Ellie Charney Yes!! No matter what anyone says, Sophie and Keefe are perfect for each other. I mean, both have suffered heartbreak beyond comparison (Sophie had to give up her first family, Keefe's dad ignores him and Lady Gisela is just awful), and plus, Sophie has learned so much from Keefe, like how to hide behind humor. They always make each other feel better, and what has Fitz done? He's the Golden Child in the Golden Family, and sure, his brother's a jerk, but let's face it, that hit Biana way harder than it hit him. Also, what's the deal with Fitz mooning over Linh? Sophie deserves someone loyal, kind, funny, adventurous, etc. But he also can't be perfect (cough* Fitz* cough), and has to be able to come to Sophie with everything. Add all those together, and what do you get? KEEFEEEEEEEEEE.
Edit: (LEGACY SPOILERS) It happened. Fitz has exploded. After learning that Sophie wouldn’t be registering for the Match because she wouldn’t reveal her mom’s identity, Fitz literally exploded. He said it was HIS choice, too. It wasn’t up to Sophie. Someone else should decide, but no, not Sophie, because this was Fitz’s decision, apparently. No. It’s not. This is Sophie’s life. Not his. Sophie’s. And if you’re going to sit around moaning and then expect FORGIVENESS from her, then you’re wrong. Sophie deserves much better.

Gabriella Oh yeah! Team Foster-Keefe is WAY better than Fitzphie. Fitz is such a jerk!
Kaelyn OF COURSE. Prediction: Sophie doesn't tell Fitz about her unmatchability (we all know this is gonna happen). Fitz finds out weeks later and blows up. Eventually, he comes around, but the damage has already been done, and this time it's permanent. They break up. Keefe comforts her, and she finally (FINALLY) admits to herself her feelings for him.
Sarah I am so sorry. But no. (please don't maul me) I do think that Sophie deserves better than Fitz, but think about it. He was the first person who ever really cared about her (besides Alden and Della) when she first came to the elvin cities. He risked his family's reputation and legacy by going and looking for her ALL OVER THE WORLD MIND YOU. He loves her just the way she is, alicorn and all. I know a lot of you guys have your own opinion about it but please don't try to change anybody's mind because you think that Fitz has "anger issues" and is "too perfect."
EDIT: okay never mind. i’m tired of fitz and i think them breaking up was such a good idea. i’m not all in for Keefe but would be very happy if that’s where she ended up!
Loria Ruewen GO TEAM-FOSTER-KEEFE!!!!!!!!!! I really really really really really really really really hope that Sophie breaks up with Fitz or the other way around or something and she ends up falling in love with Keefe
Aҽɾιαʅ Dყɳαɱιƈ Sophie has shone way too many signs of liking Keefe for her to just ignore him to be with Fitz, her feeling for Keefe never really went away even after he went to the Neverseen.
AnnabethChase Team Foster-Keefe for the win!!!!
Viny Shadow Really hope that Foster and Keefe will be a thing , in my opinion, they suit each other way more better !
jpnmusings Nah. Everything is just as it was always meant to be. ;) #Sophitzreigns
Sadie Yes!!! I have always rooted for Keefe and Sophie. Everyone is supporting Sophitz but I just can't get past the awful way Fitz treated her in Exile after Alden's mind broke. It was never Sophie's fault but he was a total jerk to her and Sophie didn't deserve it. TEAM KEEFE
Keefie I know! Keefe is way better for Sophie and here's why.
1- How many times has Sophie called Keefe hot/handsome in her head?
2- Keefe obviously has a crush on her
3- Keefe is the humour to her seriousness!
4- Keefe. Just Keefe.
5- Fitz is a huge dirtbag and is never there for her in Legacy.
6- Sophie and Keefe just understand each other
7- Sophie might not realize it, but there's obviously a reason why she likes to spend so much time with Keefe in Legacy and how many times has she chosen Keefe over Fitz?
8- We've tried Fitzphie. It didn't work, so MOVE ON, Sophie!
