As far as I can see it - when it comes to Chimmy - everyone thinks it's only Chloe's fault for everything. How about we agree that both are to blame. If you believe Chloe is using Jimmy then why the need for them to be together? I honestly don't get that. Everyone is saying oh look Chloe is such a horrible person but Jimmy is a saint let's pair them up still. Jimmy deserved someone who isn't living a fast paced live like Chloe because that'll always come between them. I get that. I honestly do.
Perception is everything. When Chloe hugged Davis in Turbulence it was only because she was feeling sad.
My perception- Chloe: I'm worried that the life I lead hurt Jimmy.
From your response it seems that your perception is that Chloe hugged Davis because she wanted Jimmy to be jealous.
Jimmy went ahead and took it a completely different way. Chloe saw that Jimmy was going to murder Davis so she stopped him. What if she didn't arrive? Would you have rathered Doomsday kill Jimmy at that moment? Would you rather Jimmy go to prison? I don't even like Jimmy but I wouldn't even wish either on him. Tasering Jimmy actually saved his life at that moment. Chloe started off being worried about him (what kind of a person would she be if she left Jimmy when he was down) but look at the thanks she got in the end. Good intentions always ended badly.
Like I said - perception.
Davis wants Jimmy to get away from him because Doomsday may get control
Jimmy wants to hurt Davis because he didn't trust him. Actually I would go with jealously as the first reason but that's my perception. What did you expect Jimmy to be doing with that pipe? Poking Davis in the back? If Jimmy really wanted to be in the right, call the cops. And what did Jimmy tell Davis. It wasn't "you're a murderer and I'm gonna call the authorities" it's "You wanted Chloe all to yourself"
Chloe tasered Jimmy, not just to save Davis but to keep Jimmy from hurting himself. She went back to Jimmy soon after because she couldn't leave him like that. I didn't expect her to. But Chloe gets a kick in the face, everyone cheers and everyone stills cheering because they got back together and still saying "EPIC ROMANCE"
If I may be so bold I'm assuming your perception is:
Davis - Ahhh Jimmy. I'm gonna kill him
Jimmy - I'm the hero of this story. I shall avenge!!
Chloe - I'm a selfish ***** who only cares for Davis so I'm gonna taser Jimmy till his eyeballs pop. *sneaky sneaky sneaky*
I still believe in the connection between Chloe and Davis, from the moment they first met, the way they interacted and the feelings that began developing. Considering the Davis/Doomsday issue, whether Davis existed or not, Doomsday would still be wrecking havoc. What people fail to understand is that Davis was forced into this life because of what others expected him to be. What's the use of having him black out and not remember anything if the plan was not to show duality?
Did I miss the phonecalls? Actually I watched the entire season - over and over and over. Davis was calling Chloe because he needed help. If he was calling her to say "Chloe I don't want you to marry Jimmy" or arrived there as himself to stop the wedding then I would have agreed with you. Davis was staying away from Chloe as best as he could but still needing her. Doomsday was the one who took control and ruined everything. If Davis (not David) was really a cold hearted killer would he look so distraughted and disgusted everytime. I don't believe so.
I don't believe Chloe led Jimmy on as much as she wanted to believe that she wanted a life with him. I believe she wanted it to work but imo, they are incompatible. Both of them had secrets, issues and longings. They're both alike that's why they clash on so many levels. Chloe longed for Clark but settled for Jimmy because he was 'safe'. But know that her life with Clark and the superheroes formed a very integral part of who she is. Unfortunately Jimmy never seemed a part of that. Chloe was loyal to Jimmy but that life that he never got a foothold in always seems to get first preference. Jimmy saw that and always decided to be the first one to leave the relationship. What I don't get is the constant need to torture each other with going back and forth. I don't think anyone intented to 'use' anyone but when the 'stuff's being brewing for a while' it's gonna blow soon enough. And it did.
"Twisted outer shell" Nice. Yep that little boy who was caged, experimented on and thrown on into the streets was a twisted outer shell. I'll think about that the next time I see orphans on the street and tell them that they are worth nothing. Not everyone gets a perfect foster home life and Davis was one of the unlucky ones. However he devoted his life to helping others - at least that was the one thing he did of his own free will. He became an EMT, he suggested to Bette a place to stay because he has a friend who helps girls like her. That's the Davis I choose to believe in.
I get that even if Davis was not attached to Doomsday that people would still not like him. Because he threatens Chimmy. Somebody has to say it because everyone is walking around on eggshells. Oh let's rip into Chlavis every chance we get but Chimmy gets a free pass. Even before we knew (unless people maybe read spoilers before) that Doomsday was inside Davis, there was a need to discredit him - he looks like he could play and evil guy, oh look another love triangle.
Even if I agreed with you and said that Davis was bad, I still wouldn't ship Chimmy. I still think they were horrible for each other even if Davis never came on the show. When Chloe is with Jimmy she uses her head. She never uses her heart which is what she's always trying to protect. Jimmy uses his head too but when it's time to leave, his heart gets in the way. Davis is the only guy who actually uses his heart on the show. Everyone goes around guarding it, putting up barriers and defenses when there is probably just one person who tore down those walls. Actually before I was a Chloe/Davis shipper I was a Chloe/George shipper (Apocalypse) because the intention was to show how would the Chimmy relationship last if Clark never existed. I expected it to last - because Clark wasn't in the picture. But it did not. However I should not expect continuity from this show because look how that turned out. Chloe and Jimmy had a blurred screen between them - they saw each other but didn't actually see each other. I still believe Chloe was loyal to Jimmy but even if there was love it wasn't the kind of love I would expect if people want a honest relationship with each other.
That's all I'm going to say on this topic here. Goodday Humera
