FlexibleShipping

FlexibleShipping is the belief that Melissa Zonzales and Ashley Cornelia belong in a romantic relationship. The pair met in astronomy class during their freshmen years of college and have been "more than acquaintices" ever since. The name stems from the fact that Ashley is flexible and shows off her flexibility to Melissa in Chapter 2 of the story when they are doing yoga.

Melissa's Evidence:

-In the first scene of Chapter 2, Melissa and Ashley are seen doing yoga together in Martha Book, this must mean that Melissa invited her over. Notice how she didn't invite Michelle or any of the others over - just Ashley.

-When Mapple is being attacked and Ashley went missing Melissa was running around frantically looking for her. When Jasper told Melissa that "they'd find Ashley on the way out", Melissa insisted that they stayed and searched for her right then and there.

-Melissa freaks out when she sees Ashley being taken away by Carol's minions.

-Immediately after Woodbriar collapses, Melissa races over to Michelle's room in Mockwell to tell her about it and seems quite motivated to find her when inside of West Hall.

-When Melissa receives the phone call from Ashley, she is so overjoyed that she bounces up and down.

-Perhaps the biggest piece of evidence of all, is in Chapter 13 of the story, where Melissa fully regains her memory at the sound of Ashley's voice coming to save her (despite having multiple flashbacks of Michelle while struggling to regain her memory - TAKE THAT ELEVATORSHIPPERS!)

Ashley's Evidence:

-At the beginning of the story, Ashley shows off her flexibility while Melissa is on the phone with Jasper, perhaps because she is jealous and wants to catch Melissa's attention.

-When Jasper goes to get his laptop fixed in Mapple Headquarters, Ashley stays behind to talk to Melissa.

-While being kidnapped by Carol's minions, Ashley screams out Melissa's name, even though both Melissa and Jasper were in Mapple with her.

-In Chapter 6, after Ashley discovers that she has her cell phone, she immediately calls Melissa to tell her that she is okay.

-While on the phone Ashley tells Melissa that she should "remember how flexible she is." Why?

-Ashley saves Melissa from Carol at the end of the story, screaming out, "Hey you! Get your hands off of my friend!" Melissa is overjoyed when she hears her voice.

Similarities:

-They both met and be-friended Michelle in astronomy class.
