Needless emphasis on the romantic pairing of certain characters, often accompanied by portmanteaus of their two names with the dominant partner's name coming first. For example, one such pairing is:

Golem x Sapphire = Sapphlem

Is that not the most awesome name ever?

Examples

Golphire - Golem and Sapphire

• Employed in the Good Timeline. Though there is obvious sexual tension between the two during the Party Goers series (actually not really), Golem and Sapphire are married at the end of Gamehiker Member OG 2: On the Road Again and their relationship is frequently mocked throughout the rest of the series. They go through a particularly rough patch in Gamehiker Member OG VIII: The Final Parody, but are reunited at the end thanks to Golem dying and being reborn and Sapphire realizing how much she missed him or something. Ultimately leads to the birth of the Good Timeline Cobalt.

Donkeyphire - Donkeyman and Sapphire

• Employed in the Bad Timeline and an alternate Good Timeline future. The relationship stems from Donkeyman's unresolved feelings for Ruby Red, since Sapphire is a dead-ringer (or rebirth?!) of the female Festivity Attender. They meet some time after Member OG 10: Full Circle, where Sapphire agrees to help Donkeyman find his heart and, in doing so, finds her own heart as well. Aside from adopting the Fusion Kids, they also bear the Bad Timeline Cobalt. If you find this inter-species relationship disturbing, just think about Nick Bottom and Titania in A Midsummer Night's Dream. It probably won't help.

Luigi Cindy-Four - Luigi 64 and Cindy

Luiijii - Luiigii of the Pipes and Deijii

Thrancy - Thrakun and Quincy

• Employed in the Good Timeline. They somehow hook up in the end of Holiday Special: Happy Father's Day, Masa! for no reason except that Thrakun eats rocks and Quincy can make them. This is a completely pointless example to show how pointless shipping is!

It's also shown me how pointless your face is

Wait this article isn't about making pirate ships?!
