Fandom talk:Shipping

For the list of shippings, should we include alternate names that fans have coined in the descriptions of pairings?

I added links to some fics. I linked to fics that were noted as being the genesis of the pairing's name, but I would like to also include one link per 'ship name so that there can be a representative piece of work for each pairing. I'll get back to this once I can find a nice way to standardize the notation. --Dracobolt 17:59, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Hurray for Mr. Appreciator! Thanks to him, I've set up the format you now see in this article. Dracobolt 10:37, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Thinking out loud
I'm not generally a romance fan, but a shipping idea popped into my head recently: Babi and Sheba. Babi did kidnapped Sheba, so it would make sense that at least one person would write a Babi/Sheba fanfic. (Disturbing? You bet.) Does anyone know if there is such a fanfic out there, 'cause if so it should probably be added to the list. Also, what should the pairing be called? I vote for Tolbishipping.

 * Don't worry about the inherent disturbing-ness of that idea, someone wrote a fic pairing Isaac with his house's roof, and that relationship almost climaxed. ^_^ Erik Jensen (Appreciate me here!) 22:46, November 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I think Babi/Sheba is disturbing by normal standards, whatever "normal" is anymore, but point taken. (I don't think I even want to know how you can have a relationship with your roof.) The world&#39;s hungriest paperweight 23:32, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, some of the shippings are jokes, like Garet+Dora, eww. Why are there just pairs that are adepts? Does this mean that non-adepts can't be paired with adepts? Also if Felix and Sheba where an item and they had a kid would the kid have Venus or Jupiter powers? Or would they become a class with those two elemantes?76.115.102.113 21:58, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * People in the fan fiction community for Golden Sun are simply the most interested in the characters that have elemental powers as Adepts, which is why people haven't bothered to come up with terms for pairings with non-adepts. It's already been shown in the game's world that when two Adepts of different elements have kids, the kids are either one element or the other, but never a sort of "dual-element" Adept; after all, Felix and Jenna's parents are a Venus Adept and a Mars Adept, but Felix is just a Venus Adept while Jenna is just a Mars Adept.

Their are some very irregular shippings out their not to mention jaypawx his stick Roofshipping put a line where i ship in fanfics alot of the goldensun community stick to Adept shipping in my oppinion because their are more ways for them to be shipped while non-adepts really are not that diverse in their love interests although i could be wrong Brandonallison 16:32, February 21, 2010 (UTC)

Isaac's love for the roof of his house. If you actually read that story, and then you hop on one leg and squint with the opposite eye, it kind of starts to make sense in context. (One-leg hopping and eye-squinting helps because it jumbles your brain a bit). In fact, I'd say it's less disturbing than Sheba/Babi. But if we're going for sheer diturbing-ness, then what about Donpa/Jenna (admittedly crack) or some such nonsense? You know that if you look, you can probably find it somewhere.

So, I heard that someone tried to claim the ship of which I named. XD --King Cena 05:15, March 23, 2010 (UTC)

Um, this is a question to an earlier reply. The one about Felix and Shepa, The adepts with different elements had a relasion. As Saturos said, fire and earth share a bond orsomething like that, so those elements kindof paired with each other (Felix and Jenna's parents) so those elements, it seems to me, are more likely to have kids withthe same elements. In words I can understand, Felix, Venus, and Sheba, Jupiter, their elements don't share a bond. So if they had a kid, it's less likely that he would be one element or another. While Jenna and Felix's parent's elements, shared a bond. So, how would opposing elements adepts kid be? <^>__<^>
 * While we don't know that for sure, it's likely it'd either be a Venus Adept or a Jupiter Adept. Erik Jensen (Appreciate me here!) 04:34, June 9, 2010 (UTC)
