Yeah, the DCTV and even CW model as a whole is really great at creating a whole ton of fun characters, their whole model is to churn out fun genre shows with pretty people, they rely on people shipping and engaging to the level they do. I think with both those characters, it was kind of tough because they were love interests that didn’t really appear for too long, so it was expected that fandom would eventually move on, but of course as fans it would suck.
I very much understand not being able to move on from Nyssara, honestly, as super cute and appealing as Sara/Ava is and how much I would LOVE to be all up in that content, but I just can’t and have given up trying. But, I also don’t feel that angsty over Nyssara and Nyssa never moving on and what could have been. Sometimes when things are so blatantly affected by BTS decisions, they lose their weight with me (and then of course sometimes it’s the opposite, where people making awful decisions for Certain Reasons hits harder, but luckily for me this wasn’t one of those times). Maybe in different circumstances and different times, things could have been different. It’s to Nyssara’s credit that they had such little actual time but managed to be as popular and enduring a ship as they were.
