Spoilers for 'Agents of SHIELD' Season 7 Episode 6 'Adapt or Die'

One of the heartening moments in the July 1 episode of 'Agents of SHIELD' was Daniel Sousa (Enver Gjokaj) trying his level best to kee a drugged and injured Daisy (Chloe Bennet) to stay alive. Fans took to Twitter not just to praise Daisy for being one of the strongest members of the team, but also hoped she and Sousa would become a couple. 

"I can't believe #AgentsOfSHIELD has me shipping Peggy Carter's man with a woman I've always wanted to see kiss other women BUT HERE WE ARE," a fan wrote. "Detective Sousa reawakened my homosexuality and I thank him for that. I was pissed when Agent Carter was canceled...." a fan remarked. "Daisousa (that's my shipping name for them; I'm hoping it catches on) becoming canon would be exactly the ending both Sousa and Daisy deserve. Also... it wouldn't necessarily make Daisy straight, so there's nothing but winning here, really." a fan opined.

"Can someone please make fanfic bout this please!!" a fan requested. "I mean it's hard not to when they pulled all the romance tropes they. could possibly think of for episodes 5 and 6," said a fan who didn't seem the least bit surprised. "This was so cute," a fan exclaimed. "He's literally old enough to be her great-great-grandfather so no lol," a fan opined, but had a quick reply from another fan: "Chronologically, yes, but when they met, the age gap was a heck of a lot smaller, so I'd say it's cool."

"I need Daisy and Daniel to be an item!! They are so cute together," a fan tweet read. "Daisy was torture in every season except for season 6. #AgentsofShield," a fan wrote. "IF YOU DON'T THINK DAISY IS THE STRONGEST MARVEL CHARACTER I INVITE YOU TO LEAVE THE ROOM, SHE'S LOST ALMOST EVERYONE SHE LOVED, HER MOTHER TRIED TO KILL HER, SHE WAS CONTROLED BY HIVE TO DO BAD THINGS, SHE WAS TORTURED TWICE AND SHE'S STILL FIGHTING.SHE'S MY HERO #AgentsofSHIELD," an animated fan said.

"3 times, Doctor Fitz tortured her to get her powers back, but she's held on strong," a fan wrote. "Daisy da best," read another.
