Neosophi

"Sophia, you are fine as you are. Don't change. To me, you are the best DJ in the entire world."

- Neo in "Transmitted Heat, The Heart at 100.4º F" chapter 6

Neosophi is the femslash ship between Neo and Sophia from the D4DJ fandom.

Canon
Neo and Sophia are members of the DJ unit Abyssmare, where Neo is their main vocalist and leader, while Sophia serves as the group's DJ. Neo is a very charismatic girl who has a cutthroat attitude and is extremely prideful of her singing abilities. While Sophia appears cool, her personality is the exact opposite of Neo's, as she is very neurotic, has low self-esteem and is also socially awkward. Neo currently attends Yoba Academy as a second-year student while Sophia is a first-year student. They also live in the same house with the other Abyssmare members.

Sophia considers Neo her savior and she frantically worships her. She has a shrine filled with things such as pictures of Neo in her room, her credit card's PIN is the same as Neo's birthday, and she is willing to do everything Neo commands or asks her to, even letting Neo sit on her. Although she tends to be perplexed by her behavior or ignores her, Neo appreciates Sophia's DJing skills, and sometimes even teases her, such as when she asked Sophia why she would need pictures of Neo when she could just look at the real one whenever she wants to.

Their first meeting happened three years prior to the events of the side:nova event series. Sophia, a recluse who considered herself a complete failure and hated being the center of attention, was considering ending her life by jumping from the 5th floor of an apartment. However, she noticed someone looking at her and decided to run away. She ended up at a park, where she witnessed Neo singing and was completely captivated by the sight, as well as the fact that people weren't looking at Sophia. At that point she called Neo her "goddess" and fell for her, and every day went to listen to her singing. When Sophia found out that Neo had been scouted by their unit's manager, she realized she may not be able to see Neo in person ever again. She decided to be courageous and approached both of them, begging to let her join them. After a talk between the three, Sophia was completely over the moon over the fact she was able to team up with them, and Neo ponders whether things will work out.

Fanon
Neosophi is a controversial ship in the fandom. While it is the most popular ship for both of the girls, is seen as toxic and unhealthy due to Sophia's worshipping and obsession towards Neo, and with many believing that Neo doesn't care about her at all, despite the story showing that their relationship gets better and the two develop genuine care for each other as Neo warms up to her groupmates. Some even see Sophia as a yandere due to her devotion and the fact she has even said that she wants Neo to look only at her (after complimenting one of the other characters). It is mainly rivaled by their ships with their other groupmates such as Weroneo and Sophielsie.
