I'm a sarkney I admit it. But I voted for the second. I do think it's getting a bit boring with the whole S/V thing. I think we need to see Syd be strong again, course that was the Syd I fell for.
Also I would love to see her explore other things. And if it's other men, I'll love it. That doesn't mean I would mind if she ended up with Vaughn. Though I'll rather see her being strong and endipented.
I would love if the writers would explore the whole sarkney thing. Course there's definitely an interesting storyline there for sure. I think in order to getting S/V to end up together, it's easier if they're actually not together. Course on a show it just gets too damn boring.
I think it's frustrating that people dismiss the whole Sarkney thing. I mean those two have so much chemistry and I so would love to get that explored for the fun of it.
I have never had anything against S/v. But I think sometimes the alias fans focus too much on the romantic relationship. People are nuts for S/V. But s/v is not what makes alias great. And the character of Vaughn works better as a good guy. They are definitely making him a bit darker now, which is okay. But do we have to see Syd sad every minute.
So my answer is the second one. I'm a sarkney and I do not mind if S/V end up together, but they need to be a little apart. That's my answer.
