Threesome Subtext	comment	Subtextual implications in the story, about the possibility of a shared romantic and/or sexual relationship between three characters. This can involve an Official Couple (or as close to an official couple as you can get) and their best friend, the participants in a Love Triangle (or more) being far more friendly than you'd expect, a Power Trio with a close emotional bond, or just any trio of characters that, by the nature of their relationship and/or the plot, spend an awful lot of time around each other. Like most other Ship Tease tropes, it might be caused by the author fooling around, with the expectation that no one will consider this a serious romantic resolution, or by teasing the fans of that particular kink to stay tuned. It's possible for this to be accidental, though given the generally more complicated dynamics involved it's more likely to be intentional compared to other subtext tropes. Three-Way Sex and Polyamory are the canonical version of this. Twin Threesome Fantasy is related. Compare One True Threesome, the Shipping Goggles-induced counterpart. For other socially unaccepted romance subtext, see Homoerotic Subtext and Incest Subtext.

Threesome Subtext / int_15e760eb	comment	Chihayafuru's emotional core is the relationship between three childhood friends who bonded over karuta: Chihaya, Taichi, and Arata. It's billed as a Love Triangle between Chihaya and the two guys, but the boys have a close (if slightly more complicated) relationship with one another as well, and they tend to all be happiest when all three of them are together. In one atmospheric scene Taichi even says that he understands Arata's feelings towards Chihaya because she belongs to both of them. At another point, Arata says that he isn't interested in any team competitions because the only team for him is the three of them, then blushes and says that probably sounded kinda gross because he was looking at the moon at the time (a reference to a poem brought up earlier in the episode about a lover thinking about the object of their affections while gazing at the moon). Taichi seems a little flustered, too.

Kethry vows to have children in Tarma's stead in order to repopulate her clan; she offers to do so with the contributions of friends and one-night stands, but she wants to have someone she can love, and Tarma supports her in that. But they have to find someone who's also fine with Tarma and Kethry being as close as they are and with having children who're also considered to be Tarma's, which all makes things more complicated. In Oathbreakers they find such a person, archivist Jadrek, who ends the book saying he's come to love Tarma as well. Tarma, delighted, kisses him.

Threesome Subtext / int_2a8943c0	comment	Miraculous Ladybug: The villains Hawkmoth and Mayura are obsessed with getting his comatose wife resurrected. It seems at first like a case of I Want My Beloved to Be Happy, but Word of God confirms that Mayura has her own reasons for wanting Emilie back...even if she is jealous of her at times. This is borne out by later scenes, in which Mayura deceives Hawkmoth so she can take bigger risks in getting Emilie back. In the episode "Heart Hunter", Kagami and Adrien talk about how pretty Marinette is while she's third-wheeling with them. On top of that, Emotionless Girl Kagami smiles more in this episode than her entire time on the show until now put together - more at Marinette's Friendship Moments than anything else, though Adrien is a close second. Even though she is in love with Adrien and knows Mari is her rival, she genuinely doesn't want her to go. She looks especially happy when being princess-carried by Ladybug. At the very least, you get the feeling that Kagami wouldn't mind a three-way relationship. Marinette herself hints at the idea after the ice cream seller (whose wares are rumored to portend eternal love for couples who share them) suggests flavor combinations for each pair among the trio, and Marinette asks if there is a blend suitable for all three of them.

Seliph and Princess Julia will rule Belhalla together... along with whoever you paired Seliph with (with the exception of Tine or Patty unless you pair Tailtiu or Brigid, respectively, with a common dude). The most obvious example would be Seliph + Lana + Julia; Lana and Julia are quite close and in her lover convo with Seliph in the final chapter, Lana tells him she loves him but feels terrible about Julia, implying she both ships Seliph/Julia and has special feelings for the girl herself. Eirika + Ephraim + Lyon is practically canon, or at least it would have been had it not been for, well, you know... Making Shipping a central gameplay mechanic (at least since Genealogy) means the series is rife with this, particularly among groups of three where all involved parties are on good terms with one another. For example, Gerik/Tethys/Marisa in The Sacred Stones: Gerik can marry either woman if he has an A Support with them, but Tethys and Marisa, despite being romantic rivals for their chief's affections, consider themselves to be friends all the same. New Mystery of the Emblem: Marth + Caeda + Your Avatar. In the third base conversation between Caeda and your Avatar, she hopes that s/he will "stay her friend forever" and then goes on to say that they can "spend time together" to which s/he replies "Truly..."

