I have to admit, I like the pairing. I don't go out of my way to ship it, and I get a little squicked at any of the Yume Nikki ships trying to be sexy instead of fluffy (eww saliva) but yeah, it's kind of cute.

It doesn't even have to be romantic in nature. I just want to see that Madotsuki can act human, or could learn to. If she could even befriend Masada or Poniko or Monoko or Monoe or any of them... well, then the ending might have played out differently. Or maybe it wouldn't have, but she could have found some happiness along the way. So it's not really that I want to see them making out or whatever as much as I think that relating to another person, even if it's just a dream, could have really helped Mado-chan, whether it's platonic or romantic or whatever. And Masada's adorable. So are a bunch of the other characters, and I don't really prefer any one pairing for it.

I think maybe if we actually had fic, Yume Nikki shipping wouldn't look so awful- people could try to explain the characters, especially Madotsuki, and look into what they are and what makes them tick. And maybe the shipping wouldn't even be the total focus of it-- perhaps if Mado learned how to interact with other people instead of just stabbing them all the freakin' time, she'd have some positive experiences and possibly become less of a hikkikomori. Why can't I write? WHY DON'T WE HAVE NICE THINGS? Mostly it's just fanart, and while that's often very pretty and while cute fanart as opposed to sleazy fanart does exist, it doesn't always do a great job of showing that we're not just pairing everyone up for the hell of it. Not that there's anything wrong with fanart, of course, but even the best fanart isn't the best way to convince non-supporters that a ship isn't gross/awful/stupid.

So I'm sorry if I'm making you feel angry by saying I support this, just, I wanted to tell you that not all of us are all "it's hot and there HAS to be romance in it and lawl she stabs him hahahahaha." Just saying.

*OP*

I see where you're coming from with this, really. I'm the type of person who sees Madotsuki being friends with her dream-residents because d'awwww. I just can't see it as more than friendship tbh. Or maybe I'm just bitter when it comes to romance but whatever.

I'm glad to see a different opinion, though. c: I didn't consciously try to insult shippers, even if that's how it sounded. ._. Forgiveness?

(And yes Masada is totally adorable. <3)

I didn't think you were trying to insult me. There's nothing to forgive! And I can understand you not liking romance.

But we've got more in common with our love of Yume Nikki than we do differently! Both of us want Madotsuki to get to know her dream residents and develop relationships with them, and that's already a biiiig step from the canon. The fact that I'm open to it being romance and you're not? Is really a smaller deal. I guess just don't get so mad next time you see Masada/Madotsuki, because at least they want her to get to know him and to like him instead of just stabbing him all the time.

I think I'm going to write fic now, actually. Is that okay?

I have no control over what people write! DX> Write your heart out, whomever you are. :D

I've never been much of a "Romance" person...friendships can actually be more heartwarming in some cases, I think.

You seem cool, whoever you are. :3 D'you have a deviantART account or something like that? (And if I actually already know you, lol hay.)
