Really? I was looking for the shipping part, but I can't seem to find it. Could you by any chance enlighten me as to where I might find some threads of that category?

Ah, well, I think Captain Solo (solovei) is more or less some kind of shipping magnate for the community. I'm not involved myself actually - but I believe a lot of it happens on the community's AO3 site. I know there are shipping threads but maybe they're currently inactive.

Hi! I'm mew here. Ever since I started reading SSSS I can't get enough and wait (im)patiently during the week for updates and read through the comment section liking everything I can relate to. I am in big awe of Minna and am on the verge of asking her if she would need a PA because I would so totally do that.  ::)
Reading SSSS has given me a better understanding of these 5 nordic languages. It made me want to learn Finnish but after I saw how complex it is, I think I'll just uhm admire it from afar. I want to learn how to place these little flags into my signature. I'm sorta fluent in English & German and another minor language. Lalli is like my top favorite character. I can relate to him a lot. Like a lot of you I got confused with the genders at the beginning. Hehe that was weird. Good thing there is the character link which enlightened me extensively. So yeah that's it for now and please don't kick me out. I'll just be a little kitten meowing quietly in the corner.

Welcome to all the newcomers! Have some cookies! :squirrelcookie: :squirrelcookie: :squirrelcookie:

Oh! I can help! All you have to do is type the country name between ::, so : france: without the space will give you :france: and : usa: without the space will give you :usa: and so on. :)

May I ask which other language? There are lots of speakers of "minor" languages here, so it's entirely possible that somebody else here might also speak that language. And if not, it'd still be pretty cool.

Welcome Lovelia! I decided to try and learn Finnish but admiring it from a far is also very nice because it gets kinda confusing sometimes  ;D
Hope you like it here in the forums~

Also welcome to all the other newbies that I couldn't greet bc of school sucking my soul away I hope you're enjoying it here too

So my co-worker introduced me to SSSS, and now I can't get enough!

I'm Morgan, I'm 18, and American!
I literally cannot chose a favorite character, bc I love all the cast (which is rare.) They are all my children. (I also already am starting to ship things SEND HELP)

Other than the obvious interest in SSSS, I play video games and write fanfiction mostly.
I'm really glad to be a part of this fandom, even though I've only been a fan for a week. You guys seem to me to be a great group, better than other fandoms I've been in in the past.

So HI! :D
Languages:
Fluent: :usa:
Somehow remember bits and pieces: :france:
I took it, but was never any good: :spain:
Would like to learn: :denmark: (please, i want to talk to my cousins, they only speak danish)

Oh yes, I realize, but it was the least hefty username I had. It was also the most fandom-neutral. We'll find a shorter name for me.

You guys pick nicknames for members, oh no. I suppose EDBS would work, or earthdragon, as suggested earlier.

Well, not everybody, but the longest are often abbreviated after a moment :) If it's not a problem for the member.

Oh thank you! I shall try out the fancy code with the flags now. I hope it works. *checks tabs* *clickety-clack*

Other languages: Tagalog & Cebuano/Visayan (the latter although being the major lingua franca in the Philippines, which on a side note is not taught formally in schools and universities, is curiously not the national language). Ah languages! Always a fun topic to talk about. I teach German part-time in a small language institute and am trying to learn French on the side. We also had a bit of Spanish in school before. A lot of spanish loanwords can be found in Cebuano, due to the spanish colonization from 1521–1898. Linguistics, art & felines have always been interesting to me. Which is why I like SSSS so much. It fuses several favorites of mine into one splendid artwork. Minna's work has so much style and class that I'm surprised that SSSS is not the #1 webcomic out there!
