Short for relationshipping. The act of pretending that two characters who have never talked to each other will suddenly fall in love. Often followed by disgusting fanart and b-list fanfiction.
Very popular among fandoms, especially the Marvel fandom.
A synonym for cancer.

Ship is the term meaning you can see two characters of a fandom as a couple. They are not meant to be taken seriously, yet some people think they are. It's all a matter of opinion, and sometimes can start shipping wars.
Usually ships are not canon. Once they become canon, they are no longer considered a "ship."

Noun, {ship}

Can become addictive to the point where you believe it's true and post it on social media's
But can also be 'safe' where you realize it IS a fantasy, and is all in good fun
But let's be honest, we all want the people we ship to come out as a pair someday... we can dream

A derivation of "relationship"
Wishing for a relationship between real or fictional characters.
You don't ship people who are already in a relationship together, that's just called being happy for someone.
