My Top 5 Owl House Ships(Most to Least Fav)
My rankings:
Lumity:
Their relationship development was amazingly written- one of the best enemies to lovers stories. Seeing Lumity support one another and grow individually is so sweet. My favorite moment is their kiss in the S2 finale because it cemented how serious the relationship is and it was the first LGBTQ+ kiss on Disney, which is momentous in representation.
2. Huntlow:
I shipped as soon as they met each other. Willow and Hunter are such great support systems to each other- Willow helped Hunter grow as a person and Hunter sees Willow for the amazing person she is. My favorite moment with them was Hunter comforting Willow in “For the Future” because we see how much mutual care they have for each other.
3. Raeda:
Raine and Eda are so sweet together and a great team. I immediately fell in love with their dynamic and banter in Raine’s debut episode. My favorite moments are when they make music together and Raine protecting Eda from the draining spell.
4. Aladarius:
I most likely ship Aladarius because of my headcanon and the potential they have being a couple. I headcanon that Darius had a crush on Alador since their time in Hexside and was heartbroken when Alador and Odalia got married. I think Darius can bring out Alador’s confidence and self-esteem. Alador and Darius would make a really good couple.
5. Gustholomule:
I never cared for this ship until I saw fanart and rewatched scenes with them together which made me see the appeal. Their dynamic is fun so I think it can translate well to romance. I’m fine with them either being a couple or friends.
Hot take and rant under cut
Don’t get too mad pls I love all the ships just trynna make a point
genuine question but I feel like this isn’t said enough.
How come the whole “romance isn’t canon” shit is only relevant when it comes to Jesterdoll?.
Ragatha nods to Jax in a convo with Martha about crazy men and the Bunnydoll fans like to interpret it as rags considering Jax a husband or partner
Jax and Pomni do so much as stand beside each other in the teasers and the Funnybunny fans get excited
Abtragedy and Showtime just doing their thing I guess /lh silly
And all of that is fine, but the problem comes when Jesterdoll fans get excited over Pomni and Ragatha having a genuine moment together, and everyone starts saying “oh they’re just friends” “god forbid women be friends” “they’re just being nice to each other”
Its really invalidating, and to me, it’s putting down another ship because it interferes with your own.
And then the whole “there’s no romance in the show” argument gets pulled out when you could apply that to every single ship in this fandom maybe except for Checkmate
No ship is “more canon” than another because none of them are canon. If you get to have your own fun with your otp then let others have fun with theirs and be respectful of all ships <33 (that aren’t harmful or nasty in any way.)
barretxtifa
Gives nose/forehead kisses: Barret
Gets jealous the most: I feel like they both do.
Picks the other up from the bar when they’re too drunk to drive: Tifa. Barret’s a bit of a lightweight.
Takes care of on sick days: They both do, and Marlene likes to help.
Drags the other person out into the water on beach day: Tifa.
Gives unprompted massages: Tifa. Barret isn’t much of a masseuse due to the fact that one of his arms is made of metal, and it makes Tifa cold. Plus, Tifa gives really good massages.
Drives/rides shotgun: Barret drives, Tifa rides shotgun.
Brings the other lunch at work: Tifa. Barret sometimes purposely forgets to bring his lunch because Tifa’s cooking tastes best when it’s hot.
Has the better parental relationship: Neither. Both of their parents are dead. But I feel like both of them probably had good relationships with their parents back in the day.
Tries to start role-playing in bed: Barret. I picture Tifa not being the most adventurous person in bed.
Embarrassingly drunk dancer: Barret. Tifa thinks it’s hilarious.
Still cries watching Titanic: Tifa
Firmly believes in couples costumes: Tifa. Barret thinks the idea is really dumb, but he goes along with it because Tifa enjoys it.
Breaks the expensive gift rule during Christmas: Barret. He likes to spoil his girls.
Makes the other eat breakfast: Tifa. Barret is always in a bit of a rush in the morning.
Remembers anniversaries: They both do.
Brings up having kids: Marlene would mention it to both of them.
People need to understand one thing: not all ships contain sexual content in its core. Sometimes simple romance and tenderness is enough for some ships, goddammit!
