Talk:Keefe and Sophie/@comment-73.213.85.208-20191007004222

I feel that Keefe deserves Sophie more. Hear me out: It’s not because Keefe has had a harder life (thought that does play into the reasoning somewhat), it’s because he respects Sophie more. Sure, Fitz is respectful of Sophie to a degree, no doubt about that. However, the little things Fitz does shows that Keefe respects her more. For instance, in NIGHTFALL, when Sophie and Keefe were talking telepathically in the first chapter, Fitz eavesdropped throughout the whole interaction. In FLASHBACK, he eavesdropped when Keefe was visiting Sophie in the healing center. He also eavesdropped when Sophie was talking with Tarina (I think that’s her bodyguard’s name), and although he claimed he was worried about her, it shows he doesn’t trust that she can take care of herself. Many people argue that Fitz is abusing his ability and cognate relationship with Sophie, and frankly, I agree. I also want to bring up the points of Fitz’s anger issues. Yes, many people say that he has only been angry in two books; that may be true, but it doesn’t matter how many times he got angry, it matters how he treated the people around him. Both times, he took his anger out on Sophie, and while yes she may have been part of the cause, she still had the best intentions. He didn’t care and disregarded the consequences of his actions. Keefe on the other hand, while he has rarely gotten angry with Sophie, the few times that he did, he took a break and regathered his thoughts before he said something he knew he’d regret. Also, not just Keefe, but others as well are better at controlling their anger. Fitz May be the shining golden boy, but his personality and behavior towards Sophie is definitely tarnished.

This is just my opinion, feel free to disagree, but I politely ask to keep the comments respectful towards one another. Thank you.
