Examples

“Some shows have⟳ released official promos that play⟳ up the fans' favorite slash couples to court fans, most recently Hawaii Five-O and Teen Wolf, whose showrunner began to write⟳ the show⟳ itself in a slashy direction when he became aware of the popularity of “Sterek,” the slash pairing of sidekick Stiles and alpha wolf Derek.”

“"Teen Wolf 'Sterek' fans, we've read⟳ your (hundreds and hundreds of) comments and admire your passion," EW.com responded. "The reason⟳ Sterek didn't make⟳ the category is because it's not an acknowledged will-they-or-won't-they storyline." This controversy led the gay entertainment news site AfterElton.com to start⟳ an annual "slash madness" tournament. Sterek won the first.”

“Even a nascent fandom will begin⟳ to develop⟳ its own⟳ tropes. You could see⟳ it, for instance, in the popular Sterek pairing in the Teen Wolf fandom as it took off.”
