HMM... ALRIGHT.
6. rellik x karl
lol ive been over this a lot but basically i really cant bring myself to care much about a ship where karl is balanced power with someone, and i feel like karl would feel really similarly!! at the most, he'd find rellik and his "similar" states of being interesting, but thats about it. he cant really victimize rellik, and he cant even bring himself to hate rellik either, much like rellik cannot hate karl and i think this would make karl boohoo bored. also, its hard to imagine karl topping in this ship and i firmly believe that karl would NEVER bottom or be submissive, he would DESPISE it and i dont think rellik is the type to rape karl/forcefully put him into a submissive position. blud does not care that much. would rather watch karl seethe
5. steffie x karl
i pretty much only think this bec in the way of lolis steffie is pretty meh for me, but i do like the idea of karl violating steffie in front of benzene. individual ship though its just ehh, pretty normal karlisms here he would simply kill + dispose of her. maybe enjoy it a bit too much
4. del x karl
its cute... i pretty much like karl with any girl and imagining him interacting with girls in general (if i had to choose which LoT girl though, id prefer karl with annie) iirc del is like kinda an author stand in weeb girl im imagining her fawning over this bishie and hes like ^_^ im that pretty? (doesnt care, just thinking about gutting her like a fish)
3. olga x karl
HAHHAHAA i just think karl would have too much fun tearing at her!! im imagining olga wanting to similarly do to karl what she did to climber in that one entry.. wants to smash him up!! if these two fucked both of them would be fucking dead at the end and thats really funny to me
2. climber x karl
brothers.... every day i am lamenting that castle of nations never became a comic or animation so we could see the actual depths of this ship... but theoretically its incredibly interest, as these two are literally built to be narrative foils.
1. mizuno x karl
im mad no one wrote a fic about these two where karl actually "befriends" mizuno and writes a canon divergent fic about these two in the tournament... well maybe it exists.. idk... im biased because i love mizuno a lot but i think that karl finds the dichotomy of what looks like a soft easy victim actually is capable of biting back. mizunos biting, flailing, fighting against him... karl enjoys this psychologically and sensory wise
