Reasons Root/Shaw is The Ship of All Time
Both are main characters for multiple seasons of the show. So often there’s one gay character in the main cast and the love interest is a recurring guest star whose only purpose is to be the love interest. It’s so rare that a relationship consists of two fully developed main characters with goals and arcs and interests outside of their romantic storyline
Both are older women in their 30s. As I’m getting older I’m getting more and more tired of the average age of wlw in media being like 17-22. Give me more rep of older women finding love PLEASE
They’re Canon but in an interesting and complex way. They weren’t shoehorned together within 5 episodes of first meeting, and they’re not 3 seasons of subtext for absolutely no payoff like most other sapphic ships. They’re enemies to reluctant allies and partners to almost lovers. They would die for each other, they have died and killed for each other, even though they’ve technically only kissed once in canon.
They are unabashedly sexual. They’re kinky. They’ve shot each other and tased each other and restrained each other and almost tortured each other and both were 100% into it. Their flirting is rife with innuendo. We need more sapphic relationships that are this horny