9- I might be totally crushing on Keefe tho. ;)
10- Once again, c'mon. Without Keefe, this story would be dull. He makes it hilarious and keeps me reading!
How does Keefe manage to keep his love a secret from Sophie when she enters his mind, btw? Oh, and also... All you Fiztphie lovers, don bother hating me; I HATE U MORE!
Cora YESS!!! Sophie and Keefe's relationship is actually deep on an emotional level, where they share secret and comfort each other, whereas Fitzphie is just Fitz smiling and Sophie blushing. Fitz also has a tendency to lose his temper and blame Sophie for everything that goes wrong, but Keefe has always been caring and supportive of Sophie!
Katie F. Ahhhhhhh yesss. SoKeefe will forever and always be my OTP. They are just so cute together!!
Catherine I'm for Sophitz. :)
Camille J Sokeefe!!!!!!! I think it it should be Sokeefe, because Fitz seems to perfect and both Sophie and Keefe are flawed.
Leilani #teamfitzphie will ALWAYS win!! Team Fitzphie!!!!
Kana Cukier Yes, Team Foster-Keefe!!!!!!!!
AUBREY FosterKeefe10 Team Foster-Keefe for Life. I have no clue why Shannon messenger let Sophie end up with fitz.
By O. Of course. Did anyone forget what Keefe said?: What you think you feel in your head is not the same thing that you actually feel in your heart. And Sophie is so convince that she likes Fitz (I mean, don't blame her, Fitz is cute and he is her first crush), but her first instinct is to protect Keefe, and since he already read her feelings at the end of Lodestar (and it seems like they were good news for Keefe) there is no doubt the ALL the books are being a very-well-done base for Team Foster-Keefe (and Fitz is a jerk, not that should matter but instead). Fitz will be so stress out about the matchmaking status of Sophie, while Keefe will show that he doesn't care about it... and THAT will make the diference (but Sophie already likes Keefe, even if she don't want to see it).
Maddie YESSSSSSS. Keefe needs sophie. No fitz. Fitz has a perfect life. keefe is ignored.
Penelope Yesyesyesyes. They should because Keefe is always underrated, and you can tell he loves Sophie sooo much. When he teases “fitzphie,” he sounds so sad.
Sarah YES! I totally think that she was just trying to torture us by putting her with Fitz
Delilah Anderson If you look at the cover sophie is barely holding Fitz hand where as with keffee she is full on holding his hand.
Amy Thomas I NEED KEEPHIE IN MY LIFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE he is so much better than Fitz. ReaderGirl makes a good point and it doesn't make it good that Fitz was the first one to "care" about her, or that everything is meant to be.
Keefe is way nicer to her than that jerk Fitz. I hope she was just making it a more dramatic story by adding Fitzphie *I actually just shuddered when I typed that* into the book. SHANNON IF YOU ARE READING THIS PLEASE MAKE KEPHIE HAPPEN.
Book of Roses I love Fitz, but I am 100% Team Foster-Keefe!
number one meow meow Yup! FOSTER KEEFE 4EVER!
Maren You know, my friend keeps saying Fitz will die and that's what's going to solve the triangle.
Mhychy DUDE YEEEESSSSSS!!!
Goofygirl323 Of course!.................................................
Suzzie Definitely, so far Fitz and Sophie is a couple but that just doesn’t make sense. all Fitz have done was get upset at Sophie when Alden’s sanity broke, while Keefe has actually helped Sophie through the time when she had the echo.
WeAreHuman YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES TEAM-FOSTER-KEEFE!!!!! Everybody keeps saying that Sophie and Fitz are the same so they should be together but that is the reason they shouldn’t be together because they don’t help each other in their weak spots but Keefe does with Sophie since they are practically the opposite person, SOKEEFE FOREVER!
Aryl Nehc I think that Fitz and Sophie will end up just being friends, and Keefe will end up with Sophie, because Keefe is so much better developed.

*SPOILER ALERT!!!!* You are entering spoiler territory, do not read on if you haven't read Flashback!!!

