On a Lighter Shipping Note
Cat. Cat, why? I've been doing good in the Les Mis fandom. Despite my joking about having an OT10, because I'm down with just about any combination of the Amis and Musichetta, I've really only been shipping two pairings for the most part. Granted, one is still a triad, but it's a canonical triad. Mostly. (I do maintain that all my weird pairing numbers, be they the threesome from Series One of Doctor Who or the foursome from Decade or the six from Gokaiger, have a great deal of canon backing. And the Gokaigers are aliens. Aliens should have different ideas about sexuality than us. Maybe a sixsome is normal for some of them!)
But after some of our recent discussions now I want to find some actual OT9/10 fics. Or at least some Courfeyrac/Combeferre/Enjolras/Grantaire/Courfeyrac to see if anyone would actually try to balance that relationship. And I don't even know how to go about looking for fic that has Enjolras and Combeferre as BFFs who complete each other but are in happy relationships with others but get off on hearing the other one sexually excited because, hey, soul-mates but not necessarily in a romantic way. I mean... how did we even end up talking about that? Is that a kink? How would you even go about looking for fic like that?
Shipping is hard when you're a panromantic asexual who for some reason likes fictional poly relationships.

I actually found OT7 a quite possible solution for Ouran as well, and managed to find a few fantastic fics as well (not many, but quality sometimes has to work over quantity, right?)
...admittedly, I've discussed and explored a loose OT10 before with les amis with some dyads and triads within it. (Even written something which was mainly cuddling with no real point.) However, as far as proper fic...
Actually, I've seen some fluffy... semi-romantic friendship things, and a couple where Jehan gets to make out with just about anything, but I don't know if I've seen proper OT9/10 fic before. If my librarianskillz find anything in the future, though, I will be glad to pass it along. :)

(If you ever want to talk tokusatsu, like Super Sentai or Kamen Rider or Ultraman, Cat and I are all ears. I have a list of pet series that I absolutely adore, Gokaiger being one of them.)
I never really looked into the Ouran fandom, but I'm all for shipping odd numbers of people so long as they all actually like each other. I may have to check this out now... and give myself an Ouran refresher, but that won't be a problem since I adored that show.
One of the interesting things about any large polygon with the Amis is that there would be a few dyads and triads within it, but it could still balance fairly well because all of them still love each other. If I ever find anything good, I'll send it your way!

It gets even better with the live-action version. Honey-senpai is the red ranger in Goseiger..... >D (and he's so adorable!!)
And Mori-senpai's actor actually got married to a woman (Mari Yaguchi, she's from Morning Musume and has been in a few things...) who is just under 5 feet tall. If that's not perfect casting I would seriously like to know what is. XD
I agree on that. Dyads and triads don't get in the way of the full group, it just makes for familiar and comfortable pockets within it.
