Any thoughts?

The Sanvers "Kidtastrophe"

This is 100% purely my personal take/experience on the situation. I know not everyone is like-minded on this, but these were my thoughts as this hit real close to home for me.

I'm irritated by the handling of Sanvers' end on a PERSONAL level because it was just too rushed and kind of unrealistic. Yes, I know it's just a television show, but it (and Sanvers) holds a special place in my heart, so hear me out...

My wife and I have been together 5 years and married 4 years and had our first child this last April. I NEVER saw myself as a mother up until about 2 years ago and even then it was debatable. 3 YEARS into a relationship that I knew my wife adamantly wanted children when we first started dating. We loved each other so much after all we'd been through and helped one another cope with and she meant the world to me so badly that I was willing to at least stay open-minded. Something I felt maybe MAGGIE could have been a bit more of if ALEX meant that much to her!

I know that doesn't work for everyone and I respect that, but from my personal experience, over time, I saw myself warm to the idea of potentially having a family with this woman I loved and saw myself spending forever with. I always had it in my head, from horrific past experiences, that I wasn't worthy of being loved enough to make it that far into a committed relationship, let alone being in one AT ALL, so the concept of parenthood wasn't something I even considered for myself. Just wasn't a notion I could realistically entertain. Maybe something Maggie might have felt considering her checkered relationship history? Who knows, but I wouldn't change it for the world. I love my son.

So, for me personally, I found the Sanvers break simply too rushed especially after all the build-up they had. I know that things happen in the entertainment industry that may throw a wrench in the works, and YES, I am thrilled it wasn't ended by the stereotypical "bury your gays" trope, cheating, or moving away bit, but to get THAT fucking close to a wedding just to shitcan it for that reason...just felt unrealistic and too rushed to me. Considering HOW MUCH they mean to each other, all they'd been through and helped each other cope with, and not to mention how much had already gone into their wedding prep...yeah. No. A bump in the road like that could maybe warrant postponing the wedding a while while they figure out how they feel down the road as they ONLY just started discussing it a VERY short time ago. Give it more time and if they couldn't come to a compromise, end it then, ya know? Something I felt ALEX could have considered rather than say they can't be together at all considering how much MAGGIE means to her! See where I'm going with this? They were too quick to jump to conclusions. Relationships need time, communication, and sometimes compromise. If it simply can be resolved, then go from there.

No, I don't know right now how I would have handled the breakup if I were one of the writers, but that...that just didn't do it for me personally.

Chyler and Floriana performed it beautifully and it pained me, made me sob, and I respect and admire them both for their love and care of Sanvers throughout its short (canon) life, but I just can't buy that Alex would do that so suddenly and that Maggie would be so quick to disregard Alex's desire without giving herself time to mull it over more. Their relationship was really young. Like I said: it took me 3 YEARS.

Alex Danvers is my absolute FAVORITE character in ALL media, but the writers kind of did her (and Maggie) wrong. I will continue to watch the show as Alex is a strong, powerful, smart, and independent lesbian character I respect and will hope for great things for in her future (...and torture myself into hoping for a Sanvers reunion that may never come because they left the door open for Flo to return, GODDAMMIT, and I am THAT hardcore Sanvers trash).

tl;dr - Sanvers ended too suddenly over something like the concept of kids considering how developed their relationship was and as someone who experienced a VERY similar situation in their relationship, I just found it too rushed and not totally realistic for them as they were. Just my opinion and I know it won't be the same for everyone, but still they were just too quick to bail for my liking.

Sanvers HC♥️

Alex knows ASL (American Sign Language), she learned it as a safety net in case she was ever in a situation where she can’t speak she could still communicate. Not many people outside Kara and the DEO know about this, not even Maggie, until one day Alex arrives at the NCPD to pick Maggie up for a lunch date only to learn the detective is stuck trying to talk to a young girl who seemed to want nothing to do with any of the officers around her. Alex observed for a few minutes before she went to her detective girlfriend and put a hand on her shoulder with a soft smile and an ‘I got this one Sawyer.’ before she knelt down in front of the girl, gently getting her attention, before she started to sign. Maggie and the rest of the officers could only watch awestruck as the child smiled at Alex and started signing back. One of Maggie’s coworkers nudged her and stage whispered ‘that’s one hell of a girl you’ve got there Sawyer don’t let this one go yeah?’ that’s the night Maggie decides to go out and buy Alex a ring so her amazing girlfriend can become her amazing wife.

Sanvers Morning HC❣️

Maggie’s hair a very fine, despite how thick it looks, and so it is very prone to knots when she sleeps with it down. Before meeting Alex the detective would sleep with it in a bun to minimize the number of knots she’d have to fight in the morning but now she wears it down and has Alex do her hair for her because she swears her fiancé has a magic touch to gently get knots out without ripping her hair out. It’s not uncommon for Kara to stop by on weekend mornings to find Maggie sitting half awake in Alex’s lap while the DEO agent runs a brush through her fiancé’s dark hair with an elastic between her teeth for later use.
