a small talk about shiro and keith

People seem to forget that the “I love you” came last, and that’s what made the clone react. As I sit here on the sidelines, watching the gifs of that scene and other scenes, I can’t help to think this relationship is going to turn out romantic.

I’m a queer man, and calling someone your brother or sister is the safe way to confess that you care a lot about them. I have said that to so many people before dating them. And I’m still friends with them. It’s not weird, it’s not incest. Obviously, you don’t know how a person of the lgbt confesses if you think it’s incest. Besides, it’s not incest at all. They’re not related in any way.

If the showrunners have been fighting for LGBT rep, then it’s these two. Even if it’s not blatantly shown, it very well may as be Shiro and Keith. That “I love you” line was a confession, and I can’t shake it off that their bond will only grow into something more beautiful than it already is.

I’m not a part of this fandom. I can’t care about it. I’m just someone who’s watching the show, nothing else. But I have to say, my lil hopeless romantic heart is betting on their relationship flourishing even more than it already has.

Let’s hope Shiro remembers everything that the clone experienced. I’m not going to shun anyone that thinks it’s strictly platonic, but as for me, the evidence of those two falling for each other is right in front of me. But even if it won’t happen, I’m not going to care. They have the strongest bond. It’s not every day you hear a male character say “I love you” to another male character.