It's almost adressed in the show itself by Carla: when Turk is about to ask JD to be his best man at their wedding, JD somehow gets the idea they're about to suggest a threesome. His Inner Monologue doesn't sound too averse to the idea. There's also a lot of subtext for Turk + JD + Carla + Elliot, with each possible pairing expressing a lot of attraction and affection (examples: Turk having sexual fantasies about Elliot, and Carla imagining being happily married to Elliot).

Ayumu jokes about this in the anime, after Hinagiku decided she was ruined for marriage because Ayumu had gotten a little turned on drying off Hinagiku (who had fainted in the bath). The manga is a little tamer about it, but implications are still there. The 'That's it' when Hinagiku admitted she'd fallen in love with Hayate could be read for such. Later on the manga has Hayate + Hinagiku + Athena. This is reinforced by the fact that Hayate made a promise to always love Athena and she is considered his ex-girlfriend by other characters that he tells about her and Hinagiku is later revealed to have quite a history with Athena herself with a friendship that looks an awful lot like classic Yuri Genre setups down to a Meet Cute with Hina opening admiring her beauty (though she's usually on the receiving end now). Hayate shows a lot of affection for Hina and seems to still have feelings for Athena. Hinagiku also seems to be the only one that Athena ever opened up to besides Hayate and they were known by the whole school as an inseparable duo. Given Hayate and Hinagiku's noted similarity to each other it stands to reason that Athena would naturally like them both.

With Roxy coming along on the Trickster ride despite her attempts to escape, this OT3 then goes after Dirk, who rebuffs their advances. Otherwise it would the creepiest OT4 ever. Karkat suggests this as a solution to the Love Triangle involving himself, Terezi and Dave (who insists he's not actually dating her), and suggests to Dave that they form a three-way relationship based on troll concepts that Dave responds predictably to. When Karkat tries to diagram it out it quickly degenerates into Dave grabbing the pen and making him draw penises with it. Dave clearly had feelings for Jade in the early part of the story, and was heavily implied to be dating Karkat in the post-retcon timeline. He ends up living with both of them in the epilogue. A more subtle example is John, Vriska and Terezi. Early on, Vriska and Terezi were Vitriolic Best Buds, John and Vriska became friends and Vriska developed feelings for John before she died. Later down the line, John resurrects Vriska and the two bond like they used to, while Vriska's bond with Terezi deepens even further, Terezi becoming Vriska's Moirail (and the alternate dead timeline version of her implicitly becomes girlfriends with an alternate Terezi before being destroyed). But going further, Terezi and John begin developing caliginous feelings for each other. By the end, Vriska mysteriously disappears after defeating the Big Bad, Terezi goes to look for her and John implicitly contacts Terezi frequently for updates on the search.

Obi has repeatedly complimented Zen's eyes, stared wistfully after him the same way he does Shirayuki, commented that Zen's smile should be immortalized by a painter and admitted to liking Zen without further clarifying the statement. Zen has reacted negatively to Obi receiving marriage proposals and the two of them occasionally sleep in the same room with Obi accused of sleeping in Zen's bed. Zen and Shirayuki are shaken when they see Obi meeting with a woman and Obi assures them that he was turning her down. Obi flirts with Kiki and Mitsuhide, and Kiki states that Mitsuhide is the man she plans to ask to marry her. In this case Obi is quite obviously messing with Mitsuhide for amusement at his reactions, and his flirtations with Kiki are used to cause a distraction or change the subject and never last longer than a sentence.

