why i still ship scorose
i want to explain why - after all these years and all these cute scorbus posts on the internet - i still ship scorose.
rose x scorpius originated from this one quote by ron weasley in the last chapter of the hp series, where he asks rose to beat scorpius in all tests and not fall in love with him, as arthur weasley wouldn’t be happy. of course a lot of the potterheads loved the idea of a competitive relationship between rose and scorpius that eventually ended up in a romantic one. so did i. what made it even better was this juliet&romeo effect to it, as their dads strongly dislike each other. back in the early 2010s tumblr was flooded by endless funny and cute headcanons and fanarts that were created by scorose shippers.
sadly, cursed child was released and rose was portrayed as this intolerant and arrogant witch and scorpius was so obsessed with the idea of dating her, that - based on this play - the ship was a terrible one while scorbus seemed to be the ideal ship.
but here is the thing. i do not consider cc as canon and since i fell in love with scorose that much, i couldn’t simply change my mind and now ship something else. also, i drew a whole graphic novel about scorose which only made me love them more.
for me this ship is so meaningful because i am free in imagining a beautiful yet interesting love-story in this wonderful harry potter universe that we all love and basing their characteristics on their parents - some of my favourite characters.
