Talk:Wolf Spider

Oh wow does the ship name really come from this specific fic? ...I was *in* worm fandom before 2017 so theoretically I should be able to remember if the shipname was around back then, but I don't. -- Quaelegit (talk) 08:10, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

I think if it didn't start the name, it definitely propularized it. But it was the only fic about their ship for a good while. A quick search in the discussion thread has someone saying that they came in expecting real terrifying Wolf Spiders, but are happy that it looks like a fluffy fic. But the name as a ship name didn't seem like a thing when it began. But I don't think shipping fics as that big back as they are now. It was before when ship names like pillbug and smugbug got well established (which was more 2019ish I want to say?) Skitterpan is the only other big ship name from that time that I remember, but pillbug caught on fast. There's not really an alternative name for wolfspider that follows this naming scheme. 90PercentHuman (talk) 14:50, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
