to be completely fair it's you guys that started with the whole "if you ship Celeborn and Galadriel you're crazy and delusional because she hates him even in the books and if you don't think so you just hate our ship" "none really cares about c/g you guys are just antis in disguise". & The whole "shipping our ship is feminist, if you want Celeborn in the show you're just a puritan incel". So this whole "oh i Just want to have fun with shipping the girl with the fun evil guy" is lowkey uhm. Not what happened.
Tumblr media
Does this sounds familiar op? But yes it's just a matter of people being salty because their boring ship is less popular than the cool one! Or it's ok to say that the other fans are "delusional" if you sit at the table with the cool kids?
Also, you're a former Reylo, so the whole argument Is even funnier because hey i guess It wasn't funny getting called delusional over liking reylo in 2018, but now it's totally acceptable to do It with a ship you consider "boring "? What happened to fandom etiquette?
Btw im also a villain fan so idgaf about shipping being problematic or whatever. But the hypocrisy irks me, ESPECIALLY if comes from so called "for free shipping" fans. It doesn't sound very pro free shipping the general behavior this fandom had for a while.
Why is it so hard to understand that Sauron being the villain and downright evil is precisely what makes Saurondriel a fun and interesting ship to play with ?? I mean it's so amusing to see people clutching their pearls over the fact that many viewers (women mostly) find this dynamic attractive, as if the point of shipping was not often to have FUN playing dolls with fictional characters who if they existed in real life, would have no business being together. Unlike real life toxic relationships, the fictional ones are HARMLESS. Unless you can't dissociate fiction and reality and don't see that Galadriel is a fictional character, there's nothing harmful in shipping her with anyone else than her husband.
I'm not sorry to say I don't see why I should ship Galadriel with her currently dead husband, while Galadriel herself doesn't seem to give a shit about him at all (in the show). Seeing some people bemused that no more fans ship her with Celeborn as if a relationship being canon made it automatically fun to ship is a bit funny, to say the least.
I don't see any fun in imagining scenarios where they live their very normal marital life, raise their very normal kid and sometimes have dinners with their very normal family. Why don't more people ship Galadriel and Celeborn ? Because it's boring that's why. I see boring married people everyday in real life already, my own marital life was mostly boring as well (except when my ex decided it was "put you down for no reason" day.... I preferred the boring days), why the hell would I care for fictional boring married people ?
Don't get me wrong, It doesn't mean that I don't want Galadriel to have this life ! I want her to be happy, of course, but see what's great with Saurondriel is that I KNOW that it will never be a threat to Galadriel's life with Celeborn. I KNOW that he'll come back at some point, I KNOW that she'll have this peaceful marital life, and us shipping Galadriel and Sauron will never change that because it's already written.
