brief ship manifesto

Guys its ok. How can I still be talking about obx after a month. The hold this show has on me seriously.
First of all I must say I do not want to see Jiara together at all...they're just bros TO MEEEE. Kie needs a female relationship or no one in the pogue group, and JJ needs POPE… or to be alone. We don't need everyone to be paired off people!!!!!!!! I’m fine w John B and Sarah tgt tbh but (read on) they should've explored siara more……….but fr if they make jiara happen i'll blow everyone at netflix up. I can just pretend it doesn't exist because canon can be whatever I want it to be but i'll scream and cry and throw up.
JJPOPE
I saw a tweet that was like when are they gonna confirm JJ fell first but Pope fell harder? I'm gonna end my shit its so true..these two are just so um we ummm. ANYBODY WANT TO BE BOY BEST FRIENDS??? I literally don't even have to make a real argument for why they should be together bc it's literally right there in the text. What if we were both into the same girl and we were boy besties. And we would die for each other and constantly save each other. And we neck kissed in a hot tub. And finally realised our feelings. What if that happened huh. BECAUSE whats gonna happen if they make jiara real in s3 Pope is not gonna be happy about this and honestly it doesn’t even make sense cuz (as I said in my first post) JJ was acting like such a sad kicked puppy over Pope and Kie...they need to be together idc.
SIARA
Sarah and Kiara...anybody want to be girl best friends. The first few episodes with them not being friends, especially when they had the will they won't they with Kie and john b in the first 3-4 episodes before deciding it wont work AND THEN HE DATES SARAH...There are so many levels to this guys seriously. When Sarah first goes over and they start fighting and she calls Kie a shit talking bitch <3 The boys leaving them at the boat to sort their shit out after this is saurrr T__________TTTTT. They definitely won’t get together cuz of John B but they love each other. Sarah becomming the first real kook friend Kiara had all freshman year and then making everyone turn against her after not inviting her to that party is SOOOOO. Girls be betraying each other. (sorry Lottie for stealing this quote from ur tweets about hannibal jennifer's body) But the Inherent homoeroticism that comes from loving/hating your high school bestie…. Delishious. but i'm glad it all worked out eventually. THEY SHOULD HAVE KISSED. Ok I'm good.
Now the entire reason I made this post….My disgusting rarepair RAFEKIE..
We know basically nothing about Kiara’s kook year so i’m thinking like..her and Rafe definitely knew each other bc she would’ve been over at the Cameron house often...and her family is in the island club or whatever tf it is so like They know each other. Giving very much freshmen(?) crushing on her best friends hot fucked up older brother and vice versa, like they would’ve been at school/parties/events etc together so likeeeee. They must’ve been close or Rafe does this to annoy her but he calls her Kie which only her Friends do..and in the scene at the outdoor movie theatre he is so nice to her asking her how she is genuinely being sweet which is saur weird to see considering he’s an asshole the rest of the time. Later in this episode they have a kook v pogue fight and everytime there’s a fight between the boys Rafe picks her up out of the way umm like...yass. Same w the boatshed fight in the season one finale when Barry attacks JJ and Rafe just Moves her around. I really enjoy how that scene was shot/choreographed when she slaps him saying I don't know and then he chokes her for mentioning Peterkin..and then Pope comes and beats the shit out of him <333 he looks sexy bloodied though
Another thing that makes me think they could’ve been involved is in the Midsummers episode after JJ is getting kicked out, Rafe yells “Tell Kiara that she looks pretty hot for a pogue'' and this sets JJ off again trying to attack him...it's obviously a sore spot for the group but they never developed it further than this but i WANNA KNAUURRRRR. It could just be Rafe trying to get a rise out of JJ (which it does) but w the background context of Rafe Knowing Her it makes soo much more sense than just some random comment. Like they will never get together but i want to see a flashback tho.
I definitely don't think Rafe should get a girlfriend next season despite what obx tiktok fans say bc even though watching it I would be like So pick me. Choose me, if he did like the y/n possibilities would go through the roof, I think it would kind of ruin his character arc like he should be trying to get help/free himself from Ward/Truly redeem/make it up to Sarah etc. I think a love interest, while sexy, would just be like..idk. Maybe if he got a girl that made him worse that could be interesting but I kind of don’t want to see it, he's got enough shit to deal with LMAO. And also a Rafe kiss/sex scene in obx might push me over the edge bc I saw literally a 1 minute clip on tumblr from a short film Drew Starkey is in and he gets handcuffed to a bed after kissing this girl and i Literally. Lost it. Like i had to close the tab I haven’t even watched the whole film because i might punch a hole in my computer.
Anyway,
Back to Kiara. Her actress in an interview said she never even considered Rafe/Kie but she thinks it would be interesting. LIKE GIRL I KNOW!!!!! She also said she thinks Kiara should have a third party come in as her love interest and i agree sooo much it should be CLEO. Because it failed w John B, Pope AND JJ is just her bestie so like...we need a different person to come in cuz the whole crew was after her. Like if we don’t get jjpope confirmed it should be Kie/Cleo..we need gay people in this bitch for real !!!!!!! Obx really is such a straight person show but its not. If you really look there is so much potential..jjpope..whatever Kie/Cleo is..Rafe/Barry(LOL)..It has potential people!!!!!! Netflix let me in the writing room you bitch.
Speaking of Rafe/Barry its actually kinda funny cuz their actors had this instagram live and kept joking about milking Rafe and kissing ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ LMAO. honestly all their lives are so entertaining they crack me up i recommend them.
Okay I swear this might be my last obx post for a while, hopefully they confirm a s3 and then I can be crazy again next year so I can revisit this and see what's changed and if i’m right. Thank u everyone who reads this btw i just be saying shit.
