- I take thee, Yor... for better or for worse... for richer or poorer... in good times and in bad… in sickness and in health... I pledge myself to you.
- —Loid's proposal to Yor
TwiYor is the het ship between Loid Forger and Yor Forger from the Spy x Family fandom.
Canon[]
Twilight is a spy with the mission to spy on Donovan Desmond, a political leader. Since he is very reclusive, Twilight has to find a way to gain access to him. So he makes himself a fake name, “Loid Forger”, and adopted Anya because he needed a child to legitimize his interest in Eden College, the school Desmond's sons attend. Eden placed great importance on the pedigree of her pupils so Anya barely passed her exam. To make her more presentable, Loid had to buy her some clothes from a boutique, which is where he first met Yor Briar.
Even before she met Loid, Yor was dealing with some personal issues of her own. They are on a time were the Cold War was hitting theeir countries, Westalis and Ostania, so people were constantly reported as spies if they had suspicious behaviours, including not being in a relationship or married for a long time. Since she is an assassin, she doesn't have much time for her personal life and less for a couple, and she promised to bring a partner to her co-worker's party. To make matters worse, her latest murder ruined her only nice dress, so she had nothing to wear to the said party, which is why she goes to the boutique where she meets Loid.
Moving with the grace of a trained assassin, Yor manages to enter the boutique, and Loid notices her presence when he calls out to the seamstress. Her stealth surprises him and he instantly begins scanning his mental database to identify the woman who had surprised him. Yor surprises him even more when she asks him if she could help him with something of hers since he had been looking at her for a while. Loid quickly makes up the excuse that he was admiring her beauty, but the fact that she could also feel his gaze on her disturbed him.
However, the one who truly makes their meeting worthwhile is Anya. When she shows up and calls Loid “Papa,” Yor assumes he’s already married and mentally rules him out as a potential fake partner. But since Anya can read minds, she hears that Yor is an assassin and instantly thinks she’d make a cool mom. When Anya realizes both adults are about to reject the idea of being together, she blurts out that she doesn’t have a mother. Yor picks up on this and proposes a mutually beneficial arrangement: she’ll pretend to be Loid’s wife for Anya’s entrance interview at Eden Academy, and he’ll act as her boyfriend at an upcoming party.
Though the plan was for Loid to accompany Yor to Camilla’s party, he gets delayed by one of his missions. Yor arrives alone, and when Loid finally shows up, he confuses their agreement and introduces himself as her husband, causing confusion among the guests. Camilla, jealous and skeptical that Yor could date such a handsome man, tries to humiliate her, first by attempting to throw a plate of food at her, then by revealing that Yor used to give “massages” before her current job. Loid defends Yor, saying he respects anyone who puts others before themselves. After this, they quickly leave, with Loid hurt and Yor no longer wanting to stay. On their way home, the men Loid had fought during his earlier mission ambush them. Amid the chaos, Yor realizes there could be no other man who would accept her as she is, so she asks Loid to marry her. She explains that being single makes her look suspicious and suggests they stay together for both their benefit. Loid agrees and suggests they head to city hall immediately to get married. As they’re being chased, Loid pulls the pin from a grenade and throws it at their pursuers. As the explosion erupts behind them, he proposes to Yor using the grenade pin as a ring
- Loid – “I take thee, Yor... for better or for worse... for richer or poorer... in good times and in bad… in sickness and in health... I pledge myself to you… to love and to cherish… Until my missions...”
- Yor – “Until my murders...”
- Both – “May do us part.”
- —Chapter 2.
After marrying, Yor moves to his department along with Anya. Loid explain they will have separate rooms, although when visit comes, they would share a room for appearances. Both share a big amount of respect towards each other, as both of them see each other as admirable citizens who work for the good of their country, as well as both know they lost their parents during war, so both of them always do their best to raise Anya so that she does not have to suffer the same as they did.
Although Loid and Yor initially agreed that their relationship was purely for mutual benefit, they've slowly begun developing genuine feelings for each other. Loid often represses his emotions by reminding himself that the Forgers are just part of his mission and that he has dated many women for the sake of world peace. However, with Yor, he has begun to question this stance. He's starting to recognize how much he's changed as a spy, having grown emotionally attached to Yor and the Forger family.
Yor, on the other hand, hides her feelings out of fear—fear of being rejected or replaced by someone else. Due to her life as an assassin and her years spent caring for Yuri, she lacks romantic experience and feels unworthy of Loid. Despite helping around the house, she believes she falls short both domestically and romantically. Even though Loid often takes on most of the household responsibilities—sometimes even doing her share—it’s not because she’s incapable, but because he believes it helps maintain their agreement by keeping things smooth between them. Romantically, Yor feels especially insecure. She struggles with expressing affection and worries she can't meet Loid’s needs in that way. These doubts intensify after a conversation with her coworkers, who find it strange that she isn’t able to give her own husband a kiss.
The only problem is that the two still haven't figured out each other's occupations, but are slowly beginning to understand that neither of them is exactly what they seem.

Fanon[]
TwiYor is the most popular ship in the Spy x Family fandom. It has 1k+ works on AO3, mostly canon compliant. The fandom generally agrees that they both make a great pair and that they have a lot of sweet interactions together. The fandom also likes the interactions between the two and Anya as a family. TwiYor got a lot more popular after the release of the Spy x Family anime. Many fans wish the couple can be canon in the future since there's no confirmation of feelings on either side, only ship bait, but a lot of fans don't lose their hopes to make them finally get married for real.
Fans also really loved that over time, their relationship changed from just working together to fulfill their own goals into a faux marriage somewhat resembling husband and wife. Frequently, both Yor and Loid will furiously blush whenever Anya asks if they will kiss, followed by a shared denial. Many fans like to speculate that the moment Yor fell in love with Loid in chapter 2 after Loid defends Yor from Camila since she starts blushing and staring at him as her eyes became brighter. On Loid's side, fans say that the moment he fell in love with her was when Loid felt completely guilty for hours ago planting a bug on Yor and not telling her, and later Yor confesses to him she's happy that she married him and he gets a small blush (which is very important since he barely blushes), and he stares at her with the same bright eyes Yor stared at him in chapter 2.
The revelation of their feelings in the future can bring a lot of happiness to fans of the ship. They are mostly shipped alongside DamiAnya. It also gained more popularity when fans realized that they resemble Kaguya and Miyuki from Kaguya-sama: Love Is War and constantly joke about them being the younger version of Yor and Loid, So Kaguprez shippers have taken a liking to this ship as well.
