Sophie and keefe make amazing close friends but anything more just wouldn’t work.Fitzphie on the other hand balance each other out, they make each other better,they are better together than apart.... if Fitz get angry or upset Sophie is right there to calm him down and if Sophie is feeling anxious or scared or nervous Fitz finds a way to make her feel better. This is my opinion if you don’t like it then that’s ok you can have yours :) >>>> Ok, so you say that Fitz and Sophie are opposites, but I would honestly say they’re more similar to each other than Sophie and Keefe. Fitz is quite a calm person, and so is Sophie, while on the other hand Keefe is a carefree person while she’s a more uptight and serious person. Keefe’s always there for Sophie, and makes her feel better when ever she’s down. I’d say Keefe has done this more times than Fitz has, and honestly, just does it better, as Keefe knows exactly what to say to Sophie and what would cheer her up, because he truly knows her, and they’ve spent more intimate time with each other, sharing their broken fragile parts and secrets that they don’t trust anyone else with. You also said that whenever Fitz is angry Sophie is there to calm him down... but here’s the problem, whenever Fitz gets mad, he takes out his anger on Sophie, he gets really snarky and sharp with everyone, and I think in a long term relationship he’ll just end up snapping at her way too many times and hurting her, and that’s clearly a very unhealthy relationship. We even get proof of this in the Flashback Keefe short story when Alden tells Keefe to be there so that he can calm Fitz down if he gets too angry. And it does happen! Fitz almost starts yelling at Sophie when Keefe stops him in his tracks, and tells him to calm down before he says something he’ll regret. Keefe isn’t always gonna be there to stop Fitz from yelling at Sophie, so how can Alden be okay with his Son treating Sophie like that!? It just doesn’t make sense in the long run. Keefe never snaps at Sophie this way, he truly cares for her and every time they’ve hurt each other they’ve come out of it stronger than ever. I personally ship Sokeefe because they’ve had more development in their relationship, where things with Sophitz, just feel kind of rushed.
