I haven't watched this show in years and the closest thing I had to a Craig ship was Emma/Craig (I have no idea if they even talk anymore), but I always really liked Ellie and this manifesto made a really strong case.

Though I will admit to being wtfized that it's apparently healthy? I didn't think the show runners understood that concept. I'll check out some of the fic recs. <3

Aw, I loved it, Meagan! You really put the esscense of this relationship into the perfect words for me. And it makes me realize how much i miss C/E.

I'm sad that you've all but given up on Degrassi canon, but I understand why you have and I can't blame you.

I have a lot of ships, but there aren't any that i hold as close to my heart as Crellie. So thank you for writing this...

Although I know that I won't ever truly be over this ship, in a weird way, this manifesto gave me some closure.

Aw, you did excellent! Even though my Degrassi OTP was, and forever is, Ashley/Craig, I always saw Craig/Ellie as being great too (since Emma/Craig was never going to happen, Sean/Ellie just came and went out of nowhere, and the Hot Mess That Was Cranny was just that), and I never understood why they got completely shafted.

It was reading your fanfiction that turned me into a Crellie fan. I can't help but like Cranny and Sellie more, but I always felt that you wrote Craig and Ellie better than they were on the show and that the way you wrote them made them perfect for each other. This manifesto made for a great read.

Also, are you planning on finishing Vox? That was my favorite.
