Sabezra

"Those two can't go anywhere without blowing something up."

- Zeb

Sabezra is the het ship between Ezra Bridger and Sabine Wren from the Star Wars fandom.

Season One
In “Spark of Rebellion”, Ezra displays obvious signs of being attracted to Sabine after seeing her without her helmet for the first time. He asks her name but doesn’t receive an answer immediately due to their ship being in the middle of an escape. Later, after Sabine explains how her crew acts as a sort of family, she tells Ezra her name. Upon seeing how Zeb is reluctant to discuss Ezra following their escape from a Star Destroyer, she questions what happened with apparent concern.

Though Sabine agrees that going back to rescue Ezra is unwise, she displays obvious regret. When they return for him, Sabine caustically reminds Zeb not to leave anyone behind this time. Later, as Ezra is leaving the Ghost, Sabine appears to be disappointed. She is later seen sitting alone in the galley, presumably contemplating his-quickly aborted-departure.

In “Rise of the Old Masters”, Ezra sees Sabine painting in her room and is briefly distracted from angrily pursuing Chopper. He awkwardly attempts to flirt with her, offering to help her find inspiration, but she shuts him down without much ado. Despite this, Ezra later voices the hope that he can convince Sabine to paint a TIE Pilot helmet that Zeb has just gifted him. Later, he is chagrined to see her latest comical artwork depicting him and Zeb, despite her reminder that he earlier wanted to serve as inspiration for her.

In “Empire Day”, Sabine stops to watch as Ezra is in the middle of a training session with Kanan. Later, when Ezra joins the rest of the crew late on a sabotage mission, Sabine questions his absence. With some smugness, Ezra asks whether she missed him. Later, Sabine is stunned to learn that Ezra was born on Empire Day. After finding him in his parents’ old workshop, Sabine questions the nature of a disk he’s examining.

In “Gathering Forces”, after Tseebo claims to know the fate of Ezra’s parents, Sabine briefly hesitated to leave the pair alone. Later, she points out what Tseebo has gone through since his last encounter with Ezra, all apparently as a means of making up for past failures. Sabine later questions Ezra whether he believes his parents are alive, and tries to persuade him to speak to Tseebo about them. Ezra refuses, and Sabine is obviously distressed both by this and his reasoning that he doesn’t want to jeopardize his ability to survive by letting himself hope.

While Ezra is away on a mission, Sabine turns her attention to the disk, which she apparently took from the workshop. She subsequently returns the repaired disk to Ezra, and it proves to contain an image of him with his parents. Sabine, leaving him to enjoy the sight, says goodbye with a “Happy Birthday, Ezra Bridger.” In “Vision of Hope”, Sabine takes part in Ezra’s latest training session, and is on hand when he tells them about a vision he’s had. Like Zeb, she proves skeptical, and gives Ezra a teasing punch on the shoulder.

Sabine later explains the workshop to Hera and the others, but cuts off Hera as she’s talking about the Bridgers after seeing that Ezra has arrived. She then tries to distract Ezra by questioning him about his recon mission. Later, when Ezra says he has a way into the building they’re looking to enter undetected, Sabine is skeptical but Ezra confidently reminds the whole crew of his solo survival time. He leads them to an old sewer, which Sabine notes does smell like Ezra, alerting him to the fact that Sabine “know[s] what [he] smell[s] like”. Afterwards, when the crew is forced to separate and Ezra worries over their ability to find each other, Sabine quips “I can smell you, remember?” Ezra opens his mouth to make a clever comeback, but Hera prevents him from doing so based on the urgency of their escape.

Fanon
Sabezra is one of the main ships of the Star Wars Rebels series. Ezra is shown to initially have a crush on Sabine, although eventually in the Ahsoka series it is revealed that he ended up seeing her as a sister. This interpretation is supported by a large part of the fandom, since the two are considered as the "kids" of the Ghost Crew, while Kanan and Hera serve as the parents.

However, others believe that it is implied that Ezra might have been nervous to tell Sabine his true feelings, as Sabine gave an unconvinced look. After he vanished, she took up training to be a Jedi like him despite being Mandalorian, and when that fell through her life spiraled. She lives in his tower loft on Lothal, dressing like him and seemingly nearly friendless despite the rest of the team still being alive and well. Although he says she's "like a sister" in his private holomessage that he left just for her (in addition to the general one he left for the entire team), she smirks with a clear "yeah, sure, we both know that's bull" look at the line. It's clear she's watched the message dozens or maybe hundreds of times in the past decade. When she cuts her hair, it's notably shorter than it had been before she grew it out, more like Ezra's hairstyle the last time she saw him. She's so desperate to get to him that she's willing to give the villains the map to where he is as long as they agree to allow her to search for him when they get there, even though this means that Thrawn will have a way back to their galaxy as well and she has no guarantee that he's even still alive at this point.

Despite Ezra calling her "sister" in the first episode of Ahsoka, the ship continues to enjoy some popularity in certain sectors of the fandom, with many feeling the show was building up the relationship to become a reality in a future story.

Despite having initially lost much of its popularity in the beginning of Ahsoka due to the arrival of WolfWren, Sabezra later had a massive resurgence, drawing in many new fans (many of whom didn't initially ship them in Rebels).
