I love Maya/Phoenix, but I hate how much fanart there is of them where they're paired together in a romantic sense, because I believe their relationship is more of a brother and sister thing.So in this thread, non-romantic Maya and Phoenix!
You must be new here.In anime, EVERYTHING is subtext for romance.Characters touched each other? Romance.Characters talk together? Romance.Characters yell at each other? Romance.Characters attempt to kill each other frequently? Oh, you better BELIEVE that's a sign of some serious romance.
>>410532character's head explodes... ROMANCE!
>>410532Not new, I just have a lot of unjustified faith that not everyone in fandom is all about the sex. Seriously, friendships can be cute too :(
>>410560You know that, and I know that, but... well, I think I know that. I may have been corrupted. Who knows? Point is, all fandoms are stupid. Every last one. And every person in them.
>>410488While I agree with you for the most part, Pearly doomed them to be a romantic pairing.It's more like when another character suggests a pair is together, then the ball REALLY gets rolling.
I believe there won't be much of non-romantic kind of this stuff. So if anyone has, I, for one, want ANY kind of Phoenix/Maya or just Maya. Because I lack Maya and she's my favourite character.
>>410620Pearly doomed them to be a romantic pairing.Very true. While I'd certainly entertained my own fantasies about a Phoenix/Maya relationship in the first game, Pearl's scheming in the second (along with the card at the end) really sealed the deal for me and made the possibility of a relationship between them more realistic.
>>410620>>410680While people might want to consider a romantic relationship between Phoenix and Pearl, I think it's quite blatantly obvious that this is purely infatuation. She believes that he embodies many ideals that are admirable, but doesn't seem to acknowledge any bad qualities in Phoenix. \tl;dr? See image.
>>410681Uh, you meant Phoenix and MAYA, right? None of us are pairing Phoenix with Pearl here.
>>410682Just seconding that almost any pairing can be made because of crazy fanfics...
