Something that confuses me a little is the idea that because Ted and Rebecca don't get together before he goes back to Kansas, their connection doesn't amount to anything or have an explainable meaning

(I don't need a bunch of notes explaining it to me, it's just not something that makes sense to me 😬)

Because...when you interact with someone you're that connected to, it feels extremely good

It feels good whether or not you're fucking, it feels good whether or not you've been able to articulate what it means yet, it feels good even if the status of your relationship to that person changes over time

And you can tell from Ted and Rebecca's interactions that they feel extremely good when they are in the same place. When you're that connected to someone you can tell that you are! And it feels fucking incredible, and experiencing those sensations is valuable and life-improving

Their ending (their 3x12 ending, which is neither the end of their lives nor the end of their relationship) isn't meaningless; it's sad

THIS IS THE STYDIA POSITIVITY PROJECT 2017!  Are you fuming about the lack of Stydia in 6b? Are you confused because it seems Stiles Stilinski is still with the Wild Hunt as he has barely been mentioned? Are you still trying to wrap your head around the fact that Lydia Martin was shot and Stiles Stilinski was not mentioned once? Are you just all around all types of fed up and need some positivity from other Stydia shippers in your life? Then, look no further! The Stydia Positivity Project is just what you have been looking for!

WHAT IS IT EXACTLY? The Stydia Positivity Project is simply that, Stydia shippers spreading positivity to one another by giving them a positivity partner that they will send anonymous asks to throughout the week. The project will culminate in giving your positivity partner a gift of some kind (gifset, fic, graphic, playlist, etc). Doesn’t getting an anonymous message from someone who loves Stydia just as much as you and screaming about how great they are and how much you’ve loved them sound INCREDIBLE right about now???

HOW DOES IT WORK? Complete the survey below (see: I’M SOLD- HOW DO I SIGN UP?)! by 6PM EST on Friday, September 15.  We will assing you your positivity partner on Saturday, September 16. The positivity project will run from Sunday, September 17th to Sunday, September 24th - the day of the Teen Wolf series finale. You will send your positivity partner anons about Stydia from Sunday the 17th to Saturday the 23rd, and on Sunday the 24th you will reveal yourself to them and present them with your gift!

WHAT DO I SAY TO MY POSITIVITY PARTNER? Anything your heart desires, really. Scream about why you love them. Talk about your favorite headcanons. Share how you fell into the Stydia fam. We know this can be hard, so we have provided some talking points! These are just to get you talking, they are in NO way strict guidelines that you have to adhere to. And remember, you will be giving anons but you will also be getting anons so you will have multiple people to scream about your favorite banshee queen and sarcastic king with! Here are some daily talking points you can follow but again, you do not have to strictly adhere to these!

Sunday, September 17: Share how you fell in love with this great ship

Monday, September 18: Talk favorite Stydia moments (banters, that eye contact, etc)

Tuesday, September 19: Share why do you absolutely love these two together

Wednesday, September 20: Share your favorite headcanons

Thursday, September 21: Talk about your favorite Stydia parallels!

Friday, September 22: Reminisce on the times you literally screamed at the tv over these two and their slow burn...(WHO IS GONNA TELL EM THEY’RE MARRIED)

Saturday, September 23: Talk about where you see Stydia in the future

I’M SOLD- HOW DO I SIGN UP?

Reblog this post so others can see and join in on the positivity

Complete this survey by 6PM EST on Friday, September 15

Be on the lookout for your positivity partner to be assigned to you sometime on Saturday, September 16

Start sending your positivity partner happy anons screaming about how much you love Stydia! If you sign up for this, please know that you are expected to send at least one anon a day to this person. (runs from Sunday, September 17 - Saturday, September 23)

Enjoy the anons you get from your positivity partner screaming about Stydia!! (Also from September 17-23)

Prepare a post for your partner to gift to them any time on the day of the premiere aka Sunday, September 24 (This is different than usual events like this- you are not submitting to us, but instead simply posting and tagging your partner in it any time on that day! No deadlines besides that - you can make it early and have it in your drafts/queue, or make something as you get to know your partner throughout the week!)

[PLEASE READ] This is a weeklong commitment that requires you to send an anon daily for a week, so please think about your schedule before signing up. We want to make sure everyone gets a happy anon at least once a day for the entire week! If you have extra positivity to go around, please let us know on the survey as we may need people to help out and spread love to multiple blogs if their positivity partner doesn’t send them something every day!

Please be sure to tag your gifts with #stydiapositivityproject in the first 5 tags so we can see it and reblog it to this page! Also, feel free to tag any of your conversations with your anonymous positivity partner with the tag too! If you do, we will be sure to see them and can reblog them here to spread the love!

HAPPY STYDIA POSITIVITY PROJECT! LOTS OF LOVE, MARIA ( @lydiamartins) & FARAH ( @slowburnotptrash)
