Choppy is the slash ship between the Voice of the Cheated and the Voice of the Opportunist from the Slay the Princess fandom.
Canon[]
Cheated and Opportunist are voices residing in the player's (i.e. the Hero's) head. They're implicated to be spawned via the Princess' perception of the player and their actions. Opportunist is described as a slimy, brown-nosing backstabber who only cares for his own gain. Cheated in contrast is seen as someone easily falling for simple tricks, hence his fiery attitude. Both use up their best ability to gain the player the upper hand in survival, or on Opportunist's end, whatever boosts him.
Cheated and Opportunist's personality as well as Personality Power greatly differentiates the other. Explained prior, Cheated is feisty and bad-mouthed due to the events correlating with his title. Opportunist is collected, for the most part, and can be smug to coward. The disparity initiates the Opposites Attract trope. Though they are considered fellow voices, they don't tend to share the same goal depending on the context.
An example of common ground spawns from the Razor route, where all the voices collectively materialize to defeat the enemy with individual tactics. If the Opportunist spots a chance, he'll willingly dismiss the player and other voices. This often gets him a bad reputation with his peers. According to Jonathon Sims, he genuinely believes they view him as a friend when they can't stand him.[citation needed] Cheated can arguably be considered more powerful than the latter. His ability to smash cut, completely skipping time, rivals Opportunist's Lying By Omission .
Through superficial assumption, the two aren't very compatible, especially when facing problems where teamwork is vital.
Fanon[]
In comparison to more popular ships involving the voices, singular Choppy is a rarepair. Fans admire the tension and catastrophic dynamic the two could/do have. Their names unintentionally meld, considering Opportunist tricks people into feeling cheated.
