Listening to wolfwren brainrot playlists while fighting some Ezrabine shippers. Nothing new.

Ezrabines on Reddit giving me headaches on this good week.

Anytime I think of this ( and cry and puke)

I remember this

Sabezra we were first and I understand that you can ship who ever you want ( even if it's toxic and...bulish) don't forget that Taylor and Tiya were Sabezra shippers way before wolfwren ever came along....don't loose hope Sabezra nation..

Edit: guys I'm sorry for this post when I wrote it I had recently had some family stuff going on and got super pissed and took it out on something stupid like thks so sorry and guys ship whoever you want cause in the end we love them both but Dave makes the final choice

[sunshinekryze]

just wanted to say something about this (i am a wolfwren shipper, but this post is from a neutral perspective)

wolfwren isn't for you? that's fine. that's absolutely fine. there is never going to be a ship that everybody agrees on. ever.

if you ship ezrabine, that's awesome, you should make fanart, fanfiction, discuss theories, have fun!

i know plenty of ezrabine shippers and most of them are lovely people :) some aren't- but this isn't a reflection of ezrabine's as a whole. same goes with wolfwren

the point is, neither wolfwren nor ezrabine shippers should be spewing hate in eachothers' tags for no reason. wolfwren shippers are valid in their opinions and deserve not to be accused of romanticising violence, being ped0philes, being straightphobic, etc.

likewise, ezrabine shippers shouldn't be accused of being homophobic, incest-shipping, etc.

NOTE: THERE ARE SOME BLATANTLY HOMOPHOBIC EZRABINE SHIPPERS OUT THERE- I'M NOT REFERRING TO THEM. THESE PEOPLE DEFINITELY DESERVE TO BE CALLED OUT ON THEIR BEHAVIOUR, BUT THIS POST IS MERELY TALKING ABOUT EZRABINE SHIPPERS WHO ARE SIMPLY ENJOYING A PAIRING THEY LIKE.

reading sabine as gay is great as long as it makes you happy! (not straightphobic)

pairing her with a guy is fine too, if that what you'd like! (not homophobic)

overall, you guys enjoy your ship and we can enjoy ours. we might not have the same opinions on ships, but we all have a common love for star wars that we should be bonding over :)

have fun shipping, just be open to the idea that your ship isn't the only way to read it. so ship what you want if it makes you happy, just don't shit on other shippers because they have a different take on star wars media.

thanks :)

EDIT: as @armoralor has pointed out, the wolfwren community certainly faces much more unnecessary hate as a queer ship, and the threats of violence and outright homophobia are certainly much more severe than simply fighting over a ship- the amount of hate a heteronormative ship faces is rarely the same as what a queer one does. (i'm aware there have been wolfwren shippers who've hated on ezrabine shippers which is unfair, though there have never been threats of genuine violence which is always unacceptable in any circumstance)

RAISE YOUR HANDS IF YOU'VE BEEN SIBLINGS-ZONED THESE PAST 2 DAYS

yeah.

[frederick2223]

wolfwren gets excited when their ship looks at each other.

SabEzra gets excited at how our ship looks at each other.

Should tell you all you need to know.

the 4 stages of a disillusioned shipper

I'm a disillusioned straight boy and this is proof 💀

I knew @longlivetheemperor was correct, and I was foolish not to realize, and now my hatred and contempt for wolfwren-shipper has only been fueled.

Rise up Church of Ezrabine! The Ahsoka show finale is upon us. Let us give thanks for the gifts we have received.

We are thankful for the witty banter,

the admiring glances,

the beautiful reunion hug,

the “kiss scene” camera angle to show the Noti’s reactions,

the flirtatious pod ride,

the dynamic battle couple,

and now a scene of them riding double on a howler.

Riding double is a classic romance trope.

Rejoice, Sabezra shippers. These scenes have given us hope in a fandom full of antis.

I have spoken.

[consider-da-lilies]

Being an OG Sabezra/Ezrabine shipper is a… fascinating experience rn. The new fans are rising up and the old hate/anti alongside with them.

Newbies, we welcome you with open arms and warm hearts! 💙💜🧡 Welcome to the craze.

For now, I’m just happy they’re back together. Now time will tell.

I speaking out….

As a Starwars Fan, CloneWars Rebels fan and also loyal Sabezra/Ezrabine Shipper..

I tried to be more respectful…but I just need this to get off my chest .

I am sick and tired of shipwars, & pressing peoples buttons against Sabezra/Ezrabine…

For the past 9 years that I’ve been around from Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and Tumblr. I seen a bunch of anti Sabezra /Ezrabine shippers been hating on Ezrabine/Sabezra throughout 9 years with passion.

