#stellaride baby incoming

[sailingfireshipz]

Also, Stella is going to be such a fun mom because if she's buying a basketball game for three adults to play with, loooooord knows what she's ordering for her kiddos. Hmmm, WHERE are the WRITERS!?

[sailingfireshipz]

And when we get a triple parallel with Stella being pregnant & she's unwell, Kelly's there to reassure & affirm her. THEN WHAT!?!! Oh & when he's telling her that she's still as hot as ever with his hand over her belly & she just stares up at him with heart eyes....THEN WHAT!!!!!!!!!!?

So i'm not upset at all about the possibility of adoption. And she didn't say she absolutely doesn't want to get pregnant she's not sure. Which is valid because of the family history. But she said I'm not sure I want to get pregnant but I want a family with you. She asked him if he'd be open to adoption. Also we have to remember he was older but April's parents let him into their home. I don't think Kelly would ever be against adoption. I mean would he like a bio child i'm sure he would but it's not a deal breaker.

I know some people are upset but I'm not mad about it. Things could still happen. She could decide right now she wants to adopt and later have bio kid. Anyway, I loved that ending scene.

I love how as a collective, we all just automatically assumed Stellarides' first baby will be a giiiiirl followed by a baby boy. Like every fic I've read pretty much confirms girl FIRST. Like Kelly Severide has girl dad written all over him & i fear we must see it come to fruition.

"More time doesn't just magically appear. We have to make the time, or it's never going to happen" -Stella Kidd-Severide

Ok, Stellaride, let's MAKE IT HAPPEN then.

[sailingfireshipz]

Exactly & i refuse to believe that 1-2 are viable options here because if they are lmao

the way i see it there are two scenarios: either stella gets demoted which would 1) be ABSOLUTELY insane for pascal to do and 2) be just a repeat of season 4 kelly. that or she steps down from truck which she would never do if she wasn’t pregnant

Ok, so i could be putting too much thought into this & completely reading into things that Andrea has no intentions of fulfilling, but this is where I'm at with the Stellaride baby slow burn. @chicagofires & @stella-kidd, this is for you 😆

It started clicking for me back in 13x08 when Stella was talking to Ritter when he was spinning out about moving in with Dwayne. She said, "You guys are good. You're just asking for more time. " I started wondering why they'd have Stella be the one to deliver that line versus a Violet or Novak, especially with the baby talk conversation not being addressed since 13x01.

It felt like they were acknowledging the elephant in the room with the audience even though Stellaride themselves haven't. To be fair between the mess with Damon, Stella almost losing her job, the Bishop two parter, Stella & Kelly missing their respective episodes there hasn't really been too many moments where it would have made sense for stellaride to address the elephant in the room. They just need more time.

Prior to last weeks episode getting pulled, we would have had the episodes in this order 13x10- "You got this" a saying very specific to Stella & Stellaride hanging randomly in a children's classroom. Let's face it the call itself was very minor in scale. They could have had that same call at a different location. Hell, it would have made sense for the police cadets that were training to be the ones impacted by the gases, yet they weren't they chose to have it at a community center for young kids. That sign placement being in a childrens classroom, imo was very intentional.

Also, Stella asking Hermann how Mouch did as acting LT. This is a valid question to ask for sure, but it also goes to the topic of her knowing that her rig would be in great hands pending she has to step away. It's finally stabilized after Gallo, Gibson & Damon. Carver seems to be back on track. Ritter is meshing well & clearly stepping up. Mouch jumped right on in as acting LT & didn't miss a beat. Her first baby (T81) is good. ✅️

Next would have been 13x11- Stella's cousin comes to town to reveal family history. At this point I don't think this cousin is coming with ill intent. Again, this is just my feelings. I have nothing to base it off of. Whatever this family history is would have sparked a conversation again with Stellaride. Do I think this conversation would have ended with Stella saying she's ready, no, not exactly. I think it would have ended still up in the air, but the topic at least brought back to the surface & acknowledged. I also think it would give Stella some resolution to some unsolved family trauma. Stella getting closure from her traumatic past ✅️

We say this all the time. STELLARIDE needs big life altering pushes to make decisions most times. Kelly & Stella had been in this weird holding pattern for the majority of early S6, even when Zach was in the picture. They both were dancing around the matter until 6x15, when Stella's trapped with bullets flying (big push). "Kelly for once can you just tell me what you're feeling" (BIG PUSH)

