timepiececlocknew fandom word: OWP = One Wicked Pairing
I hereby nominated OWP as an easy & convenient way to describe any person's unconventional OTP (one true pairing). For example, if you are both into Buffy/Spike and Buffy/Giles ::shudder::, then Buffy/Giles can be your OWP. Or, Buffy/Giles could be your OTP and Xandrew could be your OWP. Whichever.
For myself, Spike/Buffy is my OTP and Spike/Angel is my OWP.
For another example, Naruto/Sakura is my Naruto OTP. Kakashi/Kabuto is my Naruto OWP, because theirloveissogreyhairedandsordid.
Of course, most of y'all are probably going to ignore this post and never use this term. Such is the fate of being a fandom toady rather than a shiny, cool, fandom master. But I have a fondness for the phrase anyway, and maybe it will catch on.
