The best ships should have a Taylor Swift song, an untranslatable word, a flower, and a color
I said I haven’t tested it out but I guess I will have to now and I suppose I’ll choose Kris/Cooper because 1) I haven’t seen them get nearly enough love and 2) I think half of Taylor’s discography fits them so it’s really an unfair advantage
Taylor Swift Song: Dancing With Our Hands Tied
This song quite literally was made for them. It’s about that hesitation of letting someone in, of revealing to the world that you love someone, not because you’re ashamed, but because you feel like your life is far too tumultuous and you want to protect them from it. Cooper is initially so scared to love Kris in public, and he feels like he’s stuck in a situation where their relationship can never progress. That’s not true, of course, but it is how he feels.
Standout lyrics:
I, I loved you in secret
And darling, you had turned my bed into a sacred oasis; People started talking, putting us through our paces
Like, c'mon
Untranslatable Word: Geborgenheit
I had to choose a German one lol and this one means love and trust and all things good that Cooper and Kris find with each other. Especially with the backdrop of everything happening with Simon, Kris is Cooper’s source of comfort every time. There’s never any indication of wavering love, or trust, or faith in one another, just fear of what might happen.
Flower: Bleeding Heart
Not just because it’s gorgeous and Cooper and Kris are gorgeous but because the imagery is too perfect. The heart with just a little droplet coming out of it is exactly how I imagine Cooper and Kris in the early stages of their relationship, with just a little drop of hesitation, and then that drop transforms into their love for each other, so outpouring that it cannot be contained within their own hearts.
Color: Seafoam Green
No good reason for this except for the fact that it’s a soothing, comforting color and I think that’s what Cooper and Kris are to each other
