uhh okay wow
This is kind of a weird one for me ‘cause I… really don’t have an OTP for this series.
I do one one sort of… odd ship, that I thought of, and honestly think it could somehow work and be really cute |D and that’s… Shifu/Soothsayer. I DON’T KNOW WHY I JUST… SEE IT FOR SOME REASON. And I don’t actually think they ever met though… so yeah… I have no idea. pffffffff—
Oh, and for non-romantic relationships, I like the sort of mother and son or older sister and young brother thing between Shen and Soothsayer. c: It’s so sweet.
I feel like I don’t really romantically ship anyone that much in canon, and I’m cool with that, rather like it being all platonic. And even with more hints of Po/Tigress, I could still read it as platonic, and still feel pretty platonic about the whole KFP-verse.
BUT I’M GLAD I’M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT OF/SORTA SHIP SHIFU/SOOTHSAYER. :D
Like I said on Skidoosh/KFP forum: “Shifu/Soothsayer (bonding over their poor screwed up kids—see off screen backstory on TVTropes.org and Kung Fu Panda wiki, Soothsayer was Shen’s nanny and practically raised him, and Shen never harms her and lets her go later; Shifu could probably still be annoyed by Soothsayer; Tai Lung and Shen’s brains would break)”
But yes, they never met, but I’m hoping they will in the next movie. And even though they haven’t met, I can still picture their interaction pretty well.
I <3 the familial relationship between Shen and the Soothsayer.
I’m about the same way too with shipping. PLATONIC HIGH FIVE EVERYONE!
I can see Shifu/Soothsayer, they’d be old and drink tea and sarcastically destroy anyone stupid enough to give them any crap. C:
I bet they have some adorable babies pictures of their failures
*high fives* KFP is too cool for shipping wars—sorry, have some awkward memories of the ones that’d plagued Avatar: The Last Aibender animated series fandom.
That’s so Shifu/Soothsayer.
the adorablest
