A term drawn from fanfiction in general. Short for "relationshipper", it can be used to describe romance authors or stories. Early in the fandom history, the most common form of shipper was match-ups between Daria and Trent (a.k.a., Daria/Trent). In more recent years, the variety of relationship match-ups has expanded considerably, sometimes to absurdity.
Gay or lesbian shippers written about same-sex character pairs are called slash fiction or "slashfic," for the slash mark separating the names of the two lovers when referring to such tales. Daria/Jane is probably the most common form of slash in Daria fandom. Further discussion of slash fanfic appears under that heading; the remainder of this article discusses only heterosexual match-ups.
