Talk:Keefe and Sophie/@comment-2600:387:B:F:0:0:0:87-20190706205804

Just saw this on the Sophitz page. Its a shortargument, but I wanted to make a counterargument that anyone else can use if youre having a friendly (or unfriendly) debate.

I ship Sophitz because they trust each other and are compatible enough to be Cognates. They don't trust each other because they're cognates, they are Cognates because they trust one another. And they work well together, balancing each other out. Fitz always talks things out with Sophie, not making recklace moves without asking her opinions. I feel that the Sokeefe relationship would be based too much off teasing and jokes, which is okay for a teenage relationship, but not for a healthy long term relationship, especially when their life spans are infinite.

1. Sophie and Fitz trust each other, but so do her and Keefe, so thats not an argument, thats just a sinple fact. 2. It IS truly impressive that they are compatible for Congnatedom (or whatever its called), but think of Alden and Quinlin (was that his name???). Cognates can lose their trust and/or decide to go their separate ways. Additionally, Sophie trusts Keefe just as much, and knows Keefe a lot better. For example, when she was considering telling Fitz about her crush on him, she was unsure how he would act. With Keefe, she knows him so well she can anticipate his next moves, and vice versa. Also, Cognates do not indicate that Sophitz will win. Sophie and Fitz can be Cognates, and Sophie can date Keefe, as long as Fitz is okay with that. 3. They work well together? Well, the whole TEAM kind of works well together. However, in Flashback, they DID work well with the alicorns, but Fitz really wasnt supposed to be there in the first place. So I think that scene was just where the story led them to be together, but whatever. Keefe and Sophie work just as well together (in Exile, for example) without the rest of the team, so again, its not really an argument so much as a statement. 4. Fitz doesnt make reckless moves... well, reckless means doing something without thinking it theough, and Fitz does that in Exile and Flashback by losing control over his anger. So thats not really a true statement. 5. Sophie needs Keefe's humor, and if you dont believe that, reread the books (specifically Nightfall). And remember, hes not always the joking type either? He can be serious if Sophie needs it, because he would do anything for Sophie.
