Tempted to ship Maggie and Negan simply because it’s dark and Problematic, and the new order of fandom is far to puritanical for my tastes. In the old days, we shipped enemies all the time. It wasn’t fraught with moral signaling and some 22yo yelling at you on the internet and calling you a Bad Person. It was a fantasy, and we had fun. >:)
sometimes i think maggie should... not get over, but like. start to move on from what negan did to glenn and then i remember how horribly glenn died and the sounds he made while he was dying and i'm like oh. nvm. they should still hate fuck tho
"The end of episode six, we've got this split screen kind of image where Maggie and Negan are almost, like, sharing a face. And, to me, that kind of is the larger metaphor for what's happened in this season, is these two people who started out so far apart, and in coming together, they've started to understand one another, and they're starting to see that, you know, there is this way out. It's probably a long way off, but it has to be through each other." – Eli Jorne
