ship_manifesto, my roommates and I had the following train of thought--
Given: Some of the essays onship_manifesto are for pairings that not only make no sense, but cannot physically exist -- such as crossover pairing manifestos.
Premise: How do people not only come to 'ship such absurd pairings, but to write essays explaining them?
Conclusion: They must roll the Fangirl Dice, as previously conceived byphinnia and I. (*rollroll... Harry Potter / Orlando Bloom OTP~!*)
Now I want to start a community where we do exactly that. We say, "This week is Getbackers week! Who wants to volunteer?" and then members volunteer to write 'ship essays. Then we roll the dice and assign the dice-decided pairings to random community members. "Volunteer #1 gets Pairing #1, which is Shido/Akabane. GO!" Then Volunteer #1 has to write a manifesto about why Shido/Akabane could be a legitimate 'ship.
Then, of course, I shoot myself in the head. I'm sure my first pairing would be something like Hiead/Zero. But it would be interesting. Opinions, thoughts?
