coprime: two game-obsessed, winning-obsessed nerds (ships that I ship)

Canon: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
Pairing: Flint Lockwood/Sam Sparks
Canon Level: Dating

They're so cute together! They're both giant nerds, and they are giant nerds who support each other in their nerdery. And while I am all for people being enthusiastically into something and enthusiastically into each other, the initial reason Flint and Sam stole my heart was because of the makeover scene. The one where the nerdy girls lets her hair loose and puts in some contacts and wears some makeup and now all of a sudden she's super attractive? Yeah, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs does that scene except Sam puts pulls her hair into a high ponytail with a scrunchie and puts on big, square glasses and Flint is just in awe at her new look. My heart melted, and I think that scene is one of the most romantic scenes I have ever seen because the ponytail and glasses is who Sam was before she changed herself in order to stop getting picked on, and that is the version of Sam that Flint falls head over heels for. I would like Flint and Sam even without that scene because nerds dating is great, but they probably wouldn't make me draw little mental hearts in the air at the thought of them together were it not for that one particular scene.
