Talk:Keefe and Sophie/@comment-37719459-20190202182031/@comment-37879183-20190203004709

There is, in fact, a great deal of evidence that Sophie likes Fitz for more than his looks. Although many fans argue that her picturing Fitz's eyes is a sign that she likes him for his eyes, Sophie is associating the colour teal and Fitz's eyes with Fitz. Sophie and Fitz are cognates (please read the rest of this before attacking me for using the cognates argument). As said in the books, becoming cognates is basically becoming almost one person. They share memories and secrets so that they know one another's personality like their own. They can tell when the other is lying, so they are not able to withhold information without the other knowing. Sophie knows everything about Fitz there is to know. She will not start dating him and suddenly realize that he has a trait that she really dislikes, because she knows everything about him. Even if, as some fans have claimed, Fitz has anger issues or secretly hates Keefe, Sophie knows this and she doesn't care. The same goes the other way. Fitz knows everything about Sophie and even if she only likes him for his looks, he knows this and apparently doesn't care. I haven't seen into Sophie or Fitz's minds, but they like one another and that's good enough for me. I'm not going to say that Sophie is "wrong" about who she likes, because those are her feelings, not mine, and she's the one who has insight into her own mind. I think that SoKeefe will happen during books 8 and part of 9, but I believe that Sophie and Fitz will end up together in the end.
