28 Adopting/Raising a Baby
29 'They All Work In An Office' AU
30 Body Swapping
31 Characters Swap Roles AU (I don't mean in the bedroom)
32 And They Were Roommates!
33 Unusually Specific Occupation AU, Like, The Author Clearly Has The Same Job
33 A/B/O
33 Selfcest (possibly due to time travel)
33 Hot Single Parent(s)
37 Actually Unrequited Pining
I mean, after about number 20, these become "I probably wouldn't read this story unless there was another compelling reason to do so" but above 20 is pretty much correct.
I am amused that the two shippy icons I have left - the ones that have survived the "well, I'm not really actively in this fandom anymore" culls - are the ones where the appeal of the ship, for me, is basically pure distilled loyalty kink.
