Sorry if I brought any confusion by saying that fearhugs aren't hints. But like Kanji said, we have better hints to "defend" our shipping with. Sure the hugs are better than high fives, but I personally don't think they're big enough. I love the hugs as much as everyone else does, of course!
No I think it's a fair point. I think everyone knows it already, but just to remind people ;-)

Though that's not to say that some other hugs can't be shippy... There's a certain hug we got this years, though maybe not a hint in itself, certainly holds more depth that most fearhugs. (Oh and RG, I'm now convinced that Nyasu isn't in it after all :p Higher-quality-than-YT videos ftw!)

Omg.... this is so porn... I swear o__O; I mean, just look at it! XD

Kojiro, just what are you doing with your hand down THERE!? You made Musashi really enjoying it... O//O;

Get laid arleady, you two! >0


He's admiring her butt? XD

Awwww, you! I love how you're always able to find the dirty side of everything. ;]<33


Oh they are, they are! x3 Here's another which I unearthed from all the piles of crap in my C: drive. Lol at their positions...

My favoritestttt fearhuggggg! :3

Gotta love where Musashi's leg is ;] Oh yes, and the touching. <3


I know that I haven't posted any solid rocketship hints but I just found a pair of really good ones

Now those are much better! ;)

Exactly!

Our ship has much more evidence compared to some of the others, so apart from all the small things...we have some big things too! :D


Well, knowing Musashi's sense of aesthetics, and considering that they designed their uniforms on their own, I'm quite surprised how cool they look xD
They're always fashionable! O.O

Agreed! A two-coordinator contest with Musashi and Kojiro would be epic! <333

It'd be really nice to see those two in action...and they definitely have the skill for it and looks! :3

I think he meant all shippers, so yes, we are a part of it. Most of us don't use, for example, fearhugs as hints though. We just enjoy the cute closeness they have with each other. And things like "Megu-chan" are like fanservice - it doesn't have an important meaning, but we can still enjoy it! Its not like we take those things seriously, right?
"Megu-chan" isn't shippy. In any way.

Of course not! :p Fearhugs, touching, handholds, closeness, "Megu-chan" is all just fanservice as far as all of us, I think I'm right in saying, are concerned. The hints that really matter? Well, they happen to include the fact that Musashi and Kojiro don't think that even death can part the two of them. How many other ships can say that with certainty?!

(Doesn't mean we shouldn't enjoy the fanservice though!! ;-))

Hugs and hanholds =/= high fives.

This is how I regard it, especially since I'm not hugging and ESPECIALLY handholding with my male friends.
But I'm giving high fives pretty often, on the other hand.
And if other shippings get at least one hug or handholding (in the way Musashi and Kojiro are) or other unneccessary touching, you would see them having spasms arleady.

I've noticed that some Rocketshippers have a tendency to understimate such things on times when Rocketshipping gets some more love in the series.

I remember back in Kanto (read as "the period when M&K hugged and handholded every 5 seconds"), Rocketshippers enjoyed every time it happened, but... how should I put it... When you just see two people hugging and handholding all the time and nothing more, you're getting impatient after some time. Because you want to see MORE. In the end, you get used to hug and handholds and don't think that high of them.

But everything changed, beginning from Jouto, it was getting only worse.
Every time we got some little shipping hint during AG, we had a little party (well, we were pretty decimated at that time =.=). But at least, it taught us to respect everything we got, even something little.

That's why it hurts me, when someone understimates hugs and hanholds, just because they happen often... or something.
I've been suffering lack of shipping for too many years to understimate them and think nothing more about them as "cute", I'm sorry =.=

Yes, I regard hugs and handholds generally as a shippy hint, not just fanservice (though it depends... DP146 glomp was clearly NOT a fanservice), because it's a sign of their closeness as well. Kill me.

I can't help but feel the same :p

Obviously you are NOT a R*cketshipper in the least! :p But if you were very extreme in your views (like a million times more extreme) you would be. Because basically, you're quite mild. And R*cketshipping is merely a mild Rocketshipper AMPLIFIED A MILLION TIMES so that their views are COMPLETELY disproportionate xD
[/quote]
Well, I've always though that R*cketshipper is a kind of extreme Rocketshippers that believes ina knightinashinyarmour!James x damselindistress!Jessie kind of relationship... ^^;

But it's still fanservicey for us :p

I agree with you that it's a sign of closeness, and another tick in the box for them being the best friends in the world. But best friends don't always equate to lovers, right? In that way, I find the hugs fanservicey (obviously xD) and friendshippy maybe, but I don't actually consider them shipping hints.

And not for one minute would I say that we shouldn't appreciate them! As a ship that had such a long drought of even physical closeness for so long, let alone real shipping, I think we all appreciate even the smallest things greatly. But that doesn't mean we should lose sense of the boundary between close friendship and shipping. I mean, I've fearhugged my friends countless times, but never have I once even wished that our relationship would last beyond the grave. It's that kind of closeness that makes our ship stand out from the rest, even if they don't get fearhugs either!! :p

Well, that too! But also the extreme views. Actually, isn't that basically an example of the extreme views? :p

Of course we have much better hints. But that doesn't mean that hugs aren't hints as well. Minor stuff, but always.

I can't blame people for thinking this way, though.
If you were so poor that you couldn't afford food and someone would give you thousand dollars, you would be happy as no one else in the world.
If you were a millionaire and get a thousand dollars from someone, you wouldn't feel so grateful.