The Ho Yay between Roxas and Axel is bad (good) enough, but Roxas and Xion are borderline obsessed with one another and Axel quickly becomes defensive and protective over Xion as well. Xion outright states that she loves Roxas and Axel in one of her secret reports, and in the manga the three of them even contemplate running away and living together. Unfortunately this gets somewhat subverted in the end, as Axel's (indecisive) loyalty to the organization and reluctance to share information with either Roxas or Xion for the sake of preserving the friendship between the three of them ends up turning the entire relationship toxic and ultimately results in Roxas's defection and Xion's death.

After a series of Love Triangle-related misunderstandings, the two girls have decided to be friends, with Aoki supporting the idea of Miyoshi and Takagi getting married while she's admitted to them both that she's started to fall for Takagi. The foursome formed by Mashiro, Takagi, Miyoshi and Azuki: Miyoshi often act like a assistant/housewife to both Mashiro and Takagi, and Mashiro sometimes has the same reactions as Takagi towards her. He even once jokingly told her that he liked her right after Takagi did the same. There's enough Ho Yay between Takagi and Mashiro that Azuki herself lampshades it by saying she is bit jealous of how in-synch they are. Finally Mashiro and Azuki made the romantic promise to get married once they realize their dream and Azuki would voice the heroine in the anime adaptation of Mashiro and Takagi's manga, which means that their promise includes Takagi and depends of his actions as much as theirs, the Pen Name Ashirogi is a contraction of their three names. Miyoshi is Azuki's best friend and both her and Takagi refer to Mashiro and Azuki's dream as their dream. Whenever something happens to one of the couples, like the above-mentioned Love Triangle misunderstandings, it evolves into a crisis involving all four of them.

Legosi and Haru are the primary couple that the series focuses on, and the two of them are in an official, of somewhat complicated, relationship. As for Haru and Louis, the two of them used to have a Friends with Benefits relationship, and it was implied that they might have had deeper feelings for each other at some point. Finally, in a series where a Carnivore's desire to eat meat and sexual desire are often conflated, it's not at all hard to read a lot of homoerotic subtext into the scene in the manga where Louis allows Legosi to eat his left leg to give him a power boost in his fight against Riz.

While each of the characters in the triangle clearly have deeper feelings for one side than the other (Machika > Rain, Rain > Machika, and Yuca > Rain), feelings for the other side of the triangle do also exist in all three characters, and (by the end, after character development) those feelings are not possessive/exclusive. In the end, it's only finally resolved when one of them is forcibly removed from the equation due to plot events.

Unfortunately, Declan's sister, Fiona, is veryâ€¦ possessive of him, and constantly tries to sabotage their relationship. One especially blatant attempt at this ends with Fiona kissing Declan. Voluntarily. This wouldn't count as an example of the trope, except for the part in the next season where Fiona goes through character development, realizes she is a lesbian, and kisses Holly J. Again, voluntarily. And Holly implies she is still in love with Declan, who, before their breakup, told both girls they had to make up because he wanted to spend the summer with both of them.

Threesome Subtext / int_7cb620a7	comment	Surprisingly, The Hundred and One Dalmatians had a lot of this. So Pongo and Missis are a Happily Married couple, very loving, very stable—and then they have a large amount of puppies that Missis cannot possibly feed all on her own. So the Dearlys bring Perdita, a new dog, into the family as a milk-nurse and have her nurse half the puppies, and this goes on for a few days. Missis initially feels jealous of Perdita, but Pongo reassures Missis that she doesn't have to be, and eventually all three dogs are eventually raising the puppies together and getting along really well. And then, when the puppies are stolen, Pongo and Missis go out to find them, leaving Perdita with the Dearlys to comfort them. The two often talk about Perdita while they're journeying and wonder if she misses them. Note that the novel barely mentions sex in any way, so the only reason this isn't canon is because at the end, Perdita finds this dog she had puppies with before and hooks up with him. The whole subtext of this was avoided in 101 Dalmatians through the magic of Composite Characters.

In an apparent parody of Ship-to-Ship Combat, the Gil supporter proposes this compromise and one of the two love interests is making jokes about it. The In-Universe betting pool gives One to Five Odds on it. In the last panel of this page, Tarvek's expression and dialog point to some genuine feelings towards Gil, though whether this is friendship or something deeper is still open for interpretation. Probably best exemplified in the aforementioned side story.

