WHY THE FUCK DID I JUST SEE A FARQUAD x PREMINGER EDIT?

The ideal ship dynamic is a tall, gorgeous, talented brunette with a disregard for social cues, who stands apart even among their own people, and a slightly traumatized Chris Pine

Welcome to the quarterfinals of the Unofficial Top AO3 Relationships Bracket!

Many people on Tumblr might have engaged in the practice of "shipping" in relation to "media". Some, according to legend, even have opinions on these matters.

If the above happens to apply to you, you might be eligible to vote in this bracket! We have pitted the most popular pairings on archiveofourown.org against each other to see who will emerge victorious. Round 5 polls drop on Sunday October 8th at 3PM CST, and will run for one day.

Check current vote counts here!

Further information is below the cut!

How was the bracket made?

This bracket was made based off centreoftheselights's data on the most-written pairings of all time, and edited to fit into a workable bracket. Matchups were seeded according to number of works.

This is a platonic/familial relationship, not a ship! Why is it on a ship bracket?

The top relationships on AO3 include both platonic and romantic/sexual relationships; so does this bracket. If the relationship is formatted as "[Character X] & [Character Y]" it is not a romantic pairing. If it is formatted as "[Character X]/[Character Y]" it is. (For efficiency, when a pairing showed up as both & and / in the data, only the higher-ranked version was chosen.)

What are your stances on voter fraud, etc.?

Fight for your blorbos however your honor dictates (though we ask that you don't DDOS Tumblr, and preferably do not commit any murders which can be traced back to us).

I have an issue with [x] being included in this poll.

This poll is a celebration of fandom history; we're aware that there are certain issues with many of the listed pairings and sources, but they are a part of that history. Please do not take this as an endorsement of anything included in the bracket, and refrain from harassment.

In general, please remember that this is intended to be a fun time for the wide community which is fandom culture, and treat each other with respect!
