Does anyone else ship their own villagers?

[TheRevienne]

awhwhw, I can definitely see them being cute together ;w; Cranky/Sweet is a good combination and their designs are both autumnal feeling to me
I’ve had the same issue with being more attached to one villager from a couple on my island and then feeling terrible about splitting them up. I have to imagine them being pen pals/in an LDR to cope with the guilt

Haha yes! I have another cranky wolf now, Dobie, but she's not interested. She talks to Clay a lot though, my lazy hamster and tries to boost his confidence up which is super cute. I think they're just BFFs though

 

[helloxcutiee]

I ship Blaire and Marshal together since they're always hanging out at each other's houses so they're definitely dating in my mind ahaha.

 

[Clock]

I did a few times, but my villager ships are cringe.

 

[SpaceTokki77]

I was thinking about shipping Marina and Zucker because they had this conversation where Marina was like “I think you’re cool, Zucker” and he was like “Really? Well, uh, i think you’re pretty cool too”
But Marina is supposed to be a young adult and Zucker is around 9-14 maybe.

I didn't remember this at first, but in City Folk town I had Avery and Apollo. I made a rainbow shirt in my Able Sisters and Avery was the first to wear it. At first I thought it was just cute and then he started hanging out with Apollo all the time. They would get into fights sometimes too. My friend and I decided they were dating secretly and came up with a crazy narrative for them. It was super fun.

 

[.: Meri :.]

I haven't in a while, but earlier on in my town I was certain that Blaire and Charlise were dating—they always wore the same shirt, hung out together a lot, always wanted me to deliver something to the other... but unfortunately I think they went through a nasty breakup. They stopped wearing matching outfits, stopped sending presents to each other, and I remember one time when Blaire visited my house, she made a rather snide remark about Charlise. Blaire soon moved away, and Charlise stuck around for a long while after she left before eventually heading on her own way. I haven't seen any of my villagers be quite so close, or quite so antagonistic, since those two.

 

[DaisyFan]

I have actually!

In New Leaf, I ship Carmen and Snake. I used to ship Vic and Yuka and Kiki and Tex, but three of those villagers left.

In New Horizons, I ship Coach and Whitney and Filbert and Poppy.

A few months ago I thought Diana and Raymond could be dating as they spent a lot of time together, quite often I'd find Diana in Raymonds home and they seemed to get on well but in the last month or so now Diana and Sherb seem inseparable, their homes are quite close together and they're always visiting each other. I thought the lazy personality wouldn't agree with Dianas snooty personality but they don't seem to let it get in their way and look really cute together

Kyle isn't on my island now but when he was he seemed to be very close to Fauna, they spent a lot of time in one another homes and were another sweet looking pair.

 

[k e r f u f f l e]

In a way, yes! Greta and Walt were extremely close, so I moved their houses side by side. They were the elderly love-birds of my island. Then I decided to move Walt out, and I pretended that he passed away. I built him a shrine next to Greta’s house.

Later, Cyd became Greta’s random move-in neighbor. He acts like an old European metal-head. Him and Greta jive pretty well. Maybe Greta will find a new beginning...? lol

 

[ZeldaCrossing64]

I ship Fang and Apollo together, honestly. Their houses are right next to each other's but they don't interact much, besides the occasional "who's the crankier villager" convo. ("Constructive, my hindquarters!" That's the most hilarious thing I heard Apollo say-) I also like to think that Beau and Apollo are best friends because they seem to get along the most.

I also ship Fang and Freya because one time they were singing Bubblegum K.K. together. I'm not sure if Freya has the music hobby or not, but I know for sure that Fang has the education hobby. Meaning that he was willing to sing with Freya, and without a mic!! <3

 

[Stikki]

Grizzly seems to be into Francine, but I haven't gotten to know them well enough yet to start shipping etc. I decided to redesign my whole island at the end of last year, which meant 8 brand new villagers who I haven't spent much time with because of all the renovations going on and the massive update/HHP dropping before I got done with it and distracting me.

In the past I definitely shipped certain villagers. I had a whole tangled web going on with Shari being in love with Audie, who was crushing on Bud, who wanted Marcie and her child to run away with him. Appollo and Blanche had a secret thing going on, leaving him crushed when she left, so he developed a secret infatuation with Tiffany, who Raymond was also crushing on.

