Okay yes! This!!

I don’t really do the whole shipping thing most of the time, I generally don’t care, it’s not something I really enjoy, but how. Exactly. Am I supposed to look at these two and their back and forths and fumbling around and bespoke thematic relevance to one another and not go, “Sorry, they’re married. They just don’t know it yet. I don’t make the rules. They just are.”

If we ever get Tech back (as we should and I still hope we do), and if we get more of Tech and Phee (as we should and I hope we do), I hope Tech goes in to kiss Phee first. Because:

1. It would show that nearly dying out of nowhere really had an impact. Knowing that you’re probably going to die on a battlefield somewhere is different than it almost happening and then being gone for an extended period of time as a result. He needs Phee to know how he feels now because the last time he didn’t do or say anything he almost never came back, and he’s not sure when they’re going to run out of time.

2. I think it could be really sweet.

3. Phee is amazing and deserves to be smooched by her hot pilot boyfriend.

(Fandom salt under the cut)

4. Because, yes, I am still salty about the constant “why would he even like her?” and “Phee’s abusive and Tech’s just too afraid to push back” that was rampant for most of season two, and nothing would fuel my spiteful little heart more than seeing the idea that Tech isn’t into Phee shut down by having him make a move towards her like that.

#fandom seasoning #‘why would he even like her’ LOOK AT HER #she’s more than a match for Tech in intelligence and sass #she’s fun #she’s funny #she’s amazing with Omega and Lyana adores her #she took a huge risk taking a group of fugitives who needed help to a secret planet of refugees #she helps people displaced from their homes by helping them hang on to little bits of culture #Indiana Jones *wishes* he was Phee #and let’s be real if Tech had been there in Juggernaut he’d have started planning the wedding right there #like COME ON #and no I don’t think he’s fully invested until Pabu where he sees just how good she is #but I’d argue that he’s interested as far back as Entombed #because they’re both flirting in completely different flirting languages there #also #yes I need Tech to come back because it fundamentally doesn’t function as a character death #and there’s waaaaay too much set up for him to be dead in the first place #(and frankly he’s too popular and the reaction was too violent for him to stay dead on the off chance that was the plan)#but also Phee as a character deserves much better than what she’s currently got
