WHAT?! I have every right to waste my time doing this instead of working on my real art! It's me Birthday in a week! So STHU.Stamp template (c) Zat vould be moa.([link] )
Fanart (c) Someone on pixiv.....I think....
D.Gray-man (c) Katsura Hoshino
Pairing: Anti Neah Walker X Allen Walker
I'm against a yaoi pairing.....this is SO going to be my most viewed 'devination'......
WOWOWOH THERE TIGER! Don't get pissed off just yet! I have my reasons to rather hate the pairing...Sorry, but, not everyone who likes yaoi will love this.
Anyway, let's get to the point before I as always start getting out of topic.
So, reasons as to why I hate this:
First, alright, this is in no way a legit reason for calling this couple illogical....but it IS for calling it terrible.
It has 'the Yullen syndrome'
Almost every picture/fanart I see of it, or fanfiction for that matter, is associated with smut OR something hinting it, HECK, even in that panel in the manga where both of them are visible it STILL looks like Neah was 'admiring' his 'nephew'.
AND it almost never goes past that, it's basically what the fangirls wanted Neah to do to Allen at their first face-to-face meeting. No deeper look into the pair, no view that includes taking off the fangirl contact lens and looking at it with at the very least a slightly critical eye. Which, if you've known me long enough, you know bothers me a lot if in a vast amount(don't bother asking mommy what that means, I'll tell you, "a large amount/of great quantity").
Why Yullen syndrome? Because that's Yullen at its basic level. VERY few actually take their time and think about Allen and Kanda being a good pair before finally deciding to ship it.
I liked both Neallen AND Yullen, but, it was because of the same reasons, I DID think that at SOME point they would make sense, but after going through facts a few times, I actually realised how incredibly un-shippable they were, and thus, I now hate them(....not that there aren't worse pairings in fandom, I mean, I'd take those two over Lavita, Lenavi, MiraKrow/Kroranda, Cross X Anita, Loulen, and Lucky anyday....THAT DIDN'T COUNT AS GOING OUT OF TOPIC I- oh wait)
Second, neither of them seem to like each other
Allen never showed any familiar attraction towards Neah...Though, by the looks of those expressions he gave whenever he saw Neah, I'm guessing his feelings towards the elder are a mix of confussion, fear....and MAYBE a bit of happiness because he discovered he had some sort of connection with Mana even after his adoptive father's death or something, but, that's all. There aren't any other feelings he ever showed directed to said uncle, and I know I sound a bit hypocritical because I myself ship people who don't have any feelings for each other or have never showed(i. e. Rhodero, LenaFou), but the difference is that those pairings never showed a sign of disliking each other, or at the very least, not too oftenly. Allen on the other hand doesn't seem too fond of his uncle, and the fact that it may have been HIM that Mana had loved all along must make him almost as green as he would probably be if he didn't have his Innocence and Jeryy forgot about it.
And now why would Neah not be fond of his 'precious' host either?
Simple, to be precise.
If Neah even liked Allen he wouldn't have been so alright with taking over his body and/or probably permanently erasing him.The painful, to you at least, truth.
I don't care if you like this pair, you can't disprove me on that. NO one would want to hurt the other if he didn't have anything against xir.
And before you shove that 'past!Allen' theory down my throat, I know, 'Allen'(mind if I just call him Leo? You know, because L is before M[Mana] which is before N[Neah] in the alphabet?) was willing to sacrifice himself for Neah. TOTALLY means they've loved each other, right?
