Hi, my name is Kelly, and I'm a huge TV nerd! I also have a talent for always falling in love with ships that are doomed from the start.
Congrats to people who ship couples that are actually endgame, no idea what that's like
Sometimes a pairing is absolutely perfect for each other, but for whatever reason, they don't end up together. Maybe the ship was ruined for no reason, maybe one of the characters was killed off, or maybe they never even got a chance to thrive in canon in the first place.
Here are 16 jokes you'll only understand if your favorite couples never end up together:
1. First, this extremely personal attack:
non endgame ships just hit different because you become obsessed with them. if a ship is endgame then it's like yeah they got their happily ever after and that chapter is closed. but if it's not then there's daily breakdowns and so many possibilities and you never get over them.
2. This very real truth:
Your ship is either canon endgame or it has really good fanfiction, you can’t have it both ways
3. This statement I wish I couldn't relate to:
4. This pain and suffering:
@JUDEC4RD4N ships where they don’t end up together ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
5. This tweet that belongs on a T-shirt:
only sexy people have unhealthy attachments to non endgame ships
6. This trope that I both love and DESPISE:
Y’all go on about “right person, wrong time” being the saddest trope but what about “right person, not enough time”
7. This uncomfortably relatable statement:
i might just be a glutton for punishment but i found the more tragic a ship is, the more invested i become in it. give me an otp whose love is doomed, whose happy ending is hard-earned, & make it hurt so bad i turn into a husk of my former self by the end...& that’s it, u got me
8. This post that kind of makes me want to curl up under a blanket and mourn:
9. This tweet that reminded me of the 53 AO3 tabs I have open on my laptop:
wait y'all ship canon ships ?? where's the fun ? where's the pain ? where's the never ending hope that they will somehow get together even tho you know the writers hate you
10. This song that was definitely made for us, thank you very much:
drivers license is for non endgame ships not for endgame ships
11. This tweet that makes me cry more than a bowl of chopped onions:
do you have that ship that means the world to you and is truly the best, strongest and most powerful couple you’ve ever shipped but then the writers decided to f it up, rewrite their history and ruin everything to the point you can’t even look back and enjoy it again?
12. This whole mood:
me each time one of my favourite ships gets screwed by the writers
13. This live look into my life:
POV: your ship is not canon
14. This post that applies to so, so many of my favorite ships:
15. This very accurate description of my Twitter feed:
once you become moots with people because you both love that non endgame ship It becomes a whole circle of recommending each other the same type of ships that brings nothing but pain and the suffering never ends
16. And finally: THIS. RIGHT. HERE.
yes, breakups hurts but have you ever ship two characters that were soulmates and meant to be together but never got the endgame they deserved? THAT HURTS.
Ugh! At least we have fanfiction in the meantime.
