Okay, I'm not in this fandom so I hope I don't sound too out of place but... this lady is the guys wife and people hate her for getting away with another ship? I understand how him having a wife would kinda screw up the other ship and cause frustration, but that is a pretty shallow reason to hate her since the character has done nothing wrong.

The fun thing about shipping is that you can create AU or different scenarios instead of hating on stuff that gets in the way of canon status. Lots of ships are not meant to be canon, but that doesn't mean you can't have your fun without having to hate anyone.

Katrina is his wife, but shes also...in purgatory?? Or maybe dead?? Its anomalous mostly she just shows up in dreams bein cryptic, so think the idea is "lady u are dead and also shady let him move on"

She probably really is dead though. I mean can you see her being brought back into modern day too along with Ichabod? How would that happen? It would completely rearrange the dynamics of the show.

I'm actually hoping if she gets out of Purgatory she gets to go back to her own timeline and is given a real chance to raise their son. But even so she would have lived and died before Ichabod reawoke in Sleepy Hollow.

NAYRT

That's what I want to happen, tbh. I like the dynamics between the chatacters as it is.

She's not dead, just trapped. Ichabbie shippers want him to cheat on Katarina with her, which is wicked squicky

(Anonymous) 2014-01-03 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
I'm pretty sure her being in purgatory or being 'mostly' dead doesn't mean he would be cheating if he decided to get with Abbie. Or do you think people should be faithful AFTER death?

Because seriously, she's not alive. I like her a ton and would love her to be reunited with him somehow, but for right now she is as good as dead as far as wedding vows go.

Wasn't she trapped then when she was alive? Considering this show is about undead horsemen coming back to life, as well as previously dead patriots, I'm reallyyyy doubtful that Katarina can't/won't come back.

And to Ichabod, it's pretty recent. He wasn't aware of those few hundred years, so yes, he's going to still love his wife. And yes, it'd be pretty shitty of him to go, "Welp, guess I'll bang this chick now, ahhhh yeahhhh!"

Add in that Ichabbie shippers are just plain hypocrites as well as obnoxious, I just can't get onboard with that.

Okay, look, people are ALLOWED to ship things even if the ship isn't a) ever going to happen or b) probably not going to happen for a while or even c)no even plausible. Just because YOU don't like the ship doesn't mean everyone that ships it a) thinks Ichabod should suddenly forget about Katarina and/or b) hates Katarina.

Liking one dynamic (especially a dynamic which we SEE on screen more) over another doesn't make a person a hypocrite. And insisting on calling the Ichabbie shippers is just petty on your part and makes it clear that you're dismissing them as silly fangirls (seriously who even uses smush names anymore, I sure as hell haven't seen any shipper on my dashboard use it and I'm even talking about the under 18s).

Nothing is simply black and white. You are allowed to dislike the ship, that doesn't mean people that do ship it are somehow bad people. Get over your bad self.
