Tell 'em, Bugs.

Okay, let's see...

Desdomeh is the obvious portmanteau, for the reasons you yourself outlined. Deskyl is a more argumentative, Beatrice and Benedick-style affair.

I say affair because the only ship anyone should ever ship is Desdenelle/Rina/Randa/A vat of pureed watermelon/Clothing that seems to be primarily metal rings held together with thin leather or PVC belts/One of those strange Japanese body pillow efforts with a picture of a galloping horse on it/A small painted wooden duck/Seven copies of the Zambezi mod for Civilisation V/A stuffed penguin/A non-stuffed penguin/Neshomeh while dressed as a penguin or similar large seabird/A slightly used electric toothbrush/And some chap I met in the mess hall this morning called Bernard.

Shipping the PPC by Huinesoron on 2014-02-19 11:44:00 UTC Reply

Who's up for some shipping?

As all (some? None?) know, next month will be the PPC Community Shipfic Fest, in which people write horribly OOC stories about each other and generally have a good time.

This is not that.

Rather, this is an attempt to make that more fun, by compiling a list of ships to laugh over. The story-writing - and the signing up to agree to be in stories - will happen in March, as scheduled.

When the very first Shipfest happened, it started with a list: a list of the pairings (and more-than-pairings) Bjam and BeautyID shipped on the Board. Of course, practically everyone on that list has since departed (seriously, looking down the list... the remaining people I can see are me, Kaitlyn, Dann, AW, Araeph... yep, I think that's it. And Kaitlyn never posts, and AW only just came back.)

So let's make another one. That way we can use it as a basis (and expand on it) for the Shipficfest - and can write it now without it getting tangled up in the stories-and-permission, er, tangle. (I'm... sort of assuming no-one will seriously object to seeing '[Their name]/[Someone else's name]: because [reason]'? Am I wrong?)

The rules... are simple:

-List your PPC Community ships - people in the PPC community (not organisation) that you totally think are/should be together.
-Give reasons for your ships. Otherwise it's just a random name generator.
-Revenge shipping is perfectly okay!
-Shipping someone with yourself - if you're not actually in a relationship - should be avoided; that's a bit creepy.
-No stories. This is just a list. Stories is next month.
-Have fun! It's a ludicrous exercise in ridiculousness, after all.

I'll post my list in a reply, to keep things neat. And I'll do so tomorrow, so that anyone who has vehement and violent objections to their name being listed next to a slash can speak up, in which case we'll just scrap the thread and do it in March.

I've been lurking for so long, I'm not sure I'm shippable by Tomash on 2014-02-22 02:26:00 UTC Reply

No, that isn't a challenge. Or is it?

Also, Bryn/VM/Miah, since they're the (newly expanded) returnbies club.

Mind you, these are the (mild) crackships. (I say 'mild' because that really long one Wobbles wrote with the penguins far outstrips anything else).

Neshomeh/Wiki, because reasons. No, seriously, there are reasons. With all the time and effort she spends making sure it makes its way towards achieving perfection...well, there must be something there, right? Right? /hides/

And, of course, Boarders/Shipping. Look how much fun we're having! Almost...too much fun, if you know what I mean...

Since I've only been here a month (Wow, really? It seems a lot longer...), I doubt anyone would really care about crackshipping me with anyone else.

But I don't care! :D I'm gonna just do some ships based on names alone. The ship names are very important, after all!

Wozzektheclown: Just because it sounds funny. Seriously, that's it.

'Cause you've both got bird names.

I admit it'd work better if you could just helpfully translate your name into Elvish, Storme Hawk.

We do??? by Storme Hawk on 2014-02-19 19:34:00 UTC Reply

and, err I tried to find an elvish translation of Storme Hawk, but the best I could get (after five minutes searching Google) was Hurofion in Quenya. Knowing my luck, I've probably murdered the entire language by doing that but hey.

