Girl 1: "Okay, okay, so I was, once again, watching Top
Gun and I can't bring myself to ship Maverick and
Charlie! Like! There'
s no chemistry!"
Girl 2: "Really? Who do you ship then?"
Girl 1: "This is gonna seem odd, but I ship Maverick and Iceman so hard! They would've made a
perfect haters-to-lovers slowburn if the movie wasn't made in the 80's. You've got to watch it again and see the way they look at eachother! Heck, even look up videos of the ship!"
Girl 2: "Okay, fine. But that ship actually makes so much sense!"