Other notable pushes: Stella breaks up with Kelly in S7, forcing him to choose to be a better man for her. Kelly is unsure if he should propose, 9x15 "I'm never going to leave you happens" he drops to one knee & asks her. Both scared of getting married until 10x21 happens then it's let's get married next week. Kelly kidnapped held at gunpoint. Don't you have a wife & kids? 12x11 prompted 12x13 confession of maybe we start our own... BIG PUSHES

So what's the BIG PUSH for S13? Oh idk maybe the first crossover in 5 years. In the last crossover, Kelly verbalized for the first time he saw himself & Stella growing old together with a family of their own. And don't get me wrong I'm not saying she's going to come out of this crossover like omg I want a baby right now but it would be hard for me not to assume that she doesn't come out of it ready to have a genuine CANDID conversation that leads to action.

Ultimately if after 13x12 they still aren't acknowledging the elephant in the room then I'll start to become annoyed again but currently I'm enjoying watching these subtle pieces fall into place & am interested on how they play out. The ONLY thing I'm curious about is how or if them switching the episode, order around will have any impact from a continuity standpoint.

I do not believe these crossover episodes will be standalone & that topics brought up in them won't spill over or show up in other episodes.

Again, I could be way off base here, but these are my thoughts. What are yours?

[sailingfireshipz]

There's something about Kelly meeting & having a potential bond/relationship with someone from Stella's family that literally just makes me so emotional! Stella has met & accepted everyone from Kelly's family. Benny, Jennifer, Katie & now Damon. Meanwhile, the only 2 people from Stella's past that's Kelly has met have been toxic ass Grant & Tyler. Each of these encounters did nothing but drive them apart for some time due to the fallout, but this time could really be different! Like, I seriously don't think Stella's cousin is coming with bad intentions, so the fact that Kelly gets to meet someone connected to Stella that is actually a decent person just makes me want to sob! Also the possibility that this encounter might actually help drive them CLOSER together versus APART is just fucking magic. These two are MAGIC to me & I'm so optimistic about this.

Stella Kidd Defenders, Stellaride Nation, Luna Shay Severide Truthers HAPPY New Year!!! We made it another year & i just want to say I'm grateful for this little slice of fandom heaven. I'm not new to the show. However, interacting with the famdom was something I had never done, & I'm so happy that I started last year! Getting to yap about my favorite show, characters, getting to theorize & experience so many of yalls art, fanfics, and insights has been such an enjoyable experience, so thank you! I would tag everyone however I fear i might forget someone, so if you see this, just know it's for YOU!

Thank you for sharing, engaging, and being so welcoming! I'm so excited to see what Andrea has in store for us & Stellaride in 2025. Buckle up, ladies & gents it's about to be a ride, I'm sure.🫠😅😜

[sailingfireshipz]

All logic is out the window! I'm not here to discuss what makes "logical sense" anymore delusions of grandeur ONLY.

Please & thank you.

and what if i said this was for a scene of stellaride at an ultrasound appointment 👀

[sailingfireshipz]

Daydreaming about the moment in which Stella tells Kelly she's ready to start trying for a baby. His face is going to light up & those icy blues will glisten from tears. Like, i might need resuscitation because I'm sure I'll just black out when it happens.

[sailingfireshipz]

I'm not ok. I AM NOT OK. I aM nOT OK. I am fully committed to jumping head first through the Delulu train, but I think we're about to have the baby conversation of all baby conversations.

[sailingfireshipz]

No notes, just them.

[sailingfireshipz]

I just want everyone to know how unbelievably unbearable i will become when Stella Kidd tells Kelly Severide she's ready to start their family. If possible, that unbearable-ness will increase to a level unimaginable, probably insufferable when she tells him she's pregnant. I fear my brain may implode & my heart explode.

[sailingfireshipz]

I can't remember who I was talking to about, but I thought we'd meet the family member before the crossover & this essentially confirms that. My theory was that she'd meet the family member, maybe it got left on a cliffhanger from a Stellaride revisiting their baby conversation & then the events of the crossover would be the big PUSH need for them to land on next steps! :) hmmmm

[sailingfireshipz]

It's only delusion until it HAPPENS!

luna shay might be coming sooner than we think y’all 🥺

let me be delusional pls
