#heathozzy

Guys please I am literally begging is there anyone else on this planet that ships Heath and Ozzy (tns)

like I haven’t finished the show yet and I know everyone ships Heath with Daisy or Izzy or Pascal (?) (chameleon from tangled core??) (have not gotten this far into the show) but PLEASE tell me someone else sees it

it can’t just be me right??? It’s like the best enemies to lovers and it would work so well and make so much sense because let’s be honest Richelle and Ozzy doesn’t really make sense, he was like obsessed with her for years and he is her last resort. I am not above getting down on my knees and begging for any form of content with these two (not even canon, I have read the same 5 fics 57 times)

they just make so much sense, I’m begging someone see it 😭😭😭

for a show where basically every single character has gotten together it is criminal to not even toy with the idea of these two getting together

Like imagine a scene where they’re left alone together and they get in a fight about whatever and they’re both head over heels (because let’s be honest you don’t need to be that close to someone’s lips to insult them) and they’re both think the other hates them and they just want to clear the air but they’re too scared to be friends because they think the other doesn’t like them and it’s easier to hate each other. Finally they’re kinda forced to talk and then something happens and they kiss but they’re both scared cuz like ya know you’ve hated this guy for years and suddenly you’re kissing him and it’s happening with a guy and everyone know you can barely stand each other and they never want to talk about it again but they’re too scared know they have to so it spirals on over a few episodes and by the end it’s super cute and like they’ve finally put their fighting aside and realise oh wait he doesn’t actually hate me.

Or like imagine them both telling Izzy because they’re both pretty close to them and they’re stuck in the middle of these two hopelessly simping and is there like “sooooo you could tell him…. think it would go pretty well for you” (that is almost a direct quote of me doing the exact same thing with two of my friends (I was right)) and they’re both here so incredibly hopeless until Izzy just locks them in a closet together or whatever because symbolism or smth (idk im tired I just need to try and find other Hozzy fans because the incredibly small number is driving me mildly crazy) and then things happen.

Or or or or or like a really emotional coming out scene between Izzy and Ozzy where they’re both scared and they’re comforting each other and it gets a bit more into teasing territory and eventually it comes out that Ozzy likes Heath and Izzy goes to ask if he’s into guys (without Ozzys knowledge of course) and he’s like “wait… did you not know I’m gay…?” Or something along those lines and then Heath is confused for a while because why is Izzy asking him if he’s into guys and theyre does a very bad job at covering it up but he’s freaking out because maybe they figured out he liked Ozzy so it’s more of a funny thing when they both realise rather than being emotional.

I’m basically losing the plot at this point but nothing like sleep deprivation to make me rant about a gays

like Heath confronts Ozzy about how creepy he is around Richelle and it turns into him just grilling him and being like “leave the poor girl alone she’s obviously not into you” and he’s like yelling at him by this point saying that if he does actually like her he’d respect her choice and he’s there like “I don’t.” And it’s kind of just like internalised homophobia and he doesn’t want to accept that he likes guys and Heath is there just comforting him and reminding him that the studio is basically his family and that they wouldn’t care but he’s still scared as hell so Heath kinda starts to talk about his own experiences and Ozzys there like wait what?? And he’s like basically everyone I know outside the studio knows, I don’t really care about it getting out, it just never really got bought up. And nothing happens for a while until at some point Ozzy confesses (but like a while later, like not that episode or whatever) (also yes I am imagining this in show format because that is all my brain can handle at this current moment in time)

also very different path you could go down but Heaths shitting ex pulls a Ben from Heartstopper and is like following him around and finally ya know that scene in the first book where he has him pinned against a wall and trying to kiss him and talking to him in a really condescending way and Ozzy walks in and tries to pull him off and fight him and gets absolutely destroyed because this is an actual person outside the studio and punches him instead of dance battle, but basically he just completely loses it on Ozzy and Heath is just trying to get him to stop until through all the noise the rest of A-troupe and Nick walk in and kinda make sure everyone’s okay and get him out but Heath is still kinda a wreck because he hadn’t told him where he dances so he’d have to have been stalking him and Ozzy is in a lot of pain but basically tells everyone to leave and go to studio 1 or smth so he’d can talk to Heath and find out what’s going on and the entire explanation happens and Ozzys super protective and the scene itself isn’t inherently romantic but maybe a half season/season later when they’ve kinda become closer Heath wants to ask Ozzy out but he’s still scared and Ozzy really doesn’t want to become what that guy was so they take things pretty slowly and actually manage to keep it a secret and slowly people do find out but it’s mostly on their own terms. Did I just shamelessly rip off Heartstopper? Yes. Does it fit the shows tone? No, not at all. Will I continue to mentally write fanfic for it? 100%

Anyways, any Heath x Ozzy shippers, please add to this, please continue my delusions and if you’ve found any good fics please comment them.

(Rivalry by lastbreathskywaed on Ao3 and Kisses in the closet by ausfly (also ao3) are really good imo if you were looking for any)

(The ones I’m adding are exclusively fanon btw. So, ones like Westmily and Rishad, who were hinted at but never got together, won’t be here.)

