Temporary Sign-Up Discussion Post!

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!

Good ships, and I know what you mean about Vriska. *can't get over the fact that her first choice doesn't have Vriska in it*

Feferi <3< Eridan. Vriska <3< Terezi is my OTP but it was too intimidating to put in first place. ._.

Awww why was it too intimidating? :c

Basically because I get overwhelmed with ~feeeeeelings~ whenever I start about them, and then I wax lyrical about how they're the Naruto-and-Sasuke, Batman-and-Two-Face, Holmes-and-Moriarty of Homestuck. Except that it's better, because for Naruto-and-Sasuke and Batman-Two-Face it's sad that they're not on the same side and their friendship was lost, there's always a twinge of bitterness. Whereas the concept of kismessitude means that the break between Terezi and Vriska doesn't mean they wasted something, it means their becoming epic rivals/nemeses/girlfriends-on-opposite-sides fulfilled their potential.

And I'm afraid I'd do nothing but rehash canon events and gesture wildly by writing 'SEE? SEE? HOW PERFECT ARE THEY SERIOUSLY' and drawing the purple prose equivalent of sparkly spades all around them.

Wow, this post is a great example of why I didn't put them in first place. ^^

(Fef<3<Eri is yiiisssssssss. I ship Fef<3<Eri<3<Sol<3Fef too, but I thought that was a bit too much of a rare ship to stand a chance to sail. Fef<3<Eri isn't confirmed yet, and the OT3 version isn't even on the list, so I guess that was a good decision.)
