♥ SOPHIES ♥
Rory Gilmore and Logan Huntzberger Appreciation Thread

What is Sophies?
This is a play off of Logan's "Master and Commander" comment to Rory for what she should call him in episode 5.03, Written in the Stars.

Master and Commander is the first of Patrick O'Brian's novels about Jack Aubrey. Sophie is the square-rigged ship that Aubrey is Master and Commander of, and those who crew in her refer to themselves as Sophies. It is the ship where Jack Aubrey first makes his name.

So, it is in this spirit that those who ship the Master and Commander and His Lady are known as: Sophies.

Special Shipper List

1. Amy Sherman-Palladino
   
   And he’s done some things for Rory that on the surface seem kind of bad, but I think in the end, are very good. Because Rory was very subdued and needed to tap into a strength in herself that maybe she wasn’t doing so much, because she has a very strong mom and strong friends. She never really had to do that. She never really had to dig down deep and find out who she was. And this guy made her have to do that. So when you talk about it on that level, there could be more them.
   
2. Dan Palladino
   
   Rory is dating a guy who -- Rory is a one-guy girl, very stable, and she’s dating a guy who’s not very stable. And that’s always a part of their relationship. Now, they may get married at some point and live together for 50 years, but that instability is always going to be there, because they’re different people who need each other for some reason
   
3. David Rosenthal
   
   Rory's going to try to engage in a long-distance relationship. He's going to be in London; she's going to be in college. Obviously, it's a very challenging and difficult thing, and it's going to present obstacles for the two of them. But they're very much in love, so they're really going to work hard to make it work.
   
4. Emily Gilmore
   Richard! Picture his blond hair and her blue eyes on a little baby! (5.20)
   
5. Richard Gilmore
   Now I don't want to be too forward, but you made a handsome couple (5.10)
   
6. Honor Huntzberger
   When Logan said you two broke up, I almost threw a lamp at him. (6.10)
   
7. Chris Hayden
   Listen, I want you to know that I like him. I like him, and I like you, and I like you and him together. (6.19)
   
8. Lorelai
   You know, I'm glad to see you doing so well with Logan. I'm happy that you're happy (7.13)

Rory: no, that's not the issue. I mean i know how to work the system. Logan: oh, you do. Rory: yeah, you know me -- i can be crafty. Logan: you can make a necklace out of macaroni, but this is high-stakes deception. Rory: what's my middle name? Rory "high-stakes deception" gilmore.

Logan: what could i do? You were working the system. In fact, you were working the system so well, i think the system needs a day off.

Logan: well can't blame the guy for that. You are beautiful.

Rory: well it was in the wrong font, and i got an "a" on that paper. Logan: wasn't that the professor who had a crush on you? Lucy: hey! Are you saying that she didn't deserve the "a"? Logan: i'm just saying the woman is the object of many strange crushes. Rory: oh, that's not true. Logan: the oddball who works at baskin-robbins? She can't walk within a block of the place without the guy running out with a triple scoop of mint chocolate chip. Rory: so not true. Lucy: [laughs] hey, she's something special. Rory: hey you know i put four pages of endnotes on that final. I deserved that "a." logan: i'm not saying you're not dedicated to your schoolwork. You’re the hardest worker i know, see i was always about doing just enough, or maybe a little less.
