I wanna just say that like

Ships don’t need to end in a marriage with 2.5 kids, with them dying in bed together at an old age from natural causes in order to be enjoyable.

Like ships can come to fruition in other ways. Sometimes a relationship doesn’t happen, but attraction/feelings are acknowledged (sometimes not even by eachother, but other people). Sometimes a relationship happens but with an end goal that is quickly achieved and the relationship ended shortly thereafter. Sometimes it’s a mistake. And sometimes it is a relationship cut short, for any number of reasons.

And I understand enjoying the domesticity and comfort of your ship being fulfilled in a typical way, but Jesus Christ please look at some characters sometimes and go ‘yeaahhh they’d fuck nasty and then never talk again’ because that’s exactly what would happen and the fact you don’t know that is wilful ignorance

#best ships end with one/both of them dying #unnaturaly/at a young age #this is technically inspired by 911 shipping drama but applies to everything #if you can only enjoy a ship if it’s endgame then you’re not having fun #ever heard of ‘it’s not the destination that counts. it’s the journey?#and sometimes it’s not even the journey. it’s the goddamn daydreaming when gazing out the window #enjoy your ship. appreciate it for what it is. don’t pretend it’s invalid unless it reaches a heteronormative/sane/healthy ending #THIS IS JOT TO SAY THAT YOU CANT BE UPSET IF CANON DOESNT TREAT YOUR SHIP WELL #JUST THAT YOU DONT NEED TO FIGHT TOOTH AND NAIL FOR YOUR SHIP TO BE ENDGAME TO JUSTIFY LIKING IT #‘oh I like x but it won’t be endgame’ WHO CARES??? Let them kiss
