^ Bingo.

Like I've always said, don't change the characters into something they're not just to help your ship.

Rather, try to understand the characters and their personalities and behavior as best you can (and what they probably would or wouldn't do), and see where that leads you and what ship seems the most likely to happen based on that.

'And I love how they say it so nonchalantly like that doesn't make Freddie look like a total dirtbag. '

If the only way you can hurt the other ship, or help your own, is to think a basically decent character would do something horrible, you probably aren't in very good shape with your powers of prediction.
