Shippers of Hawt Nuggit have pointed out numerous details about their characteristics that connect with each other: Chikn enjoys eating nuggets with hot sauce in particular, Chikn is pansexual, Chikn strives to have a relationship with someone and Hawt Saus in general feels lonely with Chikn being one of his only friends.
