The author having the ship planned in advance seemed likely to me after the secret mentioning "brothers." If it's an M/M ship in a young adult series that's been going on for years, yeah, it's likely the author wasn't able to put it in the books back then even if they wanted to.

OP

The books are definitely not YA and had two canon gay ships explicit on page and another revealed canon in book 3 and novellas.

The two characters in this novella barely interacted before and my wish for them to become brothers came from one character having a father-son-ish relationship with the other's father - a fact that caused some jealousy.

OP again.

Okay, "barely interacted" sounds wrong. Let's say they were barely friends for a good chunk of the one book they interacted in but got better at it.

I really don't want to generalize because I obviously don't know everyone but I have yet to meet someone who actually shipped them or thought there was ANYTHING non-platonic about them and those books drip with non-platonic vibes for various ships (some of which I don't ship, but can see).
