Scaryaxel is the femslash ship between Axel and Scary Girl from the Total Drama fandom.
Canon[]
Axel and Scary Girl share little to no interaction in canon. This is largely due to both girls being eliminated relatively early on in the season. As such, whether or not the two are friends is ambiguous.
In "Meet the Victims," Axel and Scary Girl are the second and seventh campers respectively to arrive on the island. Both are placed on the Ferocious Trout along with Damien, Chase, Millie, Priya, Ripper, and Zee. While the girls are settling into their cabin, both Axel and Scary Girl make a poor first impression on Priya, causing her to bunk away from them with Millie. During the first challenge of the season, the two girls are grouped with Priya and Zee in operating a pulley system to deliver two buckets of fish parts to the top of a tower. The Ferocious Trout go on to win the challenge, meaning all of its members, including Axel and Scary Girl, are safe from elimination.
Towards the beginning of "Pirates of the Cabbagean," Axel is seen attempting to offer skewered meat to some of her teammates for breakfast, which is actually dead squirrel. Scary Girl is the only one who does not hesitate to eat the meat, chowing down on a piece after it falls to the ground. During the second challenge, there is a dispute between Axel and Ripper over who gets to be the captain of their team's ship. Interestingly, when Ripper asks his team if they'd prefer Axel to be their captain, Scary Girl is the only one (aside from Zee, who is fine with there being two captains) who does not raise her hand in approval, although her reasoning isn't explained. Despite this, she does not express disapproval over Axel kicking Ripper off the ship, and costing their team a point. The Ferocious Trout end up losing the challenge, and Chris tells them that he'll be seeing them at tonight's elimination ceremony, whilst putting his hands on Axel and Scary Girl's shoulders. Later that night, while on their way to the elimination ceremony, Axel and Scary Girl are seen walking closely together, noticeably farther ahead of the rest of their team. Ultimately, Axel is the one voted out, and it isn't known if Scary Girl voted for her or not.
In "Magma Cum Laude," both Axel and Scary Girl return alongside the other eleven eliminated campers to watch the final three compete against each other for the one million dollar prize. At some point, while attempting to traverse through a lava lake, Priya's raft begins to sink, and Millie offers her a ride on her own raft. Damien questions whether or not Priya will jump, to which Julia states she doesn't have a choice. However, Axel says that her pride is too important, and that Priya should take on the lava, to which Scary Girl sadistically agrees by chanting "lava" three times. When all three finalists manage to make it across to the other side of the lake, Scary Girl expresses disappointment that none of them fell in the lava, which unnerves both Axel and Nichelle.
The two girls have even less opportunity to interact with one another in the reboot's second season, due to being placed on opposite teams. Both are also eliminated fairly early on once again, with Scary Girl being eliminated first, and Axel being eliminated seventh.
In "The Pink Painter Strikes Again," Axel and Scary Girl are seen sitting next to each other on the helicopter escorting them back to Camp Wawanakwa. During the first challenge, Scary Girl can be seen following Axel when she orders her teammates to move forward, despite not being on the same team as her. However, this results in both of them getting pegged by paint balloons, thus eliminating them from the challenge.

Fanon[]
The ship is an extremely rare pairing in the Total Drama fandom, supported by only a handful of people. It mostly sailed due to pre-season speculation that the two girls would be friends with each other, but this didn't end up being the case. As such, the ship is largely overlooked by most of the fandom, whom either aren't even aware that the two are shipped, or simply prefer their ships with other characters like Scarmien for Scary Girl, and Ripaxel for Axel, both of which are far more popular. Despite this, many people do agree that it would've been nice to see the two girls interact more, as they share a lot in common. Particularly the fact that they are both over-the-top and have a tendency to annoy/unnerve the rest of their teammates with their antics. Another trait they have in common is that they both have developed a grudge against Ripper, due to Axel fighting with him over leadership of their team, while Scary Girl hated Ripper for using Priya as a human shield. Some believe the two girls could bond over this shared grudge.
Some fans believe that Axel is the only camper on the season who isn't afraid of Scary Girl, or at the very least, can tolerate her to some extent. Likewise, Scary Girl doesn't actively torment Axel like she does to some of the other campers, so some believe she may respect her to some degree as well. Some fans believe that had Axel remained in the game over Ripper, she wouldn't have allowed her teammates to target Scary Girl, due to the fact that she values strength, and Scary Girl has been shown time and time again to be one of her team's most athletic members, in spite of her appearance.
