People started shipping them together way back when Peridot was introduced in Warp Tour. Why? Because they were the only two Homeworld Gems.

Actually, they got shipped because they were always hanging out together in the background. (And also because the "sitting Lyra" and "Lyra doing human stuff" memes gave them a character concept to work with.)

Octavia and DJ Pon-3 are the ones who never interacted until Slice of Life and were originally just shipped together because they were both music-themed.
