Week 13: Flynn, Eve, and Moriarty
This is the end...it's been a fun few months seeing all the different creations for all the ships, and thinking about the ships in depth, from writing fics, to doing these analysis post things. Let’s get on to the final ship then.
I really haven’t given all that much thought to this ship sadly, partly because I was pretty busy/sick on my birthday weekend (also why this is happening on a Monday not when the week started), and partly because there’s not a whole lot of specifically Fleviarty going on in the show compared to other ships.
That being said, I think Fleviarty would have a similar dynamic to Jassekiel in that the girls totally have control of the relationship, and that the boys would argue a lot (probably more than Jake and Ezekiel would honestly), and then be extra when wooing to make up for it.
In my Eviarty post I highlighted the similarities and differences of Flynn and Moriarty, so you can read that there, but I think being together Flynn would subconsciously start imitating Moriarty in terms of poise and social ability (same for Floriarty too) but I couldn’t quite say if Moriarty would develop more of an ability to care about the interests of others by being together. I think having Eve and Flynn would make it more likely since they’re both caring individuals when it comes to the innocent bystanders they protect as much as they can, and it would definitely develop as a side effect of Moriarty wanting to please Flynn and Eve.
While I think Floriarty and Eviarty would be firey, but doomed relationships, the trio would balance out both of the main issues each has. Eve and Flynn would keep an eye on Moriarty (and instill some morality in him), and Eve would be able to keep the boys from fighting so much.
I keep thinking about Moriarty’s last interaction with Flynn in season 2. Why did Flynn suddenly get so compassionate for Moriarty? Obviously Eve was the main reason the boys put aside their petty bickering/slapping to stop Prospero (both of them were not going to disobey Eve), but it was still a huge change from that moment to when Moriarty “died.” I like to think that Flynn’s reason for being pissy at him (Moriarty trying to get Eve) finally got clarified to him, so he no longer had any reason to be angry, and maybe felt bad for being mean the whole season so he started showing Moriarty a bit of compassion for his situation, and if Eve was trusting him then well he should too.
While I don’t think they’ll bring Moriarty back, I’d love it if it they did. When they weren’t opposing each other, they got stuff done, and I think each brought something to the party, and had something they could help another with.
It’s not a very in depth analysis, partly because I’ve been at uni all day and my brain is tired, but it sums up my feelings about Fleviarty pretty well.
