Straw Poll - AO3 Tags

 When writing about friendships on the AO3, in the relationship field do you tend to use A+B, A & B, A/B, something else, or just not tag it as a relationship at all?

Oh, I just tend to tag it with the character names, put friendship or female friendship into the additional tag box, and leave relationship blank. It is entirely possible that I'm doing it wrong, though.

If it's just a background friendship, then I don't actually put anything in the relationship field. If the friendship is an important part of the story (or, you know, the entire focus), though, I put A & B since that's the canonical tag for friendships.

I use A & B when writing about friendships. Not just on AO3 either, it's been pretty standard for me for years.
