Just a heads up, I hate every single one of you that put me into this headspace to begin with. But here goes. Shipping.
So, I was watching the Real Ghostbusters episode, "Boo Dunit". There's a scene where Egon lands in Winston's lap, and Winston offers to read a story out loud to him. There's also a scene where Egon and Ray are bickering back and forth, and briefly there's a scene where Egon's holding onto Ray from behind for no real reason. And Peter? He's kind of off on his own, and other than a few bits where the other 3 regard him in annoyance, no one pays him too much mind.
So yeah. I can see Egon/Winston (And there need to be more of that, if you really want to Go There. Hell, Omorka? You wanna help me out with that one? :D), I can see Egon/Ray, I can see Ray/Winston, but Peter's....just this kid. He's lazy, irresponsible, makes messes, whines, and half the time is a hilariously useless little brat. The other 3 initially are supposed to be a few years older. But that's in the original 78 episodes.
When they retconned the show's continuity and got Dave Coulier to voice Peter, THEN he aged 10 years to about 35, grew a foot taller and become more robust looking. He became a completely different character who was much more in line with the other 3. But I always hated that version of him and the show was a flaming hot mess, so you want to ship that version of Peter, go ahead.
But the original Peter? Scrawny derpy little thing voiced by Lorenzo Music? Not seeing it, man. Leave the 'ships to the "grownups", and Let Cupcakes be Cupcakes.
(Obscure reference for the win!)
