Small rant about Spy x Scout, aka tf2 incest, be warned.
I ship SpyScout, not because of "Father son incest🤤🤤🤤🤤 old man preys on son" nah uh, I ship it because of the dynamics, the more realistic ones.
Starting off: Spy is an avoidant, he has severe commitment and avoidant issues. He sleeps with women, probably leaves em with a kid (like he did to Scout's mother) and goes poof. Right? Like if he genuinely falls in love with a lady, he just dips. He just cant do it. While Scout is the total opposite, hes a very clingy guy and seems like an anxious attachment. Do u see where Im getting at??
Whenever Scout gets too close to Spy, like, is too sappy, emotional or lovey dovey, Spy just pushes him away. It's different to when he's being sappy, because hes lowkey a hypocrite like that. And when Spy distances, Scout only chases after him, like tries to win him back by being more loving. Which yk, only makes spy distance himself more.
Their relationship would be very messy, even ignoring the incest factor, it would be all hurt, little to no comfort. Spy is an asshole who cant let himself be vulnerable, while Scout is TERRIFIED of Spy leaving him and stuff.
Realistically, this shit would NOT work out well, or be healthy just like most if not all of tf2 ships.
Ahem incest part: Spy would definitely feel guilt, how could he not? Even if he abandoned his son since birth, even if he wasnt there to watch his boy grow up, to form a father and son bond with Scout, he still feels icky about it, because at the end of the day that is still his biological son, his flesh and blood. While Scout, if he don't know, he would feel a bit weird when he thinks of Spy as a father of sorts yk, cus daddy issues, not knowing that is lowkey his dad. BUT if he did know, thats a while other story, for the sake of me I'll worry about it later.
Summary: Spy x scout is a very interesting ship if you look deeper. Avoidant x anxious attachment. And the fact that Spy wasn't there for scout to get that fatherly feeling to him, and more but its 2 am in tired,okay bye.
