All the Zayn ships are my ships

[oanja]

For some strange reason I decided it would be a good idea to make a post about Zayn ships... Mostly because looking at these photos and gifs makes me happy, but also because this is me in almost every fandom. I end up with a favourite character (and yes I'm going to call Zayn a character too... It makes me feel better about shipping him) and I will read that character with almost anybody. I'm basically like: "Give me all the fic with character X in it!" \0/

So when it comes to other pairings that don't have X in them, I usually end up feeling pretty indifferent towards them and mostly just read those fics if I already know the author or if it's a super popular fic in the fandom. I think this is why I don't ship Harry/Louis. Basically my brain is a weird place.

I think I should put a disclaimer here. I will make comments here about how cute they look together, or how cuddly or how they look like they want to kiss etc, but I'm not trying to prove anyone is gay or that they are sexually attracted to each other. This is just shipping and all in good fun. I am aware that most of these people are in happy relationships and all that jazz.
Also all the photos and gifs are from tumblr and if you wanted credit you should have watermarked your work. I'm way too lazy to find out who made each gif. *shrug*



I'm going to start with Zayn/Liam because they are my 1D otp... I tried to keep this short because I didn't want to post every photo and gif of them I had, but this still got a bit long.

Just urgh... My heart. Casual hand holding, what more could you want? (I wish there was video though, so I guess you can wish for more after all)


Forceful whispering. I love Liam's face, he really has the best face...


Not the best photo ever but hugging!


I dunno, this isn't even that shippy but I like their body language in this one.


Stage shenanigans (again, Liam's face. His squinty eyes are the best.)


Aw, petting. (But why is Zayn wearing a beanie and a t-shirt?)


Heart eyes (Zayn is amused by Liam's explanation obviously)


More casual petting. It's cute


I think this is Liam? (might be Louis??) but yeah... I think it's obvious why I like it.


More heart eyes


Yes just adjust Liam's hair. I'll just sit here and sigh happily


Then Zayn/Louis

I didn't really think much about this pairing before that one interview where Louis said they are partners in crime and after that I've been keeping a closer eye on their interactions (wow that sounds so creepy) because it was hard to see for me at first, but now I'm totally aboard this ship. (I just wish there was more fic *sigh*)

The general sillyness of this band is awesome, but yeah... I like the fact that Zayn is lifting Louis.


They are so cute in this interview!!!


Argh it's hurting my heart


I also might have a thing about boys sitting in each others laps.


Here we go again, being silly together. (I think Louis would bring out the sillier and crazier side of Zayn. I think that's also why people like to ship Louis and Liam but that's another story)


This looks like it could be from a family album. It's super cute


Louis leaning to Zayn is something I could watch for a while


I know they are talking about Hooters here, but I like that look Louis gives Zayn.


I don't know, it's just cute! *keysmash* (I think Zayn might be holding onto Louis' hand just to stop him from molesting people but let's ignore that. [Liam also does that quite a bit])


Zayn seems to be in the habit of just grabbing people and kissing them on the cheek. I approve


Zayn/Harry

I don't even know... This pairing is mostly just for the pretty. They just look so good together urgh.

Again with the casual petting


There is that manhandling again. Can I have some more please? (also why was Harry standing in a shopping trolley?)


I have no idea what is going on here, but I like it. (except why does Liam look so sad?)


Urgh...


As Zayn has said, Harry touches his face a lot. And why wouldn't he? It's a great face


Not very shippy as such, but yeah, I like it a lot


Harry's face in this


Which reminds me that I don't have that gif where Zayn pets Harry's hair and Harry looks blissed out. That is a nice moment. *sigh*

Stage whispering is the best. *nod nod*


Um um... I hope I wasn't the only one who thought about this fic when I saw this. (it is a very very good fic and you should go read it.)


Again Harry's face and Zayn's hand on his neck.


But yeah, this is still the best shippy moment for them imo



Zayn/Niall

It took me a while to get into this ship, mostly because it took me a while to admit that it's okay to ship Niall at all. It's really helped that he's suddenly gotten super hot and doesn't look like a thirteen year old as often anymore.

For some reason though I see this ship having the biggest power imbalance and um... I still feel a bit bad about shipping Niall /0\ Especially if there's porn. Obviously I need to get over this and fast. *nod nod*


Hugging is safe enought, let's have some of that


singing to each other is fine too


yes hugging is still fine.


carry on


yes good


Like this here! (do you get the same vibe as me? No? Okay I'm just crazy then)


Yes now I feel bad about shipping this again. I shouldn't look at these old gifs. I feel so skeevy


This is obviously just Niall stopping Zayn from poking at his nipples (which is fine and normal in this fandom... Tells a lot about this band tbh) but it's still cute



So yeah... Do you wanna share your favourite Zayn shipping moments? Join me in my insanity?

Hahahaha, your disclaimer. ♥

I ship Zayn with ALL THE PEOPLE. (...except Niall, I am still seeing 13 year old Niall, idg this "new hotness," and I'm pretty glad.)

I ship pining!Zayn/Liam so hard. Like, Zayn just can't quite work up the right way to tell Liam that he has all these FEELINGS, and Liam is just such a good bro who is slightly oblivious, and so it's like Zayn going "Liam, I really love... pizza." and Liam going, "Okay! Me too!" all the time while Louis and Harry laugh.

And also I just wrote Zayn/Harry which doesn't even make much sense, but they are pretty, so there you are. And Zayn/Louis! I swear, Zayn ships HIMSELF with these boys so hard.

