I constantly think about the quote (literally no idea what it’s from) I read once about how teenage girls want to fuck their band guy idols because it’s the closest they can get to wanting to BE their band guy idols. Like damn… way to recontextualize my entire adolescence with 1 sentence
If someone is writing a fic that PROMINENTLY FEATURES a pairing of some kind, but IS NOT STRICTLY ROMANTIC, where whether it is platonic or romantic can be left up to interpretation, and the fic was written WITH THE INTENT of featuring that pairing (not intentionally being misleading with the tags), IS IT OKAY to use the / tag instead of the & tag?
Like, if I write a fic with a certain ship, and it's just about how those two characters meet, with a heavy emphasis on their dynamic and character, but doesn't end with them explictly a couple, is it okay to tag with the / tag if the writer genuinely thinks it will appeal to that demographic of reader and isn't being misleading?
I'm thinking of this especially in terms of rarepairs, where someone just wants to see that dynamic more, even if it isn't romantic. Sometimes just filtering by those two characters will just yield works that happen to include both of them.
Basically, what matters more: Accuracy of the tag, or the target demographic?
This does NOT INCLUDE just including a tag for the sake of boosting visibility. (Tagging as a ship when the ship isn't truly present in the fic just for the sake of getting it seen)
The writer is not intending to deceive a reader into reading their fic; they genuinely believe someone searching for that pairing will be satisfied by their work.
