rarepairexchangeShare what you love about the rare ships you've nominated and will either request and/or offer! Some of the rare ships in the tagset belong to rare canons. If you love trying new canons or are currently on the hunt to become obsessive about something else, this is a great post for you!
You can use the form below to get started. (You don't have to if you don't want to, but we advise trying to make your comment easy to read.)
A few things to consider:
Please try to keep your thirst to one comment.
Please try to limit the number of gifs and videos you post, if you choose to provide some supportive material. (We recommend any more than one gif/video that you can link for anyone with a slower Internet connection.)
Please link and mark anything that is NSFW, especially if you're posting gifs/videos. (We'd also appreciate trigger warnings for the big triggers. If you think it needs a trigger warning, please add it.)
Please remember that this post may contain triggering topics due to canon content that may or may not be warned for, so please view the content at your own discretion.
You can also use this post to ask for canon recs. We recommend advising what you're looking for (a particular medium or a canon that's so many hours long?)—and it wouldn't hurt to mention what kind of ship dynamics/tropes you're into since that's why we're here!
We won't be moderating this page as closely, but we will screen/freeze threads as needed. If you need to get in contact with us, please reply to this comment.

The Caligula Effect: Overdose
Date: 2024-04-29 08:28 am (UTC)Ships: Minezawa Izuru/Ike-P
Media: Video Game on PC, PS4, Switch
A summary of the canon: A vocaloid learns about human emotion via the songs people make her sing. She realises people are hurting and wants to help them, but her understanding is limited. She creates a virtual world where people can live and be happy, free of their trauma. However, to live in this world, the people fall into a coma in the real world. On top of this, managing everyone's problems and taking them on as her own is having a major effect on her own well-being, causing her former partner to become concerned for her and wanting to end the project for her sake. Some people in the virtual world start to become conscious of the fact it isn't reality and have to decide if they want to go home or not.
You play as a member of the "Go-Home Club" - a group dedicated to going home - and are up against the Ostinato Musicians - vocaloid producers who don't want to go home. That isn't to say you have to side with the Go-Home Club.
Overdose introduced a second story line for you to befriend and side with the Ostinato Musicians, allowing you to see both sides of the story and the things that make them want to stay in the virtual world. It's highly recommended you play this route to get the full story.
What do you love about this ship/these ships?:
Ike-P is living that Wile E Coyote life painting tunnels on walls and watching Izuru walk straight through them. Then Izuru turns around like what a nice guy telling me about this shortcut but Ike-P is shaking with rage. What's he even mad about? Izuru is prettier than him and he's all he can think about and clearly the solution is to kill him. Absolutely losing it at this stoic pretty boy that's infested his brain. Meanwhile, Izuru is like, yep, that's Koike, he's cool. I'll support his endeavors. Clapping and praising him all the time.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: Post-canon stuff. I really want content with Izuru's scars particularly.