^_^;

But if I don't ship Niall I feel bad then too, because it seems like he's being left out. And now that he did that twitcam with Josh I kind of ship them together... oops?

Haha~ I would definitely read that fic and most likely laugh at Zayn with Harry and Louis. But yeah pining!fic is great.

I can't wait to read that story, like honestly I'm super excited about it already. \0/ Zayn/Louis totally snuck up on me as a pairing, but I think it can be awesome and I need to find some fic. ^_^;

[lissa-bear.livejournal.com]

This post makes me want all the fic. All of it.

[oanja.livejournal.com]

Me too... There should be so much more fic with Zayn in it imo, but I'm biased, so what do I know ^_^;

[blueandbrady.livejournal.com]

Ugh, yes, good. This post. I was just having a conversation with elterriblefizzy the other day about how I would ship Zayn with all the other boys. So, good timing.

Also, there is this gif that I want to find, but Tumblr is the worst for actually finding things, so I don't have it. It's the one where Harry and Zayn are whispering on stage and it legit looks like if they tilted their heads a few more millimeters, they'd be kissing. For real. I just like that gif. Because pretty. You know. The ship with all the hair, exactly.

Take this one, though:


Anyway, I just want these things:

Zayn/Louis - where they get up to shenanigans which maybe gets them exiled (and then they have sex)
Zayn/Harry - where Harry is Zayn's wingman (ends up being Zayn/Harry/girl)
Zayn/Niall - Bros getting wasted and being bros (and fumbly, drunken sex happens) [I'm sorry, I love Niall! I want him to have all the sex, preferably with all the girls, but whatever. He's great, but I understand your apprehension. It's only recently that I've embraced my love for him.)
Zayn/Liam - ALL THE IDEAS EVER. Because.... because. I don't need to explain this one to you.

[oanja.livejournal.com]

Heh good timing indeed =D

Yes! I know the gif you are talking about and it's sooo~ hot (the one where they are wearing formal wear, right?) I've started saving gifs on my computer (because of reasons) but for some reason I haven't got that one, or the one I mentioned in the post, where Zayn pets Harry. Gross oversight on my part.

Zayn seems to have a thing about doing that. (or well at least he's done that to Liam as well) It's very cute!

Exiled? My mind went into a epic!fantasy place... what did you mean by that? But yes, I would read it no matter what it means \0/

Ooh that Harry/Zayn thing? It sounds like it would be super hot. Except maybe Zayn would feel a bit insecure about sharing with Harry, because he's such a ladies man. ^_^;

Drunken sex is an awesome trope! And I wish to see this scenario happen. \0/ (I've always liked him lots, but I just kept seeing him as the cuddly little brother type for the other boys, so now it's hard for me to look past that. But yes he should have all the sex he could want!)

I would love to hear each and every one of your ideas and I don't think I need to explain why. =D There can never bee too much Zayn/Liam fic. It is the bestest ship of them all. *sage nodding*

[blueandbrady.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, that one! (Ugh, I have too. Just a few. Ones that I open in a tab and don't take down for days... Lol.)

Hahah, exiled as in the other boys ban them from hanging out with them and they have to hang out by themselves after one too many pranks or something. Also, seriously, adrenaline fueled fooling around. I am so for that.

Hmm, yes, I can see that. Zayn thinks he's got this, but maybe it's near time to go and the girl says that she really wants both and Harry's just so cool and laid back about it and the girl is right there. IDK IDK. But I want it. That's all I know.

Drunken!sex is my favorite. Seriously. (I still see him that way, too, a lot. Like, I can sexualize him, but usually with other girls or other guys. The guys have just paired themselves off really clearly already for us.)

<333 It's like a full circle thing here. Man, was Vam really that long ago? Jeeeez.

[stepps.livejournal.com]

I agree with the Zayn/Harry wingman fic idea, that would be great!

[blueandbrady.livejournal.com]

Thanks! If it's more than just me interested in that idea, I may just write it then!

[stepps.livejournal.com]

So many great gifs and pics!

I adore Zayn, he is the cutest and funnest and I want to at once smish him and kiss him.

I've been seeing a lot of value in Zayn/Louis lately too! They're so sweet and goofy together! I can see Zayn crushing on Louis and deciding to be a gentleman about it and date him. Like, get Harry's permission first, do the whole dinner and a movie, kiss on the cheek and keep his hands to himself until the second or third date kind of thing. And Louis would find it at once endearing and frustrating! And Harry would laugh and laugh at them :D

Also, OT5 from Zayn's perspective. Fandom needs this asap.

[oanja.livejournal.com]

He is my favourite and I don't feel at all bad about it... ^_^;

Ooh, I love that idea, maybe you can write it? *puppy eyes* I especially like the idea of Harry laughing at them, hee~ it would be awesome.

Agreed, that story needs to exist somewhere, or more than one... I would definitely read more than one ot5 fics from Zayn's perspective. *nod nod*

[clachnaben]

This post is the best post \o/ ALL the ships for Zayn!

I hadn't see some of the Zayn/Louis ones and the one where he's got his arms around him and is casually holding his hand? *________*

[oanja.livejournal.com]

*nod nod* ship all the Zayn things. =)

That is a very nice gif, they look so cudly.

[mikhale.livejournal.com]

I have nothing but happy sighs for the Liam/Zayn gifs. *happy sigh*

[oanja.livejournal.com]

Yeah me neither. I spend a lot of time just sighing and making chin hands at them. :)
