taotrooper: It's a polar bear dancing the hula; your argument is invalid (Eriol by me)

Again, I'm the bitch

Dear ET fangirls:

Here's just another reason why that ship is not going to work, if you're still unsure about the usual ones (you know, like "they never talk to each other", "it doesn't make sense!", "it's so damn OOC", "she doesn't need a couple to be happy, unlike YOU, pathetic fool", "did you forget about Kaho?", "Tomoyo happens to like *girls*", "he's mentally over forty years older than her", "Spinel wouldn't like to be on tape every week", et cetera.)

If, for any reason, Eriol craves to date Tomoyo, there's an enormous obstacle by the name of Sonomi. Remember Sonomi Daidouji, Tomoyo's mom?

Do you really think she would let her precious daughter to smooch with a guy who:
a) is perfect in everything he does,
b) smiles a lot,
c) wears glasses,
d) looks exactly like FUJITAKA KINOMOTO?

Of course she wouldn't. She would kill him first. With an axe. A huge axe.

So consider that when you write your badfic.

Sincerely NOT yours,

Kirisame




... Um, now that think about it, that's not gonna work either. As a matter of fact, they are capable of killing Sonomi off, or doing a Romeo and Juliet cliché kind of story ("were gonna elope my luv!11".)

Yes!

Mmm... why suddenly Sonomi and Yuuko seem to have something in common?

Because they hate a guy with glasses who wins over them every time, and *grins*?

Yes, that's the reason.

Get away, plotbunnies! I have no time for you right now!

Tengo unas ganas terribles de escribir un drabble con Sonomi recogiendo a Tomoyo en la escuela, viendo a Eriol pasar y reaccionando de modo tal que tome a su hija en brazos y la aleje de él lo más posible. "Te prohibo terminantemente dirigirle la palabra a ese niño!!! ARGH!"

Fufufufu.

LOL !!!!


So true. Sonomi would kill Eriol before he could even date Tomoyo.

And Sonomi is too strong, Fanfic writer wouldn't be able to kill her !

I don't know about that, fangirls have killed stronger characters!

I lurv your brain, y'know?

I actually hadn't thought about that arguement, but you are 100% right.

I'm surprised nobody else has come up with this one before. It's so obvious, and yet, such a revelation when you think about it! o_o

Heh, these could also be reasons why my OTP wouldn't work either. But at least I address Sonomi in my fic. I'd like to think Tomoyo would stand up for herself if she found someone who really made her happy, and Sonomi would just have to deal with it, or else lose her just like she lost Nadeshiko.

Um, yes, but... I really think she would hate more "that man's clone/other half/evil twin" than "that man's son", because Touya doesn't resembles Fujitaka a lot, I believe. Not the kind of hate that deserves an axe... maybe a kitchen knife or a Swiss Army.

Crap, did this rant offend you? o_o Crap. This wasn't supposed to offend anti-ET people, and it wasn't supposed to offend intelligent people. I'm so so sorry!

God, I knew it, no matter what I say to fandom, and no matter how I'll say it, I'll be the bitch. *falls into depression*

No, I understand where you're coming from. I just wanted to point out that, yes, non-canon pairings are tricky, because you have to address these kinds of issues, instead of just throwing two people together and pretending it was always that way. Some of us do go to the trouble to make these pairings believable, but most people don't bother beyond "OMG their so cuuuute lol!!!1!" and they give the rest of us a bad name.

La verdad es que es gracioso no haberlo pensado nunca, pero ciertamente todo encaja. Aunque (y no te deprimas >_<) me he dado cuenta leyéndolo de que mi OTP absoluta videojueguil es igual de (o incluso más) absurda que el ExT. En todo el juego no se dirigen la palabra ni una sola vez, es totalmente fan-made porque ambos personajes encajan (a mi parecer) en términos de personalidad, pero nada más. No hay interacción real entre ellos en absoluto. Y encima la chica se casa con otro personaje en la segunda parte del juego y tienen un hijo ^^;; Lo peor es que tengo la fanlisting de la relación XD Adoro verlos juntos en fanfics/arts o imaginarme cosas imposibles mientras juego...

... y aún así me entran ganas de tirarme por una ventana a veces por gustarme una 'ship tan absurda -_- Pero tranquila, te lo digo antes de que se te ocurra pensarlo, no me has ofendido en absoluto, es sólo que de pronto he visto "la otra cara de la moneda" y me ha dado por pensar y darle vueltas a la cabeza (mi hobby favorito). Supongo que no es malo... ¿no? ó_ò

Pero ella no tendría una madre bisexual con instintos asesinos, he ahí la diferencia. (supongo o_oU)

Y yo emparejo al susodicho del rant con una chica con la que habla 3 veces, así que hipócrita sí soy un poco. Pero al menos para mí tiene más sentido, y tampoco es que los shipee tanto.

No es la pareja que me choque: son las fangirls detrás de ella. Sea como sea, sigo siendo la bitch.
