Who are two xs character who never met and probably never would meet anyway, but you think would along if they could?
I think Megan and Jesse would have been fast friends. Megan would even wanna try on one of their leather jackets and ride on their motorcycles. I also think Dyris and Katnappe would've gotten along. (I think Dyris and Gigi have beef though. No reason for thinking this, I just think they'd have funny beef)
Megan and Jesse as besties? Oh, yes, they would hit it off in an instant. Jesse would even make her an honorary Black Viper Member only to piss off Jack lol. Tbh tho I think all of the Black Vipers would ADORE Megan. For one, she’s cute. The second reason could be that she has had sinister ideas for a 5-year-old lol. They would see potential in her. Besides, she’s fun to hang out with and they could’ve developed older sisters – younger sis relationship. If it weren’t for Megan’s parents the Black Vipers could kidnap her (illegal adoption my fav trope). As for Jesse-Megan's friendship, I bet their favorite activity includes gossiping about Clay and Jack. I even see a mental image of girls sharing the most embarrassing moments of their bro/cousin in front of them. Poor cowboy and evil boy genius kindly ask them to stop, but Megan and Jesse are not even close to the merciful young ladies.
And I agree with anon Dyris and Gigi could have some beef going on simply because of… the conflict of interest. In the episodes featuring these two, it was revealed that
1. Dyris’ plan for world conquer includes covering the whole planet with water
2. while Gigi’s vision of Earth is to expand his plant kingdom and turn all people into plants.
I presume they would argue a lot simply because if one of them succeded – it means the failure of the other one. If Dyris’ plan comes to fruition – Gigi COULD change humans into plants BUT as we know not all the plants like humidity. (and I think Gigi would kinda… die too? Because plants also need soil and Dyris will make sure there would be no land whatsoever?)
Likewise with the opposite situation. If the Heylin Seed’s plans ever came to fruition, it would be impossible for Dyris to retrieve the Lunar Locket and make her dreams of an ever-ending ocean possible.
So, yeah, I also see them as enemies even. Unless they made an alliance in which half of the planet could be Dyris’ Ocean Kingdom and the other – Gigi’s jungle with plant-people society. But it doesn’t seem like a good option for either of them bc they’re too greedy for any compromise, at least in my mind.
Dyris and Katnappe, tho – damn you’re right. They have similar personalities – always trying to get what they want. Once they realize they have a lot in common – they could team up. However, let’s not forget Dyris is a predator and I am more than certain she would double-cross Ashley (du-uh she would literally take advantage of anybody regardless of her likes or dislikes. It’s canon). And Ashley is smart enough not to get involved with ‘the water business’. What I’m trying to say, is their friendship would work out only as evil lady acquaintances. When push comes to shove – it’s either Dyris who tricks Ashley to do her bidding
- or Ashley, who dumps Dyris in the last moment (hopefully before the disaster that requires heroes’ help to undo this)
As we know, Ashley has a tendency to leave her evil partners if she no longer likes the job. I see her telling Dyris something along the lines: ‘too much water? it’s not my thing. I hoped for some treasure chests with gold but if you’re not going to provide I’m outta here’. Additionally, I’m not rejecting the idea of Dyris trying to eat Ashley even if she lived up to her end of the deal. There are no friendships on the heylin side.
On the other hand, there are two villains whose team-up would work out. Sibini and Hannibal Roy Bean. They’re both mind-control masters and they have some past with Chase. And I think if Sibini was ever freed from the wu, they wouldn’t mind helping Hannibal in his revenge against Chase. It would be very interesting if Sibini possessed Omi and made him fight Chase. (if someone reading this wants to write a fanfic based on that, give it a shot please!)
______________ ___________________
As always, I leave quite long commentaries, so maybe I’ll move on to the other brotps that in my opinion, would work out.
1. I place my bets on Megan and Le Mime. (yes I love Megan. She deserves to interact with EVERYONE) I can see Le Mime taking to Megan. He would treat her like a princess. He would be the only XS character to truly enjoy her tea parties and take joy from that. Please, consider Le Mime giving Megan invisible balloons and flowers bc that’s damn wholesome. Another bedrock of their friendship would be founded upon pranking Jack tbh. Let’s take as example that situation in which Le Mime gives Megan these ballons, as I suggested earlier.
Jack: Yo, where’s my cousin? Her parents want to leave in an hour.
Le Mime: (points at the ceiling with a smug grin)
Jack, internally screaming: Megan what the hell are you doing up there!?
Megan: I’m flying! You didn’t want to give me your Heli-pack so Mr. Mime helped me to fly!
Jack: (sigh) Ok, whatever. Just come down, will ya?
Megan: Nope! (flies further away in the deeper parts of Jack’s lab)
Jack: Le Mime, please I beg you. I won’t vaporate mimes, I swear! Just bring her to me! She’ll listen to you!
Le Mime: (mimics he wants some payment in form of 2 slices of cake)
Jack: FINE! JUST HURRY UP!
Le Mime: (uses an invisible bow and shoots 3 arrows so the balloons could burst. Then he catches Megan in his arms)
Megan: aaaw. It’s over already? :(
Jack: (takes his cousin away from Mime’s grasp) You. You are a bad influence.
Le Mime: (shrugs, content of the accusation) :) (waves Megan goodbye)
And that’s one of the reasons it’s never peaceful at Spicer Manor lol. All it takes is Megan’s simple request: hey you wanna re-paint my stupid cousin’s robots? And Le Mime’s already on board haha
2. My second suggestion for a nice friendship is the Guardian of the treasure of the Blind Swordsman and the Bird of Paradise. She could be his eyes, y’all. The old man is not a fan of her singing, tho. However, he agrees she’s a great companion. Thanks to her he doesn’t feel as lonely as he used to.
3. Tbh I’m totally in favor of Jack’s creations to find some friends outside Jack’s basement. And I thought – why can’t they be besties with monks’ U-bots from Mr. Tohomiko? Meh, I know it’s impossible coz Jack is an enemy and in consequence, his robots are technically enemies too but I love some unexpected friendships, ok?
4. It’s already people’s favorite but Leafy and Shimo Staff is like the cutest brotp the fandom came up with. It’s my personal favorite now too! They’re cuties. I almost want to draw them as humans someday.
5. Klofange and Chase's warriors. I can't explain why YET but there would be mutual respect between the two parties. They would share stories about their victories as huntsmen or something.
So, to wrap things up, I stan Megan as Le Mime’s little antics-helper and an additional Black Viper. I also want that old Guardian to have someone to talk to and I chose the Bird to be his friend. Dyris and Katnappe could find a common ground quite easily as long as they won’t partner up because that would mean the end of their friendship. Sibini and Bean have a lot in common. Parasite solidarity, am I right? Also let robots hang out despite the rivalry of their masters/owners, alright? And you already know I adore Leafy and Shimo – after all I put them in a boat together in that one silly drawing of mine.
These are my top unexpected XS friendships and my thoughts on how these relationships could work out (or not – if you count that commentary about Dyris and Gigi). Hope ya’ll had a nice read.