First there's Meteora referring to Marco as Star's "other boyfriend" when taunting Star with Marco's unconscious body after knocking out Tom. And in the second to last scene of the episode, Star is hugging Marco after he's revived and Tom says he's going to make it awkward before pulling them into an oddly romantic-looking group hug, which neither oppose to. Tom and Marco also share plenty of Ho Yay through the episode, with Tom carrying his unconscious body around and defending him with an Heroic Sacrifice even when Marco reveals to have kissed Star, which Tom is oddly OK with.

You can choose to take the drow Nathyrra an the half-elf Aribeth. Romance sidequests are in the game so you can charm either of them, but at one point you meet the Knower of Names and can ask her the name of your one true love, who may be the other lady. This eventually results in a conversation where of the two of them talk to you about your conflicting feelings for them, and you have a Persuade check to convince them to "share" you. The two agree it's better than being rejected over the other. The sequence was Dummied Out, but a quick poke into the editor to change a single byte of code enables it again. If you choose not to reform Aribeth and have her remain a Blackguard she even goes for a Depraved Bisexual angle and makes a come-on to Nathyrra during the Persuade check conversation.

Besides Kei and Naru being the Official Couple of that series, Mutsumi was a childhood friend who participated in the infamous promise to get into Tokyo U and in the manga states flat out that she loves (not likes) both characters and wants to see their dream succeed, with Mutsumi kissing both of them.

In chapter 59, Mutsumi flat-out states that she made a promise with Naru, which means that each member of the trio made a promise with both of the other two members. And just to make it weird, Mutsumi made Naru promise to get into Tokyo U because she knew Naru was too young to remember her first promise with Keitaro, a year before that. Su has openly expressed interest in becoming a threesome with Naru and Keitaro. Given her character, it's very hard to tell if she was serious or not.

For a while, near the middle of the manga, it seems like all three of them could live peacefully together... However eventually the poly outcome gets thrown out the window when it's shown that Hazumu will die if she doesn't pick one. Tomari ends up with Hazumu.

Tedd has a (brief) Imagine Spot of all three of them in sexy outfits, Tedd gave Sarah clone forms of himself with the explicit understanding that she could do whatever she wanted with them, and Sarah is the only person other than Grace who has shown to be able to call him "Teddy" and get away with it. Plus, after Grace learns of Elliot and Sarah's amicable breakup, she feels the need to reassure herself by clinging to Tedd... and Sarah. While not canon, Dan threw the shippers an apatosaurus-sized bone at the end of a string of sketchbooks. (While the previous few had been by request, that one was not.)

Threesome Subtext / int_bfd7c6e0	comment	In Drowtales, since both bisexuality and polyamory are the norm in drow culture: Snadhya'rune + Mel'arnach + Zhor is canon, but Snadhya and Zhor are not romantic toward each other, they both know about the other side of the triangle and are happy for Mel. Even more so after chapter 44, where Snadhya pays for Zhor to be restored to his original dark elf body—suggested to be a prohibitively expensive procedure—as a "gift" to Mel, though knowing Snadhya there may be a nefarious purpose behind this. It's suggested Quain and Ash are involved in a similar relationship, with Ash'waren having multiple other partners. Fourth-Wall Observer Kiel ships herself with Nau ("Remember that I bid on you first when you're a tall handsome prince.") his sister Chrys ("Just so you know, in my great generosity I'm letting you have first dibs on her, but afterwards it's open contest!) and Naal ("Oh and add a princess to the lot just for fun's sake!"). Naal doesn't seem to mind, but Nau objects to Kiel describing him as "manly and tiny" and Chrys hasn't expressed an opinion either way. And Faen apparently ships Ariel x Sarnel and says they would "make cute babies", even though she has (very obvious) romantic feelings towards Ariel. Ariel for her part doesn't seem all that interested in Sarnel, but it's hinted she might return Faen's feelings and is in fact shown to later, while Sarnel doesn't seem to have an opinion on the matter all and actually stormed out in protest when he realized that his sister was trying to set him up with Ariel.

