Oh, hmm, I can definitely see it and why other people do, but I got hooked onto Michael/Philippa from the start and then never really dropped it, since it’s all wishful thinking never-gonna-happen anyway, as long as it’s f/f and involving Michael.
I just liked the sense of history and the depth of the relationship between her and Philippa, I tend to go for that in my ships first, and then I tend to stay with the first ship. 😮
