Spidra, it stands for One True Pairing.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I don't know what you mean, Nicole.

OTP is a fanfic acronym for One True Pairing.
eg "Clex is my OTP" = "Clark'n'Lex2Getha4Evah!!!111!!" = "Those nice young men are just PERFECT for one another"
(I recently realised that I'm a Jilli'n'Pete 'shipper [ie fan of their relationship]. Indeed, I have pretty much declared myself Captain of HMS Jeeves. With my merry band of big-white-shirt-clad tars I'm sailing the high seas brandishing cutlasses and threatening to commit fic and random acts of gothicity.)

...our flag has a skull and crossbones and a nice top hat. Our ship is black, the sails are a delicate shade of pink, and everybody is wearing magnificent black leather boots and/or pointy footwear. Corsets and bloomers are very popular among the crew. We eschew grog in favour of nice cups of tea. We are arguably the most courteous pirates to be found on the high seas. I go under the name Dread Pirate Clovis, but in point of fact I am not the real Dread Pirate Clovis.

That's it. Pete, we're keeping Fay forever and ever. I hope you don't mind.

Do you have a gilded cage for her?

Not yet, but that's easy.

This may be the most fiercely creative four lines I have ever read. Yup, Jilli, we get to keep her.

I'm getting the pig!
I don't know what you mean, Nicole.
I *knew* you'd edit to make me look crazy(ier). Then again, it doesn't take much, really.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Thanks, Deb. Honestly, I am a fangirl and geek. I've attended cons. But I haven't hit many boards except for the Phoenix. And I've never read much fanfic so some of the terms are new to me.
