Re: Non-canon ships people insisted were canon for some reason

Sterek, at least in the sense that it would be canon and I even started watching the show because I was promised eventual gay romance. Only to see two dudes who absolutely had an entertaining dynamic but who very clearly disliked one another. Shipping material for sure, canon potential though? Nope. Not even close.

Both Sheith and Klance from Voltron, shippers of both were convinced they would happen which was bizarre in the latter case as the characters really didn't interact much, and while I got why people shipped the former... Shiro was clearly written as an older bother/hero figure to Keith. I'd have been shocked if either had happened.

You were fooled by the couple of "you're like a brother" lines that were clearly shoehorned in to backpedal the gay subtext that was unintended but so obviously there anyway that even the voice actors noticed it. You don't even need to have shipped it to be able to tell putting one right before Keith said "I love you" in a moment like THAT wasn't a huge "whoops, uhhh uhh oh shit this is too gay QUICK SAY HE'S YOUR BROTHER"

... And this is what I mean. Can't talk about the former ship without one of you nutcases showing up and acting like it was meant to happen when it clearly wasn't. Even early on Shiro was narratively written as a guiding/older brother figure to the other paladins, no you're not dirty if you shipped it I don't care, so a romance between him and any of them wasn't going to happen IN CANON. In fandom do what you want.

or maybe just maybe the writers viewed them as brothers and wrote those lines to reflect that. crazy i know!
