Naterad

Naterad is the slash ship between Nate Heywood and Behrad Tomaz from the Legends of Tomorrow fandom.

Season 4
HEY, WORLD

As Nate hugs Zari, she disappears and he pulls back to have her brother Behrad standing there instead. Behrad exclaims that Nate just came back to life. Nate feels that something is wrong, but Behrad ignores him comment and says that there was more pelvis in the hug than usual, but it's all good, and places his hand on Nate's shoulder. Nate apologizes, but says that there's something missing, before going over to Ray.

Quotes
"B, chin up. You are a catch. If there was a female version of you, I would be all over her. Fact!"

Behind the Scenes
"It looks like, SaraSharpe 1231 "I meant romantically with that Nate question. So, will I mend his heart romantically? We'll have to talk to Nick Zano about that. We'll have to see if he- I'm all about it. I'm into it. We can explore whatever we need to explore. We'll have to ask how he feels."

Fanon
Fans started to joke that Nate and Behrad were together, when at the end of season 4 Zari was replaced with him, and the two had been dating. It was mostly a joke but some did see ship potential in their brief interaction.

Shipping picked up at the start of the season 5, quickly gaining fans with one episode. The ship continued to grow as the season went on, with non-shippers still enjoying their bro moments.

On AO3, Naterad is the second most written relationship for Behrad and the tenth most written for Nate.