Wrong. Dead on even. Alright, they(Cross, Neah, Leo and/or Mana) MAY not have known of the 'side effects' that having an Innocence and a Noah memory inside you may cause, but, if Neah actually liked Leo, he would have looked at least a tad sorry for what had happened back then, hell, even when he did it it almost looked like he thought Leo deserved it(Dunno, maybe they weren't exactly friends.....). As for Leo's side....Well, he obviously DID do a great sacrifice for Neah, but it could have been because of a lot of things, like, he thought his life wasn't worth it anymore, he would do anything for an apperant 'friend', OR he DID love Neah.
But, they probably knew about Allen losing his memories, because, Neah was surprised only by the fact that Allen got younger, not because he didn't remember his past experiences, heck, he even went asking Timcanpy about what Allen, the new one, was like. And even if Leo DID have romantic feels for Neah, he's dead and gone, permanently erased, and if he does come back in some way, Hoshino is just being a softy, because, knowing DGM, we're only gonna get Leo's history with flashbacks and no more, this series isn't a fairytale.
And third, if Allen and Neah somehow separate(which I do believe will happen because he promised Cross, of all people that he would someday return), it is going to take both of them some time to trust each other, or like for that matter. And after they do....Allen will only see Neah as some connection to his past self and a bit of a role model and insparation/admirable person, and for Neah there are two options:
1. If Allen is like his past self, he would just try to tolerate him like he did back then.
2. If Allen is different from what he was, Neah would enjoy his company and be happy about not being with the old one.
If something DOES spark between them, then.....honestly, for obvious reasons, I could not see that as logical or likely, to be more precise.(Before you say something in the lines of 'Gay pairings won't ever exist in DGM!', first, look at Alma and Kanda, second, yamering about which character has what sexuality that HAS NOT been pointed out to excuse your pairing[for example, because you obviously don't understand what I mean, I make Allena be in my headcanon, and I excuse the reason as to why Lenalee didn't pick Fou with saying 'Lenalee is straight IMHC.'] just proves how incapable of discussing and proving your points you are, and it makes the pairing you think should be canon look quite bad, so, spare your keyboard, go wash your hands instead, knowing how much I type a day, and I'm freakin' nerd, your palms are probably making you look like Salad Fingers' long lost sibling right now.)
Other than that, I love both characters, heck, they're even of my favourites. And if you are wondering what kind of pairing I'd recommend or ship with Neah and/or Allen in it:
Recommend:
- Neah: with Cross, Lenalee, Komui, Jasdevi, Mana(in one way or another), and/or Tyki.....maybe Sheril if you had enough imagination;
- Allen: with Lavi, Lenalee, Miranda, Krowry and/or Chomesuke;
Ship:
-Neah: with 'Adam'(hey, seems kinda sexy, hehe), Cross, maybe Lulubell, Tyki, Mana(in both ways), Komui, Reever, Tiedoll....some more but not much;
-Allen: everyone except Lou fa, Rhode, Fou and Kanda;
My OTPs? I got more than you can count....whic probably doesn't much, but, I'll just say it in a way all can understand: A LOT. BUT, my OTP for Allen is Allena(CrossXAllen is close behind), and my OTP, and THE OTP(as in, my all-time favourite pairing) is Cross X Neah( Pfffft, so much damn ways to describe my feelings towards this that I don't know which to choose! <3).
I sencerely hope I did not sound too offensive, or you understood that I was just joking in most of the insults, and that you find my reasons good, and, better yet, agree with me.

