Hi.

So, I just made a blog post (so many blogs I know) but I think I really had to tell this to you guys, my friends, my readers, people who know me. So, I read this fanfic, that if you are a BaekChen shipper you PROBABLY have read because it is gold (link here), and it really... hit me. Right in the feels, and right in my mind.

So, I sort of started some kind of controversy when I made my TOP 10 EXO SHIPS and I made my first two ChenYeol and HunHan and BaekChen was left at #3. That has sort of changed.

I ship things usually because I have some sort of emotional attachment to it (sounds weird but I kinda worded it wrong), like HunHan, for example. They were great friends way back when but then they drifted apart and that makes me emotional. JeTi is my OTP because they were born in the same hospital, they both know English, and they are so close, and Tiffany knows how to stay strong even when Jessica wasn't there. I ship ChenYeol because not a lot of people ship it (and people who do can't write fanfiction) So I feel I sort of owe to the ChenYeol shippers to be their guide, to contribute. Chanyeol is my friend's bias, and so we've been kinda shipping them for a long time. BaekChen... I mean, yeah, I know the whole trainee story, I was a BaekChen shipper, and still am, and I know they are close. But BaekYeon wins with their whole dating scandal and how they can't be together and just all of that. 

My first EXO ship was XiuChen. I shipped what was given to me. And then all the other ships, ChanBaek, TaoRis, KaiSoo, SuLay, HunHan became a convience because that's what was there. I shipped all of those because that's what was given to me. Then I started shipping LuChen, and lemme tell you, LuChen is still being shipped (quite a bit) today. I actually searched and looke for LuChen, whereas I just sort of saw XiuChen and shipped it. And then, it came to BaekChen. I started shipping BaekChen after I watched EXO's Showtime, BaekChen was given to me. 

Now, if you are going to say: "ChenYeol was given to you too with the Playboy scene!" And no, that is not true. I shipped ChenYeol back in January, not as hardcore but certainly there. I looked them up on Tumblr and saw photos I liked, that is not my definition of given.

So now, you are probably wondering, do I even ship BaekChen? Yes, I do. But, if I were to remake that list, BaekChen would not make it onto the top 10.

You are probably angry at me now! How can someone not ship BaekChen? I have no idea, honestly, because I still do ship them. It's like saying my least favourite member is probably Kyungsoo, but I'm not saying I hate him. I'm not saying that I don't like him nor do I have no interest in him. I love Kyungsoo, in all of my male idol ranking he is certainly above a lot of people. The same goes for BaekChen. I don't hate them, but I don't love them. I love their friendship, but I don't fantasize romantically about them (I actually never did, except for fanfiction... does that count?), and I don't want them to date (again, never did). 

I feel like this is a bit deep for a ship, I mean come on. But I don't think you understand. BaekChen has been a big part of my life, they were my #1 ship for a very long time, and I am currently writing a chaptered fanfiction about them, so I feel pretty bad. I feel like I am betraying myself because I don't like them anymore, and I feel like I should really stop. This was a vent, so now I am going to give you the good stuff.

SO just because I am not shipping BaekChen as hardcore anymore does not mean I am discontinuing writing Stupid Cupid, and I will probably continue to write BaekChen. Just because I am betraying myself, does not mean I am going to betray you :D I have news for all of you, actually, You Are My Everything and Stupid Cupid readers alike, I have come up with a new plan! I am going to write 5 chapters beforehand, and then publish three, and then write five again, and publish three, and by then I should be finished so then I could just get everything out of the way and publish them all. It seems like it will take less time. ALSO I have finished writing a chapter for Stupid Cupid and You Are My Everything! You are probably writhing around saying: "I need tha chapterrrrrrrr" and well, yeah, sorry. I just have four more chapters to go and then I will publish !!
 

Thank you for reading, and I will get these chapters finished!