Someone said Elvish? by Huinesoron on 2014-02-20 09:37:00 UTC Reply

Fion is definitely-probably 'hawk' in Quenya, but I'm not sure what 'huro' is meant to be... for 'storm', you'd want raumo (the sound of a storm) or ucco (rain, with etymological links to 'bull' - so probably heavy). If you want 'Hawk from the storm', you'd use an ablative ending -llo, which gives Fionraumollo/Fionuccollo (that looks kind of faux-Italian). You could also have 'Hawk of the storm'/'Storm's hawk', which would take the genetive, which vanishes - so Fionraumo/Fionucco (or, indeed, Uccofion/Raumofion). Or the possessive, which gives Fionraumova/Fionuccova.

Out of all of those, probably the most pleasing to Elvish ears is Fionraumo, though Fionucco also works, sort of.

And Sindarin? Well, alagos is 'storm of wind', but there's no known word for 'hawk'... you could be an eagle, but I've done that already. A crow? That's corch, or craban if you want to be an evil one. Or, rather delightfully, you could be a kingfisher, heledir.

Thankfully Sindarin doesn't use cases much, so we can just mash the words together: Corchalagos, Crabalagos, Alagorch, Alagraban [These two because c mutates to g in compounds], or with the kingfisher, Alacheledir, Helediralagos. A lot of those are too long, though - I'd probably go with Alagorch.

... yeah, I'd stick with Quenya, really.

For some reason Huinesoron/Neshomeh seems like a really good brotp. Mostly because of the wheelhouse joke. And the number of times they've backed each other up.

Has anyone done Neshomeh/Phobos? Because that's canon.

And I might as well take this time to say that IntelligentAirhead and I are in that fuzzy place between a relationship and friendship (it's the distance thing), so yeah.

I should get that checked before Phobos comes after me.

Other ships, though:

firemagic/Sergio Turbo, because the two of them have collaborated on anime-related missions.

IntelligentAirhead/firemagic, because the two could then discuss things in a bubble of logic.

DawnFire/hermioneofvulcan, because Star Trek and rambling.

DawnFire/Outhra, because good ideas (they often have them)

And since why not: DawnFire/IntelligentAirhead, because 1) name structure, and 2) if we were the Star Trek triumvirate, Dawn would be the Kirk to my Bones and Intel's Spock.

There was discussion of me/Dawn last year. by hermione of vulcan on 2014-02-20 03:22:00 UTC Reply

I believe it was World-Jumper who brought it up. Still, it holds true this year. After all, she inadvertently convinced me to get into the Avengers and now I have an emotionally unstable Norse god living in my brain. So there's that.

I would revenge ship you with Dawn, but it has already been done and it's hardly a revenge ship if you're totally fine with it.

And speaking of things that have already been done, way ahead of you on hs/Neshomeh. If you look up last year's shipfic fest, you'll find something I wrote. No, I'm not linking it. I wrote quite a bit and looking back it's all very embarrassing and weird. But still, I ship it too.

Yes, that was me. by World-Jumper on 2014-02-20 06:58:00 UTC Reply

At the time, you two were chatting up a storm, getting each other into fandoms and planning secret things. What sort of secret things, I do not know, but secret indeed. Whatever it was,you two were (and probably still are) the best of internet fiends. I had to ship that in my first shipfic games!

Kaitlyn/VixenMage: because we all know why she’s really their shipper (don’t we? No? No, me neither. It just sounded good)

Ekyl/Outhra: because they are both so fond of making extremely long, detailed posts about very minor points.

Techno-Dann/World-Jumper: The hyphen-ation!

Al’s Waiter/Kaitlyn: because they’re both so very old, and I’m pretty sure Kaitlyn was an AW fangirl back in the day…

Sergio Turbo/SeaTurtle: for some reason, I’m incapable of remembering which is which. Must be the S-T thing.

Autumn68/sonofheaven176: name_number - coincidence, or conspiracy?

Lily Winterwood/DawnFire: because they so completely remind me of each other.

VixenMage/DawnFire: CamelCase - the ship!

Araeph/Neshomeh: Red pens of the ~~world~~ PPC, unite!

Lily Winterwood/Ekyl: Multiverse Moniship.

