OCxOC personally ! I love getting to talk to my ship partners and brainstorm headcanons with them ! Fluff and angst or spice 😳😳😳 I just have an easier time with it ! And then there is someone who cares about the ship as much as I do ♡

ALWAYS TALL/SHORT !!! CHILDHOOD FRIENDS TO LOVERS TOO!!
a trope that has me in a chokehold is reincarnation/fated to be I JUST. HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THAT

Big fan of opposites attract, introvert x extrovert etc. Mariah and Andre are an example of this, Mariah being more reserved and serious and Andre being kinda flashy and flirty. Another i like is cold and callous person with soft nice person 🥺

i think im a HUGE sucker for height difference, esp if the girl is taller if its a m/f ship. im a big fan of dynamics where two people of opposite aesthetics but complementary personalities come together, such as glimwood where kaia a fun but down to earth jock is with naomi whos a timid nerd that acts cold for her own protection

OH BOY HERE WE GOOOO….some of my biggest ones are height differences, opposite personalities, enemies to lovers, slow burn falling in love because they’re both idiots at romance…I love so many ship types, it’s hard to narrow it down fully. 😭

This may sound really basic but I really love friends to lovers, specially if one of the characters has trouble making friends to the sole part of the "friends" in the dynamic is already meaningful to them lol... any iteration of that trope is so cute for me... childhood friends to lovers / best friends to lovers. People who know the other better than anyone and they continuously support each other, and then realizing their feelings and coming to the natural conclusion that they always wanted to be with the other person. I like ships where, despite being a couple, they still act like the best friends they are AHDKDHDKDHD

I guess rivals to lovers? Friends to lovers is good too. I also just like ships where a couple hit it off and it gets built up over time, but the sparks are there right from the onset.

I usually go by Oc x Canon with a lot of my characters, Tyler included. My favorite ship dynamic is the Smug Jokey character x Super serious person who wants to gut punch them on eye contact XD I just think its a nice change of pace. Though I am considering Oc x Oc for Tyler, I'm currently making a rival for him but idk if they'll be just bros or something more!

Angry x also angry but they’re soft for each other and Giant Wife x loving small husband

But I’ve also have a soft spot for serious x goofball tropes

I think my top 3 ship dynamics are : Childhood friends, The Flirty one X The one that hates the flirty one's guts, The ray of Sunshine X Hates Everything

The only ship I have right now that I’ve done things with and people know is Norra and Dulse. Which I would consider a BubblyxSerious dynamic.

Tho, I have to give a shout out to the Overly Humble/Doesn’t see themselves too highly x The Encourager/ Have Witnessed and knows their SO is nothing but Wonderful <3

Generic as it is I love Sad OCxHappy OC! Or just the whole Winter moodXSummer Mood vibe!

I really like childhood friends to lovers. i just think it's really neat and cute,,,, (There is a specific oc ship that has been infesting my brain for over a year and all of my preferences are now tailored to that bc i love it so much sdfgfds)

FRIENDships/Platonic

There's not enough of that these days (imho anyways). I'm giddy for fellow OCs or OCs and canon characters just... interacting normally, y'know. Treatin' each other like friends, or having simple conversations. Hell, even hangin' out for the fun of it. Being each other's support systems. Stuff like that.

May have said something like this before, but one of my favorite ship dynamics is when those being shipped are pretty in-synch/on the same page; it's just that that page is a little bit off from what most everyone else around them is reading

I also can't help but be fond of the classic "one's a happy goof, one's a hardass who only softens for said goof"
