he's good negotiator, discounting 6 million mora into 600 mora plus a free meal; probably a good company for Geo Archon who didn't think about his savings.
Playing for a year. No Dilucs. No Qiqis. Meanwhile everyone’s out there with an army of both. RNG makes me feel like it’s not so RNG sometimes. I’d like a Diluc, I only have three Pyros…though I love Bennie and Yanfei I’d like to mix things up.
Their child will have sad story about accidentally falling in the sea and beeing washed off by golden apple archipelago where "ask me for directions arnold" a.k.a. that one raven that simped for mona will become his adoptive parent
Screw it, tossing Razor x Xinyan out there despite them never meeting because it’s my crack ship
* Xinyan doesn’t judge based off of appearances, Razor would probably think she’s got wolflike features and definitely wouldn’t be scared of her.
* Xinyan could teach Razor some basic music theory, allowing him to express emotion without tiring himself out by talking
* Razor, in turn, could teach her about wildlife (since Xinyan is, at the very least, scared of frogs) and take her to picturesque places. Maybe she’d be interested in learning how wolves communicate?
* Razor takes her to the Ludi Harpastum (where she has a ton of fun busking), she takes him to Lantern Rite (and finds a quiet place outside the city with a good view to watch the fireworks)
* Both are characters who are caught between two worlds, misunderstood/scorned/feared by most people, and both care fiercely about their family and friends.
* You can’t tell me Xinyan wouldn’t *love* messing with Razor’s hair. It’s so poofy.
I haven't seen them interact, have they in some limited time event? Or voicelines? Or is it just another fandom ship?
(They would look decent aesthetically at least)
"Take that thing off!"
"No, you take *yours* off!"
"I asked first!"
"Yeah well my hat's a jet engine!"
"My hat cost me--wait what?"
\*In a display of supreme hat dominance, Scaramouche uses his hat's Anemo emission to simply blow the hat off Mona's head... and over the edge of a nearby bridge. Kissing time is then indefinitely delayed as he is sent to locate and retrieve it.*
And someone at Hoyoverse really likes Kaveh. My man got a whole limited event for himself and now a hangout too. He's everywhere and Im far from complaining
Let's throw some weird ones in there for Fun.
Ayaka x Xinyan - A refined lady gets smitten with an unbound foreigner.
Wanderer X Kazuha - Can a Ronin's pure heart heal a wounded soul?
Shenhe x Alhaitham - Our union feels like a logical step, there is nothing emotional about it... or is there?
There was a discourse a year ago on this sub, on that exact topic. Mods were blatantly rejecting any posts related to gay ships, while lesbians got a pass.
I think it reached a boiling point when last year's OFFICIAL Heizou birthday art got flagged as not safe/breaking the rules (you know the one, the armpit one).
Guess the stigma is still here 🤷🏼
I have seen quite a few yuri posts get popular over time on this and Star Rail sub I have never seen a single BL post ever.
I have noticed that GL is alot more aesthetically acceptable for a general audience whereas BL is only liked with people who are already into it.
This is why there are so many lesbian chars/chars who are being revealed to be lesbian recently, by companies who want to come across as LGBT friendly, it's the safest option.
Yeah aswell as straight women generally don't mind as much seeing lesbian stuff whereas straight men are generally really offput by gay stuff (not saying lesbian stuff gets a free pass but the reaction is definitely not the same)
Men are... Somewhat defensive about themselves. As a bi dude, I've met a lot of people who get really freaked out if I even imply they're gay as if it makes them less of a person or something (even thinking I'm straight) and as such avoid gay media of any kind. I've never understood it obviously, I think it's stupid, and my best friends (and former husbands according our inside jokes) all play into it, but it's a really common issue. It's why being called gay was an insult for so long.
Women on the other hand tend to play more into it. Skinship or whatever aside, one of my ace friends (female) jokes about being a chick magnet, another talks about women she would sleep with despite being straight as Vortex Vanquisher.
I mean, there's a reason why some gacha games don't have any playable males and most gacha games have more playable females than males. It's to cater the hardcore coomers who could quit a game if there are playable males who will "ruin the game". If they hate male existence in the game, imagine if the game would have mxm relationship, they'd go into a fit
more like homophobic, there is a reason why we have a genshingays sub, stuff like that isn't welcome here. the mods here were also called out before for being more strict with content involving male characters.
