As much as I love shipping and romance. It gets suuuper fucking BORING when a tag is all about shipping.

First it was the loki series with those god awful ships, mobius and loki or fucking sylvie and loki and no one actually talking about the show, but which person should get loki or not (Spoiler; Neither, they both suck.)

Now it's the planet of the apes movie??? Weirdly enough. Like..okay. sure, I get it but did no one get anything else from that movie 😶 nothing at all besides shipping? Noa was more focused on saving his clan than tryna date a human. (Who almost drowned his family mind you.) Like I'm alll for exploring a Human and ape thing but not THEM cuz that wasn't what was should've been important, it was just a stepping stone in the right direction. But to each their own.

It's just. Fascinating fr

People who really like shuake also seem to write themselves into a corner wrt Akechi and his relationship to Akiras team. Contrary to popular belief, the team, including Haru, does not hate Akechi. At worst, they tolerate him and deal with his attitude. Hes a good teammate and respectable fighter and the team recognizes that at the end of the day, he was a teenager who was manipulated and abused by a man who saw him as disposable. Just about every thief understands this intimately. They have the same mindset wrt adults who take advantage of the people beneath them. Under different circumstances they wouldve been friends. And if u approach it from that angle, it becomes less about Akechi being the sole person who ‘gets’ Akira, and more about the thieves being the only people in the world who ‘get’ Akechi.

When you expand your thoughts to include the thieves as members of his Team and not roadblocks that get in the way of your ideal shipping dynamic, you allow urself to give Akechi and Akira more depth and nuance to their own relationship.

Akira and Akechi are wildcards; both of them struggle with the face they choose to display to the world. Its the first time Akira interacts with someone who is, at a literal, technical level, his ‘equal’. But Akechi is one of many firsts for Akira yeah? Every thief has their bond with Akira thats completely unique and personal. Akechi will never be the person who witnesses Akiras Awakening, hes never the person who watches Akira have his restless nights alone in the attic, and hes never the person who realizes in real time that the teenager hes housing is just Some Kid, not the delinquent hes been warned about. Hes not Ann or Yusuke, or any of the thieves; he doesnt have the time or experience that they have with Akira, and I think its interesting to explore that part of their relationship, shippy or not.

Akechi is someone who is incredibly lonely and self depreciating despite his cockiness and attitude. He has no positive bonds to speak of save for his connection with Sae. To have him see a team that works together and cares for each other, how do you think he would feel? Out of place? Inferior in some way? Angry about how hes been alone for so long in this single minded quest for revenge? Wouldnt that be a point of struggle between the two of them? I think what makes shuake good for me is knowing that Akechi needs alot of time to heal, and the thieves would want to help with that process. They do it bc they care, bc Akira cares, and bc they trust Akiras opinion (and he trusts theirs in return); if Akira feels like Akechi is someone who can be trusted Now after everything thats happened, then the thieves would do their best to help. And how would Akechi feel about that? Angry about the show of pity? That even now, he has no real say in what happens to him? Or begrudgingly grateful that they are cordial with him? Because they do care, he KNOWS they care, they care TOO MUCH actually; but the one thing he values over brawn and wits is honesty- fighting for what you believe in without having to use soft words to justify it.

sorry to talk about my silly selfship on dash but I think me having an actual relationship with touya would be the most difficult thing ever before it actually turns into a relationship. It starts out fine, just casual talking despite how mean he can be (I have densest person alive syndrome so I probably wouldn’t even realize) but as feelings progress i would get more attached and then he would probably pull away because he’s scared of the attachment, he doesn’t understand what he feels and lashes out and pushes away because of it then i’d push away because he’s pushing away but i’d cry and wail over it because I don’t want to push away but i’d feel like i’d have to and it would all blow up in a weird and mutually obsessive breakdown because dabi keeps trying to show up even though he’d been pushing away from anything more but now im pushing away and we’re both upset over it and then we’d have to have a long talk afterwards and I think it would turn out ok, I would just have to hound him to communicate more and we’d both probably have each other on the shortest leashes possible

You know? I was having trouble figuring out how Poppy and Psycho would have met officially at least, not just passing by each other on the road.

But I now realize I was wasting time, when this perfection was right here all along.
