my thoughts on exo otps {why not join the fanwar}

hahah just joking [about joining the fanwar]. i'll try not to be biased OKAY. so dont say stuff like "you're saying ..... because you ship them." NO. i'm going to tell you the truth (even though it pained me and my feels)

 

baekyeol - 
/sigh. from the start, they totally gave off a feeling of fanservice, although i could guarantee that there's a strong friendship as a base in that ship. it's like, their head marketing organizer told them to BE baekyeol, a way to attract more fans and making money for them. i felt that, starting from wolf era, baek didn't give a fudge about their head marketing organizer's orders and just like "i'm not going to act anymore". chanyeol started getting orders from their head marketing organizer to change ships (chankai: which kai didn't give a fudge of and chansoo). but i think they do interact off-camera. they're friends after all, so sometimes, un-fanservice interactions do occur spontaneously.

hunhan - 
started with a bombastic entrance hahah bubbletea everywhere. they do care for each other and i do felt like sehun genuinely cares for luhan. months passed and i think luhan is getting tired of him? or they rarely saw each other since they're on a different subunit. then he started moving onto layhan (which i secretly love), xiuhan, krishan. i have NO IDEA what happened to them until exo showtime is released. fans could see small, secret interaction between them. like, holding hands (not out in the open), looking at each other. oh, and the game where sehun told luhan to write his name with his hahah feels. i felt really happy that, as time goes on, they appeared to be less and less of a fanservice. dubbed as the backstage couple now (i saw a bunch of gif where they're holding hands and talking to each other in the dark). it's like they're not doing fanservice anymore.

xiuhan - 
i can't deny that their friendship is nice too. but all i could see is just fanservice fanservice fanservice. and, most of their interactions are caught on camera. well, i don't stalk xiuhan but if you're a shipper, do give me some videos or gif where they're interacting in a place where LOGICALLY no one can't capture them on film. 

kaisoo - 
oh those gays. lewl, i do love their friendship and it doesn't seem too forced. i could say that there's rare fanservice and they interact unintentionally. 60%? spontaneous. kai adore his hyung and cares for him to death. kyungsoo is naturally not that kind that likes being "romantic" with boys i think? but there are some kaisoo interactions that kyungsoo initiated. MOTHERLY LOVE OH GOODNESS.

taoris - 
/snorts. those deranged person that looked like assasins at a first glance but is totally weird and oh goodness i can't explain. THEIR FRIENDSHIP IS ADORABLE. i do agree that some of their interactions could be based on fanservice, but maybe 40% of it? they have a genuine friendship where kris really loves (not that way) tao and cares for him. vice versa. and i could say that most of their interaction would probably be spontaneous because kris is not that type of guy that would carry out an order to interact with a guy. oh, and i saw a video where kris was playing basketball and tao came to support him and watched him play. and their midnight dates e w e

sulay - 
gaah /makes incoherent noises. i know they have rare interactions but when they did, CHAOS ENSUES. too bombastic hahah and straight-forward. they do give off an aura of fluff and innocence but their fic is really wonderful /cries a river. a bit of fanservice, maybe 58%? (see i'm not being biased)

chenmin - 
gave off an aura of abusive relationship (?) lewl. i do believe that they have genuine beautiful friendship, especially that they're the korean line in m. i do believe that they'd automatically cling to each other because the two of them are foreigners and stuff. they support each other and ohmygosh chen just gave an aura of protective and caring friend /coughsboyfriend. for xiumin. there's so many gif where chen would pat xiumin's skin or them entangling their fingers. xiumin laying his head on chen's shoulders.

chenbaek - 
oh my goodness their friendship and stuff /weeps. OH MY OH MY

 

i do like some un-main ships like chenbaek, kailay, chanlay, layhan, seho soohun i have no idea lewl baekxall 

do comment below if you want me to analyze certain ships. I WOULDN'T BE BIASED OKAY. and i'm a sort of a popped-into-my-head-suddenly kind of person.

keep this in mind that those otps that's exploding in front of a camera may be based on fanservice. BEWARE.

LOOL
I was talking about it with my friend during class,
but taoris' relationship to me is a whiney, airheaded
girlfriend who asks her bf to buy her stuff all the time
and kris is like the very lazy, sassy older bf that is all
like, "wow sometimes youre really annoying but youre
cute majority of the time so shuttup ok ill keep you"

bcz kris always seems to scold tao
and tao is just like, "but babe ;;;;;;;"

I don't get the SuLay ship tbh. I never see their interactions, and I'm like, "Ergh... how?"
I'm a total SuChen shipper though. :3
The TaoRis bromance is so cute ;a;
And so is Tao and Chen ;a;
And Tao and Suho...
I'm a XiuHan shipper though :3

lulz okay

xiuhan:
i think it's really a bro-bro relationship i think i told you before huh. friendship everywhere ya know. it's the kind where they play football at midnight and they compare each other's in the shower room. yep. it probably started out with their love for football, but as exo showtime started, the marketing ppl kind of saw how they worked and started promoting them like ALOT. i think xiumin is kind of tired of that though, luhan too. they aren't bouncing aegyo bunnies like baekyeol, they are the grandpas that sit back and observe. the chill dudes. they way the work, it's through subtle glances and approving nods, and idek midnight snacks away from prying eyes, bicep toning sessions in the sm gym.

chenmin:
precious precious precious okay i might just die

i think they really have a special dependence on each other ever since the china promotions. i agree with the foreigners thing, and i think it also strengthened them as persons. looking at ep 10 of exost, you can see how they're the ones that are unaffected but instead sympathetic to the "ghosts".
aaaaaaaaaanyway, tHEY ARE KINDA TOUCHY OKAY AND IT IS VERY PRECIOUS OMG i don't think it's fanservice tho, with sm so busy being despo with chankai and xiuhan. it's just how chenmin works, the little pats and hair ruffling as they go along.

not gonna say much bout the rest but sULAY TRIES SO HARD TO BE SUBTLE BUT IT'S ACTUALLY KIND OF OBVIOUS(and kind of ual)
