How to prevent my laning partner from tilting?

What I'm about to tell you might sound crazy, but I love full AP Nasus , and I play him best when I duo top as a support, and my teammates cooperate. I carry almost all of my games except the ones where teammates freak out and make irrational decisions to jeopardize the game out of anger. I will normally queue up for jungle, hide the fact that I'm playing Nasus and lock it in last minute, I feel like it's mischievous to do that, but if I don't my teammates will ban Nasus and I have to listen to them complain before I can even mute them, from there I will wait until last minute, and swap out summoner 11 for summoner 12 just to make sure top doesn't try to swap me and lock in jungle forcing me to play support top lane because thats unfair and I'll get steamrolled which leads to an even angrier team. I start item 3303 because it works really well on him anyways even in a solo lane and unless another lane feeds super hard, I will almost always get first turret, my record being 2 turrets in 10:47 with an Illaoi, I have always taken this strategy very seriously, and it works well for me for a lot of reasons, I enjoy playing it and so do the people I play with after we win, I've gotten everything from honors, friend requests and compliments to Disconnects, Inting, and flaming, but how can I ensure or maybe increase the chances that my teammate will cooperate and not get upset with my insanely effective, off-meta pick?

The answer to your question is a question in itself :

How long have you been playing this game and what rank are you? That is the REAL reason you are doing so well with a really awful pick.

You probably improved a bit faster than the other people playing at your level, which is why you're doing so well but it will catch up with you.

Your team needs a jungler for MANY reasons that have been enumerated since season 1.

Even if as jungle Nasus all you did was farm jungle and gank top, you and your team would be better off, relative to support top Nasus. Why do you insist on playing support Nasus and denying yourself the gold and your top laner the experience?

If I was the top laner and I saw you do this, I would be happy to have a friend on the lonely island that is the top lane :'D
