out of sheer curiosity, i narrowed down ao3's filters to exclude any PC ships (no warden/hawke/inquisitor) so here's the most popular NPC ships

i am judging a couple of these but i won't tell you which ones

also good to note that it's not just excluding the tags, this excludes any fics that include a PC ship, so this is like. purely about NPCs, and the numbers would be different if we were looking at sheer tag numbers. this is not perfectly gathered, unbiased research, basically

#hilariously. isabela/merrill was the one i was mainly looking for and it was below 'minor or background relationships'#for most exclusion rounds #until like the last one lol #also not escaping my attention that these are all m/m ships except for TWO #i know that's how fandom swings but it's interesting #most of the PC ships are m/f i feel. need to double check that #yeah 16/33 excluded ships are m/f #6 are f/f #the rest are either m/m or ambiguous #interesting anyway that npc ships skew m/m and pc ships skew m/f #there's Something to Say about that but i'm not one to point fingers #this has been a post #dragon age
