King/Collector for ask game?:3

Ship it / Don’t ship it.

I accidentally wrote a lot so uh. Sorry.

(I love them as a platonic duo, though!! Someday I will write a whole ass post talking about their dynamic, it’s so interesting to me.)

Why Don’t You Ship It?

They have very few screen time together, for starters. The dynamic they have now is unhealthy, and the one I think they will have in the future just Does Not give romance vibes. These two characters are unshippable with anyone ever to me,

Plus, while the Collector is very clearly meant to be a young child, they still knew King’s dad while King was an Egg, so until we get more info on that I’m willing to wait. Also the whole Grand Huntsman of Titans thing,,,,yah until we get more info on what actually happened (I don’t think what we got in edge of the world is entirely false, just that it’s not the full context of the situation. ) I’m iffy on shipping these two.

What would have made you like it?

I still wouldn’t ship it because, again, I just don’t see them as the type of characters it do the romance thing Ever. However, post collector redemption arc, some time to heal and process, and clarification on the stuff I mentioned in the second paragraph would make it way nicer me thinks.

Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say?

I love these two’s overall dynamic so much I’m so mentally ill about them dear god. I want to post an analysis about their relationship (canon and potential) someday, but that day is not today bc head ache.

As a ship, I think they’re the only ship these two characters can have with anyone because, well. For starters, both of them are, even though they’re thousand(s) of years old, still mentally and physically younger than the entire cast due to their species.

And as both “Titans” and “whatever the heck star kiddo is” are species that have a life span of thousands upon thousands of years, they likely wouldn’t outgrow the other, keeping the ship Legal 👍 and also having them be each other’s company after the main cast dies. King really needs someone he can be with after he inevitably loses his family and, judging by their own loneliness, so does The Collector.
