Re: When you're the only shipper...

[philstar22]

I shipped Galadriel/Sauron in a semi-cracky way before Rings of Power. I think there were like two of us who shipped. Now everyone ships, but honestly I don't ship it in the Rings of Power version at all.

Ouch. Can't remember when I last felt that feeling of "I liked it, then this thing happened, now everyone likes it and I don't like it anymore" but I know how it is and it sucks.

It actually has happened to me more than once where something becomes canon (though it didn't in this case) and suddenly the dynamic doesn't work for me. Tonks and Remus back when I was into Harry Potter. House and Cuddy. Bones and Booth.

When I ship, I often ship with a specific dynamic. And seeing a different dynamic can completely ruin a ship for me.

"When I ship, I often ship with a specific dynamic. And seeing a different dynamic can completely ruin a ship for me."

Yeah, this. Sometimes the canon is just not as good as whatever we were imagining before.

The Rings of Power version is weird because they're both really hot in that version (*especially* Galadriel) (like, really really really really really REALLY hot) but I still kind of hate their dynamic and wish there was something else going on.

Re: When you're the only shipper...

Yup. When I shipped, it was in a hate sex kind of way where he becomes obsessed with her while he's Annatar precisely because she isn't into him and he simply doesn't understand how anyone could not be into him. In canon, she doesn't figure out who he is, but she's extremely suspicious of him. So that's the dynamic I want, not one where she's completely fooled.

Not to mention, a lot of the Rings of Power shippy fics come with mentions of Melkor/Sauron and insisting that Melkor abused Sauron. Trying to make Sauron more sympathetic. And I really, really, really hate that idea.