Chiaki is Hajimeâ€™s Implied Love Interest, with the â€œimpliedâ€� part only being because neither of them ever outright say they have a crush. Nagito similarly shows interest in Hajime, and comes very close to admitting it should you complete his Free Times Events. While Nagito isnâ€™t very popular among the group, Chiaki is shown to be one of the few people who cares about him, a sentiment Hajime shares until after the first trial, where Nagito orchestrating the first murder considerably sours his view of him, but itâ€™s still hinted that he still cares for him deep down, and they eventually reconcile after Nagito wakes up from his coma. And while he didnâ€™t fully know it, Nagito sacrificed his life in hopes that Chiaki would be the one to win the killing game. Unsurprisingly, a lot of promotional material showcases Hajime/Chiaki, Hajime/Nagito, or all three together. This isnâ€™t even getting into both Chiaki and Nagitoâ€™s interactions with Izuru.

Threesome Subtext / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: Rory + Amy + Eleven have a lot. Amy has on occasion called them "her boys," and they don't disagree. Amy is in love with Rory but obsessed with the Doctor and wants to fit them both into her love life somehow. The Doctor consciously represses his attraction to Amy (cf. "Amy's Choice"), but quickly grows to really like Rory with heaps and heaps of Ho Yay.note In "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship", the Doctor kisses Rory full on the mouth. Later, in "The Power of Three", Rory kisses the Doctor on the cheek, and the Doctor makes a cute little happy noise. Rory is completely Amy-sexual, though. The Doctor + Rose + Jack. The Doctor and Rose have Unresolved Sexual Tension out the wazoo and Jack is canonically in love with both of them, managing to kiss them both before they kiss each other. Their short time spent on the TARDIS together plays up the subtext for all its worth, especially the end of "The Doctor Dances" and all of "Boom Town". Blink and you'll miss it but there's the possibility for Ten + Martha + Shakespeare in "The Shakespeare Code", as the good Bard openly flirts with both of them. It's just one episode, but Eleven + Amy + Vincent is pretty strongly hinted, since Vincent has strong chemistry with both the Doctor and Amy, to the point of the three lying in the grass stargazing, all holding hands. What with the Doctor's ginger fetish and Vincent asking Amy to marry him, things might have ended very differently had there been no Rory. It's implied that River Song has had a threesome with the Doctor andâ€¦ the Doctor. It was her birthday.

So when the Love Triangle heats back up in late season three, they seem to all care so much for one another that it starts to feel more like a throuple, complete with Roy and Keely joining together to cheer up Jamie, holding hands on his childhood bed while looking at his posters of them both on his wall. In the end, Keely rejects choosing either of them, and is instead shown in a montage chatting happily with them both, leaving the possibility very much open.

Both the guys lust after her but also have massive Foe Romance Subtext with each other. There is an infamous line in later seasons where Spike claims to have not been intimate with Angelus except for "that one time" (implications confirmed by Joss Whedon himself) which probably happened when Spike was still with Dru. And, of course, when Angelus first shows up (after being de-souled) he kisses Spike passionately on the forehead, prompting Drusilla to gleefully squeal "We're a family again!" Was that even supposed to be subtext? Before Spike came along, Angel + Darla + Drusilla traveled together for quite a whileâ€¦ Buffy was involved with both Angel and Spike, and the two guys always had massive Foe Romance Subtext. The Season 8 comic book has Buffy's sexual fantasy, a threesome between her, Angel and Spike. While she wears a nurse uniform, and they're chained to her. There's Buffy + Angel + Faith, with Faith having close bonds and chemistry with both Buffy and Angel.

At the end of the series, Marcy and Sasha come to visit Anne ten years after the former moved away, with Anne musing on how things can come back to you after you let them go, and show creator Matt Braly has stated that the crew deliberately left their relationship open to interpretation.

