aroace sky & alex: some thoughts on (my view of) skylex
hey guys. hey. hi. im thinking about them again so i need to immortalize my thoughts on tumblr dot com for all to see
discord people have already seen this and forever shoutout to anxiousasalex for opening my eyes to the wonderful world that is aroace alex!! you are my hero and hearing your thoughts on it has genuinely been amazing, thank you forever and ever <3
ive also already written partially about aroace alex in a few fics so sorry if this is redundant but i wanna talk about it in my own words without having to have the characters themselves explain it in terms they dont really have and wouldnt admit to. so. yeah.
both sky and alex are aroace to me, but their romantic relationship is, to me, still an important part of what they mean to each other. and i know that the books spin it in a very explicitly romantic way, but hear me out... (this'll be a long post. sorry.)
Alex Character Analysis-Book Three Part Two
Now it's time to discuss Sky and the romance side of this book. We haven't really gotten romance as the main focus of a character's arc in the series before this book, and this one does two (and a half if you count Carina and Sean): Lani and Samheed, and Alex and Sky. Alex is (as always) a mess, and that leads to some interesting issues.
First off, a bit of a disclaimer. I love the headcanon/theory of Alex being aroace. It’s a completely valid reading of his character. Also, it adds a lot to his character arc and his consistent struggles to maintain a romantic relationship. However, both Alex and the books themselves treat his relationship with Sky as romantic. So that’s how I’m going to treat it (even though I like them as a qpr more tbh).

Rating Unwanteds ships
Note: this is just my opinion and I do not mean to offend anyone, you can ship whoever you want to ship, it does not effect me. This is just for fun and my opinion.
Sky x Alex: 6/10 Why: so in general I don’t think Lisa McMann is good at writing romantic relationships in general. She, in my opinion, does not understand how to do ‘show and not tell’ when it comes to writing romance.
This ship, while interesting in idea, does not do so well in execution. Lisa McMann most of the time has to tell us that Sky and Alex like each other and they spend most of their time going on a will they won’t they. It drags on for such a lone time and it is a bit annoying. Still, if I had to give it one thing, it’s cute and when they have cute moments, I can’t help but smile.
Kaylee x Aaron: 6.5/10 why: Just like Sky and Alex, good idea but poor execution. I understand that it was the last book and Lisa McMann had to do a lot of things in onto a few pages, when Kaylee and Aaron did interact, it was mostly told to us then shown. What makes me like ships is the chemistry they have. Kaylee and Aaron didn’t have as much chemistry as I’d wish. Though, they get slightly more points because they don’t do will they or won’t they. I also like the idea of Aaron finding someone who doesn’t immediately have bad impressions on him and doesn’t expect the worst.
Sam x Alex: 5.9/10 Why: I can see it. I’ve always seen them more as friends but if Lisa McMann went on twitter and said that they got together, I wouldn’t mind at all.
Lani x Sam: 5/10 Why: Again, LOVE THE CONCEPT, HATE THE EXECUTION. I love the concept of them getting close while they are stuck on Warbler and having a connection they can’t have with anyone else. However, we barely see them interacting after book three. At least with Sky and Alex and Kaylee and Aaron we got bits of them being cute.
Lani x Alex: 3.5/10 Why: I see them more as friends, if you were talking to me when I first read book 1, I’d say they were cute. Reminds me of puppy love. Innocence before the storm. But again, they are just friends .
Lani x Meghan: 7/10 Why: I don’t remember as much as interactions between the two, but the ones I do, they are cute. These two are cute. Again, if one day Lisa McMann said on twitter they are dating one day, I wouldn’t mind it.
And if you are wondering about Unwanteds Quest ships, my friend read the books before me and personally told me not to read them. She said they were bad and ripped the pages from her books(she got in big trouble for this), so I’m going to keep the good memories I have of this series and not read them.
