Ship The Character Above You

so i have two! but i'll post on the one that will be difficult for anyone after me to enjoy because he's just an angry country boy. and i present to you and ben, said angry country boy. remember that game where ben was trapped in puck's house? that's what i have in mind mostly, because that was too good and too amusing for me. think about what if one day, ben was like semi-released but still kind of chained up? it'd be a whole beauty and the beast scenario, except 100x more redneck and hillbilly. i think ben might grow on puck eventually if he's around, and since he's kind of like...you know, not very knowledgeable on the whole romance thing, he very well might catch some feelings for him. unfortunately, considering ben's position, do you even want to have someone like this catch feels for you? i guess it could be used to his advantage to get out of there and be able to go home or at the very least, run away somewhere else. 

which puck would stupidly go for. he's not the brightest and if he grows to like you, he trusts you and doesn't cognitively think: wow, maybe they didn't like being tortured and fed slop and really wanted out and never liked me. meaning if ben did juke him and managed to get out, he would be so heartbroken and angry about it and if he ever saw him again..well, he'd probably cry and try to kill him, but at least he'd cry? 

i can't say he's the best at romance, i think he tries but it'd be really dumb things like..ordinary hillbilly culture. you bring someone a daisy, sit with them by the hog's wash, catch fire flies..that kind of stuff. i think he might even sneak into ben's lair to sit with him. he sure as hell wouldn't release him and go against his parent's word, but he'd sneak around just a bit.
just a bit.

my honorable mention is rane! the interaction they had made me laugh loudly because he was like 'seriously..' when ben came along. now with them, i don't think relationships are a huge possibility..(we're both bottoms what do we do!), but friendship and slight fling stuff maybe? sort of like, wow we got drunk at that party and kissed....well that was weird, wanna do it again? and then later on being like why did we do that. they're both kind of sad individuals in my opinion and sad individuals who, i don't think want to build one another up for long-term like relationships seem to be, but who could be a way to pass time. an ending with friendship, likely!! maybe.. rane has the temper, but he can be tolerable whenever he's chill and if ben could deal with the rude tone he has.

@NP: go wild! if puck isn't your style, i got a few extra losers

whats the best to go with one socially withdrawn and shut off individual?? and one from a farm?? two of them... this isnt necessarily romantic but like, these two definitely vibe. even if it starts off as just a foot of space between them... they both seem to be the type to slowly grow on one another and as farm/village folk, theres nothing better than them sharing the work throughout the day to me... and uh.. if slasher means killer like i think it does... well aika's very good at that ouo. i just feel like they could just run a farm together you know? and im sure he's appreciate aika's protectiveness of the farm... she's very good at making sure nobody gets into her spaces. she's also a little bit moronsexual so like she would not care if you wanna think of this as romantic

to np: feel free to pick anyone, just pay attention to over18/minor in their tags! no minors with adults!! 

This dose NOT have to be romantic at all if you dont want it to be! However I think that Colette and Lucien would be a good pairing. Now now hear me out. Colette is a detective but shes not very good at being a detective and she has followed her dad to the scene of crimes. Of course she usually isnt allowed near it if its a murder scene and has to wait by or in the car. I can see her seeing Lucian as he's leaving the scene of the crime and walking up to him and asking him if hes seen any suspicious people recently. Of course having no clue he was the one that caused the murder. She would then totally ask for his help and I can see them bumping into eachother more. And Colette decides it means they were kent to be partners. (She reads alot of Sherlock Holmes stories.) 

So she drags him around on her cat finding and Burgler chasing "Cases." His cold attitude dosnet deter her and she takes that as him being shy rather then him not being interested. Of course I can see her getting herself in trouble and needing help and if Lucien helps her she takes that as even MORE of a sign they were destined to be partners. She probably calls him "Watson" If he wont give her his name

damn, what's up with Brown being a bitch to young people.... disgusting.

