OKAY, SO, AS FAR AS ARBITRARY DEFINITIONS OF FANDOM SLANG, GO, what are the restrictions on "OTP"?

You can only have one OTP per fandom. (eg. If you OTP Ron/Hermione you can only "ship" Harry/Ginny, not OTP them.)

OTP just means something you ship really hard, regardless of overlap or conflict or number. (eg. Ron/Hermione and Ron/Luna OTP!)

You can only have one OTP at all. (eg. RON/HERMIONE OR BUST)

ladysophiekitty: Doctor/Rose stuff of legendladysophiekitty on October 21st, 2011 05:10 pm (UTC)
I've had 4. Angel/Cordelia, Doctor/Rose, Arthur/Morgana, and Harry/Hermione. Of those I'd say Doctor/Rose is the strongest, because that's what has consumed my time this past year. I will occasionally still do something about the others (mostly out of nostalgia) it is ALL about Doctor/Rose in my mind.
