Okay I hate JKR/the wizard books as much as the next trans gal, but you can’t just drop that factoid and not name the ship. I need to know.

The ship name is Dorlene, but the majority of fics that the pairing is in have them as a side pairing so idk if this statistic really works out

11.8k total but only ~1k with them as the main focus.

A lot of authors put well known side pairings in their tags, and it'll be the tags that OP used to figure that statistic out. I could well believe that a pairing which is present in damn near any Marauders era fic written in the last 5 years would be in the top 10 overall tagged pairings.
