I decided to do a bit of a wrap up of this crazy crazy year we have managed to get through, each day for the rest of the year will go over some of my show’s and ship’s from throughout the year.
Now for the ships of the year, it was a big year for many show’s and many of my ships either flew high, or crashed and burnt, which I guess is quite fitting for 2020.
Brightwell:these two are two people who have and are, going through a lot of shit, they both have some issues, and they both see that in each other, but somehow, they are honest with each other. I don’t expect this ship to get together anytime soon, not with the amount of issues they both need to work through, but I just hope that they continue on their path. There is a real life kind of side to their relationship you don’t see in a lot of these types of shows, they were apprehensive of each other initially, they didn’t exactly immediately trust or befriend each other, but Malcom did show his truths to her pretty early on, and she accepted his past but not his reckless behaviour, they snapped at each other when the other pushed, and confided as well, both have trust issues, but both made an effort with each other in that regard, they both made an effort to look out for each other too, Dani helped when he asked, which made him more willing to ask, and back his idea’s, but kept him in check when the request wasn’t right (background on Eve). And even when they were mad at one another for whatever reasons, they were learning to talk it out, and to forgive each other. I could go on about these two for days, but I will end with I am very much looking forward to seeing where they go with them.
Dousy:this entire ship was 11 episodes in total, and yet it was so well spaced and written. I have said it so many times, but AOS was a show I watched so casually, but within only a couple episodes of these two meeting, I was gif’ing and writing more than I do for shows and ships I’ve been invested in for years. I was optimistically hopeful for them seeing as it was the last season, but I still wasn’t going to believe they would even get together, or that they would both survive, until I had seen the last episode, and even now I am still slightly concerned that somehow their relationship will be ruined in another marvel show, because this ship was almost too good to be true. From the barn scene, to Daniel willing to follow Daisy into space even after she admitted it was unlikely to work, to him willing to stay behind for the team to complete their mission, everything about it was perfect. I was also so blown away from the feedback that I got from the fic’s I wrote for this ship, I still hope to go back and finish them one day, and maybe write a few more!
Miggy:other than the VISA/fake marriage storyline that I wasn’t a fan of to begin with, and even less of a fan of how it panned out, the two have grown throughout season two and the start of season three. I feel like they are starting to realise that there might be something there between them, and while both have to work out what that means for them both individually, I do feel something has shifted between them. I do think that they were a bit closer before the VISA stuff, and that they are slowly getting back to where they would have been without the potential marriage stuff, and that regardless, they both still have some stuff to work out, but so far, their relationship – professionally and personally – has been growing steadily and I expect it to be moved along quite well throughout the season we have just started, unless they decide to try and drag it out more. I also think that the people closest to them are starting to be more switched on about them, or at least they are starting to sense a change of sorts between them, which will be interesting to watch.
Honourable mentions go to; Deckerstar – from Chloe realising it wasn’t Lucifer, to them learning to actually communicate with each other, they were incredible, Jake & Amy – I just love these two, enough said, Shangie – this season sort of feels like a couple steps back, but hopefully might start to go forward soon enough, Olicity – a ship that started around a guest star role, it was an end of an era with these two, and their daughter was so well cast, I would have preferred a happy ever after for them, but these will go down as an OTP for the ages, Rapata – I shipped these two from the beginning, and felt it was a massive let down, they didn’t need to kill him off, the whole team deserved the happy ending, still bitter over this, and lastly, Bellarke – ignoring the horrible ending, for the ship and the show, this ship meant so much to me over the years, and couldn’t go unmentioned.
Lastly, tomorrow for the last day of the year, will be an overall recap.
