Canon: ParaNorman
Pairing: Norman Babcock/Neil Downe
Canon Level: Friends
ParaNorman is an adorable movie, and Norman and Neil are completely adorable too. Norman is a sweetheart, an oddball kid who just wants to be accepted without having to change who he is and who likes making friends. (It just happens that virtually all his friends are ghosts.) And Neil is a sweetheart too, loyal and upbeat and a little stubborn. Their friendship is super cute! Neil thinks Norman and what he can do is super neat, and Norman has a friend who not only accepts him but is enthusiastic about Norman being Norman.
Sadly for me, the fandom is a lot more into pairing Norman with Dipper from Gravity Falls. And I totally get why the pairing is popular, but I have almost zero interest in it because Neil is right there! Being the best!
