It's tiny and besides, putting it in this article is kind of squick. Perverted fans aside, the show wasn't about shipping a kid with some adult character.

Maybe the trope needs cleanup.

Would this be too silly of a picture? http://www.neatoshop.com/product/Angel-Devil-Pugs-Salt-Pepper-Shakers

I took a look at the page, and it's not about actual romance between an angel and a devil, it's about shipping a sweet character with an evil character. Thus, the page pic's an actual example.

I'd be fine making this a "no pic" page, looking at the examples.

I like the salt shaker ones. Rule of Cute and Rule of Funny are in full force here!

Aside from the fact that the ship pictured is what the hell oh my god it burns, I think it would also go against the wiki's recently adopted no-pedophilia stance. Unless I'm misinterpreting or oversimplifying.

What about Twilight Sparkle and Discord? I think she looks good and he looks evil, but I may be acting all Fan Myopish again.

The angel and devil aspects are rather weak, there.

Actually, I guess you're right. The shakers are probably a lot better.

[up][up] I hardly think pugs can be taken as pedophilia.

Besides, it's adorable! waii

Though no less silly, I think that refers to the current image:

I was referring to Bubbles and Him. Unless my memory fails me, she's a kindergartner, and he's Satan. Quite the age difference!

But yeah, I'm in favor of the pugs. It's pretty much unanimous.

Can we put the shakers up already? Pretty much everyone seems to like them...

[up] That's not the trope, and neither are the shakers. Go back to post 6.

"Thus, the page pic's an actual example."

It is confusing because one of them is literally a devil.

Is that backed up by the examples and references? If not, we may have a TRS on our hands.

Edit: With numbers of 24/27, I'm going to go ahead and make a TRS. (Or not, since TRS is at the limit right now.)

Well according to Willbyr, the current page pic demonstrates the trope because an innocent character is paired with an evil character because of the chemistry of the ship. I don't mind the image if we could only get a bigger version of it. Though I have to admit I do like the salt shaker image.

I can't think of anything good for a signature.

No images in this thread are good. Current image is confusing because the "evil character" is literally a devil (but the trope name meaning is not supposed to be literal). Prefer no image.
