ALL. OF. THEM.
So, what makes them such a beyond wonderful pairing? Let me tell you!
First off, both Oswald and Edward are both fully developing characters. Sometimes when écriture a couple one of the characters is plus developed and plus important to the global, ensemble storyline than the other character is. This makes the relationship dull and difficult to invest in. par developing both characters, Oswald and Edward are interesting whether they are in a scene together ou separately.
Second, they have inner conflict. We see Oswald learning what it means to fall in l’amour through his realization of his feelings, jealousy of Isabella, his betrayal of Ed and, ultimately, his sacrifice for Ed. Edward meanwhile seems to be conflicted par his budding romantic feelings for Oswald after the dock incident.
Third, the relationship isn’t just full of fluff. Oswald and Edward’s relationship is constantly put to the test through misunderstandings (recall when Edward pretended to side with Butch, as one example), their own personal flaws, betrayal, etc. Without the heartbreaking moments, the relationship wouldn’t feel realistic and would be boring. It’s through these trials that their happy and fluffy moments really shine.
Fourth, they are true soulmates. Oswald and Edward have no one to rely on but each other. And it’s through this reliance and friendship that both of them are able to grow into better versions of themselves. Oswald is able to learn how to truly l’amour another person and Edward is able to become plus confident and sure of himself.
Last, and perhaps most important, they started their relationship as Friends first. When they first met, there was no instant attraction. In fact, Oswald was a bit rude to Edward. It was only through Edward’s kindness that their friendship started and it developed through the montrer until the third season gifted us with the romance. The foundation of friendship is so refreshing to see when the vast majority of couples on télévision are physically attracted to each other first and develop the friendship later (or sometimes they don’t even bother with the friendship, which just boggles my mind).
Oh my Gosh, I l’amour them so much <33
