Why I think Apritello will happen

[victory_angel]

She is distrustful about him, but it's more like she dislikes the fact April and Casey have a secret they share and is upset that they aren't sharing that secret with her.

Such as the moment in "Pizza Face" Where April is saying she's about to go on a date with Casey and Irma says "You're not going to see Casey, you're going to see those secret friends of yours."

Hey!

Let's not, because Don's been a creepy f*ck about it and let's not reward that?

Why can't we break this boring trend by her NOT being with anyone? Why is it optional for lead males to get shipped, but never optional for the lead females?

Because the show is written by men. To be fair, you sometimes get the reverse effect in properties aimed at young women (how many platonic male characters get to be introduced in Sailor Moon, for example?), but those are out of the norm to begin with. I'd be all for solo-April.

I've never gotten that impression. In Casey's debut ep, Irma didn't. She just closed her locker and took off. The other time, she reminded April that they had a test and didn't want to be late. She questioned Casey about his bruises because it was obvious that he was lying, she questioned him about the the ice rink being closed because he's a hockey player. Other times, Irma was around for their "dates" which April always points out aren't dates. He did say she always talks. I feel he just has an issue with Irma because she gets in the way when trying to get alone time with April.

I still get the impression that April invited Irma along. If she wanted alone time with Casey in a traditional date setting, she would probably let Irma know it.

Also, at this point, it seems she's bothered over the fact that April and Casey are keeping secrets from her.

Well, we'll have to agree to disagree. Especially in the The Good, The Bad and Casey Jones, that particular moment where she was rushing April to get away from Casey and her demeanor towards Casey was clearly the kind of bitchy one. But then again, the fact that Casey doesn't seem to have any friends outside of April and the Turtles, maybe Casey is more of a pain in the ass than we realize. When are we going to see his little sister? It's mentioned I think once and then never again. No? I wonder if she might have been the little girl that played tea with Leo? Maybe that's why she wasn't scared of him, maybe she saw Casey one night talking to one of the Turtles, so knew not to be afraid.
