A post for those who are new to the fandom and are CONF U S E D or those who want to know what this fandom has to offer. 

Timestamp for post: 17 / 12 2022, this is the current status of the ships. Mild spoilders ahead!

            Ship. Paddy Mayne x Eoin McGonigal, sometimes called Paddon.

Who??? The short, angry irishman( Paddy) and the taller irishman with black, curly hair and a wide smile( Eoin, appears in ep 1-3).

Descriptive tags. Angsty in the poetic, “one died too early” type of way, really beautiful, two-sided love, loss.

Canon content. Lots, great for all the canon-lovers out there, anecdotes found in biographies etc, new stuff is always ticking in. These two are a canon and irl couple what more could you possibly want?

Fanon content. Angst, fluff, basically all is canon complient, not much smut yet.

Widely known? Yes, this is the biggest and most accepted ship you will encounter in this fandom.

Ship status. Undead, one is deceased the other never lets go and therefore the ship is forever sailing the seas.

            Ship. Paddy Mayne x Augustin Jordan, called Maydan, MaydAn and on rare occations referred to as The Poet and The Philosopher, more of a descriptive nickname but everyone will know who you are talking about,.

Who??? The short, angry irishman( Paddy) and the lanky, french guy with dark hair and glasses( Augustin, appears in ep 5-6), they have an erotic scrap in the sand.

Descriptive tags. Brat vs Brat-tamer, love to get on each others nerves, shared love of poetry, horny.

Canon content. About as much as Paddon but every interaction these two have gives off the same vibe as a watersoaked, sparkling power outlet.

Fanon content. A lot of the fandom’s content is dedicated to this ship. Dirty as all fuck smut, headcanons, fics, AUs (so far: vampire/supernatural, modern, pirate), playlist, moodboard.

Widely known? Yes, this is the second biggest ship( at the moment).

Ship status. Alive

            Ship. Reggie Seekings x Johnny Cooper (x Mike Sadler).

Descriptive tags. Two huggable bears and their twink, super sweet and caring ship-dynamic.

Who??? The guy that looks a bit like Draco Malfoy( Johnny), the guy who is shirtless a lot, has a heavy british accent and lots of tattoos on his chest( Reggie) and the one who has a poker game in Cairo on Thursdays, is blond and is also in desperate need of a haircut( Mike, appears in ep 4-6)

Canon content.  Some, Reggie and Johnny have good chemistry and the real people the characters are based on were close irl. Interactions are subtle but interesting. Lots of anecdotes found in biographies that strengthen the ship.
