You know who I really can't stand? R/Hr shippers who say that H/Hr has no evidence whatsoever. These are the people who've made this shipping war so nasty.

Do you really think so? Having checked your journal, I see which one you're pulling for (and thus have a feeling as to which sinking you're predicting), but do you honestly think that there is going to be any definitive end to the argument after this book?

Short of Couple One getting together, proclaiming that they are soulmates, getting married and binding themselves with an ancient magical ceremony that prevents them from ever parting, I can't imagine there's going to be any permanent resolution to any relationship issues in this book. Short of Character One finding out that s/he is somehow related to Character Two, I can't see the fanbase for their coupling crumbling. The sides are too deeply entrenched. I'm fully anticipating another three or more years of sniping, trolling, essay-writing, and dissecting the text down to the punctuation. And after this week, I can't say I'm looking forward to it.

Anyway, I wish you good reading and good luck: even though I find your OTP to be generally offensive (more specifically, I find the majority of its supporters that I've met to be generally offensive), I'll happily congratulate you if your prediction is accurate. But I can't expect it will be, not with another book still to come.