Was that a dig? :P by Ekyl on 2014-02-19 17:12:00 UTC Reply

Just pulling your chain, no worries (my posts aren't extremely long...).

Doctorlit/Neshomeh: because I can't say "the wiki".

Is it a dig if it's true? by Huinesoron on 2014-02-19 17:38:00 UTC Reply

(You've started shortening them in recent weeks; when I first wrote the list around Christmastime, it was absolutely true)

It can be! :P by Ekyl on 2014-02-19 17:40:00 UTC Reply

I'm not offended or anything, just wasn't sure if I was being sniped at.

(I don't remember if I was particularly doing anything here around Christmastime, but you're right, in the past I have tended towards wordiness.)

Again, not an actual objection, this post's just clarifying. :P

Hmm... by firemagic on 2014-02-19 12:53:00 UTC Reply

Let's see...

Lielac and Rin because of that tilde thing

IntelligentAirhead and Lily Winterwood because they're writing fic together now.

Wow, a quick crtl-f turns up 3/4 of those usernames haven't popped up on the first page of the Board...
Am I doing this right? by Desdendelle on 2014-02-19 12:48:00 UTC Reply

I ship VM and Bryn because they're both returnbies who returned to the Board recently.

I approve by Sevenswans on 2014-02-19 16:27:00 UTC Reply

They couldn't have planned their returns better. :D
You are. by Huinesoron on 2014-02-19 14:08:00 UTC Reply

Though you're forcing me to remove that one from my list... ;)

More, then. by Desdendelle on 2014-02-19 16:54:00 UTC Reply

Someone already said that, but it bears repeating: Sergio Turbo x Firemagic OTP :P
DawnFire x Firemagic because fire.

In that case... by firemagic on 2014-02-19 18:33:00 UTC Reply

Sergio Turbo/desdendelle because you're in the consecutive time zones and play World of Tanks together.

And... by Sergio Turbo on 2014-02-19 19:42:00 UTC Reply

I retaliate by closing the circle with desdendelle/firemagic.

How about Sergio/Firemagic? :P by DawnFire on 2014-02-19 22:42:00 UTC Reply

You've just been in the same shipping thread, after all...

Occam's razor, everyone. by Lily Winterwood on 2014-02-20 00:43:00 UTC Reply

Sergio Turbo/firemagic/Desdendelle.

A cuddly sandwich of anime and magical girls and bespectacled folks.

And, in conclusion, by Lily Winterwood on 2014-02-19 18:02:00 UTC Reply

Dawn Fire/Desdendelle, because they lived in the same country once and everyone loves a soldier. ;P

A response. by Desdendelle on 2014-02-19 18:07:00 UTC Reply

Lily Winterwood x DawnFire, because DF is part Canadian and Lily has Winter in her name.

Speaking of shipping Dawn with people, by Lily Winterwood on 2014-02-19 18:10:00 UTC Reply

DawnFire/Time Engineer. They know each other IRL, I hear.

I would also suggest DawnFire/DemonFiren because that sounds awesome but I haven't seen the latter around and it would be awkward, so no.

Wow, I'm kind of late to this party. but I totally second ii (nm by Kittythekatty on 2014-02-20 03:30:00 UTC Reply

Out of curiosity... by DawnFire on 2014-02-20 15:12:00 UTC Reply

...which one are you seconding?

Oops, sorry. Dawnfire/Time Engineer (nm) by Kittythekatty on 2014-02-21 03:32:00 UTC Reply

Cool :) (nm) by DawnFire on 2014-02-21 13:11:00 UTC Reply

I'm just gonna toss in... by DawnFire on 2014-02-19 22:41:00 UTC Reply

...Lily Winterwood/Desdendelle, because you've both just shipped me with people.

(In terms of DemonFiren, I've been told that our names get confused with one another's before. Do with that what you will.)

Also, totally shipping Lily/Outhra, because they've collaborated in the past. Also, Pretzel/Kittythekatty, because I saw Pretzel's name up earlier and know Kitty and I have no memory of them ever really talking. That's an awesome basis for a ship, wouldn't you say? :P
