Talk:Sophie and Fitz/@comment-35320625-20181119171129/@comment-37563749-20181119200925

I COMPLETELY agree! Fitz had been looking for Sophie for 9 years and Fitz was Sophie's first tie to her true world. They are the only people who truly understand each others' pain and understand how to help. People complain that Fitz and Sophie aren't a good match because he lashes out at her too much. But they also have to remember that if Fitz doesn't stay angry, he will break, and that would break Sophie. Some people just need to yell their frustrations out, including me. I can fully understand how Fitz's emotions need to be handled because it is very similar to me. Fitz can also be gentle with Sophie. The first time we see this is when Sophie is forced to leave her family and her life with some cute boy to some world she has only seen a sliver of. That is a huge change, and when Sophie starts to break down, Fitz is right there for her. He is her rock, and she is his tape. He is there to be quiet and comfort her, and she is there to listen. People also claim that Team Foster-Keefe is better because they help each other more but honestly, their relationship is built on not letting Keefe break. What kind of healthy relationship is built on one person trying to convince the other that he isn't a horrible person that should just go and break? Keefe has feelings for Keefe because she is the first person to truly say something about his situation and try to help. She is the first person to forgive him when he left for the Neverseen. So he trusts her in a way he has never felt he could trust someone before. This tricks us, and maybe him, into thinking that he loves her. And maybe he does love her or maybe she is just his first true friend, but either way, Sophie does not love him. She loves him as one of her closest friends but nothing more. Sophie has this preconceived notion that she is ugly and worthless (because of her time with the bullies and statuses of the Forbidden Cities) so, whenever she is given a compliment, she really feels it. Keefe will give her most of these compliments as his flirtatious joking manner which fools readers into believing that Sophie has any romantic feelings toward him. The only boy that Sophie has ever truly loved and is perfect for her, is Fitz Vacker.
