Talk:Keefe and Sophie/@comment-35644541-20180416231023/@comment-98.144.143.66-20180417021329

Well, when I changed to Sokeefe, this was what persuaded me:

1. Keefe and Sophie have a very deep bond. It goes beyond being just a crush. They have stood by each other through thick and thin (and yes, I know it sounds cheesy, but it's true!) Like when Keefe found out his mom was evil, Sophie was there for him. And when Sophie was feeling very guilty about Alden, Keefe was there for her. They have also had ups and downs, (like when Keefe joined the Neverseen) which has made their relationship even stronger.

2. They trust each other a lot. Yes, Sophie and Fitz do too, and yes, there's that whole Cognate thing, but Sophie and Keefe built their trust without any of the Cognate sessions or exercises that Sophie and Fitz had. Plus, Cognates don't HAVE to be in love/in a relationship. If they are truly friends, they should be fine with one dating the other. Also, often, good friends have an even greater bond than crushes. So them not dating could strengthen their Cognate abilities even more!

3. So many people ship them/see them as a cute couple. Ro, Grady, Sandor, Edaline, Mr. Forkle, Keefe's dad, and a bunch more!

4. They compliment each other's personalities really well. Sophie is more serious while Keefe is more easy-going. But, they have similarities that make them pretty compatible. Like how they are both very determined, and won't give up.

5. They do a lot for each other. Especially Keefe. He risks his life for Sophie, goes undercover for her, and tries his absolute hardest to make her feel better. Sophie helps Keefe cope with anger, confusion, and guilt. She is the one thing that keeps him from breaking or becoming evil.

Overall, I ship Sokeefe because they seem so good together; like they're made for each other. Their relationship has developed the most. But what I think makes me ship Sokeefe so hard, is that they are also really really really close friends who care for each other a lot (more than they even know, I think...)