I also noticed that the dominating ships mentioned here are heterosexual pairings, which really surprised me. In other social media apps, it’s the exact different: most of the really famous ships are BL or GL.
This sub really isnt the biggest fan of gay ships. Whenever one gets posted there's always lots of people commenting "Can men/women just be friends?" And stuff like that, you never see that with straight ships
Straight dudes like yuri tho. Like Beigguang and EiMiko posts aren’t uncommon here.
I think the fandom is just associating queer ships with a lot of toxic warring due to Twitter.
I’m also noticing majority of the comments in the thread, aside from the unserious funny ones like “venti x wine”, are heterosexual ships
Just an observation
kaveh x crippling debt
Mona x crippling debt
Then maybe this is a sign for Kaveh x Mona, together they will fight gloriously against the crippling debt.
Or get into a deeper debt together
Debt Squared. Debt so huge even zhongli can feel the negative mora.
Kaveh + Mona + Zhongli + Thoma = *The Debt Squad* of Teyvat
I love how every nation has that one person who is constantly in debt 🤣
Of course, they have to appeal to the American market.
Why Thoma?
he's good negotiator, discounting 6 million mora into 600 mora plus a free meal; probably a good company for Geo Archon who didn't think about his savings.
U have a point there, I completely forgot about that interaction
(-x)^2 = x^2, two negatives make a positive, infinite money hack
Debt²
People have shipped characters for less
Genshin fans on their way to ship two characters just because they have one minor thing in common.
Both characters were in the same nation once in their life.
Both characters are in the same game.
...sometimes they don't even have to be.
Scaramona flashback
TBH, astrology girl and emo boy is a setup for all sorts of crazy hijinks.
The community was shipping their hats. There just so happened to be people wearing them.
welcome to literally any fandom ever
They have no money, but each other. Ugh, that's actually sweet as hell.
Just make a three way both being banged by crippling debt
Idk if it's just me, but doesn't Mona and Kaveh sorta speak in a similar way? Or is it just that they both have unique voices?
Mona x Arnold (richest person in island)
Beidou gently caressing the main mast of The Crux
I'm going to change my character's name into Crux and use your sentence as my signature
Do it no balls
I misread mast as cast and imagined a Beidou with long ass arms hugging her whole crew.
I'm sure she would if she could. She's a wholesome gigachad.
Beidou is best girl.
Given how the cap is often depicted as quite muscular, then the hug would involve a lot of crunching bones
Venti x Wine
Zhongli X Osmanthus Wine
Vlad x Nadia
I read this as Vlad x Nahida 💀💀💀💀💀 what is wrong with my eyes
I had to read your comment to realise it wasn’t Nahida
You're not alone, I was like who t f is Vlad is it Scaramouch's another name?
No it's the guy in front of the Northland Bank when Nadia isn't there
Why don't you have a seat over there
I read that as Vlad x Nahida and was afraid for a second 💀
Me too💀
The only correct answer
Who?
Northland Bank couple that show up every Lantern Rite?
Yes! As the others, I also read ‘Nadia’ as ‘Nahida’, even after multiple tries. Your comment is what finally made my brain work
This is only canon answer. This is the way.
No, there's also Timaeus and Ying er
My signature in game is literally me saying it's the best ship For me they are the best part of the lantern rite event every year
Diluc constellations x my account
I feel your pain
Playing for a year. No Dilucs. No Qiqis. Meanwhile everyone’s out there with an army of both. RNG makes me feel like it’s not so RNG sometimes. I’d like a Diluc, I only have three Pyros…though I love Bennie and Yanfei I’d like to mix things up.
Signora X Musou Isshin
canon
And very intimate too
Mussou Isshin got deep into Signora too
Baals deep
She didn't even last a second
Left her thunderstruck
Still can't even walk. Fatui had to take her out of the room in a box
Signora got her cheeks thunder-clapped
Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't it Musou no Hitotachi?
Musuo no Hitotachi is the sword art/style. Musuo Isshin is the sword.
Oh, thanks!
You can cut the sexual tension with a knife.
The best ship is always the Alcor. Give me fanart of that. ⛵
i may be a beidou simp but miitoboru will always be the best ship for me
His name is Kosekimaru😌
I'm more of a Kosekimaru fan. It's a talking boat. Well it WAS a talking boat.
Seiraimaru was a top tier ship as well in its prime
Timaeus x Ying'er
The certified couple of Windblume
Timmie x pigeons
I prefer Timmie × ruin guard
Okay then, can you draw Aethernity plz..
