"Do you know the story of the sparrow and the fir tree?" he asked.

Jim shook his head, and Tim began to recount the tale of a little sparrow, chilled by the approaching winter, who sought shelter from various trees, only to be turned away.  

"Time was running out. The cold was becoming unbearable, and the sparrow was on the verge of collapse when he spotted a fir tree in the distance. Gathering what was left of his strength, the poor bird decided to make one final attempt. ‘Dear fir tree,’ he said, ‘I’m at my limit. May I take shelter among your branches?’ The mighty tree looked at him with compassion. ‘Of course, little bird,’ it replied. ‘The cold is harsh, my branches are small and my leaves are more like needles, but you’re welcome here. I will give you all the protection you need.’ The weary sparrow barely managed to whisper his thanks before nestling in and falling into a deep sleep. That night, a violent snowstorm swept through the forest. The wind howled ferociously, but the sparrow, safe in his deep slumber, remained unaware, shielded by the fir tree’s warm branches. Upon waking, however, the sparrow saw a desolate landscape: all the trees had lost their leaves to the cold. Only the fir tree stood green and flourishing, and from that day forward, it became the sparrow’s new home." 

Tim placed the bird in Jim’s hand, folding his fingers gently around it. "I may not be as strong as a fir tree," Tim said, "but I can offer you my friendship… for what it’s worth."

I was going to ask yall why the sudden flux of antis crosstagging into our Sheith tag when I realized what happened earlier today.

The podcast.

The very same podcast where we see them gushing about the possibility of a maybe Sheith kiss in season 8.

Now I get where the antis are suddenly coming from.

They heard about the podcast and are being petty and bitter over the fact they've never had a podcast or even the cast themselves ever talk about a potential kiss for their ship like we just got for ours.

Now it makes me smile seeing the new crosstagging posts because my immediate response from now on will be "Shiro and Keith will kiss in s8!"

And they can't tell me it's not canon when the possibility has just been presented to us to maybe happen in canon.

Oh antis must be so mad they have no choice but to resort to their lame "incest/pedo" bs we've debunked seasons ago as their last line of defense--because if Sheith do kiss in s8 what can antis do about it? Nothing that's what.

Man, what a time to be alive where we get full on support from the cast and have tons of shippy art from the staff while having said team gush about our ship being a possible maybe canon ship in the final season???

Yeah now I get why antis are here annoying us. They wished they had what we have and are immature and can only whine about our ship like as if it'll stop us from shipping sheith.

It's a great day yall I'm feeling rejuvenated and I just fell in love with Sheith for the nth time. Kiss or no kiss, I'm just thankful Sheith exists for a goddamn podcast to gush about my ship with me!

And antis can be bitter about it forever idgaf.

"Shiro and Keith will kiss in season 8!"

Yall this is the only thing I'm thinking about right now omfg ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
