>>52882879yep, but that's what I'm saying, I've seen pearlfags post that exact scene as "evidence of their ship", saying that "they definitely like each other, they just need to realize it/grow up!"
in the end, shipping is about what you hope will come from what the show showed you, not about what the show actually showed you, in a way it's the same with pokéshipping and amour, too, mistyfags hope she'll confess or something and ride off into the sunset with him, and serenafags hope he'll reciprocate her feelings explicitly, much like pearlfags hope they'll "realize what they feel for each other is actually love" or whatever the fuck
