Ship It

When sixteen-year-old fangirl Claire gets to go to a local Comic-Con where the cast of her favorite show, Demon Heart, is appearing, she thinks it's a dream come true. Until the Q&A, that is. Mic in hand, Claire asks the two male stars, Forest and Rico, when they're going to acknowledge the romantic attraction between their characters and Forest rudely laughs off the question. Humiliated, Claire rushes out of the auditorium. After all, every last word of her super-popular fanfic revolves around the romance between Forest's and Rico's characters. Not to mention: dude-offensive! She can't believe what a bigoted jerk her hero turned out to be.

Unfortunately for Demon Heart, when a video of the disastrous Q&A goes viral, the producers have a PR nightmare on their hands. In order to help bolster their image within the LGBTQ+ community-as well as with their fans-they hire Claire to join the cast for the rest of their publicity tour. What ensues is a series of colorful Comic-Con clashes between the fans and the show that leads Forest to question his assumptions about sexuality and helps Claire come out of her shell. Together, they learn more than they ever imagined about themselves and what they're capable of. Also, Claire kind of falls in love. With a girl. Who is awesome.
