for @sharpbutsoft

bonus:

The first:

Two characters who would literally do anything for each other.

Destroy the world, break the law, betray their nation, their beliefs, everything they've stood for throughout the series…

But “they're just friends.”

And then you get called dramatic for thinking there's something more because “men can have deep friendships too.”

Sure.

Normal deep friendships where someone betrays their entire moral compass for a single person.

Totally casual (you'd do that for someone you barely know, sure…).

And then there's the second type of ship:

The characters barely speak to each other.

Sometimes they don't even like each other.

Or they were enemies.

Or they have like four scenes together in the entire series.

But there's symbolism.

Colors, planets, parallels, glances, dynamics, specific lines…

And somehow you end up surviving with edits, two-hour analyses, and fanfics at 3 a.m. The morning
