Lawlight likers may be an insufferable presence in the fandom to other kinds of Death Note heads, but be serious, how much of the longevity of the fandom do you think this ship is actually responsible for?

Oh my god the parallels of Sam's Hell trials to Jack's trials to kill God and Amara........ I'm going to end it rn. I always sort of thought this because of the similarities in that:
they're a set of trials which are a great burden to be shouldered by one person for the greater good (very much in a classic hero's journey sort of way).
yet despite this, the reason at the heart of WHY they're doing these trials is because of a belief in their fundamental worthlessness or corruption without completing this grand act for the greater good (Sam and his need to achieve purity from the demon blood, believing the trials are purifying him; Jack, thinking of himself as fundamentally corrupt and having fulfilled the 'monster' status he so desperately wanted to prove that he wasn't, believing that killing God and Amara is the only way he can achieve forgiveness).
But now having watched 15.15 and just finding out that Jack's going to DIE because of this and he's known it from the beginning - RAHHHFJDBFIUHRUI JUST LIKE SAM WANTED TO DIE IN THE END. Another parallel and I don't like it, it's a punch to the gut, a knife to the stomach.
Billie... when I catch you....

Excerpt (unecessarily dramatic monologue) from a potential Sir Orfeo retelling I will never write
Now there's a secret writers don't like to tell people often. We like to pretend to be mysterious, like we're caught up in The Art, like it controls us, and sometimes it feels like it does. But it's not true. So many scholars are obsessed with finding the "original version," who gives a shit about the original version? what matters is the story we have now, the story that's been told and is told and will be told, the story that's made and remade each time! These aren't dead cold things, they're breathing and breathed. We love to say there was only one way it could have ever gone but that's never true, that's what makes a tragedy tragic, that other choices could have been made, there are always a million other ways it could have gone, we just don't like to see them because it makes us feel better, because it's easier. Endings change all the time, for better or for worse, they're changing even now and yes, some are more fixed than others, more true, more immutable, more honest. But even these, sometimes, if you're really very lucky, you can reach out and twist into something else. Look at all the musicians who haven't died. Look at all the snakebites with poison sucked out of them. Look at the king who steps from the underworld and this time, his wife takes his hand behind him and he pulls her up and out and into the sunlight and a green so bright it should be illegal, into a city of stone and streams and roses, so many roses all pink and peach and gold and their velvet-springtime-hearthealed-ancient scent fills the air and is so beautiful even the most cynical bastard can't help but hope for a moment, for how can something smell like this without hope! And for the first time since he lost her she seems to truly awake.

Thinking about this and XehaBaldr
You think Xehanort blurting out "goddamnit you are SO PRETTY" like he's been holding this in for a long time and it's finally burst out during the final encounter with Baldr would have made him stop. Like the ancient darkness loses its influence on him because Baldr is too busy being shy over his quasi-crush giving him a compliment.
Meanwhile Eraqus and Odin is off to the sides wondering What The Fresh Hell is going on here. Wasn't this supposed to be a showdown. A clash of light and dark. Why are you FLIRTING.