Hanako and Lilly's routes have the most, as the two are extremely close Heterosexual Life-Partners and both of their routes feature the other to a great extent. Befriending the other is required to get either of them, and their routes in Act 1 don't diverge until the very end. It's repeatedly made obvious how much closer than normal friends they are, with Hanako saying that she loves Lilly in her route. To cap it all off, at one point in Lilly's route during one of their pyjama party/tea party get-togethers, Akira mentions that plenty of guys would be very pleased to see Lilly in such skimpy clothing, and goes on to add that he even gets to see cute Hanako in her nightie as well. Hisao deflects, but Hanako haltingly says that if it's Hisao, she doesn't mind. She doesn't seem to realise what she's implying, but everyone else sure does, and quickly change the subject. Early in Emi's route, Misha teases Hisao about having lunch with both Emi and Rin, and mentions that the three of them are cute together. Shizune's route features Misha very heavily, and Misha canonically is in love with Shizune, though it isn't requited. It focuses more on the friendship between the three of them than on Hisao and Shizune's relationship specifically.

Threesome Subtext / int_f655ed11	comment	In one Frasier episode, a case of misinterpretation leads Roz to believe that Niles and Daphne are asking her to have a threesome with them. The ensuing conversation is hilarious, and the fact that Roz doesn't seem too averse to the idea cause Niles and Daphne to mercilessly tease her after the miscommunication is cleared up.

Threesome Subtext / int_f6a54e75	comment	Kingdom Hearts: Sora + Riku + Kairi. Sora/Kairi are Implied Love Interests and the first game strongly implied that Riku also had a crush on Kairi (jury's out on whether he still feels this way about her, and if she has ever felt that way about him at all), while Sora/Riku spend a lot of Kingdom Hearts II and Dream Drop Distance being pretty darn Ho Yaytastic to each other. When it comes to the dynamics of the three of them together, Kairi comments to Riku in KHII that Sora is completely hopeless without them and holds Sora and Riku's hands between her own in order to let Sora see that what looks like Ansem, Seeker of Darkness is, in fact, actually Riku. The opening FMV of KHII briefly shows a scene of the three of them lying on a beach together, holding hands. The shadow of this dynamic exists in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days with Roxas, Axel, and Xion. The Ho Yay between Roxas and Axel is bad (good) enough, but Roxas and Xion are borderline obsessed with one another and Axel quickly becomes defensive and protective over Xion as well. Xion outright states that she loves Roxas and Axel in one of her secret reports, and in the manga the three of them even contemplate running away and living together. Unfortunately this gets somewhat subverted in the end, as Axel's (indecisive) loyalty to the organization and reluctance to share information with either Roxas or Xion for the sake of preserving the friendship between the three of them ends up turning the entire relationship toxic and ultimately results in Roxas's defection and Xion's death.

Threesome Subtext / int_f7301199	comment	Bandits: Kate refuses to choose between Joe and Terry and in the end it's made pretty clear that they're in some kind of three way relationship as she is standing with both of them at Harvey's wedding and she kisses each of them passionately in turn. It's also fairly easy to miss, but if you look closely Kate is clearly pregnant, raising the question, who's the daddy?

Threesome Subtext / int_f7ecf724	comment	Jyu-Oh-Sei: Thor + Karim + Zagi has several hints. Basically, Thor is in love with Karim, who loves him back but also loves Zagi, who is at least sexually attracted to her and also has an unhealthy obsession with Thor. Throw in a line about Karim wanting to have both their children, and there you go. Foursome Subtext with Thor + Karim + Zagi + Tiz; Tiz is in love with Thor but says she's willing to share him with Karim, Thor only loves Tiz like a sister but would sleep with her if it made her happy, and Tiz and Zagi share a touching moment that involves Taking the Bullet and Died in Your Arms Tonight.

Threesome Subtext / int_fee10fb0	comment	The Fell of Dark: During the rave, when an upset August uses his powers on the crowd, he involves both Gunnar and Jude in the bliss feeling, making out with both at the same time, while they hold each other's hands. While both are interested in August, the two do have a lot of unresolved things with each other. It turns into just text by the time they have a sort-of-threesome. The ending implies that the three will always be entangled together in that way.
