A relationships update to SquidgeWorld!

enchantedsleeperIt's been a while since I checked in on SquidgeWorld (not since I last posted a work there at the end of July), so I was really pleased to find that they've implemented some new things since I was last there, including nonbinary relationship categories! That's an additional three relationship categories (alongside the existing F/F, F/M, M/M, Multi, QPR, Gen, Vs./Antagonistic, and Other): F/NB, M/NB, and NB/NB.
They don't have icons designed yet, so I'm looking forward to when that's implemented because I like having a full icon set (or as full as is applicable) on my works. (Plus, right now it looks like the works where I've tagged only a NB relationship category aren't tagged with any relationships 😅)
I didn't have as many works to re-tag as I'd expected, partly due to not having archived my full set of works over at SquidgeWorld, but also because a lot of the nonbinary characters I've written about in fic have not been in romantic relationships in those works. However, I archived an additional Starship Iris work for a threesome ship (really, it's more of a pre-threesome, but I'm counting it) that I'm fond of, but that I haven't written into any further works, and it's made me think about revisiting that ship, something I haven't considered in a while.
I also learned that SqWA had an influx of a couple of thousand new users in mid-September, which is exciting! I hope they stick around. Right now my M.O. for cross-posting anything to SquidgeWorld is a bit haphazard; it's somewhere I put up works that I haven't published to AO3 for whatever reason, plus some small fandoms stuff, and I also like to post things there that I can categorise in ways I can't on AO3, like the NB relationships and QPRs. Still, I'd like to add other works there, but I can't decide on a rationale (and I don't want to cross-post absolutely everything). Decisions decisions.
Speaking of archiving, I got some good stuff done on my personal fanworks archive during Small Web September, but I really need to get back on the horse and archive more works there, especially since I now have my fanwork page CSS sorted to my liking.
