Gwen/Tyler, known mostly as Gwyler, is a rare pairing within Total Drama fandom. The ship is between Gwen and Tyler, both prominent characters. It was one of many fanon crack het pairings largely credited to Winter-Rae[1], a big-name fanwriter who was friends with several other big TD writer such as The Kobold Necromancer. After 2012, when Winter-Rae left the fandom, Gwen/Tyler largely fell out of popularity.
Common Tropes
- Sun/Moon Relationship Dynamic: Somewhat, with Tyler more cheery while Gwen's more gloomy in fanworks.
Gwen/Tyler Fandom
The longest Gwen/Tyler fic, as of 2024, may have been Winter-Rae's rewrite of Total Drama: Action, I'm on Your Side, which focused primarily on the pairing[2]. In 2012, she deleted this story along with all of her other Mature fics, leaving it unfinished and likely lost[3].
