Feeling sappy today for no in particular reasons and I wanted to make one of these for the hell of it so feel free to use if you’d like! ^^
(When asking please be specific on the ship!)
~OC / Self-Insert x Canon Ask Game~
🤝: How did they meet in the first place? What was there first impression of each other?
🫶: Who ended up falling first? Which of them actually realized that they’d fallen in love first?
🦀: How did they handle realizing they were in love? Embarrassed? Nervous? Mad?
🫣: Who stumbled the most with their feelings around the other? How much did the other person notice?
🦅: How good are their friends at being wingmen? Do they even help at all or just sit back watching the pining with a bag of popcorn?
💕: Who confessed first and how? Did it go as planned or did shenanigans ensue?
🦋: How long did it take them to get out of the awkward early relationship stage? Have they gotten more confident around each other?
❤️🔥: Who tends to take the lead with showing affection?
💔: Do they have any previous relationship experience from past partners? How does it reflect on how they handle their current one?
😑: How easily do they get jealous and how do they handle it?
🐱: Do they have pet names for each other, if so what are they? How does their partner feel about their pet name?
🌙: Who has to force the other into having healthy sleeping habits? How well does that go for em?
🗣️: Who’s the one that will ramble on about their highly specific interest while the other just sits back and nods along?
🐕: Do they have any pets together? If one of them had a pet from before their relationship how well does the pet get along with their partner? Do they have the pets approval or does said pet sit in between them and their partner any time they try to make a move?
✏️: How canon compliant are you with them? Do you stick pretty close or just have fun cause it’s your ship so no one can tell you what to do other wise?
💀: If the canon character is canonically dead, how did your OC handle their death? (Or did you completely omit their death cause fuck canon?)
💧: How well do they comfort each other when they’re upset?
🧸: Would they want to have kids together? If so what are their kid(s) like? How are they as parents?
👁️: What exactly do they want with their future with each other? Is that something they think of often or do they just stay in the moment?
🕊️: Give just a general domestic tidbit for em (things they like about each other, routines, habits, and just overall sweet stuff)

not sure why people act like self inserts are one of the worst things to happen in a fandom space when it comes down to the following: "i like this thing, and i created a character based off myself to be part of it because i love it so much!" a simple concept, right?
and people have a visceral reaction to this for some reason? it doesn't ruin the sanctity of canon; by that logic, all shipping and headcanons that aren't canon compliant would squick you out. is it a thing where the average person isn't an "expert" in character or story writing, and therefore everything they write about their s/i is bad by default? by that logic, any fanwork is inherently worth less, and we all know (if you aren't an elitist) that isn't true.
even if it's just "for no reason," you don't have to talk about how much you hate it and lay it on so thickly... just say it's not your thing, if you must for whatever reason, and move on. i don't know why it's so difficult to be neutral on something nowadays. just move on.
it's truly lost on me why indulging in something people love via self inserts is this horrendous crime that warrants a "cringe" reaction
