Shatt

Shatt is the slash ship between Shiro and Matt from the Voltron: Legendary Defender fandom.

Canon
In "Shiro's Story," it reveals that Shiro and Matt meet at the Galaxy Garrison. They were two of three crew members to go on the mission to Kerberos. Exactly how well they knew each other prior to the mission is still unknown.

After the crew was captured by Galra, both Shiro and Matt were sent to the Gladiator arena to fight. Matt was due to go in first, but Shiro faked a violent outburst, injuring Matt's leg in the process to prevent Matt from being thrown into the arena. Shiro pretended to be bloodthirsty so that the Galra would choose him instead. It worked as Matt was sent away. However, the two never saw each other again, even during Shiro's time as a Galra prisoner.

In season 4, the two are reunited after Pidge discovers Matt's whereabouts and brings him back to meet Team Voltron. Matt addresses Shiro formerly, but Shiro cuts him off to bring him into a hug. From this point on, the two address each other like friends and comrades.

Fanon
The ship, while small, was founded soon after the release of season 1. Many like the idea of them being good friends from the Garrison, but recent canon material may suggest that the two were not acquainted until they were picked for the Kerberos mission. Still, fans like to imagine how they bonded while travelling through space together.

Trivia

 * In early 2017, a voice actor from the cast of the show leaked a scene from the recording booth on one of their social media profiles. In the photo, the TV has a shot of Matt and Shiro standing together, seeming like they're posing for a fight against a common enemy. This scene is in S5: E2 "Blood Duel".