Season 1:

Remove: Micheldon

I took so long to watch season 1 again just because of these two. Their relationship was so back and forth, and almost all their conversations were variations of the same thing. Doesn’t help they broke-up in the end in less than half a season. (Ignoring the poor choice to bring them back in season 10.)

Add: Westaniel

Idk how the writers/directors expected anyone to watch their scenes in 1x06 and think they’re just platonic.  The way they talked and their body language was so flirty and they could’ve easily done a relationship plot after that episode.

Season 2:

Remove: Jiley

Who’s bright idea was it make their first conflict as a couple a cheating plot, and also have scenes before that of them not really understanding each-other, just for them to get back together in the end? This plot went on almost the entire season and ruined both of their characters. (Which I especially hated for Riley since she was one of my favs in season 1.) They should’ve just had them realise they were better when they were just friends and have Jiley end there.

Add: Gisanda

Despite us having the Amanda, Heath and Ariana traitor plots, none of the characters were ever dating someone when they did it. And the angst of Giselle finding out her girlfriend was a spy the whole time could’ve been such a good plot. They could’ve had the viewers wondering if they’d ever get back together, and Giselle thinking the whole relationship was a lie!

Season 3:

Remove: Noabi

Was sweet enough for a “first crush” situation, but it never went anywhere, so…(Also, I would’ve rathered more of Noah’s screentime been used for his plot about feeling like an outsider anyway.)

Add: Rella

The opportunity for sapphic Riley was right in our faces! The plot could’ve happened the exact same, but this time Riley realises she’s “having more fun with Ella than James” because she has feelings for her. (Also has the added bonus of getting rid of Jiley if we can’t do it in season 2.)

Season 4:

Remove: Ralfie

I don’t even care if this would cause Jiley to still be together. (They sadly did despite everything that happened anyway.) We should not have had to deal with another cheating plot involving this ship! Either give Riley an actual plot not surrounding romance or maybe don’t make an OG character the protagonist for the season that was mean to be the start of Gen 2!

Add: Henoah

As much as I like the concept of Nomanda, the canon version of them is just…no. (Meaning they’re also getting removed ig.)  So instead, Noah has just started to not be as hard on and accept himself. New boy comes to the studio and makes him start questioning things. There! He get’s a plot about his sexuality, (which his season 3 one always felt like a code for), and not an OOC one about an injury.

Season 5:

Remove: Noacquie

If Jiley wasn’t a thing, I’d be giving these two the crown for most toxic couple! None of the episodes about them this season were interesting, they made Henry annoying for whatever reason, and Jacquie made me want to bash a head on my wall anytime she started a fight over nothing!

Add: Richola

Okay, this would be just as toxic as Noacquie. But in this case it would more-so be about Lola, who wouldn’t have her feelings reciprocated and would learn to walk away from a toxic crush/relationship. (Which ig Noacquie could’ve taught us, but they didn’t go down that route.)

Season 6:

Remove: Tymy

I love Hamy as a ship, but I could not find myself to care about the drama they had. It was unneeded and we could’ve just gotten them as the healthy couple they were for all of season 6, rather than having to wait till season 7. They could still have Ty as a character but just keep him away from Amy.

Add: Michemily

Do I even need to explain? (Also Michelle would buy the studio with Emily in this case.)

Season 7:

Remove: Pinn

You’d think the writers would’ve learned at this point that nobody cares about/likes cheating storylines at this point.

Add: Heathozzy

We’ve all seen the tension they had. They could’ve easily had Ozzy’s plot be about him finally getting with someone that likes him back. Rather than just backpedalling all his development from season 6.

Season 8:

Remove: Richozzy

Idc about the “development” the show kept insisting they had this season. How about we don’t have these two get together the very same season that Ozzy even starts treating Richelle like a decent person! (Also she should’ve gotten with Shad.)

Add: Pamy

Piper and Finn break up because of long-distance, Piper is now gonna be living with Amu and realises her feelings for her, we all win.

Season 9:

Remove: Micheldon (again!)

I know they properly get together in season 10, but I have a different ship to remove that season. Also, they hinted at it first this season. Michelle still visits and tells Eldon to get over himself. Then she goes back to Emily on their tour and stays there! 

Add: Jetiana

We all were thinking it.

Season 10:

Remove: Haisy

Which writer thought adding in a major love plot only 3 days before filming was going to end well? Doesn’t help that Heath was practically the protagonist this season so we got sm focus on this. Haisy got their platonic goodbye in season 9, keep it that way! This ship was so forced and ruined sm characters. (Again, especially Heath.) Either bring Daisy back and instead just focus on how toxic Carly was to her, or just leave her with the goodbye she got in season 9. (Honestly, I miss the period after that first promo when I thought she’d only be back for the reunion.

Also, justice for Pascale!

Add: Michemily (again!)

Heath: Technically, this is plan P.

Lily: Plan P? Is there a plan M?

Heath: Yes, but I marry Ozzy in plan M.

Heath: ...Punch you?

Ozzy: Yes, punch me, didn’t you hear me?
