When you support a romantic pairing but keep it understated — you are not posting gifsets or writing theories, but you notice every moment, you privately root for them, and if someone asks you just say something like oh, they are kind of cute I guess while internally screaming. Low key shipping is different from a casual opinion; it is a quiet but genuine investment you have chosen not to fully perform. Sometimes it is because the ship is unpopular and you do not want the discourse. Sometimes you just prefer to vibe privately. Either way, the low key is doing a lot of work — the ship is not that low key.
I low key ship them so hard but I am not about to admit that in the main chat — the discourse is not worth it.