ANYWAYS. I can see Brown having a bit of a mother-daughter relationship with Thermidor?? though... clearly not in an extremely healthy sense considering how Brown is in canon rifp. Thermidor would likely be a bit intimidated by her due to all the canine imagery/symbolism surrounding the older woman, but I believe that - somehow - they could make things work. Brown would sure at least tolerate Thermidor for being quiet and reflective, and Thermidor would likely appreciate having someone who somehow seems to always be supportive of her attempts to explore the world around her.

even then, there'd probably be a pretty toxic element surrounding them, seeing that Brown really wasn't that good of a mother lmao. she'd see Thermidor's sweetness as weak and try to squeeze it out of her, no matter what it takes. she'd swear that she means well - because she wants her charge to "prepare herself for the real world" or some bullshit like that - but in reality, she likely just wants to repeat the same power grip that she had with her own daughter. ouch. maybe she'd oscillate between being a sweet, loving mother figure and a total bitch, or she'd manipulate Thermidor's own kindness for her own needs.

either way, the two would have a tight dynamic... but one that likely proves to be stifling instead of snug. maaaybe it could be complicated a bit by Brown gaining genuine maternal attachment towards Thermidor, but that's like. their only hope of their dynamic not being hideously skewed towards one side lmao.

Brown is meant to be human; this tab is her urban legend variant, but it may be helpful for providing context - as well as inspiration for how your character might view her. (if you want to know her appearance, check her Human tab!!) you're welcome to use her for platonic dynamics, flings... hell... even adversarial dynamics (because ik how much of a bitch she is wheeze). just refrain from giving her a legitimate romance because she has major trust/commitment issues from Skinner, so I don't personally see her really getting over THAT anytime soon. :"))))

if she doesn't catch your fancy, you can also use

• Dolores (strictly platonic/adversarial because she's aro ace)
• M. Pourife (platonic/adversarial preferred, but since his orientation isn't specified... romance isn't out of the question... ;))
• Skinner (same as M. Pourife)
• Fitzgerald (strictly platonic/adversarial, as he's likely aro ace, and he's pretty romance-repulsed)

bonus points if you base your ideas off prior interactions, but I'm really not that picky lmao.

   - oooh yea..... honestly I can see Brown and Diluvi becoming good friends over time through an "opposites attract" dynamic haha. Brown definitely at least respects Diluvi for not belittling her or her interests, as well as that one fossil the latter gave her in one of their interactions. honestly I gotta commend Diluvi for being so patient with all of Brown's bullshit too.... maybe someday Brown feels confident enough to open up to Diluvi about her trust issues, and the dynamic can take a more sentimental approach? who knows. for now the two would probably just like hanging around each other, and I'm cool with that.

and yea!! forum games Brown, unless stated otherwise, is like.... basically alone since Walker got married to Smithson and ran off with him beforehand lmfao. she could definitely use some platonic company, and I'm down for her achieving some form of peace before she dies. :0c

Ooh I think Skylar would get along well with Sasha- mostly as friends since Sasha has a girlfriend, but I could see them as romantic in an AU or honestly even in a poly relationship involving Candy too. They're both creative, artsy and have an interest in fashion- Sasha is an aspiring fashion designer and I could see her designing things specifically with Skylar in mind, and possibly Skylar using her social media following to help promote her, though Sasha would be insistent on doing something for her in return ghjfks, she wouldn't want to feel like she's using Skylar for her platform. I;m imagining them like... collabing on a project to promote a wildlife charity through fashion and donating profits to that charity and I'm soft.....They also have the whole "went through a lot in childhood but is determined to still live their life" thing in common, and I feel like they could bond over that.

