#the 2nd episode has so many good gwikki moments so this was tough

Top 5 favorite Gwikki moments in season 2

1. “Easy Nate. She’s not a couch.” *Nikki laughs*

It’s such a small detail, but I just love it! Gwen burning Nate and Nikki just laughing reminds me of how Jackie burned Eric in Bye Bye Basement and she and Hyde shared a high five. It’s always the little moments that make up a ship, not just big and grand scenes.

Bonus:

My girls make a great team, all I've gotta say.

2. "I thought we were actually friends Gwen. And that I was more than just Nate's girlfriend, but I guess I was wrong."

There are so many good Gwikki moments in Something To Talk About but I had to pick this one because this scene gets me emotional for so many reasons, one of them being that this confirms that Gwen and Nikki continued to hangout alone after Step By Step. If they truly only hung out one time, then this dialogue wouldn’t exist. Because Nikki truly cares about Gwen! She thought they had a real connection and she ended up getting stabbed in the heart when finding out that Gwen lied this whole time.

Gwikki getting the angst era I wanted it is a win in my book.

3. “Nikki... I know your parents are on your ass about all this stuff, but that's on them.”

Baby Baby Baby is easily one of the Gwikki episodes this season for so many reasons. There are so many good moments, but I pick this one specifically because it shows how good they are together.

Nikki has always been an overachiever and wanting to please her parents. She has a whole plan being made for her, and it doesn’t turn out as she hoped, and she’s relieved because the plan is what her parents want, not her.

I love Gwen pushes Nikki here to live for herself and not care about what others think. And I fully believe this advice is what pushed Nikki to take more risks in Friends In Low Places and get out of her comfort zone.

It shows why they’d be so good together. Gwen lives her life to the fullest and how she wants to, while Nikki is more worried about living her parents' lives. But together, they can balance each other out.

4. "Are you two dating?"

Okay now this is just my shipper self squealing, but like I get these vibes of “Gwen had a boyfriend and didn’t tell me” and even a little jealousy haha. I just love any interaction with Gwen and Nikki so this makes my heart happy. The writers could’ve given this line to anyone, but they gave it to Nikki and I feel like that’s a sign haha.

5. "Your bras always match your underwear like in the commercials."

Idc what anyone says, there’s something so gay about this line. Like there is NO reason for Gwen to casually be mentioning Nikki’s bra and underwear combo here. While I don’t think they hooked up, Gwen and Nikki definitely went shopping together (ty @randomwriter23 for bringing up this hc) and changed in the same rooms.
