I genuinely thought I'd seen every permutation in that fandom corner until someone linked a fic that crossed 'Dragon's Crown' with 'Final Fantasy XIV'. It's out there. The author set it in La Noscea and had Shrimpo as a wandering culinarian who keeps running into this incredibly earnest, duty-bound paladin version of Tisha. The contrast between his chaotic energy and her rigid code creates this hilarious yet oddly sweet tension. It's not just a gag either—they actually dig into how their respective worldviews clash and then slowly align.
I stumbled on it on AO3 maybe two months back? Tags were pretty thorough: 'Crossover', 'Food as a Love Language', 'Mutual Pining'. The writing's a bit rough in spots, but the characterization feels spot-on. There's one scene where he tries to teach her how to properly season grilled oysters and she's taking it as seriously as a tactical briefing that really sold me on the dynamic.
That's the only one I've personally read front to back. I've heard whispers of a 'Genshin Impact' crossover floating around on a private Discord, but I couldn't tell you the title or if it's any good.

Wait, are we talking about 'shrimpo' and 'tisha'? I've been in some obscure fandom corners, but this one's new. If it's a typo for 'shrimp' something else, I'm lost. Maybe a nickname from a game like 'Genshin' or a webtoon?
That said, the best slow-burn I ever read was for a tiny ship in 'The Locked Tomb'. Took 200k words for a hand touch. The author basically built a whole alternate universe. For niche pairs, the tag 'slow burn' plus 'mutual pining' on AO3 is your lifeline. Sometimes you gotta wade through a lot of 'established relationship' stuff to find the good long builds.
Anyway, if 'shrimpo x tisha' is real, try filtering by word count—higher often means more room for the slow simmer.

Wow, what a specific ship to ask about. I'll admit I had to think for a minute because that's a pretty deep-cut pairing, but it actually makes a ton of sense when you consider their dynamic in the source material. The emotional tension almost writes itself, honestly. It's all about contrasting energies—one character is usually this outwardly bright, chaotic force, while the other is more reserved, simmering under the surface.
Most of the fics I've stumbled across focus on that friction. You get scenes where the bubbly one's relentless optimism bumps up against the other's weary pragmatism, and the space between them just crackles. It's less about grand declarations and more about the things left unsaid, the accidental touches that linger a second too long. The writers are really good at using that contrast to build this slow, aching kind of yearning.
What gets me is how they'll use the existing canon moments of quiet support between them and just... expand it. Turn a single glance into a whole internal monologue about restraint and desire. The tension comes from wondering who's going to break the careful distance they've maintained. I read one where they were forced to share a tent during a storm, and the entire thing was just descriptions of breathing and the heat between their backs. Nothing 'happened,' but it was utterly devastating in the best way.
I keep coming back for that specific ache. It's a masterclass in 'show, don't tell.'

The Archive of Our Own is basically Tisha and Teagan central at this point. I've been following the tag since the ship started picking up steam, and it's by far the most active spot. The tagging system alone makes it superior for finding exactly what you're in the mood for—angst, fluff, smut, you name it, all tagged to perfection.
I know some people still swear by FanFiction.Net out of habit, and yeah, you can find older works there. But the interface feels so clunky now, and the tagging is a nightmare. Tumblr can be good for shorter snippets and headcanons, but trying to find a complete, multi-chapter fic there is like searching for a needle in a haystack. I've wasted hours scrolling.
My bookmark list is 90% from AO3. The consistency of updates and the sheer volume of content focused on that dynamic is unmatched. Sometimes I'll dip into Wattpad for a specific AU, but the quality is wildly inconsistent. AO3 feels like home for this pairing.

especially those with mutual pining and forbidden love—those tropes hit different. One standout is 'Whispers in the Dark,' where the tension between the two leads is so thick you could cut it with a knife. The author nails the slow burn, making every stolen glance and unspoken word ache with longing. It’s set in a dystopian version of the 'Tisha Dandy' universe, where societal rules force them apart, and the emotional weight is crushing.
Another gem is 'Fading Embers,' which explores a Romeo-and-Juliet dynamic but with way more nuance. The characters aren’t just rebels for the sake of it; their love feels inevitable yet impossible. The prose is lyrical, almost poetic, and the pining is so visceral you’ll find yourself yelling at your screen. The forbidden element isn’t just external—it’s internal, with guilt and duty tearing them apart. If you crave angst with a side of hope, this one’s a must-read.
