I get the aspect of wanting to do the whole imagining a "what if" scenario. But the thing is, the reason I'm against shipping as a whole because to me, it falls in line with someone writing a ridiculous theory, and there's no particular reasoning behind it. And the worst part is, no one tries to correct anyone, because they can't. If you tried to tell someone how their ship doesn't work, you end up getting replies like "it's my happiness" or "my opinion".

It's kinda unfair to be honest. When Valyrie makes her ridiculous theories (I'm one of those who have a problem with it), people are quick to break it down. But it feels like with shipping, no one's allowed to touch that. It's as if when it comes to story context, you can't make a wrong assumption, but when it comes to romantic decisions, it's free game (even if it goes against story context and logic i.e. KanekixEto). No matter how intriguing the idea may be, it just... won't happen.

Maybe I'm just one of those people who can't wrap my head around breaking away from story format and let imagination roam for the fun of it, because well, to me, it has to make sense, even if it's the author's own made up in-story logic, it has to stick to that. It just kind of tickles me mentally in the wrong way when I see people propose impropable pairings.
