I'm just going to copy Fitzphie arguments to get something on here:

"I like Fitz's sweetness and I quote Edaline, "smitten"-ness. And he's always checking on Sophie and telling her that if she wants to wait, he'll be okay with that. Even if he doesn't want to wait, he is constatnly letting her know how much he cares about her and will always be there. Sometimes though, I wish Sophie could be a tiny bit more bold, even though I'd do most of what she does in situations like that–or I'd say something dumber. Like when she felt like she had to ask to hold Fitz's hand (i would have done it too), and he said she never has to ask to do that. I thought that was incredibly sweet. And one of the things that I really love about them, is how Fitz is always making Sophie feel special. Not in a way where he's trying to kiss-up to her or is constatnly like, "sophie you're so pretty and cute and wonderful and amazing". No, he does that more through his actions, which is a great thing. But he's lets her know just enough to boost her self-condifindence, which she really needs. And he does thinks she's beautiful, but his feelings for Sophie aren't shallow and they run deeper than just her appearance. And he doesn't think she should just fall for him, like a ton of girls at Foxfire do. In the Fitz Chapter in Flashback, he even made it sound like he sometimes thinks he's not good enough for her. I think that is what makes them so perfect. And wow, this was long.

"Ok- maybe this is just me, but I am STRONGLY bothered by Keefe sending Sophie "cool breezes". Like ok- I get why he did it the first time in the sparring match, but why does he ALWAYS have to do it when she's stressed. It feels creepy. To me, it's as if he's saying, "Oh no! Sophie's slightly upset! Let me go send fake emotions into her brain!" It's ok to feel things other than happy, and everyone is having a hard time, but nope, it;s just her who gets the breezes.

Also, I don't get why Sophie even allows it! When Alden's mind broke, she was freaking out so Elwin gave her a medicin that gave her fake emotions and she hated it! She was feeling emotions that weren't her own, and it's kind of like taking a sedative/drug.

I know that I am probably looking at this from a completely different perspective, but it just jumped out at me. Also please don't be offended if you disagree. I totally respect your oppinion. What do people think?

"You know what REALLY annoys me?

SoKeefe shippers saying that Sophie likes Fitz in the head and Keefe in the heart, and that the heart will win.....

Honestly.....

It's the opposite. Its Fitz in the heart and Keefe in the head.

I mean, Sophie likes Keefe, (Which I think is because Keefe is using his empath abilities to make her like him in the head, because do you think that ALL Keefe can do is make Sophie feel relaxed? (I think he's making her love him)) but listen to THIS.

When Sophie gets gloves in Lodestar, she says she can still feel that flutter in her heart. In the HEART.

But does Sophie get flutters when Keefe is around? No.

I know you are going to say she does, so here's my response.

PROVE IT >:)"

"Well it sure ain't Tam or Dex, and I feel like Fitz is

1. More grounded mentally

2.  Shows he likes her without all that teasing garbage

3. Bakes for her!

4. He is her cognate

5.  He is the first elf she met, whom she trusts the most

Those are just the top 5 reasons😀.

I'm getting kind of sick of Sokeefe shippers calling Sophitz cliche. It's not, and here's why:

I've read A LOT of romance, and I know that the most popular cliche that authors use in their book is

Red is main character

Blue is the first crush

Green is the bad boy with issues

Red is in love with Blue, but he doesn't pay attention to her. Eventually, she notices Green, a dangerous bad boy that opens up to Red and tells her that she's the only one that knows about his family issues. Then, Green starts becoming needy and they are living happily ever after.

I think Sokeefe is Red and Green. Therefore, they are cliche."

Wow^ That was hard-ish to find. But maybe it will help understand the viewpoint
