Finnceline

"I, for one, think you're pretty great."

- Marceline to Finn in "Go With Me"

Finnceline is the het ship between Finn and Marceline from the Adventure Time fandom.

Canon
Though they were initially enemies, Finn and Marceline soon befriend one another. Even when Marceline acts as a bully in her debut episode, "Evicted!", she is impressed by Finn's brave aggression and defiance and chooses to kiss him on the cheek after they fight. Both Marceline and Finn share the same spark for adventure and love of danger and excitement. Marceline is very good friends with Finn, who she seems to trust and is very comfortable being around.

One of the reasons Finn and Marceline befriend each other is that Finn saved Marceline's life in "Henchman" when Jake exposed her to the sunlight and threw garlic at her in a misguided attempt to help Finn. Although they were friends, Marceline still seemed to care about her Ax bass more than him, as seen in "It Came from the Nightosphere." In "Go With Me", Marceline makes it clear she does not want to date Finn, but Finn explains that he didn't want to date her either. They go to the movies together, but only as friends. More recently, Marceline has expressed that she does indeed care for Finn's well being. This is exemplified in "Heat Signature", where she becomes more protective of Finn when her ghost friends take pranking him and Jake too far on what started as a harmless "vampire initiation."

It is revealed in "Marceline's Closet" that Marceline still hides out in Finn and Jake's Tree Fort from time to time. In the same episode, Finn sees Marceline naked as she is about to take a shower, resulting in Finn being very flustered. Also, in the episode, Marceline forgives them for sneaking into her house even though she says not to.

In the episode "Daddy's Little Monster", Marceline's father states that he thinks that her friends, meaning Finn and Jake, are OK. After hearing this, she jests to Finn that she doesn't want to hang out with him anymore.

In "Bad Little Boy", Marceline tells a story centered on the interaction between her male-counterpart, Marshall Lee, and Finn's female-counterpart, Fionna. It is possible that she based the story on her own interaction with Finn. Even though Marceline claimed she only likes Finn as a friend, Marshall Lee seemed to think Fionna liked him more than that. It is also possible that Marceline wrote it as a love story only to please the other princesses, but the former statement could hint at Marceline's feelings for Finn.

"Simon & Marcy" marks the first time since "Daddy's Little Monster" that Marceline has hung out with Finn (not including "I Remember You"). She shows that they still have the same friendship they did in previous seasons, backing up that she was only jesting about not wanting to hang out anymore.

In the mini-series, "Islands", Marceline shows up to wish Finn and Jake goodbye before they embark on their trip, and states that she and Bubblegum care for him.

Finnceline was once drawn in Rebecca Sugar's concept art, who came up with the idea of Bubbline.

Fanon
Finnceline was popular along with Fubblegum in the early seasons of the series. However its popularity got surpassed by Bubbline after.
