there is a DIFFERENCE between two characters who just hate each others guts and are abusive and bad for each other and two characters who are RIVALS and are LOCKED in BATTLE but have a DEEP SEATED RESPECT FOR EACH OTHER and MIXED FEELINGS and perhaps even some FONDNESS? some TENDERNESS?
Batman and joker vs Doofenshmirtz and Perry the Platypus
this post was about the enemies to lovers trope but i evidently did not make that explicitly clear so when i checked my notes and saw this reply i genuinely thought you were suggesting that doofenshmirtz and perry the platypus are the DEFINITIVE enemies to lovers ship and it fucking devastated me.
Are you saying they’re not?
