Shipping= You enjoy seeing character X and character Y(Or more characters) in a relationship.

Platonics= You enjoy seeing two or more characters interact in a purely platonic way.

Shipping:

Yuuka/Wriggle
Mostly because of Yuukarins youkai_moe, and Wriggle being the cute little gentleman she is, pushing Yuukas moe meter into overload.

Yukari/Yuyuko
It may or may not be one-sided on Yukari's side.

Marisa/Alice.
But no tsundere Alice, please.

Platonics:
Yuyuko-Youmu
Yuyuko troubling Youmu has the potential to end in great LULZ.

Chen-Ran
Since Chen is a cat, Ran probably has a lot of parenting to do.

Cpt. Murasa-Kogasa and Nazrin
I like to think these three make up a dysfunctional pirate crew(Thanks alot, littleshrimp).

Kaguya-Mokou
These two have a Tom and Jerry thing going on, and I like the hesitant sort of "freindship" they've reluctantly built up.

Satori/Okyuu/Orin-Koishi
Satori doting on her little sister is adorable. Having her interact with Okyuu or Orin is cute, to say the least.

Platonic:
Cirno and Chen

Kawaaaaaaaaaaai

Youmu and Reisen

Bang bang slice slice

Shipping:

Cirno and Suwako:

"I froze one of your frogs but it's not like I LIKE YOU OR ANYTHING!"

Cirno and Daiyousei:

"I um.. I just find you really cool and.. I love the way you freeze things.. um *fidgets with her dress* this is so embarrassing"

Youmu and Kaguya:

"I will protect you no matter what!"

Alice Vs. Marisa Vs. Patchy:

"WHY IS THIS SO COMPLICATED!"

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is what is commonely referred to as OTP.

You have a point though, shy and good-girl nature go well together.

Although it's a bit hard to see how all girls-->Rinnosuke would work out. He'd either be the most fortunate or unforntunate man alive.

Personally, I prefer no yuri in my Touhou.

But as far as friendly relationships go, I pretty much like the established basics. Sakuya & Remilia/Flandre, Yukari & Reimu, etc.

You can't deny theres a love triangle between Marisa, Patchy and Alice though Even if nothings GOING ON, there is something just lingering there. Those feelings.

Platonic:
Marisa & Nitori
>Partners in SCIENCE!  This is mostly fueled by the song Optical Cellophane and the fact that Nitori and Marisa can be partners in SA.

Rinnosuke & Tokiko
>I imagine Tokiko would keep coming back to Kourindou to get her stolen books, and eventually Rinnosuke would give them to her...as well as name.  She didn't get a name in canon, but I've seen fanworks where her name was given to her by Rinnosuke.

Suika & Reimu
>Miko Miko Suika

Parsee & Yuugi
>Yuugi would probably be the first person to reach out to Parsee after noticing how lonely she looked.  Pretty much stuck in my mind thanks to fanworks.

Chen & Orin
>They're cats, of course.  They'd have all sorts of adventures and be cats and stuff and have snacks afterwards.

Kikuri, Konngara, & Mima
>All the bosses from HRtP's Jigoku path form a trio of FRIENDSHIP.

Meiling & Patchouli
>No idea.

Shipping:
Reimu & Koakuma
>There's absolutely no backing to this pairing; I don't even know if I'm taking this seriously xD

Yeah, I got nothing.  There's over a hundred characters, and yet...

I see absolutely nothing.

Alice and Marisa seem like the friends who mock each other for every little thing, while I think Patchouli only lets Marisa steal all her stuff because she enjoys being able to help a fellow magician learn.

But a love triangle? Nope, nothing there.

Well I'm not really a fan of any pairings relationship-wise though as long as they make sense I don't really mind any fanon relationships.

But as far as friends go...

-Reimu and Suika
I just love the possibilities for the relationship between the two. Reimu is the annoyed friend and Suika is the excessively happy and laidback friend. And for whatever bizarre reason I just think Suika helping out around the shrine is cute. And Suika is totally still living at the shrine! In my heart... ;.;
Either way, I never really liked the idea of her living in heaven much.

