Crackship Idea:

I haven't interacted with The Dark Crystal fandom in forever but it's been on my brain.

Anyway, the idea of Skeksil's true love being Skeksa just tickles a fancy I didn't know I had. Kinda has the same appeal to Skeksil x Skekmal with the prestigious member pining over the one who is "wild and free".

Plus, it's just juicy juicy angst.

I might dive more into this who knows.

Skekmal i looov u i miiiisss u...

SkekMal: This date is boring.

UrVa: This is not a date. I said I was going for a walk.

SkekMal: Then why did you invite me?

UrVa: I specifically told you not to come with me but you said, "I do what I want, Archer" and followed me here.

SkekSo: Everything I say is backed up by whatever the opposite of facts and logic is.

Speaking of SkekShod, where did ZokShod even come from??! I’m quite interested in it as a ship, but I’m a bit confused as I have no idea how it even started, considering that SkekShod is one of the Skeksis least acknowledged in canon.

I have literally no idea. The only thing I can think of is that they're both "spare" Skeksis who aren't consistently shipped with anyone, and also that Shod has this air of vulnerability that's a magnet for disgusting perverts like Zok.

In my opinion of all the skeksis the most threatening are Shod and Tek.

Let's think, most of the skeksis see Shod as a hindrance and for that reason they don't take him seriously... he could take advantage of that to see everything from a safe distance and would only approach at critical moments to make a deal. Tek not to mention, if he could he could make them sick and easily manipulate them...

Tek's too beaten down and timid to poison every last one of them and the Skeksis are too stupid to realize he very easily can. It works out for no one.

Meanwhile, Shod's just kind of like...
