So i’m a bit out of the loop when it comes to ships and shit, since it’s always seemed silly to me to literally fight for a ship, but I’m honestly curious & got some questions rn.
So,
about McReyes
A few months back, an anon req I doodle McReyes for this art meme. It’s a strange ship to me. I’m a simple lad & I like my McHanzo, Pharmercy, & R76. So shipping Reaper & McCree together was pretty weird, but it’s whatever. I drew the pose– Reyes giving McCree a kiss on the forehead–which I think is some pretty platonic stuff anyway. I tagged it as ‘ McRyes cause It has both characters in it, and it’s still a ship, however platonic I depict them. (Also, for efficient tagging, but I’ve since un-tagged it since I’d rather not further draft into this apparent ‘war’)
Now, I guess my question is, what do you tag platonic ships? I enjoy a lot of platonic ships & I just thought to use the common ship names I see around, but? I’ve been seeing more often that people highly hate that in terms of
McReyes. Like, I understand the father son relationship dynamic is highly favoured and etc etc(same tbh) so what is that tagged as? y’know? Are the different ship names for different types of the same ship? Is there a shipping guide lmao
Anyways, I’m just bringing this up because I found out i got blocked by some rando for it, and i’ve been seeing more and more McReyes hate so I’m just curious what other people think really
(p.s where is this hate coming from i’m not even sure? what happened?)
Ah I see my time has comeFirstly, there is no name for the platonic ship thus far. This is what frustrates a lot of...
