They're the only Disney couple I've (accidentally) run into smut of and not had a gut reaction of squick for, so.

SA

Not to say that Disney ships are inherently gross, just that I can't ship characters for stuff I watched as a kid without feeling weird.

A thought: is it because it's a fairly recent film, and thus further removed from your childhood? I'm going off the assumption that you're in F!S's average age demographic of late 20s-early 30s, ie, people whose childhood was during the "Disney Renaissance" of the 1980s-90s. So approaching Tangled from an adult perspective only doesn't tie into childhood associations of the material.

I was an adult when Tangled came out, I think.

Also what about shipping people in a non-porny way?

I don't know if they're my favorite, but they feel the most real to me. Not knocking classic and renaissance era Disney, they're great! But they tended towards a very idealized fairy tale feel, and while that's certainly present in Tangled, they seem to have taken a page out of Dreamworks' book and made the characters slightly more goofy and flawed, like actual people.. Again, not saying that's not present in the classics and 90s films, but it's a step further in Tangled. Or at least there's something to it that FEELS a bit more real. But that might just be me.

lol it's true, though this is exactly what makes them one of my least favorite Disney ships for exactly all the same reasons

Not a fan of the Dreamworks style?

I don't feel like they're Dreamworks-y at all. They do feel more real than classic Disney couples, but I don't know... some of the nineties couples felt pretty genuine to me?

Same here. I really didn't expect liking them as much as I ended up doing.

They aren't my favorite, but they're cute.

They aren't my favorite official Disney couple, but they're definitely in my top five. They are seriously adorable together!

They're not my favourite couple but they are cute.

But what is the secret?

They are adorable and possibly my favorite too. <3 Definitely up there. I read a really good long post-canon fic of them a while ago. Also Eugene/Flynn is the only Disney "prince" who I find attractive.

Do you happen to have a link to that fic? I'd love to read it if you do!

Link please!! It's been ages since I last read a good Tangled fic.

Was that What You Don't Know by Airplane? I remember loving that fic years ago, it was the only good post-canon one I came across. If not, please link me?

I loved them! Especially because I liked both characters equally. In most other Disney movies, one character was a lot more interesting to me than their partner.

They're not my favorite Disney couple, but they're adorable together and I do love the pairing. Flynn is my favorite Disney prince though. He's fun.

Mine, too. And this is the movie and couple that led me to being ok with Disney porn (so long as it's between the humans and they are of age, mind).

They are the only Disney couple, other than Shang and Mulan, that I can imagine reading smutty fic about, FWIW.

(Though I haven't so far. Any recs?)

Now that I think about it, they're probably my favorite couple too.

Hey everyone has their favorites.

Mine are Tiana/Naveen and Jasmine/Aladdin

Why is this a secret? They're adorable and lovely. They're my favorite as well. :)