Anyway, enjoy the stamp!

Lenavi, MiraKrow/Kroranda, Cross X Anita, Loulen, Yullen and Lucky aren't even that bad though.

But... But... I like Kroranda... They have completely compatible neuroses! It's just... so many OoC fanfics...
Anyway, I have nothing against your reasoning, for the most part, although I'm a bit confused that you would ship Cross/Allen when it probably has around the same likelihood. Unless that's irony or sarcasm or a joke, none of which seem to carry well over the internetz.

I suppose I'll have to apologise since I looked back at this and realised how offensive it was.
KroryXMiranda don't work well together because two shy people can never be together and stand each other. And a few other things I can't quite recall. But, don't bother with that if you like the pair. After thinking this stuff through, I realised that this is still just entertainment, and, there are all kinds of different people, so, chances are, every character can go any other one, it's only Hoshino who can actually estimate whether this character can go with such and such ones.(I honestly just go against some pairs, for two reasons - one, most who like a ship I'm against offer terrible arguments as to why they like it, something that makes me think it's alright to try and figure out whether stabbing myself with a kitchen knife will hurt me just for the fun of it, and two, the pairings has a vast amount of incredibly annoying fans.)
The OOC stuff....not something surprising considering that the fandom has been constantly whining about how DGM is so confusing lately("Oh, why the fuck do we study literature anyway? It's not like there's gonna be a time in my life where I'll have to make an analysis on some wacky book just to understand it better!").
Well...currently, I'm not sure myself due to the fact that I've been fucking obsessed with Neah/Marian for weeks(You know it's getting bad when you're trying to include your imaginary fanfic centred around them in any way when writing a story for your English class...), and, I haven't thought about any other pairing ever since. But, I believe it had something to do with me loving their love-hate relationship and how that's how I believe most couples should work out - you find out about the other's flaws first, then positive traits, you don't know what to expect from the other, and so.

I agree with your statement about Hoshino. I always think back to the Digimon 02 ending where the creator(s) decided to start pairing people off. Everyone was shipping TaichixSora and then the author came in and was all like, "Matt(Yamato)xSora, mother-fuckers. Deal with it." You never know what a writer might do.
Yeah... People don't bother with literature and then they complain when they don't understand something in fiction. Some stuff is just plain weird, though.
Eh... I'll take your word for that one, I guess.

Heh, well, it's only fiction anyway, just entertainment, it's not ALL THAT important, not it actually resembles real life unless their story is based on a real one.
All's school and ends school.

Poor Allen. Everyone ships him with everyone. But NeahXAllen is one of the worst DX
Allen reminds me of Edward Elric.....They both get paired up with everyone lol

Oy, lol. And that's not the only resemblace, haha. I can imagine...a fanfic titled 'My beloved' and the pair being EdXhisAutomail...

LOLOL IM GONNA SEE IF THEY ACTUALLY HAVE AN EDXAUTOMAIL FANFIC (they prob have winryXautomail tho)
I actually found a D. Gray-Man fanfic that paired CrossXTimcanpy
*shudders*
That was one of the strangest things I've ever read...

Just warn yourself about the possible smexiness before you read it!
...As psycho as this would probably sound to you....I actually ship that. Mosty because we don't know what kind of connection they had, and Tim seemed pretty saddened whenever Cross wasn't around(plus, Neah gave Tim to Cross...and since they're obviously my OTP the deeper connection Cross had had with Tim is, the happier I'll be, hehe~). And Tim is just too adorbs not to pair with everyone <3
I'm actually quite curious about that fic, seems that it got you more than you wanted it to, mind linking me to it? Don't worry about the content, I've read some pretty amazing stuff(i. e. Kanda getting pregnant, Yuu and Allen having twin nekos, Lavi and Lenalee falling in love, Allen being the one who loves Rhode instead of the opposite etc)

...Honestly, the story seemed more like a DGM parody rather than a pair-fic, haha. Kinda enjoyable, but I prefer Tim-centric Timcross fics.
(Yes, though he wasn't pregnant with Allen's child, he was a teacher with a daughter.)

i have to say, I actually did a Neallen RP.....that was a mind fudge and a half..literally XD
Naw i think its an alright pairing but not the best, Yullen is my OTP but only because i love the fact it would be such a dramatic pairing with loads of fights

ErikaDaniel98 In reply to IlluminaughtyCipher [2012-10-29 21:27:24 +0000 UTC]
Eh, to each there own, I suppose.
I typically dislike Yullen because I can only see them getting along at the end, you know, proving that opposites like that CAN get along(which isn't appropriate for a pairing because...it would be fallowing the false stereotype that opposites like that can actually attract)....but, I know what you mean by that last part, I like me some tough love from time to time, heheh.
