Hi
Okay, I don't know who knows this amazing community namens
ship_manifesto so here is a little explanation. This comm has the self-claimed duty to make pairings more popular.
If you have an OTP which you want to boost, you can claim this pairing and write an essay which you post there.
But what is a manifest?
Simply put it's an explanation of the two characters, there relationship, hints why someone can ship them and an overview about the fandom.
To be more specific here is a quote from
ship_manifesto ...
Your essay should include all of the following points:
- Small character studies that allow the reader to get to know the characters and understand who they are.
- Canon or subtext evidence for why your characters work in a pairing.
- Your own interpretation of the pairing and why you choose to ship them.
- Some background information into how you became involved with the fandom, and why you were first attracted to the pairing.
- Meta/insight into why the reader should be following this pairing.
- Short fandom guide (fic recs, useful sites etc.; resources that will help a newbie find their way around fandom and your pairing.
Word Count --
Minimum - 1,500
Max. - 5,000 (not terribly strict about the max. but please keep it in mind)
Personally I would love to write an essay about Jalex but I think my English is too bad for that. Also I'm not sure which canon/subtext is the most important for them. Screenshots are also a point. I only have the movie so that I don't can make screenshots about the scenes in the episodes.
So my question... who wants to write an essay or wants to help me?
Edit: Here is the masterlist so that you know how a manifest look like...