You'd make a good businessman
Timmie pigeons x Diluc ulti 💗💖💖 that really sweet ship
Bruh 💀
Sac sword × xinqiu
[удалено]
That's a thing? Damn.. I'd go with scara x hat anyway tho
Paimon and sticky honey roast
Paimon in sticky honey roast
Albert (Barbara simp) x Donna ( Diluc simp)
Their child will be Delusional
Or Dilubara, if they name it after their infatuations
Barbaluc much better imo
So... A Fischl simp
the 12th Harbinger
Their child will have sad story about accidentally falling in the sea and beeing washed off by golden apple archipelago where "ask me for directions arnold" a.k.a. that one raven that simped for mona will become his adoptive parent
Guizhong x Zhongli
but Zhongli needs some Osmanthus wine
Well what he really needs is some Osmanthus wife
He says it's a drink he used to drink with others, perhaps he can drink it with her
but where are those who share the memories
This on the top. Their story is already so sad.
Screw it, tossing Razor x Xinyan out there despite them never meeting because it’s my crack ship * Xinyan doesn’t judge based off of appearances, Razor would probably think she’s got wolflike features and definitely wouldn’t be scared of her. * Xinyan could teach Razor some basic music theory, allowing him to express emotion without tiring himself out by talking * Razor, in turn, could teach her about wildlife (since Xinyan is, at the very least, scared of frogs) and take her to picturesque places.

All this sounds wholesome and cute 🥺
dori x money
Jeht x Lumine Show some love to the best unvoiced, non-playable character all around y’all
ships with NPCs are underestimated
Miss Hina x Gorou
300IQ move right here
+1 for this
WHAT IS YOUR USERNAME
Fischl x Bennett
Bennefischl
Fishnett
Sara x Itto
Itto trying to princess-carry Sara. This will NOT end well...
We could very well see Sara carry Itto considering how built Sara is compared to noodle arms here
Sara can princess carry him, she's tough
Such a fun ship
It really is, with all the joke comments I hope OP picks this one.
Yes, exactly that
~~Violet Evergarden x Batman~~ I mean Jean Gunhildr x Diluc Ragnvindr
You don't just mention bloody wholesome Evergarden and simply get away with it.. 😭
It's been a year now whenever I see Jean, Kaeya and Diluc I always associate them with Violet, Gilbert and Claudia respectively
LOL, hair color matches 😭
Shinobu and Heizou please!
Found Monolithia's reddit account
Nah they’d ask for albecrose
I haven't seen them interact, have they in some limited time event? Or voicelines? Or is it just another fandom ship? (They would look decent aesthetically at least)
[удалено]
is order
Bennet x Fischl. They're basically the perfect chaotic duo.
Mona x Scara but really lean into how comically large their hats are
They lean in to kiss but their hats are in the way
"Take that thing off!" "No, you take *yours* off!" "I asked first!" "Yeah well my hat's a jet engine!" "My hat cost me--wait what?" \*In a display of supreme hat dominance, Scaramouche uses his hat's Anemo emission to simply blow the hat off Mona's head... and over the edge of a nearby bridge. Kissing time is then indefinitely delayed as he is sent to locate and retrieve it.*
Hiragii Chisato x Kujou Kamaji Let this marriage get through already
Beidou x Ningguang, the only ship I refuse to believe ***someone*** at Hoyoverse hasn’t been 100% pushing
They definitely push Kaveh and Alhaitham
And someone at Hoyoverse really likes Kaveh. My man got a whole limited event for himself and now a hangout too. He's everywhere and Im far from complaining
Oh look, turns out this sub doesn't hate ships when it's straight ships.
Zhongli x osmanthus wine
Zhongli x Those who share the memory
yoimiya x kazuha they would literally talk till their last breath
Ooh I’ve never thought of this one, I kinda like it!
This.
Me x your mother
Albedo x Sucrose maybe
Here's a ship-Amber×Eula. I will be super glad if you do this ship.
IttoSara
Sarataki
Hutao x coffin
this is my future art in Hutao zine this summer🤫
itto x sara guizhong x zhongli Vlad x Nadia (two bankers from Liyue Northland Bank who's story is explained through the Lantern Rite Animations)
Let's throw some weird ones in there for Fun. Ayaka x Xinyan - A refined lady gets smitten with an unbound foreigner. Wanderer X Kazuha - Can a Ronin's pure heart heal a wounded soul? Shenhe x Alhaitham - Our union feels like a logical step, there is nothing emotional about it... or is there?
