Eh, maybe. But at this point it is all fandom speculation. And really, the fact that fandom are ignoring the PoC gay characters (Danny; Deaton) in favour of shipping their favourites (white males) it seems a tad iffy to me.

Yeah, I mean, I don't even know these characters, so for me it's even more random speculation, haha. But it's always easier for TPTB to make a minor character on the outskirts of the real story the token gay person than to actually be a little brave and go for the main cast. And fans tends to car most about the main cast, and the relationships and dynamics that are happening on screen (i.e. liking to ship characters where there's a little tension involved).

Not that there can't be problematic reasons as well, but I think the importance of the character in canon combined with them having an interesting dynamic with another important character is usually the main reason for their popularity. (Also, character types, but that's a whole essay, so I won't go into that.)

Isn't it sad that any hope for a main male character to develop feelings for and relationship with another important male character (in U.S. genre media) is still considered preposterous in this day and age?
