If you need to contact yours mods, raving_liberal & patchfire, for any reasons (such as posting community ads) please leave a comment here and we'll get back with you ASAP!

Welcome to ot3solutions! Your mods are raving_liberal & patchfire. If you have any questions that these rules don't answer, or you need to get in touch with us, you can contact-a-mod at any time.

General

• All posts in this community should relate to OT3 pairings in some way.
  
• Please do not change the default text/font (including color or size) or layout of posts for this community.
  
• If your post contains more than two images, if the images are not safe for all audiences, or if the images are very large, the images must be placed behind an lj-cut.
  
• Please do not delete comments, including your own. OWN YOUR WORDS! If you receive a questionable comment, please screen it and contact-a-mod We’ll address it as quickly as possible.
  
• Please tag all your posts. If the tag you need doesn't currently exist on our tag list, please let us know! You can learn more about tagging here.
  
• When posting fic, art, meta about a specific fandom, please note this in the subject line [ex. Fic: My Happy Triad (Harry Potter) or Meta: M/M/M OT3s (Teen Wolf)] as well as in the tags.
  
• Please contact-a-mod before posting an ad to ot3solutions.
  

Keeping it friendly

• This is a community, not just a collection of individuals. Please keep that in mind as you interact with each other.
  
• Treat each other with respect. No name-calling, insulting, etc. We’re all adults here and we know how to behave ourselves!
  
• Treat each others’ work with respect. When offering criticism on fic, artwork, meta, etc., please keep your comments constructive. Positive comments/feedback is always welcome; remember to let our writers and artists know you are reading/looking at their work!
  
• Differing opinions on fandoms, characters, pairings, and storylines are welcome. Bashing is not. Comments designed to insult fans of other fandoms/characters/pairings/stories, comments whose sole intent is to express hostility, or repeated negative comments (without anything positive to add) all fall into “bashing” territory. Please also take care when applying triggering terms to characters (such as “rapist” or “child molester/pedophile”).
  

Content

• Any and all posts relating to OT3s are welcome here, including fanfiction, fanart, meta discussions, and general "I'm so excited!!!" squee.
  
• Any and all fandoms are welcome here. Books, television, movies, comics, etc.; if it's an OT3, it's welcome!
  
• Please feel free to use this community to index fic, meta, or topical discussions on Tumblr.
  
• This community is for OT3/triad pairings only. OT4+, poly/open relationship pairings where the OT3 are not all three involved with each other, and two-person OTPs will find a happier home elsewhere.
  
• Please use appropriate warnings on your posts! The purpose of a warning is to let the reader know what s/he is getting before s/he clicks on the link/cut tag. Some subject matter is very triggering for certain readers, while other simply falls outside the purview of the types of stories that readers enjoy and feel comfortable reading. The following must be included in the warnings if they are present in your fic/art/meta: Child abuse (physical, emotional, or sexual), domestic abuse/violence, incest, non-con/dub-con, graphic violence, suicide/self-harm, major character death. If your fic contains these situations and you do not warn for them, you’ll be given an opportunity to update your header, after which time your fic will be deleted.
  
• We also strongly suggest you include warnings for the following: Minor character death, kinks (BDSM/slave, bloodplay, breathplay, scat, etc. — if it’s something you’d prompt on the kink meme, consider warning for it), Mpreg, underage drug/alcohol use, substance abuse, and mental health issues.

Title: Linchpin
Authors: patchfire & raving_liberal
Artist: naryakiuxen
Fandom: Glee
OT3/Pairing(s): Finn/Kurt/Puck (Fuckurt)
Characters: Finn, Kurt, Puck; appearances from Burt, Carole, Blaine, and Rachel
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: none
Authors' Notes: Originally written for the 2012 kurt_ot3bang.
Summary: Puck was pretty sure that planning on marrying Rachel Berry right out of high school had been Finn's dumbest idea yet, until Finn put Rachel on a train to New York City and told Puck he was planning on enlisting in the army. That's definitely the dumbest idea ever, and Puck can't seem to talk him out of it. Maybe the combined efforts of Kurt Hummel and Noah Puckerman can shove some sense back into Finn. After all, Kurt and Puck are the only two people who seem to care about Finn's health, mental well-being, and leg not being blown off by a landmine. Initiating: Operation Saving Private Finn.

Summary: A primer to "Triad Verse", a triad-normalized universe than can be applied to any fandom. A good place to start if you're new to Triad Verse.
Wordcount: 261

What is the triad verse?

The triad verse is an alternate universe (AU) where humankind has developed to normalize triads (relationships consisting of three individuals), rather than couples. Couples can and do form, but they are considered "incomplete" relationships. In most versions of triad verse, couples are unable to marry, but triads are allowed to marry. Bisexuality is also normalized, while monosexual people are less common and more marginalized.

Title: Laura Hale's Brother
Author: pterawaters
Fandom: Teen Wolf
OT3/Pairing(s): Derek Hale/Kate Argent/Original Character, Derek Hale/Original Characters
Characters: Derek Hale, Laura Hale, Kate Argent, Original Characters
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Betrayal, emotional abuse
Author(s) Notes: This is a Triad Verse fic, and is part of my teen wolf triad verse series.
Summary: Throughout school, Derek was known as “Laura Hale’s Brother.” It never failed to irk him, despite how he should have suspected it, given how things were at home. Maybe it wouldn’t have been as bad if Laura had been older than him, or if she’d been young enough to be in the grade below him. But no, Laura was four months younger than Derek and in the same class as him, year after year after year. It wasn’t uncommon for kids from two-mom families to have half-siblings in the same grade as them, but that fact didn’t give Derek any comfort. An account of Derek's life leading up to the relationship that ruined it.

Rating: G

Author(s) Notes: This is a Triad Verse fic, and is part of my teen wolf triad verse series.
Summary: Because Stiles was born two days before Scott, he always had to wait a day to celebrate his birthday. Scott always got his birthday a day early. Somehow, Stiles' parents never understood why this was such a grave injustice. Stiles had to wait the whole day of his birthday with just an extra hug from each of his parents and an extra cookie in his school lunch. He waited patiently the day of his birthday for the party and the presents and the cake, and ended up having to spend what should have been his eleventh birthday celebration in the hospital.
