I don't think I've ever really cared about shipping in my life. I'm generally just cool to go with the flow. If something is written well or drawn well then I'm for it.
But I will say. The DC writers trying to push Jon/Irey and Damian/Irey tire me. I am not impressed with the dynamics going on there and the idea of Irey being in the middle of a love triangle is contrived and upsetting.
I felt safe before because Irey is 9, Jon is an adult with a boyfriend and Damian is a teenager. DC wouldn't let that happen. I knew the shipping going on behind the scenes but everything was fine. It couldn't happen.
But then we got alt universe Supersons. The same age as Irey. And Irey blushing at them.
Suddenly everything was very much not okay.
Again, I'm generally cool with whatever but I'm putting my fucking foot down at this one.
No.
I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD.
NO.

Lately, I've been seeing way too many arguments about why Ben and Devi wouldn't be a good couple or why they shouldn't be endgame, and to be perfectly honest they are all stupid. So here is my long rant debunking all of those arguments.
1.”They are too much alike, their personalities are too similar”
First of all, having similar interests and goals is not “being exactly alike”. It means you are compatible. They may share some personality traits but that doesn't mean they have the same personality.
Devi is accurately described as “Hotheaded” and a “Firecracker”. She is the one to have somewhat explosive outbursts (see throwing the beaker, throwing the textbook, ect). Even though she has grown a TON this season she still gets fired up (in a good way, I love her hotheaded tendencies)
Ben on the other hand could be described as someone with a “coolhead” (is that a term? idk it is now), we have literally never seen him have any sort of angry outburst. The few times we have seen him angry, he still managed to keep his cool. In fact we have seen him be the voice of reason to try to calm Devi down when she is having one of her “outbursts”.
Example: Ben pulling her aside to tell her she shouldn’t get emancipated and that she should make up with her mom.
(Also opposites attract doesn't mean that two completely different people will work together. Got to have some common ground)
2. “They are way too competitive with each other”
WHEN???? Show me a time, post relationship, where they have been even remotely too competitive with each other. Oh wait you can’t. In fact we have seen them work really well together as a team (see the debate tournament)
3. “They argue too much”’
BANTERING IS NOT THE SAME THING AS ARGUING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BANTERING IS NOT THE SAME THING AS ARGUING!!!!!!!!!!!
Ben and Devi have been through an incredible amount of growth and have both matured a TON this past season. We have literally never seen them really argue at all this season and even before that i wouldn't call their interactions arguing. They just have flirty friendly banter.
4. “Devi was over Ben when she got with Paxton”
No she wasn’t!!! Are we watching the same show?? Did you not see the whole longing loving looks at the dance?? Devi has literally never fully been over Ben. (she is however fully over Paxton).
In conclusion, there really is no sound argument against Ben and Devi being together. The way they have been set up and built up since season one is pretty much flawless. They have never fully gotten over each other, they have attempted but it never worked. Devi LOVES Ben !!! SHE LITTERALLY GOT STOMACH KNOTS WHEN SHE LOOKED AT HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have you seen the way that girl looks at him? She has never looked at anyone else like that. She chose Ben at the end of season three because she loves and trusts him. SHE ACTIVELY CHOSE HIM!!!!!!

but a tiny voice whispers in my mind: / ‘you are lost, hope is gone / but you must go on / and do the next right thing’
tim federle, high school musical: the musical: the series / frozen ii soundtrack, the next right thing
[image description: five stills from high school musical: the musical: the series, with lyrics from the frozen ii soundtrack edited over the top.
1. maddox looks at jet, whose back is to the camera, in disbelief. the text says ‘i follow you around’
2. maddox and jet as kids lie on their stomachs as they draw. maddox is looking at jet, smiling. the light is warm and yellow. the text says ‘i always have’
3. val stands in the doorway, with maddox sitting on an armchair to her left. maddox’s legs are resting over the chair’s arm and her arms are folded across her chest. she is staring at the distance, looking sombre. the text says ‘but you’ve gone to a place i cannot find’
4. maddox stands alone, in the dark, glancing to the right. her hair is in her face, and she looks panicked. the text says ‘this grief has a gravity’
5. maddox stands in the doorway, looking with curiosity at jet who is paying the piano, just out of focus. the text says ‘it pulls me down’.]

in my imo, in some ways jean being in a relationship w logan is kind of sad for her. like. jean and logan’s dynamic when he is MOST strongly asserting his feelings for her is so so uncomfortable to me, and is predicated on him just ignoring a lot of what she says and tells him. which jean pushes back against!! and they DO move to a different dynamic in later comics, where they do become these dear friends, but to me that earlier period is baggage that would be brought up in a situation where they DID start a relationship. and like i understand that canon isn’t going to do that. but acknowledging this long history of attraction w/out really being able to talk about how that attraction first manifested doesn’t really do anything to change the dimensions of their romance, to me, especially when that romance is so vaguely defined as is.

Ship: Jasco
Fake title: it can wait one night
Bachelorette au!
Jasmine is the next Bachelorette. She's charming, bubbly, and searching for love. And during the first night of filming, seeing all these women emerge from the limo, doing their cheesy pick up lines and silly little acts, she thinks that for once, she might find it.
Until Bosco emerges.
Bosco her ex.
Bosco, whom she thinks wouldn't be on this show in a million years.
Bosco, who introduces themself as though they hadn't broken Jasmine's heart—as though they'd never do it again.