They make it the same old claim call “siblings,”Friendzone” friendships gay, lesbian,, over and over blah blah blah … there’s a lot of people that they don’t want to see Sabezra/Ezrabine… throughout 4 seasons of Rebels I saw the comments from social media, making their claims when they shipped about.

even after rebels Season 4 I saw those anti-Ezrabine shippers were so celebrated on those comments against Sabezra/Ezrabine ship.

those people who ship Sabine to someone else to brush Ezra off.

Sabine & Kestu Rebels Season 2

Sabine & Wedge Season 3

And Now Shinn & Sabine in Ahsoka..

I don’t understand why in the fuck, they hate it Sabezra/Ezrabine so much, especially they hate it on Ezra bridger. They always come out here to have the nerve for that.

I remember the early 2 seasons of rebels they been making fun of Ezra & Ezrabine/Sabezra shippers.

Sabine treated Ezra, like a nobody for being a jerk to ignoring him. And people viewing Ezra Bridger like a loser? Which is unfair that she treated him the wrong way. But more disgusting act why in the world that Lando flirted a 16-year-old Sabine wren in Rebels Season 1? In my opinion, Lando is a pervert. Lando look like a 30 year old in rebel season 1. Which is not funny for Ezra bridger that he been treated like shit…

In Season 3 I still never get over the fact that Sabine hugged Kanan instead of Ezra, which is a total insulted

Why, in the world that Sabine never gave Ezra Bridger the credit that he’s ever done for her throughout Rebels… my personal take that Ezra Bridger was overlooked and unappreciated.

Ezra did everything for Sabine Throughout Rebels

1.Ezra Gave the Tie Fighter for Sabine to Spray painted 2. Ezra tries to help Sabine training, Sabersticks in rebels season3 (trials of the darksaber.)3 and lastly, Ezra save Sabine 7 times through missions in 3 seasons even though in Ahsoka series, saving Sabine twice in one mission,,. Including rescuing Sabine‘s father. From Rebels Season 4 to Ahsoka Series Sabine has develop her feelings for Ezra , through 10 years of the timeline.. and on the other hand, but in episode 6 why the the directors including Dave Filoni, did not show the real emotion of Sabine & Ezra’s reunion? They act like they see eachother for days and that is a red flag.🚩

I guess it’s time they need to wake up and open their eyes and face the reality. The writers and directors got it all wrong and that is also criticizing the show.

And let’s be real Sabine wren has never seen Ezra Bridger in 10 MF years! And never showed the realistic emotion? I find that out why in the writers are making Sabine like a hypocrite and act like never have feelings for Ezra.

She’s been hiding her feelings through a decade..

Ezra Bridger has grown mature strong good looking man also high value.. Sabine has made a big mistake to reject, ghosting him and pushing him away. And he is not the same so-called “ annoying kid “ and he’s not that person anymore.Then Sabine turned herself around and she felt that she cared quite. Honestly she fail in love with him.

I don’t want to hear with this so-called cliché for me. That is an excuse for people, saying that.

As for Dave Flioni? He been playing mind games throughout 9 years, and he kept ducking over that.

People gonna say “He make them siblings “

My question is, Don’t you knowthat Dave Filoni wrote those signs, hints, and teases throughout rebels & Ahsoka Series, with these 2 characters of Sabine & Ezra?

as far as I’m concerned, if Sabine do care about Ezra why is she didn’t say Ezra’s face? she been waited too long and for me personally, I’m tired of waiting.

and right now I’m a say it is very clear

i’m tired of people who make a fun of of the ship through 9 years and right now it was hypocritical by anitEzrabine Shippers

at the end of day, all you haters won’t be celebrating … because you’re afraid to see Sabezra/Ezrabine become Canon “

"we don't have any non toxic straight star wars relationships!"

so, did we just forget about Han and Leia orrrrrrrrrr...

[shinisahottie]

My question is, why am I being called a bully for just stating my opinion?

[dragonrebelrose]

Beautiful analysis @lothcatlovesysalamiri​ (by the way, love your name and pic!). Filon is definitely the #1 anti, with another high-up Rebels creator (of which I can’t remember his name or seem to find him on the list of writers/creators) being second place. So there’s a lot of anti-ezrabine within the creators and writers of this show and Rebels, but it’s possible that the studio or other creators/executives would want to explore a romance in this show, and the best option was Ezra and Sabine. That’s my hope anyway. I pray it will come to fruition, but we’ll see.

Ezra says “sister.”

Sabine just scoffs.

Yeah, girl, I don’t believe it, either.

