Reactions such as the ones mentioned above are why shipping is a dangerous practice for some people. It's only natural that people discuss any given ship in an "X should be with Y and not Z because of reasons A, B and C" manner. I'm one of the most active shipping debaters on several other wikis, and it's not just this fandom that is full of people who would stop watching a show just because characters A and B end up together as opposed to A and C. That being said, it's essentially a given that at least one percent of a show's fanbase is a little too concerned with character ship. All we can do is try to show them the error of their ways, and hope for the best. I'd comment on the characters themselves, but it appears that Rachim did it for me, and for that, I thank you. I'd just like to reiterate the fact that there are plenty of things to cry about. Creddie's (probable) defeat is NOT one of them.
