Re: Filthy ships vs. tame ships (inspired by secret 3)
(Anonymous) 2023-05-29 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)Tamest: Not *every* ship I shipped in childhood falls under here, and some ships with younger characters I'm okay with aged up smut of, like ships I was into when I was discovering sexuality, but a LOT of childhood ships would fall here. Scarecrow/Tin Man is pretty sexless to me. Most cartoon ships and some comics ships. Lumax Stranger Things. There are a lot of ships where I think 'oh yeah, that's love', but like... I don't want to imagine the sex part!
Tame-or-Filthy: In the intermediate filth zone, we've got Holmes/Watson (primarily books, but any version of them can go here)-- I will happily enjoy them having an active sex life, I will happily enjoy them being totally asexual. Various comics ships fall here, where I like them but don't necessarily need sex to be part of the dynamic. Aged up Marinette/Adrien would fall here as well, sex doesn't have to be a part of it but I'm not turned off by the idea that their adult selves would be sexual. This is where a lot of ships go that I'm less invested in but enjoy as side ships, too, and also where my Star Trek and Star Wars ships fall. Sex can be nice, but I don't miss it when it's not there. Ships that I read about but don't write tend to fall in the 'cool either way' zone.
Filthiest: Destiel-- hey, I am not ashamed to be basic. And with that one, the thing is, I honestly enjoy ace Cas! But I see him as enjoying sex with Dean for the emotional intimacy and the knowledge that it's important to Dean, and I enjoy fics where he's exploring what sex means for him as a not-inherently-sexual being. Steddie... like, I don't NEED a fic to be about sex, BUT, I also want fics that are absolutely steeped in it. WISH there was more filth for my rarepairs because most of those I absolutely want smut for and I tend to be one of maybe two people to write it.
Kinkiest: If they're not tame then they are probably kinky to me, and I also just really enjoy ace characters engaging in nonsexual kink. Like... Crowley/Aziraphale doesn't need to have sex but I feel like they would stumble into inventing a kink just to have the intimacy of sex without making the effort to be physically capable of sex?