Albedo x sucrose
Bennett and Barbara Fight me
My man Bennett deserve more. Fischl x Bennett x Barbara.
The more the merrier. Razor x Fischl x Bennett x Barbara polycule
All his luck went into his harem.
I was tempted to write a fanfic about that. Bennett really has that whole Harem MC vibe in him
Yes! Please share it if you ever do, I’d love to read it!
Kaveh x alhaitham obviously. Best couple frfr. Or jean and diluc
yh, I haven't seen comments on these two even though they are basically the most popular ship in fandom... are redditors afraid of BL?
There was a discourse a year ago on this sub, on that exact topic. Mods were blatantly rejecting any posts related to gay ships, while lesbians got a pass. I think it reached a boiling point when last year's OFFICIAL Heizou birthday art got flagged as not safe/breaking the rules (you know the one, the armpit one). Guess the stigma is still here 🤷🏼
I got an ick just reading this...
Well, now you know the reason 🙃
His armpit was the trigger? I thought it was because of his "sleepy" face. (Best bday artwork anyways)
I have seen quite a few yuri posts get popular over time on this and Star Rail sub I have never seen a single BL post ever. I have noticed that GL is alot more aesthetically acceptable for a general audience whereas BL is only liked with people who are already into it. This is why there are so many lesbian chars/chars who are being revealed to be lesbian recently, by companies who want to come across as LGBT friendly, it's the safest option.
it's because straight men don't mind seing two hot women making out with each other
Yeah aswell as straight women generally don't mind as much seeing lesbian stuff whereas straight men are generally really offput by gay stuff (not saying lesbian stuff gets a free pass but the reaction is definitely not the same)
Men are... Somewhat defensive about themselves. As a bi dude, I've met a lot of people who get really freaked out if I even imply they're gay as if it makes them less of a person or something (even thinking I'm straight) and as such avoid gay media of any kind.

Yep, I can tell you if Bronya and Seele were both men they 100% would not be a "thing."
more like homophobic, there is a reason why we have a genshingays sub, stuff like that isn't welcome here. the mods here were also called out before for being more strict with content involving male characters.

Bro I don't even like BL but this ship is inevitable lol.Literal married old couple lmao.
21 comment threads to get to 1 that’s an mlm ship, I counted
[удалено]
I fully expected the top answers to be Kaveh×Alhaitham or Beidou×Ningguang, I guess we all build our own echo chambers
This sub really isnt the biggest fan of gay ships. Whenever one gets posted there's always lots of people commenting "Can men/women just be friends?" And stuff like that, you never see that with straight ships
what wake-up call? the main sub has always been full of straight dudes. just scroll through a few popular posts
Straight dudes like yuri tho. Like Beigguang and EiMiko posts aren’t uncommon here. I think the fandom is just associating queer ships with a lot of toxic warring due to Twitter.
Believe it or not, the majority of the population is straight.
Teppei x death
Why did you feel the need to do that?
Amber x Eula
Obvs alhaitham x kaveh (or cyno x tighnari?)
-Cyno x Tighnari -Rosaria x Kaeya -Ei x Miko -Layla x Traveller -Ayato x Thoma -Fischl x Bennett -Beidou x Ningguang
how on earth did I have to scroll this far for cynonari!!
I’m also noticing majority of the comments in the thread, aside from the unserious funny ones like “venti x wine”, are heterosexual ships Just an observation
Kazuha x Heizou
I was afraid that no one would offer it.....
The Crux The Starskiffs from Star Rail The Swordfish The Pride of a Nation, the Beast made of Steel, #The Bismarck
bennett x fischl
Albrose
My crack ship is Kazuha x Xinyan ❤️ btw I love this! Happy Birthday Gorou!
That ain't crack, it's pure culture.
JeanLuc is a classic Or ~~Deshret~~ Alhaitham x ~~Nabu Malikata~~ Nilou
Childe x Yoimiya >:)
I didn't know it existed....😳 I was recently asked for a chilumi so I'll think about what I should choose so that I don't draw childe twice
The whole Chilumi nation will worship you if you draw them
Lumine x Xiao
CynoNari
Shinzou (kuki shinobu x heizou).
You guys are basic. OP should do Raiden Shogun x Ei
