Not every ship has:
enemies to partners to friends to lovers
grumpy x sunshine; arguing like a married couple; height difference
undercover
protective / “hurt them I hurt you” vibes
OTP (notable lines)
(technically) co-parenting
slowburn/mutual pining/will they won’t they
hurt/comfort
saving each other’s lives; scene parallels
actors that ship them
but CHENFORD does
