marcicatI've just decided this: I think every fandom (more fandoms? at least more) should have a Steve&Robin relationship.
KEY FEATURES LIST THAT I'VE JUST MADE UP:
*ride or die? YES
*do they love each other? YES
*is it romantic? NO
*is it sexual? NO
*do they hold hands? YES
It probably helps that in Stranger Things fandom, they have to explain this a lot. Yes, they're listed as each other's emergency contact on every form. No, they're not dating. Yes, they date other people. No, that doesn't seem weird to them.
WHY IS THIS SO GREAT?
*please can we have a million more examples in popular media of the vast multitudes of human relationships?
