Not my favorite trope, but maybe I like it more than I think. A list of ships consisting of characters who started as friends and became lovers/romantically involved (or I WISH).

  • Mulder/Scully (X-Files)
  • Clark/Chloe (Smallville)
  • Lee-Leng/Kajika (Hanasakeru Seishounen)
  • Logan/Veronica (sort of; friends to enemies to lovers)
  • Mugen/Fuu, Jin/Fuu, Mugen/Fuu/Jin (Samurai Champloo)
  • Draco/Theo (HP)
  • Holder/Linden (The Killing)
  • Caleb/Spencer (PLL)
  • Carrie/Quinn (Homeland)
  • Arata/Chihaya/Taichi (Chihayafuru)

Or, tropes from Television Tropes & Idioms that I frequently find myself noting.

  • Informed Attribute: A violation of Show, Don't Tell when fleshing out a fictional tangible. Something is said to be X, but not shown to be that way.
  • Amazon Chaser: For every trope, there is a flip side. The flip side to No Guy Wants An Amazon is the lady who's attractive because of her Amazon-ness. For instance, the guy could be looking for a Violently Protective Girlfriend, the other half of his Battle Couple, or simply finds a woman who refuses to submit and challenges him very enticing.
  • Shipping Goggles: Shipping Goggles is when a viewer interprets the smallest, most ambiguous canonical evidence in favor of their ship of choice, even if said "evidence" is insignificant relative to other evidence, or outright nonexistent.