You can see his feelings better and it just seems like he NEEDS Sophie. Fitz's relationship with Sophie is the tiniest bit toxic, as well. I mean, if he truly loves her, then why would he be so ready to blame her for Alvar's escape from Dex's trap just because of her pin blocking the signal? He also seems too angry about Alvar: He was ready to KILL Alvar, for goodness' sake!
Mercy Diaz Sry, but I am Fitzphie all the way
Eoz I just need to wonder, how is Shannon Messenger going to resolve all of the romantic stuff? because when Sophie ends up with Keefe, all of the fitzphie fans will be pissed, so how will it work out? cuz I swear if Sophie ends up with Fitz, I will burn all of my kotlc books. Also, if you look on the inside cover of legacy, it shows a drawing of Sophie and Keefe together, and Fitz on the side, looking sad. or at least my copy does. I think that It is basically impossible for Sophie to end up with Fitz because Shannon Messenger already revealed that Keefe likes Sophie. SO I neeeeeeed the 9th book to come out asap so that Sophie and Keefe can like finally kiss, and then Fitz will see them and be super sad. But I just think that it's impossible for Sophie and Fitz to end up together.
Tris |"I'll leave the morrow for the morrow. Today is enough and more."| Prior Team keefe all the way!
sure fitz was her first friend but he keeps blowing up at her then doing nothing but pulling the cute boy act and asking for forgiveness. on the other hand keefe helps Sophie and supports her. she needs someone who won't turn on her when times are tough! TEAM FOSTER KEEFE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sokeefe_fangirl Yes! I read this book and it was disappointing. It is still good that fitz and sophie broke up because now keefe has a better chance getting sophie. Also I think sophie knows what is right for her because when fitz asked if they wanted to be boyfriend and girlfriend she said no.
Anna Kate Oh My Gosh yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Foster-Keefe is literally the best thing in the whole world! I've shipped them since day one! I know a lot of people ship fitzphie, but there is no doubt that Keefe treats Sophie waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Fitz does. #teamfosterkeefewillalwaysbecooler
I will never change my mind!
Salena YESSSSSSSS! Keefe is endgame I think!
18BlueberryQueen NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Stephanie (Luna) Hu Sorry, I'm on Team Fitzphie.
Morgan H YES YES YES YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
KEEFE ALL THE WAY!
Eve Have you ever noticed there's a pattern with the books? The first book was Sofitz, second one was Keephie, 3d book Sofitz, and so on and so forth. The sixth book was Keephie, and the 7th book was Sofitz, so I think the next one will be Keephie!
Kent Barnard Fitz was never right for Sophie! You know it will be Keefe or no one!
Plus Biana and Dex!
HL team foster-keefe is WAY better than fitzphie!!!!!! Fitz is a jerk.
Benjamin Urbanski Sophie and keefe will be together at the end. It is the prediction of all "intelligent" people after reading the first book.
Kat KEEFE AND SOPHIE ARE WRITTEN IN THE STARS!!! <3
Tj Fry Yes they are perfection and above all everything!!!!!!
Forget Fritzphie
Hadley I totally agree! Have you seen the memes and photos of #Team Foster-Keefe? So much better than Fitzphie!
Read-Write-Sleep I was all for Fitzphie, but then I read Legacy and Fitz is a jerk, but I still didn't like Keefe much. Then I reread a few of the previous books and now I am all for Team Fother-Keefe.
MagnificentM Team Foster-Keefe is awesome!!!!!!!!!! Keefe is sweet and funny and adorable with Sofie (also WAY more interesting!) GO TEAM FOSTER-KEEFE!!!!! I don't care what Shannon Messenger writes I am a loyal Foster-Keefe fan to the end!!!!
: )
Wendy YESSSS!!! TEAM FOSTER-KEEFE FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!! GO TEAM SOKEEFE!!!!!
Tabitha J no. please don't judge me but i am holding out hope for fitzphie
Reader !!SPOILER ALERT!!

