Talk:Keefe and Sophie/@comment-2600:1702:4030:1F80:58A1:541E:BF37:DD7D-20181203022148

So I was ranting to my mom about how Fitzphie seemed endgame after Flashback--a temporary moment of weakness I have no pride in ;) -- and she assured me that no author solves the love triangle with two books to go. (I mean, obviously right? Both the mushiness and the prolonged crush-awkwardness that comes with not knowing how to act with alleged "almost boyfriend" around other friends might kill the readers!) When I described Fitzphie vs Team Foster-Keefe, my mom also told me that Fitzphie seemed like almost every other teen's first relationship, cute, but not lasting.

And, my fellow sokeefe shippers, anyone who has the resiliance to face Flashback again and reread those Fitzphie interactions can see that this relationship is truly that: cute, but not lasting. I don't believe they have the depth needed for a long-lasting relationship. (Btw does anyone know if Sophie ever gushes about anything other than Fitz's eyes or sweetness with the gifts?) Sophie and Keefe have both comforted each other at their worsts (when Sophie broke the news about Keefe's mom possibly being dead in Neverseen, and when Keefe was with Sophie when Mr. Forkle died in Lodestar). I know Fitz and Sophie work well as Cognates, but...I feel like Keefe's emotional support for Sophie is way more important.

(Sorry, this turned kind of long)
