I know they were roommates and all but it didn’t seem like they ever let their guard down around the other

Garma sure did eventually lmao

But then again people will ship characters just for standing next to each other so I guess I shouldn’t try to find logic in it.

Yes, and Char is half of one of the most classic yaoi ships so naturally people expect his relationships to move 3x faster.

Really though what I’ve noticed is that anime fans will basically take whichever two characters have the most screen time together and ship them no matter what. See: Deku x Bakugo.
