Yeah I got your "TOUCHY!!" right here!

(I LOVE that pic! I want it on a t-shirt!)
LOL, I do love that pic too

It 's so wonderful... kinds like Lassie's pride after pegging Shawn with the baseball mitt
Though I call the above picture "Don't give us away in the police station, Shawn!" hiding of relationship

Just kidding... mostly.
Like I've said before, I don't expect there to ever be actual Shassie on the show... nor would I want it. It's the fun of fics and seeing people be able to realistically take what is on the show and create another world around it that I love so much. Whether that be Shassie or Gules or Lassiet... I enjoy fic because it often explores something that will never be seen in the show. Just like some fics (yours included) can explore more serious topics than the show would ever touch or that CAN'T happen because of the basic, underlying premise of the show.
I rarely read fic written for a "on-screen" couple because it's not as much fun. I like seeing how people get around those couples and stll write canon (or realistic off-shoots of) for pairings of other characters. ::shurgs:: And that's my soapbox on why I like Shassie and Gules and not so much Shules (though, I also am just the type of person who hates the "foregone conclusion" kind of relationships... where a couple seems like they're being written to "be perfect for each other". Basically, I like being in the minority for that kind of thing on purpose.)
But, yeah... I totally acknowledge that... in real-life Psych, there is an animosity between Lassie and Shawn that helps drive the show.
Doesn't keep me from seeing with my Shassie colored glasses (which, CLEARLY, Kell has as well...)