[softpadawan]

You make some really good points here. I believe that one of the reasons—possibly a big one, I'm not completely sure—there aren't more Sabezra works on AO3 is the anti reasoning of "Ezra and Sabine are like siblings/found family and so shipping them is incest". I've seen this bizarre take with my own two eyes right here on Tumblr. Classic fanpol logic. Never mind the fact that a) Ezra and Sabine aren't blood related, b) they aren't legally siblings, and c) they weren't raised together as siblings. I guess people don't know that you're allowed to dislike a ship without having to invent a problematic reason why no one else should like it either, but that's a whole different can of beans. Also—I don't have the actual post link but it's floating around here on Tumblr somewhere—I've seen figures showing that AO3 hosts a lot more m/m works compared to other fanfiction sites like Fanfiction.net and Wattpad, both of which tend to be heavier on the m/f pairings, IIRC. Case in point, the Sabezra tag on Wattpad has 562 results. (I don't know how valid those numbers are since I'm not very active on Wattpad, but that's just what my search results yielded.) FFN's filtering is abysmal since you can't search by ship, not to mention unreliable, but "Ezrabine" had 33 hits and "Sabezra" 53. (This doesn't include overlaps or authors who don't know or use the portmanteaus.) So there's definitely an audience of Sabezra fans out there. Maybe the popularity of the pairing is declining—a lot of the fics on Wattpad are older, I've noticed, and the authors may have moved on to different fandoms by now—or maybe everyone is focusing on male Star Wars characters these days. Who knows? Regarding the prominence-in-spite-of-plausibility of the Skybridger pairing, I suspect it might have a lot to do with Ezra being a complementary narrative device to Luke; the double moons (Lothal) to Luke's double suns (Tatooine), the yang to his yin, and so on etc. People really seem to like that sort of thing. (And also male, which fits with AO3's m/m statistic.) We certainly know a lot more about Luke than we do all Ezra's peers from Rebels, unfortunately, but c'est la supporting cast. It's like you said, Luke is pretty much the face of the franchise, and very popular. A handsome, heroic, Force-sensitive boy the same age as Ezra. Pairing them with one another is logically the next step to being on the same planet for a few hours, right? 😂

It is a VERY odd feeling to be searching things on the fandom wikis and discover that through trivia scattered through the canons, Caleb Dume / Kanan Jarrus was born in the year before Han Solo. And we don’t really know when they were born in each year so they could be almost two years apart in age or just a couple days.

Leia/Han is a canon and beloved ship, Luke/Han is a non-canon beloved ship, Ezra/Kanan is denigrated and people bring up the age gap but it’s the same kriffing age difference.

It’s not strictly the mentor/protege teacher/student aspect for Kanezra that the Han/Skywalker Twins ships lack either causing the ships to be treated so differently, because Obi Wan is shipped a whole bunch with Qui-Gon Jinn and with Anakin Skywalker. I do see those ships get hate, but they’re a popular ship getting hate, not a niche one.

We can’t even really say it’s because of how old Ezra was when he met Kanan because again, Obi/Anakin is right there.

Is it because they’re cartoons, and the other ships are live action (or live action with cartoon supplement) ? But other Rebels ships are doing just fine.

Is it a combination? Luck of the draw? Just because Rebels hasn’t been out as long as the Original & Prequel Trilogies or even Clone Wars show so there’s less time for fanworks to accumulate and fandom to chill?

Han and Kanan are the same age. They’re the same kriffing age.

[cinamontoadtoasted]

I ship both but this shit is so dumb. You don’t need to attack shippers because literally neither of these ships are going to happen.

Ezra and Sabine are mentioned in multiple interviews with Dave Filoni and the actors, to have a sibling-like relationship, it’s okay to still ship them. They aren’t actually siblings, care for each other deeply and are played by conventionally attractive people, of course they’ll be shipped, even I think it would be cute if they became romantic but there aren’t actually signs pointing to them getting together. I know, it’s sad and all but stop being a dick. There’s no reason to cherry pick shit, I’ve seen plenty of weird Sebezra art and soft wolfwren.

Personally, I ship Wolfwren as enemies to lovers, but the ‘to’ is very important. I think Shin will get a redemption arc that will be somewhat tied to Sabine, romantic or not (probably not). I don’t want a Reylo situation where they hate each other but also have weird romantic tension, I want a proper arc for both of them.

I think Shin is probably going to help Sabine connect with the force, as her green padawan braid beads symbolize her strong connection to it and it’s something Sabine actively struggles with. And in turn, Sabine will help her by giving her people to trust and look out for her after Baylan abandoned her.

TLDR: Shut up shipping wars are stupid, nothing is rapey about Wolfwren, just have fun.

It’s fucking Star Wars, not that serious.

All of this fanart was liked by the actors btw

Dear Ahsoka fandom

Why is it important for Sabine to be in a relationship where she's visibly scared? (Exhibit A)

Have the Characters' best interests, wellbeing, and safety gone out the window for our own gratification? Have we forgotten that what we get off to, is not automatically what our favorite Character gets off to?

Do better. -Frederick
