Shurtis is the slash ship between Shiro and Curtis from the Voltron: Legendary Defender fandom.

Canon

Shiro and Curtis both met in season 7, Curtis worked on the Atlas and would refer to Shiro as "Captain" or "Sir". Curtis stayed working on the Atlas in season 8 and aided Voltron in their mission. In the episode "Clear Day", Curtis was seen in the audience watching Shiro arm wrestling. When Shiro won, Curtis is seen celebrating among the others.

In the ending of season 8, he and Shiro are married. Shiro is shown reeling Curtis in by the waist to share a kiss; both clearly happy. The three younger Paladins, Coran and others are seen at the ceremony, celebrating.

Fanon

Shurtis began to rise after season 8 as the two are now married. It has some fans, but other fans were disappointed as they wanted Shiro to end up with Adam, his ex-boyfriend, and were hoping Adam was really alive.

The ship also earned ire from Sheith fans, who sees the ship as a obstacle to their own ship.

Shurtis has faced a large intense backlash within the fandom. The source of the bashing originated largely from fans of other Shiro ships. A large amount of malicious fan content had been created after the show's finale to spite Shurtis shippers and the ship itself. These often included: depictions of Shiro cheating on Curtis with another character, bashing and debasing Curtis, submission of fan works with homophobic language, bestiality association and portrayals of a toxic, unhappy and loveless marriage.

Fans of other Shiro ships have also been known to attack Shurtis fic writers and leave scalding comments on works that portrayal the ship positively.

Detractors of this ship often claim it as the main and only source of writing issue with the show, and have known to create unsightly editorial pieces in media publications lamenting the fact that Shiro got married and 'deserved better'. Many even go so far as to accuse shippers of being straight and privileged despite the number of LGBT fans who do like the ship despite its flawed inclusion.

Fans of this ship often draw or write a happy and healthy marriage or submit pre-relationship content to fill in the gap of how the ship came to pass. Much of the positive fan work have Shurtis adopting children or animals together. Many fans also have Curtis bonding with Shiro's friends, with some even going out of their way to play matchmaker for them.
