could you maybe write a little about my fave repair afforoll?

I’ve written a bit about them myself but I’d love to see other people’s opinions on them as a couple :)

(Completely fine if not ofc!)

AFFOROLL

This is actually a ship ive considered shipping myself..... affogatos snobish attitude mixed with butterrolls ego and naiveté blend togather quite well. And best of all theyre a ship i forsee tons of choas between hehe.

SIMILARITIES

Most obviously, both characters have quite the large ego, presented pretty differently i will say. Affogato is much more egotistical in his appearances, making sure people can see his greatness when you look at himz which is always a great character trait, but thats mostly it the rest of his attributes are not really being shown off the same as just him. Adversely, butterroll doesnt even seem to be trying to flaunt or gloat, often just boasting about his acheivements while throwing his other creations under the bus (cough, cough MATCHA COOKIE) his ego comes from what hes done and made not really focusing on himself as a person (even though it is implied he has plenty to show off about himslef personally). Another trait they share is apathyz while affogato is a slightly more empathetic charcater, that is clearly not his intention and is being willingly ignorant while butterrolls ignorance could be summed up to him being a "himbo" or could be because he is so self absorbed the feelings and well-being of others is juet something that never crosses his mind. Infact the cookies of darkness all have intereeting ways of feigning ingorance and its pretty interesting seeing them all deal with it since most of them are well meaning in some way. Next and probably the even more obvious connection between the 2 is their association with the cookies of darkness, meaning that ultimately even if they both joined for seperate reasons they have the same goal. Although when it comes to their roles in the cod i dont rewlly see them intersecting, considering that butterroll is given a specific role (to bake) and affogato just joined after loosing everything and kinda seems like a replacment for dark choco especially since he only gets mentioned 0 times AFTER joining and gets mentioned ONCE when he does join😭, so what he is actually doing, i have no idea; mabey dark enchantress just enjoys housing the homeless and evil.

DIFFERENCES

Im reading butterrolls story specifically to write this and this guy is way more loopy and than i orginally thought, oh my goodness. Moving on. I actually couldnt really think of many attributes they have different other than their motivations and backstory, alot of the personality traits they have are the same but presented in different ways such as their enthusiasim or methods of acting. Being motivated by different things, such as butterrolls obsession with baking and research which, is just a personal life goal from what we know and isnt an influence of his past in the same way affogatos is, is a stark contrast to affos desire to have power over others and also to live rich and comfortably due to his harsh backgorund. This disparage in their relationship could potentially cause tension between them as their life goals are completely centered around themselves, which does not leave much space to let your partner be apart of it as someone you and not just someone going along with whatever you do. Otherwise, this difference could possibly allow them to become more open minded to other ways of thinking? But that is just a generalization of what differences can do in a relationship. Infact i should probably ads to my intro explaining what these categories even mean, as it may not be obvious....

DYNAMIC

The main problem i see is them just disregarding eachother as people, specifically from butterroll, due to his apathetic nature which im sure affo would hate especially as he clearly cares for the things that he loves, so in a relationship where one party is clearly trying to form SOME sort of bond, the other would be quick to shoot it down, not even on purpose id assume although i wouldnt be surprised if it was purposeful knowing butterroll. But moving on as i like to keep these relationships non toxic (since i assume yall want your ship to actually like eachother). One way these cookies could overcome their differences i believe is just catering to eachother equally, similar to a more transactional relationship, which is a relationship type i think theyd both love due to its formality and little leeway to deviate in structure. E.g butterroll could gift living failures too affogato to be used as his servants, and affogato could.... be emotional support, i guess, either way im sure butterroll would enjoy affos present if theyre in a relationship. Idk butterroll is just such a one note character i dont see him wanting much of anything outside of his work. If you have any ideas for their dynamic as a partnership be sure too tell me, i could possibly make a follow up going more in depth into what theyd actually do or give to eachother. Although, there is nothing wrong with a one-sided relationship and a charcater simply taking on the role of a "giver" because theyre bored or something along the lines of that, perhaps butterroll began dating affo so he had something to actually do when hes not working (assuming he ever stops working)

CONCLUSION

Im not going to be biased because i was going to possibly ship this but i AM going to biased because it includes a sociopathic character, who are always interesting when put in relationships personally i rate this ship a 8/10!!!! Affogato is also one of my fav characters so theres no way this was getting under a six, i mean id give this ship a 10 if i didnt worry about relying on both my analysis and opinions to rate things, hehehe.

Do you like this ship?

I saw this template and wanted to try it :D

Btw this is just my opinion and it’s completely fine to not agree! (Unless you like illegal ships, if you do please DNI!!)