-Yukari and Reimu
Well, not so much them being friends as Yukari being a pain in the butt for Reimu. I like to think of her as a mentor for Reimu of sorts who gives Reimu hell just to keep her on her toes.

-Parsee, Kisume, and Yamame
Maybe just because I like the three of them, maybe just because of that one Walfas flash, so I guess this is purely fanon related. I like to think of Kisume and Yamame as sort of best friends with Parsee as a close friend they put up with because they know she doesn't mean a lot of what she says. But I also have a sort of tsundere Parsee in my mind... >.>;

Platonic:

Kourin & everybody (especially Nazrin)
Marisa & Patchy & Alice - I refuse to see anything romantic here, though. And fuck the supposed rivalry, Patchy and Alice hit it off.
Eirin & Sakuya (obligatory danbooru warning) - Mother-daughter implications optional.
Cirno & Letty
Naz & Kourin (warrants mentioning again)

Ships:

Meiling X Sakuya - hold the knifing, though.
Eirin X Reisen - Again, downplaying the abuse. Also no futa. Kinkiness is A-OK.

There are really only two couples I 'ship in my head.
The first is your bog-standard VERY reciprocated Yuyuko/Yukari.
The second is a bit of complete crack.  Lily/Yuka.  I just think they're meant for each other for some strange reason.
This is despite the fact I think Remi/Sakuya is pretty damn close to canon...I just still don't like it as more than master and servant.

But as for just interactions I like to see...
Yeah, SW's "entire Palace of the Earth Spirits" is probably on top of my list.  So...freaking...cute...
Marisa playing off of her teammates/Kourin/Reimu is just awesome.
Yuyuko and Youmu.  Complete and absolute devotion, without the need for fate hax.  And Yuyu knows how to use it for maximum lulz.
Remilia in full-on Lawful Evil mode with the rest of SDM.  Patchy is a bonus.
Prismriver Sisters, whether feuding or cooperating.  They kinda hit the same bit on me as the SA cast, just not nearly to the same degree.
And of course we can't forget Team Science!  Even if they never met, just the concept of getting Nitori, Rika, Rikako, and Yumemi in the same place makes me feel all tingly.
Life and death are without purpose.  Our attempts to give them one are quite presumptuous of us.  But in the end, we exist, and that is enough.

Current status: Dissuading deliberately choking for imagined fame.

Agreed.  I'd rather nobody else did any of that crap either, but with an almost entirely female cast it's a given it'll happen.

You can't deny theres a love triangle between Marisa, Patchy and Alice though Even if nothings GOING ON, there is something just lingering there. Those feelings.
I can deny it very easily because there's absolutely nothing indicating that exists.

I see absolutely nothing.

Alice and Marisa seem like the friends who mock each other for every little thing, while I think Patchouli only lets Marisa steal all her stuff because she enjoys being able to help a fellow magician learn.

But a love triangle? Nope, nothing there.
Agreeing with this.  Though I don't think she "lets Marisa steal all her stuff" so much as "is physically ill and is unable to keep her out".

I like the common ones like:
Marisa and Alice
Keine and Mokou
Yuyuko and Yukari

And the no semi-common ones like:
Reimu and Sanae
Patchi and Remi

And an off the wall one:
Yuugi and Kanako and sometimes Shou

And platonic stuff with:
Youmu, Sakuya, and Reisen
Medicine and Kogasa

It's all in good fun.

Eh, could be a little of both. If Patchouli really thought it was that big of a deal, she'd probably ask one of the other SDM residents to do something about it, and I'm sure most of them would happily oblige.

Hmm, I've always thought it was a bit of a one-sided friendship: Patchouli is generally not interested in people, and therefore has lacking social skills. Marisa is one of the few people that intrigue her, and she occasionally stops to chat with Patchouli while stealing books. Patchouli, unsure of how to communicate, either brushes her off, because she knows how to do that as a normal person, or occasionally stops her with danmaku for a duel, if she's feeling in the mood. Also, she'd get worried and lonely if Marisa takes lnger than usual to come steal books, since she considers her "a freind" in some sort of way.
