The term "AO3ple" is pretty terrific, at least, and I hope it becomes as popular as it deserves. If it does, this wank will have a positive legacy after all!

Ay-oh-threeple?

I might be too Homestuck for this; my brain insists it should be pronounced "Ah-oh-epple."

[cimorene]

Do you pronounce AO3 like that?!

[krait]

Nope, but I think that's because "OT3" was a thing before AO3 and its pronunciation is clearly derived from "OTP."

(Though I have been known to refer to AO3 as AOOO, generally followed with a werewolf joke...)

The letter in the middle of the word is what convinces my brain it's a Homestuck typing quirk, apparently.

That makes sense, like it's a "read this in Leet" flag.
