By the standards of this board, if you mention 2 characters in the same post you are a deviated prevert. The mods will find out about your preversion and that you were organizing some kind of mutiny of preverts. Every time someone does this is worse than the last time.

Is it cold in here?:
The best I can do for now is link to a previous question about the shipping issue, and point to pwhodges's "realistic to the characters" standard. I'll try to get further clarification.

That is not how it is; see this post, and read the whole thread containing it.  There is nothing wrong with discussion of relationship possibilities that come naturally from the character and situation of those concerned; it is inappropriate or obsessive linkages or crude characterisation that causes offence.

In addition, you can always fall back on putting yourself in Jeph's place. If you would feel uncomfortable with someone discussing your brainchildren in a certain way, then avoid that line of discussion. As you imagine being Jeph, imagine that you'd been rubbed raw by previous occurrences.

I prefer to get all my shipping done by Fed-Ex.
