They say shippers are made not born but I beg to differ. I’ve been shipping mo-foes since I was fucking 6 lol. I didn’t even know what it was called at the time. Hell I don’t think they even called it anything back then. Fuck I’m old....
But these are some of my earliest ships I can recall. They’re might be some stuff im forgetting but yeah these were couples I shipped before I became a dirty fujoshi :,)
The first set of the Ghibli Keyblades are finished! Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Princess Mononoke, Ponyo and Howl's Moving Castle!
