What if the characters end up together? Cause in that scenario the sippers would be the ones who were right and were reading the canon correctly. Would you still think they are annoying?

Entirely offtopic: "sippers" is making me imagine sippy cups shipping reylo.

Yeah, because a ship becoming canon at the end of a series doesn't make it retroactively canon for the entire series - Rey and Kylo were never together in TFA, and they weren't together by the end of TLJ, but the obnoxious portions of the shipper camp are insisting that not only will they get together, they're currently together in canon and anyone who likes any other ship is doing it wrong.

Also they will be unbearably smug if their ship becomes canon, and smug people are always annoying.

Yeah, there've been a few recent cases of crack ships in my fandoms becoming canon. Doesn't mean they had basis when people first started shipping them. It was a nice but totally random coincidence for the shippers that their ships became canon.

Epistemic luck.

It would depend on a lot of things? This is a very counterfactual/hypothetical situation so it's complicated and I'm probably going to sound crazy.

I would probably still consider their behavior up to this point to have been annoying. I don't know if they would still be annoying in the future - I don't know how they'll act in the future - but, yeah, it wouldn't change my opinion of how they've been acting lately. Part of that is because I think they're annoying regardless of their rightness.

Part of that is because... like... Kylo and Rey ending up together is a possibility, right, and it has some chance of coming true, which we evaluate based on the strength of the available evidence for it, right? Right. But just because it ends up playing out a certain way, that doesn't necessarily mean that a reasonable person should have concluded that it would play out that way based on the evidence that was available at the time. Even if they later turn out to be right, I would still think that they were overstating their case as it stands right at this moment.

And then, a lot of it depends on how the resolution played out. If Rey and Kylo end up being together romantically and alive and without massive, significant sacrifices on the part of one or both, that would maybe prove Reylo fans right. But it's hard for me to see that being a good, satisfying ending, based on everything that's gone before. So it would be annoying on that level already.

But, you know, it's all good, really, this is just my personal feelings and reactions and nothing more than that.
