What’s this community’s thoughts on shipping? I remember Reddit being quite hostile towards it, and I’m hoping it’s changed over here.

Edit: good to see you’re all reasonable people.

    I don’t mind what people ship but if harassment comes into play that block button is coming into play.

    Also Lumine harem is otp.

        How dare you. Blocked, reported----nah, just kidding. Can you imagine though? (Sadly, I can. Twitter was not fun.)

        Out of curiosity, if you’re not joking what is your favorite Childe ship? I’ve never quite gotten into Childe as a character, so as a result I feel a lot of the fandom is so far away from me.

          Bennett is #1, with Kaeya close after. (Coincidentally, those are also my #2 and #3 characters at the moment.) Diluc’s also high up there.

            🤝 I don’t know what, exactly, created the Bennett ship but the art on it tends to be pretty good so I can respect that ship. It has an interesting vibe to it…

            Something like a mix between “my cool upperclassman as a crush on me?! light novel” comedic vibes and “the only person who wants to adventure with me is the guy who survived the abyss!!!” more serious vibes.

              I tend more fanfic with my shipping, so I’ll take your word on the art.

              And I’m pretty sure that Childe/Bennett was originally created as a joke, then we got a whole bunch of people saying “hang on, that works?”
