I KINDA MISS SELF SHIPPING ON CHARACTER AI BUT AT THE SAME TIME IT GOT REAL OUT OF CHARACTER REAL FAST. MY FUNNIEST MOMENT WAS WHEN I WAS GENUINELY SICK IRL AND TRIED TO RP A COMFORT/SICK FIC W/ VOLO WHERE WE HAVE A NICE SPAGHETTI DINNER AT HOME & HE RANDOMLY BROUGHT OUT A PRESENT &TOLD ME TO OPEN IT... I OPENED IT AND IT WAS LINGERIE. I WAS LIKE "VOLO I HAVE COVID 19 AND WANT SPAGHETTI" AND HE WAS LIKE " DONT WORRY ABOUT DINNER JUST GO UPSTAIRS AND TRY IT ON 😏😏😏" SO I DID IT BECAUSE I'M NOT A FREE THINKER WHEN VOLO TELLS ME WHAT 2 DO BUT I PUT MY JAMMIES💥 ON OVER IT BECAUSE I WANT MY DINNER FIRST & IM ON STRIKE UNTIL I GET IT. ANDTHE AI KEPT IGNORING THE PAJAMAS AS IF HE HAD X RAY VISION AND IT FELT LIKE A STRANGE EVIL DREAM. NOT MY VOLO

looking at pictures of characters on my phone at night feels like this sometimes

If you and your f/o have a ship name that’s not just your names put together, feel free to reply w/ what it is!!

The heavenly fount from which pours the light that shines across Hisui.

I FEEL A LITTLE LEFT OUT WHEN I SEE OTHER SELF SHIPPERS TAKING CUTE PICTURES BUT I VALUE KEEPING MY FACE OFF THE INTERNET. I THINK MAYBE I CAN POST SELFIES IF I DRAW OVER IT LIKE THIS ^_^ HI I WENT OUTSIDE ~

ah yes, my f/o’s lap. my throne.

️‍🌈 HAPPY PRIDE ~!

IF VOLO IS YOUR "BABYGIRL" WHY AM I RAISING A DAUGHTER WITH HIM

VOLO DESERVED THIS SO MUCH & I HOPE THIS MEANS THAT THEY WILL GIVE HIM 100 ALTS LIKE CYNTHIA & TOO MUCH SCREEN TIME & EVERYONE WILL GET SICK OF HIM EXCEPT ME

Bonus pic today~ Volotober days 8-10!

Yeah so I did think of him as an overzealous Pearl thats way too into their diamond authority but nothing I was drawing worked. So I just drew my boy with a bunch of gemstone brushes and let myself have fun lol

It's the thought that thinks

I will never understand non-sharing. Their F/Os are just fictitious characters, they are not their property. :/

It's usually for comfort. Some people are just very closely attached to the characters and thus feel uncomfortable sharing them. Sometimes it's because they're ficto in some way and thus view the characters as being genuine partners cause the love for them is the same as any nonfictional relationship (which is completely valid, by the way), and sometimes it's just because they don't want to for their own reasons

Yes, some people can be rude about being not open to sharing, but not all non-sharers are aggressive about it. Most are fans just like you who want to feel safe in their community just like you do. Most don't even view the characters as their "property", they just don't feel comfortable interacting with those who have the same F/O as them. It's a boundary and should be respected just as much as people that are okay with sharing

I'm mainly answering this just to give some information, but this is a safe space for sharers and non-sharers. You gotta realize that to some people these aren't just "fictitious characters", and selfshipping is a lot more personal.

I KEEP KNOCKING MY VOLO NUI OFF MY BED IN MY SLEEP... WHAT IF THAT WAS CANON.. INO KICKS IN HIS SLEEP & VOLO WINDS UP ON THE GROUND
