Sneak: The "intimacy" tag was intended for very close relationships, even if the exact nature may be unstated or ambiguous. (I figured the "romantic relationships," "queerplatonic," and "porn" tags would cover a lot, but there are some relationships where it's just not outright clear. For instance, in "the Undeparted," it's unclear whether Bones's feelings about Spock or Kirk are romantic, sexual, sensually intimate, or trauma blowback! Emi and Remilia never even speak to each other in "the One Within the Villainess," and while Emi is a shameless Remilia fangirl, the exact nature of Remilia's feelings (romantic? sexual? "this is the one person who has ever cared about me and I will DOOM WHOEVER HURTS HER?") are undefined.

...I also made it in part because I once mistakenly cataloged someone's autobio work as "romantic" when it was "queerplatonic" and that made me more careful about that kind of thing. <_< So if I wasn't sure, I could fall back on the "intimacy" tag.
