>>64887849Okay let me explain more of what I mean then.
Let's take an example of an actual generic pair of female friends to demonstrate;
SubaTowa, they're pretty close as far as friendship goes, they have never once stated that "they're just friends" because that is a weird thing to say. They don't have anyone shipping them together, and no fanarts in romantic situations together (as far as I know anyway)
Contrast that with micomet;
They were just seen as friends too when they started collabing more frequently but then the "just business friends" thing started and shipfags went crazy why? Because if you've been alive in the world you'll know when a pair says that with such frequency you know they're trying to hide that they're not just friends.
I'm saying they know this and are deliberately framing it in that way to get shipfags hyping them up, but then any sane person knows they aren't actually dykes which is why it counts as yuribaiting.
