Show yourselves, Shannara Chronicles shippers! Be counted, and tell us who has you hot around the collar.

This week’s episode was so steamy that it made us curious about the shipping practices going on in fandom. And since the show has been on for five weeks now, we thought it might be a good time to check in with you guys and see where the general shipping opinions are falling.

Which means it’s polling time!

You can take a look below and see if any pairings in particular strike your fancy, or feel free to write in your own personal preference not listed here!

Amberle/Wil

Probably the most obvious ship of the bunch, and the show does seem to be setting them up to become an eventual thing. But that doesn’t always mean the pairing will be welcome in the fandom… We’re really curious to hear your thoughts on this one.

Bandon/Catania

Maybe the most precious and innocent pairing we’ll be mentioning, but definitely not the least interesting. How exactly would these two connect with Bandon’s powers causing such a barrier? It’s a good and interesting question to consider. One that could explore different types of love and how we accept our partners for who they are.

Catania/Amberle

Imagine these two growing up together. Catania being Amberle’s most trusted confident. Amberle learning not to abuse her position of power against Catania… The fic practically writes itself.

Wil/Eretria

This pairing is…complicated. Because although it might have begun with deceit and manipulation, an argument could be made that things have slowly been evolving. Particularly Eretria’s feelings toward Wil. This is another one we’re really interested to hear your opinions about.

Eretria/Amberle

Listen. Listen. This week was a game changer for anyone already shipping Eretria and Amberle. Who’s to say that all of Eretria’s jealous glances were directed at Wil? Maybe Amberle was the true target of those feelings… If you weren’t shipping it before, things might be looking a lot different for you now.

Ander/Tilton

There may be plenty of mixing and matching to be done with the kids of Shannara, but we can’t leave the grownups out of the shipping community! Besides, Ander and Tilton have had the most full frontal love making scene yet. Of course, we know this little love affair has come to an end, not to mention Tilton is now involved with Arion. But all of this plays into the drama and excitement of shipping!

Ander/Amberle

Probably the most taboo pairing we’re going to mention will be Ander and Amberle. Yes, there’s a pretty large age gap, and yes, technically he’s her uncle… But listen. There’s no rules in shipping and we’re making a point. Go with god everyone, this is a judgment free zone!

The poll

All right, this is where we want your voices heard. You can choose from the pairings listed above, let us know if you’re honestly not really shipping anyone at all, or you can write in a pairing we may have missed.

Amberle/Lorin didn’t make the cut because he dead, Tilton/Arion is a thing but we couldn’t list everyone, and the only reason we didn’t include Amberle/Wil/Eretria is because there isn’t a whole lot of shippy material to gif (yet). But these are all hand wavy semantics on our end. Shipping happens in the community and this is where you guys make the calls. Feel free to go wild!
