Jackabeth

Jackabeth is the het ship between Jack and Elizabeth Comstock from the BioShock fandom.

Canon
Jack is the protagonist of the 2007 game BioShock, while Elizabeth is a character from the Burial at Sea episodes DLC in BioShock Infinite.

In Burial at Sea - Episode 2, whenever Elizabeth comes across specific items, visions of Jack's own journey through Rapture are triggered.

After Atlas strikes Elizabeth on the head with a wrench, she finds herself on the ill-fated Apollo Air Flight DF-0301. Walking down the aisle, Elizabeth's perspective alternates between the plane and Rapture. As Jack stands up to begin hijacking the plane, he somehow senses Elizabeth and begins to turn towards her.

As Elizabeth dies, she sees the future clearly, witnessing Jack helping the former Little Sisters Sally, Masha, and Leta to escape to the surface. She says, "I can see the doors, and what's behind all the doors. And behind one of them, incredibly, I see him." Knowing that Jack will take care for the girl she came back to save brought her some peace in her final moments.

Fanon
While Jack and Elizabeth never truly meet in canon, they are shipped by a small, but dedicated group within the BioShock fandom. The shipping of them is most likely due to their similarities.

The scenarios under which Jack and Elizabeth meet are usually AUs from BioShock canon, as Elizabeth dies at the end of Burial at Sea, roughly a year before Jack arrives in Rapture.

One version of their meeting, which is canon compliant, has Jack somehow learn of Elizabeth after his defeat of Atlas/Fontaine. He then finds her body in the secret area behind the repairs done in Suchong's Clinic. He then modifies the prototype Vita-Chamber in Suchong's secret lab with the sample of Elizabeth's hair to recognize and then resurrect her.

This ship has 26 works on AO3, while FanFiction.net has 9. Along with the ship having a reasonable fanbase on Tumblr and Deviantart.