I only have Shari left on my island out of all of those mentioned (I only kept her and Flurry in my recent revamp) and she's been with me from day 1. I wonder if she still thinks about Audie? She's definitely more quiet and withdrawn from the others, it's weird haha

 

[Shoutarous]

I wouldn't really say I'm HUGE imagining my villagers together. But I do like to think my islanr is telling a story and all my villagers are characters. Don't quote me entirely, but I do think Genji and Kabuki are together - to some degree. I had moved them both in recently and sold off Merengue and June (the villagers who don't fit my theme) and since then they've always been together. Walking around on the beach, at eachothers homes, sending eachother gifts. I think it'd be a cute duo, judging on the fact they have similar interests and they could be a kabuki-actor and calligraphy artist. As for my other villagers, I don't think so. I used to think Ankha and Apollo had a crush on eachother but nowadays they're constantly getting into arguments. I feel kinda bad. My island is always full of drama @_@

 

[Xara]

i prefer to ship my villagers platonically (ex. zucker and kid cat), but i do have one semi-romantic ship — whitney and sprinkle. it started with this story that i wrote last year for a tbt event, and stuff that has happened in-game (hanging out, celebrating their birthdays together, getting presents for each other, etc) has led to me genuinely shipping them. i admittedly intended for their ship to seem more platonic than romantic in the story i wrote, but it definitely has some romantic flair to it, and i’ve started to lowkey ship them romantically as well.

i also ship whitney with apollo because of the animal crossing movie, and have even considered inviting him to my island to create a love triangle of sorts.

 

[kusariyaro]

Oh i do 100%! I personally shipped diana + fauna anda audie + whitney! I had all four of them but i gave diana and fauna to a friend so i dont have them but they are still together i have kept the audie and whitney and i gave them a beautiful shared yard and im planning to give them a shared roomates house in the dlc whenever they appear on the beach!

 

[Moonlight.]

yep!

• poppy and filbert have cute little kid crushes on each other, but they're both too nervous to confess
• fang and freya are an old married couple and they like to watch over the rest of the villagers
• lolly and molly are dating and love having reading/coffee/stargazing picnics together
• bianca and quinn are dating because they're two of my favorites and i think it'd be cute
• bam and raymond are dating, always thought himbo x smug ships were adorable so there you go lol

in reality i ship my villager with bianca and quinn but shhh

 

[mermaidshelf]

I have some ships, both romantic and platonic, in New Leaf as the dialogue lends itself more to connections between villagers. Smug villagers have this one dialog about rumors surrounding themselves and another villager on your island. There's also a dialog about a male villager walking in on a male and female villager and making a comment on it and they're like you wouldn't understand.

 

[Croconaw]

I don’t. I don’t like to consider any of them in a relationship. I like to think they’re all friends with each other.

 

[michito]

They aren't serous ships (I'm not a shippy person in general, outside the.. 2-3 ships I love, idc much about the rest), but totally! I love to come up with backstories for my villagers, so aside from couples I also got best friends, families...
When I was little I thought Cyrano and Harry were a married grandpa couple lol And on my current ACNL I got Skye and Sprinkle.
Outside couples, Blanche and Joey were mother and son (they moved in one after the other and their houses were next to eachother). After some time, Joey grew up a bit and Blanche let him live on his own, so I moved him out :'p

 

[pottercrossing]

I remember Flo and Rodeo spending a lot of time together. They eventually got married, but then I caught Flo cheating on him with Sly, so that went downward. I also remember a similar story with Pompom and Maelle. They got married, but then Maelle was caught cheating with Flo. Audie and Marshal were married once, but then Marshal fell in love with Flo, so I'm pretty sure we can all imagine how that went. In the past, there were a bunch of other love triangles on my island as well, but I have yet to spot any more.

 

[savanniebananie]

I shipped Beau and O'hare together mainly because they would talk about their friendship and I would find them at each others' houses sometimes. I would write them letters saying, for example in Beau's case, "Y'know, O'hare likes you. You should totally go ask him out. I'll be your best man" just for fun. Then O'Hare moved lol- he broke Beau's heart smh. Now I ship Dobie and Vivian but that's it at the moment.
