释义

relationshipper

English

Etymology

From relationship + -er. Emerged in early online fandom of the television series The X-Files as a term for fans who supported the possibility of a Mulder/Scully romance.[1][2] First attested on alt.tv.x-files in January 1996,[3] but it was seemingly already in use by then.[4]

Noun

relationshipper (plural relationshippers)

  1. (fandom slang) A person who supports a romantic or sexual relationship between fictional characters or real people.
    • 1996, Paul Mitchell, The Duchovny Files: The Truth Is In Here, page 190:
      I don’t care what the relationshippers say, it’s just so OBVIOUS to try to get the two of them together and the X-Files has never been obvious.
    • 2002, Tom Kessenich, EXaminations: An Unauthorized Look at Seasons 6-9 of The X-files, page 4:
      There were the relationshippers whose focus was on Mulder and Scully’s relationship, or the MSR as it was called (with a possible emphasis on romance).
    • 2012, Lily Rothman, "'I'd Very Still': Anthropology of a Lapsed Fan", in Joss Whedon: The Complete Companion, page 134:
      In media fan lingo, the idea of an OTP—the One True Pairing, a fan's absolute favorite fictional couple—can be tossed around rather casually. In terms of my history as a relationshipper, Willow and Oz will always be mine, but the real OTP in my fan identity is Buffy and me.
