Temporary Sign-Up Discussion Post!

[hso_mods]

Hey shippers!
So, we were completely blown away by the sheer volume of sign-ups (374 at the time of this writing); as a sort of stop-gap measure while we try to get the team lists up, feel free to comment here and tell others what team(s) you signed up for!

I continue with the page theme of indecision. I went with Karkat ♥ Nepeta, Nepeta ♥ Terezi, and Equius ♥ Karkat, but I was this close to picking Aradia ♠ Vriska, Equius ♥ Gamzee, Slick ♠ Snowman, AR/PMWV, or Aradia ♥ Equius.

Fuck yes indecision! You have a lot of good ships on there to choose from. ^_^

There are so many great ships, why are there so many great ships? CHOOSING WAS ROUGH. (Now I'm sighing all over your icon. I do love that ship...)

I really like your picks too, especially Jade ♠ Nepeta. That is a world of hilarity right there. Nepeta would probably get such a kick out of doing the same kind of thing to Jade as Jaspersprite does.

They would have the doofiest blackrom! It would be adorable. I will probably try to write them sometime this summer whether it's for HSO or not, because TOO CUTE. And also a really good way to deal with Nepeta's dislike for blackrom as we see it in canon. :33

I only knew for sure that I wanted my first choice to be Karkat ♥ Nepeta, but it took me forever for my next two. I eventually went with Nepeta ♦ Equius and Sollux ♥ Eridan, though I was sooo tempted to do Kanaya ♥ Dirk, really.

It was my third choice that kept switching out wildly, with much crossing names off lists and putting them back on. I like your second two picks also! Sollux ♥ Eridan is intriguing me lately because it seems so unlikely, but two incredible nerds posturing together is fun.

I've always had a soft spot for Sollux ♥ Eridan, they're both just so volatile and dorkyemotional I think it would be lovely. But also, Equius ♥ Karkat, how sweet is that?

The confirmed lists went up and I'm not on Karkat/Nepeta, sigh. I'll cheer you guys on! with how fast the teams filled up I might actually land in Equius ♥ Karkat after all. And yes that pairing could be super sweet, and also terrible because they are who they are, but I love how they grew so much more tolerant of each other. Jocular embraces ftw.