A couple options for the next poster: Hades, Wisteria, or Shane (romantic/platonic is fine, feel free to ignore Hades/Shane's canon relationships the boys are bi so go nuts but Wisteria is a lesbian so pls only ship her romantically with fem-aligned characters!), though if you want to pick someone else feel free! Just pls follow their sexualities 

Odette... and Wisteria... Hanging out, being gay. Odette is pretty closed off from other people, but honestly whenever a woman shows her a shred of affection, whether it's intended to be romantic or platonic, she sort of melts because gdi it's hard to get that where she lives and considering her circumstances :') I can see Wisteria making her a little wool scarf, and she would absolutely treasure it, considering she lives for all things soft. And speaking of, Wisteria's hair also looks soft... Odette would secretly like touching it u_u

There's also that they're both afraid of storms, though. Or, just thunder and lightning in Odette's case, but... it's basically the same thing, so who cares. This could potentially open up for an albeit brief heart-to-heart. Brief because Odette is unfeeling.

I think the only thing between them that would hurt things is, of course, Odette is sort of an ass and generally doesn't show too much emotion, which I feel like might get on Wisteria's nerves JUST A LITTLE BIT. Also, Odette isn't into sweets, so she'd reject the cookies Wisteria would make for her... Unfortunate...

@ NP: i'm fine with literally anything. romance, platonic, familial, hatred. all is good. you also don't have to ship odette if you don't have any ideas for her, so i'll just... shove some options under here.

• Otto [i am most okay with him being hated. you can beat the shit out of him if you want, because i like that.]
• Noel [not entirely opposed to romance, but... he's just a sad old man and only loves his daughter. your oc is second to him :'))))))]
• Hala [all is good. she's dying inside.]
• Maribelle[no romance for her, just because the way her age is listed is sort of tricky, though she's usually portrayed as a minor. be her friend. or enemy. or dad.]

I'd say after their interaction Charlotte wouldn't be against the idea of hanging out with Odette. Thing is, they're both pretty quiet and emotionless so it'd be REAL awkward at first with plenty of standing around and doing nothing. I think little by little, though, they both would start talking, whether out of obligation or just to get rid of the silence.
Charlotte takes after her father in terms of looking and acting tough but being pretty affectionate around someone she cares about. So I think once the two warm up to each other she'd be pretty open to holding hands or keeping a hand around Odette's waist, and knowing Odette I think she'd melt into those touches KEKEKEK. I could see them at some kinda... time travelling carnival that could be in their simultaneous world where Charlotte could win her some stuffed animals.
So they'd start out real awkward, but afterwards I think they'd make a pretty cute couple.

I have Charlotte here but anyone is fair game!

that's CUTE SCREECH

Now I've suggested a couple however I think Charlotte and Colette would make a cute couple whether romantically or just as friends. I get the feeling Charlotte MIGHT be just a little bit of a moron sexual meaning she has a fondness for morons XD Or at least not very bright people. I kinda feel she finds them cute. Colette is in no way a threat to Charlotte and I feel it would likely be a bit one-sided at first due to Charlotte's cold demeanor but I don't think that Colette would give up! She also has terrible luck and tends to get herself in trouble so maybe she would remind Charlotte of Ethan in away. Colette probably surprise attack hugs Charlotte when she can get a chance though its more likely she was detected 10 feet away and when they get closer Charlotte just pretends that Colette caught her off guard. She tries to follow Charlotte to see what she likes but always loses her but manages to find she likes pugs and starts trying to find pug themed items to give to her friend when shes not looking and slip it in her bag.

FairySugar

I think Colette and Lucy would be really adorable as friends. They'd probably be like sisters. Lucy would invite her to her house for a sleepover and get mad when her grandmother comes in and starts overfeeding their guest lol. Generally, Lucy would protect Colette like she's her sister and I feel like they'd get along really well.

(Sry I'm not the best writer but at least I get down the general idea)

ZuupMummy

I think Dorian would probably be like a big brother / teasing friend type of person for Lucy? dorian works with hybrids (aka, humanoid type people with animal characteristics) and absolutely adores them. he'd love to pet and mess with lucy's ears to tease her, but ofc would stop if she genuinely gets annoyed and doesnt like it. he'd be vvv overprotective of her even if she can protect herself. he likes being able to know he can protect his loved ones.