YESSSS!!!! Fitz is like SUCH a jerk! He just cares about him being the golden boy, trying to keep himself in a good rank. First of all, lets face it. He's FORCING Sophie to find her biological parents because he wants to be high up! Sophie should not have to be forced! KeeFEEE
Annabel Wolfe YES!! Sophie and Fitz were cute in the first book, but I highlighted/ documented cute moments with Fitzphie and cute moments with Sokeefe. There were cute moments with Fitz, so I was ALL for Fitzphie for the first half of the book. And then Sophie met Keefe. 😭🥺❤️🥺💍🥰 Keefe and Sophie just CLICKED together like magnets. And while Sophie and Fitz clicked too, it was considerably less, and it was forced. ALSO: FITZ WAS ALL OVER LIHN. LIKE BRO??? I have a theory...... Fitz is mostly interested in power over personality. He met the *most powerful* elf in existence, and he was all over her. He literally FORCED Sophie into liking him. And he STILL lost his temper all the time. And as soon as he saw Lihn's power and control over water, he couldn't take his frickin eyes off of Lihn. Keefe never- and I mean NEVER- loved anyone other than Sophie. ALSO. THERE. WERE. SO. MANY. CLUES. AND. HINTS. THAT. SOPHIE. LIKED. KEEFE. Lord Cassius literally said (and I quote) "You may hide these feelings from yourself, but you cannot hide them from me." HE SAID AS HE WAS TALKING ABOUT KEEFE!!!!!! I can't even count the sweet moments that Sokeefe had..... and they had so much in common! 1: They cared about everyone else over themselves. In the big Exile heist, Sophie pulled out her biggest piece of bribery that she had over the council. She could have mad it out alive with most of her team, but she sacrificed Kenric's cache to save everyone. Keefe joined the Neverseen to work as a double agent because he thought he could help Sophie. He cares so much about her, just the way he acts when they're alone is enough to make me want to melt ❤️❤️. And like Keefe said:✨ TEAM FOSTER-KEEFE WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER ✨
Ben Müller I stopped reading this series around when Sophie and Fitz started dating because I just couldn’t stand it.
Charlie NO. Sophie doesn't need either Keefe or Fitz for a boyfriend.
Fitz:
-Has Anger Issues
-Is an over all jerk
-Left his brother to die
-A better character for Fitz would be if he was gay
-The only thing that Sophie likes about him are his eyes I mean what the heck?!?

Keefe:
-110% Self absorbed
-Obsessed with his hair
-The only good thing about him is his bodyguard Ro.
Rhea Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fitz was a jeeeeeerk is legacy. #teamfosterkeefewillalwaysbecooler
Tanyyya I don't know, I have a theory for Sophie and Keefe being half-siblings.
Mace Yes, I was actually on the Fitzphie side, but after I read this I just knew that I had to root for them.
Anonymous This book is king of boring. This is the slowest and boring est book I’ve ever read the sky fall series is much better. I mean Sophie and fits haven’t even made out yet. What’s the point of reading the book!?
Judy Zhu Always! Since the first book!
Kelsie Varner I can see both sides because will Fitz does have anger issues he try's to help Sophie in many ways. Fitz does make mistakes but as a lot of you pointed out he is the Golden Boy... he has never had many kinds of struggles with makes it that much harder. Keefe on the other hand has had struggles and has always been there for Sophie. He also try's everything he can to take some weight of her soldiers. You also have to look at it from Sophie's point of view.... she does not get the Elvin world. she is also trying to finger out her own feelings. well I love both Fitz and Keefe I'm leaning more to the Keefe side because he always makes Sophie happy unlike Fitz who sends Sophie mixed messages. at one point he calls her his sister, that was a few books ago though.
Tj Fry Yes they are perfection and above all everything!!!!!!
Forget Fritzphie
Sorath Go onto Instagram and then search up marellaesthetics she has some really awesome conspiracy theories and arguments for sokeefe.
Kotlc/Games yes of ccourse
