New fandom, a new gay villain ship that I love. And while not fully new, with the third season of maws coming out now, I have become obsessed with it again.
As for the ship? It's no other than Slex. Because somewhere between the season 2 finale and that end shot of them they kissed and made up. I'm sure of it.
Well, mostly. Because things with them are ,uh, something right now. But do you think that will stop me from shipping them? Of course not. I am an optimist, and maybe slightly delusional.
So, spoilers for episode 4 ahead cuz I gotta talk about it.
Obviously we already had Lex waiting to do anything to stop Hank from killing Slade in episode 3, which now leaves Slade with an injured aem and a wee little grudge against Lex.
However- yes, however- despite that, his first instinct is still to pull out his sword when Hank comes near Lex in episode 4. He's also, yk, still in the room with Lex while being injured badly, which wouldn't make for that good of a bodyguard, even for Slade.
Though... when Hank actually threatens Lex, Slade does nothing. Literally. But I don't think that's a sign of like... whatever they have going on being done.
He was rightfully mad at Lex. And the thing is, we know they're still together after this. How? Because of the trailer. We see Lex getting punched by Lois and Slade is there.
Once again, not doing anything, but considering everything Hank is doing now due to the powers Lex gave him... he deserved a punch. And again, he's still injured. And I do feel like Slade is actually gonna interfere after that. At least I hope so.
Like, he's still staying with Lex. That gotta count for something. We see him being mad at Lex, being almost killed, but he still protects him at the same time.
Does this mean I think this will last? To be honest, probably not. They both are backstabbers and unless something big happens, one is gonna betray the other sooner than later.
After all, we didn't see Slade with Lex in the future. Though, that could go 2 different ways- either Slade ditched Lex, or he died, maybe even protecting Lex. That latter could just be me being delusional though lol.
Really though, these 2 are very interesting. It does look like Lex trusts Slade to a certain point, and Slade does really try his best to protect Lex most of the time.
I guess we'll just have to wait out the rest of the season to see what happens. Maybe they'll betray each other or maybe they'll somehow get closer. I think episode 5 will play a big part in that.
