Here's a question. WHY DO I ONLY SHIP PAIRINGS THAT ARE GOING TO BREAK MY DAMN HEART?

Honestly! In almost every fandom I edge into, if I bother to follow a couple, it is always a doomed pair. Either it's obvious that their relationship isn't made to last, it's unrequited, it's doomed to end with one of them dying, or it's clear that the canon

/totally feels your pain

The worst part is that the show in question actually gives the couples enough screentime and enough chemistry to make it work, you know? And then they laughed and tell people, 'of course xx&yy is NOT GOING TO HAPPEN! Are you mad? 'insert-the-canon-couple-that-has-less-chemistry-here': They're the heart of the show! Blah blah!

AND OMG YOU SHIP RACHEL/JESSE TOO. I know he's probably playing her and is going back to Vocal Adrenaline in the future, BUT RACHEL LOOKS SO HAPPY (with the exception of this week's episode)- I mean, look at the April Episode! Even in the background, they're still so cute.

AUUUUGH. YES. I hate it when the creators get all up in the shipping drama. Avatar ESPECIALLY, since they deliberately baited Zutara fans with their shipping crack mini-episodes and in cons.

Well, I shipped Rachel/Jesse because she did look extremely happy and he was the only one not treating her like trash. But...yeah. He's probably playing her. And I hate the thought of him breaking her heart and Finn swooping in to rebound.

THIS THIS THIS. And that milisecond in 'Home', when Mercedes was imagining them as a cupcake and burger, when Rachel was talking about Fanny Price(?) or something- Jesse was listening. Interestedly. Compare that to what we saw of Finn/Rachel in ANY OTHER EPISODE. They don't work, creators! Sometimes the 'opposite attract' thing DOES NOT WORK.

And I hate the thought of him breaking her heart and Finn swooping in to rebound.

*sniffs* And the fact that the majority of the fanbrats is of the Finn/Rachel-shipping variety and it sucks to be there when they're gloating.

I still want to stab Finn in the face for telling Rachel that he'll actually have to listen to her talking now. What a stupid douchebag. He's just...this big, entitled wuss to me. I think I would rather her hook up with Puck than with Finn.

[rabidline]

I always want to stab Finn in the face almost everytime he's with Rachel. Especially with his "It's garbage!" bulshittery in response of her video. STOP BEING A DOUCHEBAG TO THE GIRL, YOU MORON.

I think I would rather her hook up with Puck than with Finn.

I'm going to go against popular fandom and not have her hook up with anyone? Boys aren't your whole world, Rachel Berry! And I'm not really big on Puck/Rachel. (The only Rachel ship I like before Jesse came is Will/Rachel, and everyone knows that the show will NEVER go down that route. Again.)

[ivy_chan]

Oh yes. Basically, if she HAD to get together with anyone, I'd have her hook up with a repentant Jesse. (Will is kind of wishy-washy.)But yeah, I'd like it if not every character's life revolved around romance.
