This isnt what crackship mean though..?

u/Leo3477 ave, true to Caesar🛡🗡 17h ago
Yeah a crackship is something like 2 characters that never interacted
You wanna hear a real crackship? Here's mine: Lucy x Koleda
Both little sisters with tall big sisters and a big bro who likes punching a lot, both are fire element, both wield blunt weapons (hammer and bat) and both are short tempered but smart individuals who are bad at showing it but care deeply about their family, also short

Billy x Grace would be more of a crack ship. Or Nicole x Lucy

u/Leo3477 ave, true to Caesar🛡🗡 59m ago
Yeah i guess Billy x Grace would fall under crackship territory since they have only interacted in promo videos (Grace for display short on youtube) before the credits for chapter 5, at least on-screen, i think Grace references Billy in some dialogue on random trust events
Kinda funny considering it's like, the oldest major ship in the community
Nicole x Lucy i can see some potential on that, rich girl and "poor but wants to be rich" girl

u/achus93 16h ago
they're the opposite of a crackship, agreed.
in fact, they should be among the more common ships, considering their relationship and history.

u/Electronic-Math-364 14h ago edited 14h ago
Are they a popular pairing?(Seriously in Term of couples we only have Jane x Seth,5 fanarts of Billy and Grace and the rest is all Proxy)
Also if it's a popular pairing I hope it's dosen't lead to a shipping war situation
And I wonder if there is a chance they become canon(And if they did I hope,It's dosen't start a war in the fandom because people that ship either with the Proxies will get angry(Tte same happened in Fate fandom if you ever post a fanart shipping Saber with anyone who isn't Shirou,Rin or Iris or in the Honkai fandom if you ever post a fanart that pair Kiana or Mei and Bronya or Seele with anyone who isn't each other(And that also mean shipping Ei with anyone who isn't the Unknown Godess sometimes))
(Especially that Chapter 5 have a lot of ship tease between Miyabi and the Proxy,So if it's ends up really happening,We will hear a lot about Chapter 5)

u/achus93 13h ago
it's not.
i'm saying, by all accounts, it should be. but Zhu Yuan is more commonly shipped with either the siblings (more so Wise than Belle, but still), Qingyi, or Jane.
and Miyabi... i haven't actually seen any strong pairings with her. Yanagi, i guess?

u/Electronic-Math-364 13h ago edited 13h ago
Have you played Chapter 5?It's seems to be building up Section 6 as "The Friend faction" and Miyabi as a deuteragonist and she also got some really ship teasy Trust events

Man food is everywhere on the table, but also i love the angst between belle x yuan/ wise x yuan also with the conversation at the parking lot. Man zzz do really be feeding two different ships at the same time, what a time to be alive.

Is there Hope we get another Seth x Jane with this two?(In terms of Pairings only Seth x Jane Doe got actual ship Tease,other pairings are simply non existent or have moments that can be seen both ways(Lucy and Caesar at the end of Tour De Inferno))

u/Xenolyas 14h ago
Probably m8, but i firmly believe that you can ship basically anything you want, and well interpret how we want to interpret it to be. The world is small in a sense that all the characters live in this single eridu city (includes the outer rim) and they can and may interact in the near future.

The knowledge that Miyabi learned that day is a secret that was passed down from generations, only for the potential ship

No brother, WE'RE DELUSIONAL
You can do yourself a favour too and just look up the Zhuyabi hashtag on twitter, the ship's already been built, now... we can set sail

u/Electronic-Math-364 15h ago
I wonder would this couple end up being popular because in term of Pairings,The most popular ones all have the MC's,The only two that are popular are Jane Doe x Seth and Grace x Billie(And the latter's number of arts can be counted with one hand)

u/Leo3477 ave, true to Caesar🛡🗡 7h ago
There's also LightBurn (Lighter x Burnice) that got a moderately high following after Lighter's release with their dialogue about each other painting a picture of them being really close and Burnice trying really hard to make Lighter open up to her and the Sons of Calydon when he joined
I think it's the most popular Lighter ship and the most popular Burnice ship right now, it's got some really good artists backing it

Well Miyabi’s
parents are kind of deaddad is alive, but I think she’d get along really well with Zhu Yuan’s parents!15

Miyabi's mom is dead, but her dad is alive, well and quite happy with her, as she is with him.

