Captain Canary

Captain Canary is the het ship between Sara and Snart from the Legends of Tomorrow fandom.

Canon
After being recruited by Rip Hunter, Sara quickly aligns herself with Snart and Rory, due to her self-perception as a murderer. She takes a liking to Snart and hangs around him most of the time. They play cards often and talk about things. Later on Snart tells Sara that he loves her, and Sara admits her feelings through a kiss just as Snart sacrifices himself and blows up the Oculus.

Pilot
Sara and Snart meet as they are recruited by Rip Hunter for his mission, but both are benched for the team's first outing. Sara finds herself restless and says they should go out, which Snart is immediately into. Sara, Snart and Rory go to a bar in the '70s and Sara asks Snart if he wants to dance, but he declines and watches as he dances on her own. Some creep rudely hits on Sara, she mouths off at him and fights him off, leading to a bar brawl. After a while Sara asks the guys to tap in, and they do. They return to the Waverider in a stolen car just in time to temporarily take out Kronos and save their team. When Rip reveals that he lied about their actual place in his future timeline, they think things over and Sara suggests they can choose their own fates, which Snart implicitly echoes.

Fanon
Fans began to ship them immediately and it became the main fandom pairing for season's one and two. Many shipped them based on their similar personalities, back and forth snark and darker pasts; Sara being an assassin, while Leonard was a criminal with an abusive upbringing. Fans of the pairing were upset when Leonard returned briefly in season 2 and there was no mention of their relationship.

On AO3, it is the second most written ship for Leonard, and the most written ship for Sara. It is still the most written ship in the Legends of Tomorrow tag, despite the show currently airing Season 4 and their romance taking place in Season 1.
