Two Houses, Alike In Dignity

Day 13 - Star Crossed OTP

Okay, that phrase “star-crossed” has a really bad rep, in my mind. It brings up images of drawn-out, mandated romances where the writers keep insisting that two people are totally in love and meant for each other while the audience is like… ummm, no.

So I had to struggle past that, and then try to figure out what ‘star-crossed’ even meant.

And then, this morning, I was intending to talk about Allison and Scott. He’s a werewolf, she’s the daughter of a family of hunters, it’s perfect. Only tonight's episode happened, and everything is sadness.

Day 14 - Childhood OTP (Before You Knew What Shipping Was)

Indiana Jones/Marianne Ravenwood. The fourth Indiana Jones movie got a lot of points in my book, simply for getting those two married.

Star-crossed specifically means "fate is against them". So like, tragic couples who the universe never allows to become a thing/live happily ever after.
