP will thank you.

Jun Xu - ONA: No Doubt In Us

Finally, I know it’s late, I’m sorry. But it’s here! Lance and Mia’s anniversary drawing! This is actually a redraw from a piece I did back in 2023!

This is now!

And this is 2023!

cuuuuute

So, here’s the thing I always get asked from fandom friends because they’re so confused with Lance (pokemon) do I self ship with him? Hell no. Is he my favorite pokemon character? Yes! Maybe. At this point I have no idea. But it’s like, just because I have him as my favorite character does not mean I like him romantically. I just like him because Dragonite, cape, and he’s not afraid to deck a bitch. That’s why I have him as a favorite character. I’d rather self ship myself with Adaman or Rika if I were to self ship with a Pokemon character really. It’s the same thing with DC. Yes, Nightwing/Dick Grayson is my favorite character, but will I self ship him? No! He belongs to Koriand’r, not me or an s/i of me. Get out of here with that.

Holy shit! This blog is a wasteland! Anyways, F/o list is still wip. There’s too many and not enough stuff for my f/o’s. Certain f/o’s are literal abounding fields of rice, no need to find anything for them, and other f/o’s are like trying to find an airpod you lost hours ago! Mainline is, f/o list is on hold. Oh my gosh, it’s so hard. Anyways, I am the sharing type, but I think my f/o’s are too obsecure that it doesn’t really matter anyway. So ye.

[trivial-selfships]

I feel compelled to draw s/i's, but I am a coward, so I don't wanna post, but it feels like it's imperative for selfshippers to draw their s/i's though. ugh.

[trivial-selfships]

I feel obligated to draw ocs for my s/i’s, but I’m not really comfortable with putting up my drawings online. Mm… I’m more of a writer than an artist, I’ll admit, but I do feel obligated though.

[trivial-selfships]

F/o list may wanna take a seat back. Life is in the way.

@trivial-writing’s self ship blog is here. Here I am. F/o list in full coming in tomorrow 💜💜💜💜
