shipping 

Fandom uses this word as a verb to denote their interest in the possible (and perhaps more often impossible) romantic relationship between two characters in a piece of fiction belonging to any medium. It's really never used in a platonic way, but if it ever is, people tend to separately emphasize that they are using it platonically.

Usually written: Character/Character or CharacterxCharacter. Fanfiction without any shipping, or with little emphasis on ship is usually labeled genfic, which there is a depressing lack of.

Person 1: It is a little weird how much I am retroactively shipping DoogiexVinnie.
Person 2: Yeah. That's kinda damaged. And Vinnie's like a little weasel. He's got a weasel face.
Person 1: But did you notice how weirdly gay they are for each other???
Person 2: No. Eww. Stop talking.

Naruto: Shippuuden 

Naruto: Shippuuden is the continuation of the original animated TV series Naruto. The story revolves around an older and slightly more matured Uzumaki Naruto and his quest to save his friend Uchiha Sasuke from the grips of the snake-like Shinobi, Orochimaru. After 2 and a half years Naruto finally returns to his village of Konoha, and sets about putting his ambitions to work, though it will not be easy, as he has amassed a few (more dangerous) enemies, in the likes of the shinobi organization; Akatsuki.

In Naruto: Shippuuden Naruto will do everything in his power to bring Sasuke back.

Ships passing in the night 

A sexual act involving two consenting adults that advances masturbation to the pinnacle of possible techniques.

In order to perform this act, each participant must sit on their non-dominant hand until normal sensation subsides and then commence to pleasure the genitals of the other participant.

Correct execution of this artful technique delivers the sensation of being twiddled by somebody else, by somebody else, by somebody else and by somebody else.

Barnaby Joyce: See ScoMo, I told you that the best way to align our policies was by trying out Ships passing in the night!
