Plabs is the slash ship between Mr. Krabs and Plankton from the SpongeBob SquarePants fandom.

Canon
Mr. Krabs and Plankton are currently arch-nemesis. However, they weren't always this way. In fact, Plankton was Mr. Krabs' first friend. They were particularly close during their teenage years as they both struggled to fit in. When he attended school, Mr. Krabs was bullied by other kids for being poor. Mr. Krabs was extremely poor, but Plankton never cared about that. They were inseparable, and Plankton even helped Mr. Krabs seek revenge. He stuck with Mr. Krabs until they parted ways when they started to build their businesses.

Together, the both of them opened a food truck at the dumpster in Bikini Bottom, the only thing they could afford. However, their business venture was unsuccessful because they had no customers, and the only person that tried their burger, died because of it. The two started a fight after Plankton accused Mr. Krabs of killing the man. He took the recipe out of Mr. Krabs' hands and said he take him with him to "make it better." In a tug of war, the two end up breaking the recipe. So they decide to go their separate ways and to start their own businesses. By mistake, Mr. Krabs ends up creating the Krabby Patty, making everyone in Bikini Bottom fall in love with it, and making his business successful, and starting his long rivalry with Plankton.

Plankton opened up Chum Bucket, a direct competition of Mr. Krabs’ “Krusty Krab.” Since then, the two began to compete with each other, wanting to beat the other. Plankton always tries to steal Mr. Krabs’ secret formula but will always fail. His restaurant food always proves to be subpar against Krusty Krab’s Krabby Patties.

Fanon
is not such a popular ship within the SpongeBob SquarePants fandom. It's often overshadowed by the most popular ships within the fandom, SquidBob and PatBob. The two of them are usually shipped alongside Karen and Sandy.

Usually, in these fan works, Plankton and Karen divorce each other and Karen and Sandy get together, while Plankton and Mr. Krabs go from enemies to lovers, a dynamic many fans of the ship love to explore.
