What Does This Mean?
A fandom argument that a proposed pairing is more credible because it mirrors an earlier couple in the same story, so the newer ship is treated as a kind of echo or successor of the older one.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
""Her ship parallelism post argued the new couple repeats the first season's love story beat for beat.""
