okay was anyone going to tell me that ascended Astarion calls MC 'little love' and 'my treasure' in the smoothest most sultry voice I've ever heard or was I just supposed to get absolutely smacked around the head with that knowledge myself—

So here's my thoughts, based on the knowledge that this poll was inspired by clingyduo actually accidentally getting married for the bit:
Afaik at least one member of each pair is already married, with the exception of bagi/Tina. I don't know enough about bagi or Tina to know if either of them is married. Due to most countries not allowing people to have multiple spouses at once, this is a significant impediment to accidental marriage.
If we ignore that, there's another logistical issue for every pair except grumbo, which is how long and tricky the process of marrying someone from a different country is. The more extensive the bureaucracy, the less likely people are to do it for a joke.
But let's assume none of these logistical issues exist, and just focus on the personalities involved.
Rendoc: they say A Lot Of Stuff (Ren most often, but Doc's not innocent either), and sometimes they are all in on the other's Weird Comment, and sometimes they are more bemused and reluctant. Typically, however, they go along with it. Ren will often heighten the situation, and while Doc gives of the sense of not being entirely sure how he ended up in this situation (Think sniffer butt). THAT BEING SAID, they tend more towards innuendo than marriage. I think they would play gay chicken and "accidentally" have a one night stand for the bit, but the idea of getting married wouldn't even cross their minds.
Grumbo: HAVE YOU SEEN THEM????? Fucking. Summoning circle rituals because they missed eachother. Years of friendship. Base neighbours on multiple occasions. Their "understanding" that essentially means that what belongs to one of them (on hermitcraft) belongs to both of them. Also. Grian's an EXCEEDINGLY chaotic bastard, who's very likely one of Tommyinnit's inspirations in the chaos department, and despite appearances, Mumbo's not much better. Grian (along with Jimmy, Martyn, and Joel) got a lordship title for the bit, so there's precedent for him filing paperwork for a joke. I swear to god, they ABSOLUTELY would accidentally get married, assuming that they haven't already. it would be completely platonic, and they would act like you're insane for questioning it, or assuming it is anything other than bros getting married.
Philza/Forever: I don't watch qsmp so I don't know enough to give an accurate assessment, but based on what I've osmosed, I think just the fact that they're on qsmp makes it a minimum 45% chance of accidental marriage. Although, again based on dashboard osmosis, I thought Phil's qsmp husband was Missa? So that maybe lowers it slightly.
Bagi/Tina: again, don't know enough about qsmp to make an accurate guess, but minimum 45% chance. The one clip of them I've seen raises it to 50%. (If we DO consider the previously discussed logistics, then they become the most likely)
Ethubs: ethubs. What can we say about ethubs. So like. Yeah they're insane about eachother, but whatever they have going on is not marriage. It's like. A magician and their familiar. The space between woven threads. A Mobius strip. A woodpecker and a tree. A sort of "I'll love you until it kills me". A binary star system that keeps almost crashing into eachother and destroying itself. actually thinking about it more I can absolutely see their relationship as married. The thing is. I cannot for the life of me imagine them actually getting married. And only partially because marriage would require etho to reveal his face, real name, and location to bdubs, and I honestly think he would rather die than reveal that sort of personal information to anyone online. So like. Yeah. Idk, I feel like any attempt to put a formal label on whatever ethubs are loses out on part of what makes them so fascinating.
So anyway. I don't ship grumbo, but they ARE the most likely to get accidentally married as a joke.
