Ok I wrote a better post but the draft got lost. Basically / is romantic or sexual and & is platonic and familial and I am an aspec person with a lot of ships that, while very much not being completely familial or platonic are also not completely romantic or sexual.
So I propose we use + as the tag for ‘secret third things,’ aka qprs and weird non standard dynamics.
Because yes, I do want to fed ex those losers. But they do not want to kiss each other. They want to snuggle but sex is gross. They are so in love but they’d rather kick each other in the nose than be in a romantic relationship with each other. You get it
Im also tired of seeing qpr ships that have nothing romantic or sexual going on with /, which is the romance and sex tag. I want to know if you are writing them as romantic or if you just think thats the only way they’ll be recognized
