Part 1 of Shirbert & Rivamika Parallels
Okay so @gilly-bj said in a post: "the only Gilbert I could think about was Gilbert from Anne of Green Gables and I noticed that RM has parallels also with Gilbert x Anne so... nothing just wanted to share my discovery with you ;)"
Do we all have the same ships 😂 swear to god we’re cut from the same cloth. Imma just say it, RivaMika shippers are fucking intellectuals, big brains. I noticed a lot of my ships parallel each other, so here's me paralleling them.
Shirbert is the OTP of all OTPs everyone. My God was I obsessed with this ship since I was young watching 1980s Anne of Green Gables. And again in 2018 for Anne with an E. And when Season 3 came out, that was a blast simultaneously theorizing and clowning (exp. the pen). If you haven't watched Anne with an E, I highly you do so, it has so much heart to it. Shirbert is one of my few ships that is actually canon, and I was literally a mess when I witnessed the moment they got together: my family paused the TV cause I was jumping for joy, turning red, laughing and crying. Shirbert is the motherfucking blueprint of
Rivals to Lovers, Slow Burn Romance
here are a few parallels from the top of my head:
Starting off on the wrong foot (Source: RM)
(mayhaps in one of her imaginings Mikasa was doing this to Levi)
The Hostility (Source: AG, RM)
(edit: changed AWAE gif cause this one fits much better. Anne's words are quite laughable cause it is the complete opposite of how things panned out for Anne or Mikasa. How I love irony and using hate as a front for enemies to lovers.)
The Staring, The Pining (Source: RM, x)
(Super sad there's a 10 image limit :(((. I didn't fully realize how much RivaMika stared at each other. And that would take up so much space lmao. So here's:
So do you agree? And were there parallels I forgot? Feel free to add them. Let me know what you think. (I spent far more time then I care to admit on this so I hope you enjoyed it.)
