Small clarification because people anticipate an exception clause in 2025: This really is for *all* ships. Your OTP. The popular one with a zillion fics. That rare pair crack ship no one has heard of. The one that got banned from the thing that time. OT4s. Self ships. Friend ships. 🚢

Some excellent forms of nonmonogamy to apply to your couple ships where you don’t have a third/fourth/etc. person you ship them with, all free to a good home (or as many good homes as are there for them).
