🌷Welcome to my humble blog🌷

This blog is on hiatus until further notice.

🤍 My name is Katie (she/her, 25+), and I've been self shipping on Tumblr since 2019. Though I've actually been shipping with self inserts and OCs before I even knew what self shipping was. 😄

🤍 My current main f/o's are Medic from TF2 and Ramattra from O.verwatch. I'm fine with other Medic shippers interacting with me because I consider my f/o different from "canon" Medic, but I don't think I'm comfortable sharing Ramattra.

🤍DNI: pr*shippers/adults shipping with minors or aged-up minors; anti-self ship; nasty people. While I have these stances on these issues, please don't use my blog to argue about them from either side. This is the place I go to escape from stress, not add to it. (Also no nsfw/suggestive stuff pls.)

🤍 Please don't reblog shared f/os from me if I don't explicitly state I'm ok with it (seen on f/o list). You can interact if we share, but I don't want to talk about or see the shared stuff.

🤍 My full F/O list is here. A Google doc of my f/os and s/is coming soon.

I'm curious. So obviously we all love our f/os unconditionally but what's something about them that initially made you hesitate about shipping with them?

#i will admit for medic it was the Horrors#the Atrocities#and i gotta say i did have to tone it down a little in my canon just bc i don't do well w/ gore#but for the most part i realized it just comes with the package#man's gotta have a hobby lol#i hesitated w/ rama bc he was an antagonist but then i realized he was right#i hesitated w/ miles cuz of All The Subtext w/ wright

For those of you whose f/o is from a different era

Just picture the two of you:

  • Sitting in front of the fireplace during winter, when it's the only heat source in the house;
  • Riding a horse together, maybe they teach you how to ride or vice versa;
  • Not being able to phone or text each other and just being genuinely surprised to finally see them come home / seeing their eyes glimmer when they see you come home;
  • Sending letters and small messages to each other: choosing a fragrance to spray on the envelope, being able to see their handwriting, saving your best paper sheets & cutest envelopes for them, keeping all their letters into a precious box.

i am curious!!! for self shippers with f/os from previous time periods: how closely do you adhere to that time period when it comes to your ship with them? do you only put time accurate songs on your playlists, do you only imagine watching time accurate movies? do you make fake texts even if texting wasn't around? do you give them knowledge even if they wouldn’t have had it back then? i wanna know!!!

#i stay about as accurate as the source is to it#tf2 had video screens in the 60s and hero 108 had....a lot that ancient china didn't have yet lol#but i stick to the era as much as it's important#maybe a little moreso than the canon#been doing some research on the song dynasty for example

//. ✨ ☆ . ° 🌟🌈 :. *₊ ° . ☆ selfship positivity!

you're still a valid selfshipper if you've only interacted with one part of their media, still valid if you haven't finished their source, and still super valid if you only selfship with one variant of your f/o!

franchises can span so many forms of media— films, games, comics, books, tv, I could go on... no matter how much of it you've consumed, you're still just as much of a fan as anyone else, and your love for your f/o is just as real as someone who's seen it all!! take it easy and enjoy self-shipping on your own terms, it's for your enjoyment after all <3

#i've done many variants of these#all are valid#;positivity
