Okay you guys so my friend finally confessed to shipping sofitz today and I ship sokeefe. It’s fine, except for I just feel like sofitz is kind of.... messed up. It’s my opinion, and obviously I’m not going to convince anyone who ships it because you interpreted the books differently. But this was how I saw it, and here are my issues with fitzphie...

Sophie doesn’t trust fitz. She goes out of her way to avoid him when she has a secret she doesn’t think he can handle. That’s not a healthy relationship. You have to trust anyone you want to be with.

Fitz’s anger. Everyone gets mad, and I understand that, but fitz doesn’t listen to anyone. The one time he does try to be calm about the matchmaking, he sounds kind of... passive aggressive.

Fitz is overly possessive. He makes Sophie feel bad for things like hanging out with a friend and for doing little things like that, although he does get better by the end of Legacy, so this point doesn’t really count I guess because he’s changed.

Sophie only likes him for his looks and the things he’s done in the past. She has a crush on the guy who brought her to the Elvin world, not the guy she’s dating in Legacy. She never once thinks anything positive about Fitz’s personality except for that his gifts were sweet and he’s helpful. Most of what she sees in him is that he brought her to the elves, is hot, and... not that much else. I’m sure I’m forgetting some, because Fitz DOES have good qualities. But mostly, she still has a crush on the guy she knew two years ago, not who he is now.

Last but not least... Fitzphie was almost an arranged marriage. It’s weird to say... but Alden TOTALLY meddled for no good reason. (OKAY THIS LAST ONE IS BIASED BECAUSE I LOVE KEEFE I ADMIT IT) but still. It’s kind of weird.

Those are just the reasons I believe sophitz is kind of messed up. It’s not fitz’s fault or sophie’s Both of them are great characters and I love them, but when they were in a relationship I just don’t think it works.

Just my opinion:)
