Stevanos

Stevanos is the slash ship between Steve and Stephanos Coffeebean from the Social Distancing & Dungeons & Dragons fandom

Canon
In the first episode, Social Distancing D&D, Stephanos explains about his accents, and Steve says his accent is sexy. Qezza and Steve argue about whether or not Steve should play a song for them, and Stephanos interrupts and offers to sing something. Steve says he never wants to hear that. Later, Steve tap dances on the table when Qezza tells him and Stephanos to stay out of sight. Stephanos cheers him on and says, “You do you, Steve!” After shooting his crossbow and hitting a person attacking them, Stephanos turns to Steve and says, “Steve! Look at that! You see me?”

A sturge tries to kill Stephanos in How to Kill A Troll. Steve uses his turn to kill the sturge and save Stephanos. Then, when Steve is injured, Stephanos volunteers to heal Steve instead of himself. Steve rejects this plan, and says that he believes in Stephanos and that Stephanos can kill the troll they’re facing. Stephanos says this is the “most wonderful thing” he’s ever heard. Then, after the fight is over, Stephanos uses his magic to cure Steve when he himself is also badly injured.

In the episode Ryan Serenades A Gnome, Takky, a person they meet, says that Stephanos has a “bangin’ bod”, and Steve says he agrees with her. Stephanos doesn’t know how to respond to Takky, and just quickly says, “it was nice meeting you.” Later, when Stephanos tells Xoblob, a shop owner, that he loves him, Steve wants to leave quickly and he and Qezza drag Stephanos out the door. When Stephanos asks why Steve would do that, as Xoblob is his "best friend" and Steve replies with, "Stephanos, I might turn you into a suppository if you don't shut that trap of yours." This could be due to jealousy.

Near the end of Ryan Serenades A Gnome, Steve says he'll inspire Stephanos to heal himself and says, "Here's the thing, Stephanos. I'm getting really tired of hearing all your whining, so it in our best intrests-and I'm saying our because we are a unit, and you are my friend." he continues, and after Steve finishes, Stephanos says Steve is "the kindest soul" and that "if I were a lady, I'd be your lady."

In the episode Bergara Guitara Bard Battle, Stehpanos comforts Steve and tells him he's a good singer. Steve doesn't believe him, but Stephanos insists that he's telling that truth and that Steve "makes his insides tingle". Everyone questions this with alarm, and Stephanos awkwardly says that they should get a table. Steve says, "Despite that last statement, sure, let's get a table."

When Stephanos is fatally injured in Deathbed Confessions, Steve says, “Oh no. I actually feel a little sad right now.” a little later, Stephanos says he has something to tell Steve, then says he’s sorry for all the mean things he said. Then, after he's healed, Stephanos tells Qezza he has a crush on her. Steve listens awkwardly, and a little sadly.

Steve wants to die when he’s injured in Revenge of the Goblins so he doesn’t have to hear Stephanos’s voice anymore. Stephanos is able to heal him, and Steve wakes up, saying, “Oh wow. So glad to be back on Earth when I was only a few feet away from the pearly white gate where they had free beer.” Meanwhile, Stephanos is very relieved.

Fanon
Stevanos is the most popular ship in the fandom. Watcher is well aware of the ship, and has made tweets that imply Steve likes Stephanos as more than a friend, though it's not completely confirmed. They also implied that Stevanos might happen if there’s a season 2. It is a popular theory that Stephanos was actually going to tell Steve he had a crush on him, not Qezza, but got too scared at the last second and said Qezza instead, or he was trying to make Steve jealous. If he was, it seems to have worked.