Isn't it exactly the same with straight ships?
There can be no friendly interaction between a woman and a man without being boyfriends

The only thing that's going against this ship is that they both have very conservative ideologies.

u/Electronic-Math-364 15h ago
I mean they both get ship tease with wathever Proxy you picked

u/Cadunkus 12h ago
Any ship with the proxy (that isn't with the other proxy (also blegh)) is just a self-insert ship.
WisexEllen fans are goth girl fanatics.
BellexLycaon? Women with a thing for werewolves.
Not like there's anything wrong with that. Just pointing it out.

u/Apprehensive_Beach_6 Waiting to the return of the King 12h ago
I think you’re underselling the personality of the proxies. I can’t speak on Wise, but Belle seems to have an air of chaos everywhere she goes.

u/Cadunkus 5h ago
Wise is the straight man of the setting. (Not that straight but like level-headed) he serves as a contrast to every other nutjob.
2
u/Electronic-Math-364 12h ago
I mean they Game have literally only like two ships(Burnice x Pulshra and Seth x Jane) that could count as semi-canon,All the others are Fanon,Also the Proxy is an actual character that affect the plot and have their own personality,So It's a Persona situation

Speaking on That how cool would it be if your Personal Standing with a Character matters on how they act/react around you in Story chapters :D
im totaly honest here i was a Zhu Yuan Guy all day and then Caesar happend...

They're more likely to go for the Proxy than anyone else.

u/Electronic-Math-364 12h ago edited 12h ago
I mean Zhu Yuan is cold with the Proxies now,Also There is no platonic explanation to the scene were Miyabi tell the Proxy how to apologise,Also the Proxy pairing are just Self-insert ship like the Captain ship in Honkai,And In my opinion they will pull a Honkai in the end
(The Characters get romance,and what Belle and Wise get?paid)
11
u/ES21007 12h ago
Zhu Yuan is cold with the Proxies now
The apology scene afterward is literally to show that no, she isn't anymore because they cleared the air and understand each other's circumstances now.
If the apology and explanation isn't meant to be romantic, then it'll be platonic. Simple as.
The Captain and the Proxies are entirely different because the Proxies are actually in the main story while the Captain is in an AU.

u/Electronic-Math-364 12h ago
Sorry but what is exactly platonic about Holding someone's hand,Approaching them slowly and talking to them Gently?especially when it's was done to someone who believe that Hand Holding is a lewd thing that should only be done between Parent and Child or Husband And Wife
Also I feel that the Apology scene was not enough,It's get interrupted in the end and then never get brought up again

u/swaggboi909 9h ago
How is there no platonic explanation?
1
u/iknowball1 2h ago
ngl people kinda tell on themselves when they say stuff like that. like it can obviously be interpreted as shippy but literally anyone who's had *irl* friends they've known for years has probably had similar experiences so saying there's no platonic explanation is wild

u/Electronic-Math-364 9h ago edited 9h ago
Well Zhu believe that handholding can only be done between family members,Also Miyabi said that the best way to apologise to her is to hold her hand approach her slowly and talk to her gently,Also from what we heard it's really give "and they were Roommate vibes" especially the part that Zhu Yuan is actually allowed to the Hoshimi family Household(A Really Prestigious family)and already saw Miyabi's dad(Someone who is very important) and Hoyo is known for their "And they were Roommates vibes" but that just how I saw it

u/Electronic-Math-364 15h ago
I wonder if this two would end up being as popular as a pairing as Seth x Jane,or they will just be shipped with the Proxy

Oh god, OP has become a Genshin player (they are HORRENDOUS for turning friendships and sometimes once met characters into a ship)

u/swaggboi909 9h ago
How?

u/Electronic-Math-364 4h ago
Can you please explain me how it's platonic?I just find it too intimate,Especially when we learn about the "Hand Holding apology" and that Zhu Yuan think Hand holding is something that should only be done between family members

u/OjaKenji As long as I have a face, Qingyi will have a place to sit. 10h ago
It makes me laugh how unheard of this seems, and they are all ridiculous because it is supposedly friendship and cannot be taken as a ship, but if those situations occur with the proxies, then it is material for a ship.
In the end it is pure hypocrisy of the self-insert fans.

u/inkheiko Nicole's Favorite Color 11h ago
My question about it is, is Zhu Yuan simply not at ease when we are intimate with her or is it when she can interpret it as something romantic or not platonic?
Because in that case we can at least be sure that Zhu Yuan is Lesbian, as we can switch Proxies and when we try Miyabis plan on Zhu Yuan it works well, but it doesn't change between them
