This is platonic right- Ash is literally a teenager and Clay is like 60- if this is anything but platonic you are a disgusting human being

Ooh, I've been waiting for this! A few points:

1) Teenager can also define 18 and 19 year olds. Just because Ash says "It's like you can see inside my teenage brain" in the first movie, doesn't mean she's a minor in the first or second movie.

2) In the first movie, it's obvious she's LIVING with her boyfriend and kicks him out. They're also booking their own gigs and sign up for Buster's show without mention of their parents needing to sign anything. With Meena, we see her family is actively in her life and most likely signed whatever forms were needed. Either that means Ash and her boyfriend are emancipated minors or are at least 18.

3) In the second movie, Ash is receiving paychecks from the NIGHT CLUB she works at. Without parent's permission which, again there's no mention of, means she'd be at least 18.

4) Stage productions take time, effort and money to put on. The one we see at the end of Sing 2 was extremely rushed and had a literal army of stage hands to help make it happen. That took 3 weeks. Normal productions take months to happen, especially with limited help. The Alice in Wonderland play most likely took months to get perfect and, in the movie, they say that "it's been sold out every night." This means it's also been open for a while. This implies the passage of time and we don't even know about other possible plays they've done.

5) Enough time has passed since the first movie that Johnny's dad's gang is now out of prison for robbery and doing community service in the second movie. In most states, the punishment for aggravated robbery is a minimum of a few years. Not to mention the fact that Johnny's dad broke out of his cell for a short time, which could extend his sentencing.

6) There's no concrete mention of how old Clay or Ruby (his wife) are. We only know they were married, she inspired all of his songs, and she's been dead for 15 years. On average, people are in their early to mid 20's when they get married. Any amount of time could have passed since their marriage to her death and then the 15 year gap.

7) In his wedding photo, it's black and white but his mane colors appear to be the same or close to when he and his wife got married. Basically, people can headcanon Clay as old or young as they'd like because his appearance doesn't seem to change.

8) Relationships don't need s*x to be romantic. Period. As I've stated, Ash is grown and can make her own decisions. Clay is grown and can make his own decisions. He or she might not want s*x for any number of reasons but can still be in a healthy relationship. They also COULD want it and that would be fine because they're both grown. Just because there's an age difference in consenting adults doesn't mean it's harmful.

9) As I feel sound in my argument that they're both of age, and also because they're fictional, I can ship whoever I want. I could ship someone with a potted plant if I wanted. If you don't like it, don't look for it. And please don't insult people without having valid arguments. Thanks 😉

Feb. 1 Note: To the anon who is blowing up my inbox with hate, again with no concrete arguments for anything, why are you coming here if you feel this way? In the words of Nanna Noodleman: Did you think I'd drop to my knees and declare you a genius? When you see my (well thought out) argument above, you think you being angry at my decisions is going to change my love of this ship? Nah. You can say all you want, I'm gonna keep proudly shipping it 😄 Haters gonna hate 😘
