Shipping in general causes much controversy and arguments among fanbases.

This is why in the fanfic I wrote with my friend, we agreed on a hard rule: NO kissing, NO over the top romantic interaction of any kind, and romantic subplots are in the background of the story at best.
I think you two made the right call.

The storyline isn't about romance anyway. There was little need for romantic subplots, so the way you've kinda just written them into the background of the story and it's world has been well done, imo.

Yeah, poor Star Vs. The Forces of Evil... From what I've seen things weren't so pretty with the Starco and Tomstar shippers back in the show's hayday.
It's funny that you mention that, because that show is actually one of, if not the key reason why I've grown to dislike shipping so much.

The Starco ship became so forced and and prominent during the show's final season that it's genuinely one of the main reasons for it's massive decline in quality. The romantic drama subplots became the focus of several episodes, took away from the main story, made constant 180 turns that made no sense or at least made various prior turns of events feel completely unnecessary, and last but not least, it effectively killed the already highly questionable storyline the show's final season was heading in.

It was a major contributing factor to one of my favorite shows falling from grace, so yeah, I don't exactly take kindly to shipping in fandoms and fanfiction much anymore.

Cute! Um, see if you can add some color into her hands to make them stand out and add that same color to the end of her feathers so it doesn’t look out of place.
Can't believe I didn't think of that. Thanks! I'll do that tommorow, and I'll tag you then.
