Talk:Sophie and Fitz/@comment-37879183-20190207222101/@comment-37887683-20190208011947

Sophie did not share her secrets because Fitz is cute. In her mind Fitz is cute. She ends up sharing her secrets with him. They are unrelated. She shared her secrets with him because she trusts him.

Sure, Sophie and Fitz have to share secrets to be cognates, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't have shared secrets with eachother anyway. Plus they both seem to want to be cognates so that's not a problem.

The reason Sophie and Keefe are a good team is because initially Sophie needed support coming to the Lost cities. Both Keefe and Fitz gave it to her. Then Keefe's life starts falling apart and Sophie feels obligated to fix it so she helps him out. He ends up telling her how he's been verbally abused by his horrible parents. I wouldn't call that bonding over sharing secrets.

They did trust excercises so that they could become cognates.

Point is: DOES IT EVEN REALLY MATTER?!?!?! Sophie and Fitz have developed the trust needed for a healthy relationship, which they now have, and if either of them suggested that they didn't want to be cognates, they wouldn't have to. Simple.
