Mosercest ofc
It's serial killer brothers, of course I ship it.
What made you ship it?
I've shipped it from the beginning? Well, that's not entirely right - back when The Ice Truck Killer was stalking Dexter, I didn't really have ship feelings about what was going on there; I was intrigued, and my feelings for that era are shippy now. And when it was revealed Rudy was the Ice Truck Killer, I was like "huh okay." about it. And then Rudy reveals he's Dexter's long lost brother and he did all of this for him, I was so on board. So it was the brother reveal that made it so shippy for me. I was in Supernatural fandom at that time, so i was like "huh. weird brothers to ship are following me" that was before I became the person that ships incest in everything.
What are your favorite things about the ship?
There's a lot that's really interesting (Brian courting Dexter, Dexter in Original Sins cleaning up Brian's bodies), but one of my favorite things is that Brian is Dexter's dark mirror. I wish he was around more because he should haunt the narrative more often.
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
I don't think, or at least, I don't want, for Dexter to be a completely amoral, codeless serial killer with Brian. Like, I do want fics where he runs off with him at the season one in some way. But I think the conflict makes it interesting, and I don't know who Dexter is without his code. And you know, I like Dexter's tethers to humanity - Deb, Rita, Harrison - and I don't want to actually get rid of all that to have Mosercest happy ending.
