Shidge

Shidge is the het ship between Shiro and Pidge from the Voltron: Legendary Defender fandom.

Season 1
After failing a flight simulation, Pidge leaves. Hunk and Lance soon find her outside the Garrison, listening for any signals via radio. A spaceship is seen falling through the sky; Pidge and Lance hurriedly run off to see the ship, quickly discovering it's Shiro who was aboard it. A plan is made to rescue him, but Keith already is. Once Shiro and the others are out, Pidge holds onto Shiro while Keith drives the hoverbike.

After escaping the Garrison, the Galra and flying to the planet Arus, Hunk and Lance are out retrieving the Yellow Lion, Shiro and Pidge are out retrieving the Green Lion. Later, Shiro, Pidge and Keith are out attempting to retrieve the Red Lion. Shiro realizes the ship they’re on is the same ship he and his former crewmates were taken to. Pidge insists on finding them, when Shiro tells her no, she snaps. She yells how Commander Holt is her father. When Shiro learns that, he abandons the search for the Red Lion to join her instead, there also rescuing other prisoners of Zarkon.

The prisoners they recused tell Shiro of his time as "Champion" and how he injured his fellow earthling, Matt. Pidge turns to Shiro demanding to know why he attacked her brother. Shiro stammers, until he leaves to go to the cashed ship that brought the prisoners. Pidge follows after him. They take their Lions to the ship; soon Pidge begins downloading files with the help of Shiro's Gala-tech hand. Moments later a large Galra breaks through the atmosphere, Shiro tries to removes his hand, but Pidge forcibly keeps him in place. As more seconds go by, Shiro becomes more anxious. Shiro tells Pidge he's sorry, before wrapping an arm around her and jet-packing up. Pidge struggles in his hold, yelling about her father. As the Galra gets closer to impact, Shiro tells her to run. Unfortunately they don't make it in time, so Shiro covers her body with his own. It's there they learn that the Lions protect them. Shiro tells Pidge to get to her Lion. They fight together, Pidge gets hit and knocked down, before the Galra can attack her again, Shiro (in his Lion) jumps on the beast's back. Shiro gets thrown down too. With the help of the other paladins, the monster is defeated. Soon after, Pidge is sitting alone, Shiro comes up to her, saying, "There you are." Pidge looks up him with a hurt expression, asking why he'd hurt her brother. Shiro tells her he did what he did to save Matt. Realizing this, Pidge tears up and flings herself into Shiro. The two share a warm hug, and Pidge tells him she's sorry for doubting him. Shiro can tell how much she misses her family. He tells Pidge how her brother and father would be proud of her, even saying her real name, "Katie". He reassures her how her secret is safe with him.

Sometime later, at a celebration party, Pidge informs Allura she’s leaving the team. Before leaving, she wants to talk with Shiro. As she and Shiro are walking back to the castle, an explosion goes off. They go their separate ways for the time being. The next time Shiro and Pidge communicate is when Pidge radios Sendak about his fallen partner, Haxus. In response, Sendak forces Pidge to listen to Shiro being tortured. Pidge is visibly affected by this. Once Sendak is engaged in battle with the other paladins, he is soon defeated. Pidge crouches down by Shiro’s side, touching his shoulder. The two share a relived smile.

Shortly after, the team is looking over Lance is the healing pod. Shiro turns to Pidge, thanking her for all she did. He mentions how he can’t help but feel she was meant to be a part of this team, but understands if she still wishes to leave. Pidge says how her father used to tell her how close he was to his crew members, how they were like family. Shiro smiles at hearing this. She goes on how she understands what he was talking about, and that she’s staying with the team.
