Hello! Do you know what "established sterek-freeform" means? Like, sometimes I see this "-freeform" thing along in the tags but Idk wtf this means. You guys are like, the queens of the tags so... a little help perhaps? Thank you so much for your work and sharing sterek and others pairs with us. I love how sometimes I can find something that aparrently is hidden in ao3 when I search for fics here.
Freeform is more of a tag wrangler tag. (tag wranglers are the fine people behind the scene who make sure that all the tags combine or make sense or decide if it needs to be an actual tag)
So if you want to tag something “established relationship” there’s already an option for that. But if you want “established sterek” that’s not **really a tag so it has ‘freeform’ after it. It doesn’t describe the story, it describes what type of tag it is. So the wranglers can see them when they sort out tags. I hope that makes sense?
(and some angry professor!derek as a reward for listening to my lesson.)
