The Amazing World of Gumball/Ships

= Smallarry = 

Smallary is the slash ship between Mr. Steve Small and Larry Needlemeyer from the The Amazing World of Gumball fandom

Canon
Their first notable interaction goes back to season five's "The Loophole". They argue on how to pronounce 'quinoa' with Larry being correct. In the end, a truck on potatoes fall onto them then Mr. Small mispronounces it causing Larry to be even more frustrated. Despite not having much interaction throughout the series, In the season six episode, "The Shippening", Larry is seen proposing to his Fiance, [https://theamazingworldofgumball.fandom.com/wiki/Karen#:~:text=Karen%20is%20a%20minor%20character,as%20a%20customer%20in%20line. Karen], but due to Sarah G.Lato's fanfiction soon being dragged down to Mr. Small causing Larry to accidentally purpose to him. Steve Small ripped off his clothes to reveal a wedding dress underneath and says, 'he will', with excitement. A later episode in season six (The Stink) has Mr. Small flirt with him, most likely due to him liking the idea of him running a small business, but it's also likely he got the wrong idea and developed feelings for him. We're not exactly sure on what his true thoughts were.

Fanon
Despite their minor character interactions, a fair amount of people in the fandom appear to ship them. It's often interpreted that Larry and Steve adopt Rob since he has no parental figures and Mr. Small could counsel him and Larry (despite him being bad at it).

Smaller common headcannons consist of Steve (Mr. Small) being the comfort that Larry needs, being his complete opposite as Steve is more relaxed, attempted at being helpful and caring, despite having more of a temper especially in earlier seasons. Some other shared fan theories are more personal, like Mr. Small possibly being trans or that Larry picked up his habit of "passing the joint" to help with his daily stress. The ship often leans more towards the betterment of Larry's mental state or the bickering/ disagreements seen within a few scenes.
