Lately, I've not only got into, but also started creating GIFsets and writing fic for an M/M/F OT3: Nagareboshi Hikaru/Honoo Riki/Tsukikage Sayoko from Turboranger. That's a first for me who had before only created fanworks about mutually exclusive OTPs.
My emoji code for labelling drafts of Red Throuple fanworks: 🩸⚾🩸(Blood drops for the half-human, half-Bouma Nagareboshi and Tsukikage whose blood are red instead of green like the other Bouma, and a baseball for ace pitcher Riki. And when put together, these emoji look like the horns on the helmet that's part of Nagareboshi's upgraded outfit).
What's been fun shipping an OT3 so far:
- Thinking about how the different combinations of the characters influence their overall dynamic as a trio
- Alternating between writing slash and het in one story (all bisexual engines go!)
- Inferring more subtle nuances of Turboranger that I wouldn't have uncovered if I had moved on from the show after finishing it like I thought I would
Off to think of spicy plots for trios! It's a new challenge that has got me starting the day before the rising of the sun.
