      Although I regard this as a romantic piece, it's not an MSR in the usual sense--our heroes don't ride off into the sunset locked in each other's arms.
    • 2000 March 5, Tim Scott, “Research assistance request”, in alt.tv.x-files.creative, Usenet:
      I'm writing an MSR (big surprise there) and I have a scene where M&S do a nice, sensuous slow dance.

      In the last couple of years, it seems like the vast majority of stories posted are MSRs. You rarely see a slash story posted here anymore.
  2. (uncountable, fandom slang) Such fan fiction collectively.

      I am a shipper, and yes, I prefer to read MSR.
    • 2003 April 14, pjay [username], “slash”, in alt.tv.x-files.creative, Usenet:
      Although I read MSR occasionally (and at one time did exclusively) the minute I discovered slash I was hooked.
    • 2006 June 12, jzjenn [username], “Paula Graves News”, in alt.tv.x-files.creative, Usenet:
      Made me want to read MSR again, and I thought I'd finally kicked that habit.