It just works that way, pure psychology ;)


*hands you a cookie for getting the reference*

Awwww, you! I love how you're always able to find the dirty side of everything. ;]<33
Lol, thank you, in my real life, people love me for that as well xD; I guess it became my lifestyle, since for many years, I didn't have a clue how to make people like me xD;

Kojiro must be happy xD

Well, for me, hugs and handholds feel special and I reserve them for special people :p So this is justmy view.

But considering that Musashi and Kojiro were occasionally handholding/hugging other people too...

Ok, now I'm sad. My childhood got broken :(

If the Villageshippers got even 1/100th of what we had, I'm sure they'd be prostate with gratitude :p

Okay, I'll go away now.

Eh? That's news to me :p Who else were they handholding/hugging? (Other than Nyasu, and that's only the hugs...occasionally...)

Kojiro was hugging Takeshi and Jun (and hold hands with him). I don't remember about Musashi but I believe that she was holding hands with someone too...

I never said Megu-chan is shippy! :p I would have to be a big fool for thinking it means something. But yes, we can still enjoy it among other things.

Bleh, let's just forget what I said about the hugs. It's just my view! They do make me squee and go all "this shipping is SO going to become canon <3" (you know the feeling), if anyone was wondering. I don't want to crush anyone's dreams. And it's not like I'm a shipping mastermind or anything. :p

Yeah, but that's different :p IT'S NOT THE SAME!!!!!

It's just a friendly intership debate :p If you can even call it that. I don't think we can crush even Jeska's childhood dreams by such a thing! It will at least get our brains working, and doing some constructive thinking about the ship, rather than just posting caps like brain dead slugs.

I didn't enjoy it, but it's just me :p I just don't like all that "-chan" thing xD;

But you all say it such way that I felt kind of silly and retarded for believing that those are hints... :( You didn't crush my dreams, it's just that since I was 12 I've believed that those are hints and I was sure that other people regard it this way as well! So it was kind of shock for me, that I was delluding myself all these years :p
But I'll be fine, I've gotten through worse things :lol:

Let's just forget it, it doesn't matter how do you really call it, after all. We're going to be canon nevertheless! <3333

Yeah, but that's different IT'S NOT THE SAME!!!!!
SEE? :p It's DIFFERENT!

When you hug a person you love, it's shippy. When you hug a friend, it's friendshippy. That's the difference. Not every hug is the same ;)

You didn't crush my dreams! It's just that I've just learnt that I was being silly for all these years and I believed that I'm mature, sincere Rocketshipper :p

Oh gosh, this is so mostly my fault for being an insensitive bitch D:> But anyway, I never meant to make it sound like I thought anyone was stupid for thinking that way! I just don't think it's as shippy as some other things the ship has going for it, that's all! :sweatlol:

Yeah okay, so Kojiro and Takeshi didn't have such close physical contact xD It's different.

You insensitive bitch! XD

Of course I don't think that hugs are that important as other shippy hints. That's why I call them "minor shippy stuff" :p
Is that ok? :3

Especially if I don't think I'm THAT kind of shipper that can't think at all and just spam the thread with hug pics "like brain dead slugs", claiming them hints and have spasms :p I'm a thoughtful shipper, with lots of various reflections about the Rocketshipping. At least I believe so xD;

Yeah okay, so Kojiro and Takeshi didn't have such close physical contact xD It's different.

Cuz he shortened it! It's a nickname! It's so cute that they're friends x3 (And don't pretend like we wouldn't die of squee if Kojiro ever called Musashi as "Musa-chan"! xD)
Is that ok? :3
Lmao, of course it is! :lol: Why are you asking me like I'd disapprove?! Basically, we agree!

So don't watch that dub crap? D:

But I love the show...

Or at least, don't make such a big deal out of it.

I'm not.

Aww D: Why he is your best buddy, then?

I admit, I don't hate him (as much as I'd like to...) Call it love hate or something, I dunno, because as much crap as he's written over the years, there are also a few gems and you can tell he really does care deep down ;) VERY deep down.

That's why. We're so much alike! I may bitch at you guys, but I do care deep down. VERY deep down. ;-)

No I think it's a fair point. I think everyone knows it already, but just to remind people ;-)

That was actually directed at me since I was going "WTF since when aren't fearhugs hints?"

And to hopefully settle this, how about fearhugs/handhold/etc are hints, but just minor ones. Can we all agree on that? (Just for the record I do agree with you Jeska, I just don't want to fight over this.)

(And am I the only person not able to get onto #teamrocket?)

I already gave you the link, but for anyone else.

http://www.freewebs.com/rocketshipper/javachat.htm

I have a backup on my site.

This next part is probably off topic and dumb so I'll spoil.

So I was looking at other ships today and I saw how nice everyone's forum is. I know school is about to start for most people, but I think it'd be nice if we could at least have some banner for the other forum. Especially since Jeska wants to start up the anthology project next month IIRC, so we should be getting more members there.

Oh, that. I've just realized that he used her name instead of family name (that -chan thing distracted me xD). So yeah, it's cute that they're friends :3

Well, I wouldn't squee if he called her Musa-chan, but it depends if she would like it or not (some girls hate it)... but as far as I know her, she will like it XD
So if she would like it, I think I squee as well, even though I personally don't like that suffix.

Lmao, of course it is! :lol: Why are you asking me like I'd disapprove?! Basically, we agree!
Lol, then what I'm fussing about? I'm really silly :lol:

You? A thoughtful shipper? Pfffft, you are just a brain dead slug ;-)
Haha.

Yup! That sits well with me :) (And was kinda what I was trying to say before anyway :p It just got lost in brain --> finger translation...)

I was talking mostly about the Musa bit :p Again...
