13 questions on this one. Anybody can take it. Even those who don't have an OTP. It's dealing with definitions so answer to the best of your understanding of the term. Also, I use OTP, but OT3s and OT4s are also applicable. :)
Hello, metafandom folks! Just a friendly reminder that this poll is about definitions. Which of the following qualities are required for an OTP? This may not necessarily match with your own personal OTP-age (For example. You may not hold with the belief that the characters have to be soulmates is a requirement for OTP-age, but in your specific OTP, you do think of them as such). Enjoy!

Is Spike&Dawn the most important relationship for you in Buffy? If not I would say it's more a 'lesser' relationship you enjoy than an actual OTP. But, meh, all of this is pretty subjective anyway I guess :p
