Hornet (Hollow Knight & Silksong)
You're fluffy.
Okay, I have no fun fact, BUT, I'll explain to you what I think that Hornet and Ghost (The og playable character)'s family tree looks like in the aftermath of both games. Okay? Okay.
For one, White Lady x Mato. HEAR ME OUT. HEAR ME OUT. Mato is a really fatherly figure to Ghost, he literally considers Ghost his child after Ghost learns cyclone slash. And I feel like the White Lady would love that.
For two, Oro and Ogrim as the weird uncles that just show up sometimes and they like arm wrestle and shit at the family gatherings.
For three, Sheo x Nailmaster, I don't have to explain this, they are canon in game, and I feel like they'd just show up for family dinners and get everyone ugly Christmas sweaters.
For four, Hornet x Shakra, but I feel like I don't have to explain this. Warrior lesbians. And they train and raise Lace like she's their kid.
For five, this is a huge hear me out, but Tiso x Quirrel x Ghost, the arrogance, the chill, and the fucking insane, you will never convince me this isn't a cute ship.
For six, Grimm x The Hollow Knight, it's cute, I say no more.
For seven, Zote x Trobbio, both think of themselves as the best in aspects and I feel like both of them would believe each others lies, like Zote goes 'I have killed thousands of beasts', and Trobbio believes him and Trobbio's like 'I saved Pharloom with my plays', and they're like both super impressed by eachother's lies and don't know that the other is lying to them.
For eight, Bretta x Phantom, THINK ABOUT IT. Bretta is a fanfic girly, she leaves Dirthmouth to find her true love after fighting Grey Prince Zote four times, and not only is Phantom tall dark and handsome, but she's never been loved, so just imagine Bretta like writing fluffy fanfic about her and Phantom and Phantom reads it and she's like really flattered. IT'S CUTTTE.
For nine, Broken Vessel gets repaired with lifeblood and is named Smoky and is constantly sitting on the White Lady's lap and she's telling it that she loves it and that it's her baby. YOU WILL NOT CHANGE MY MIND!
For ten, Broken Vessel and Lace, besties and they bully other people together.
That is the end of my ted talk. For now.
