Ships


"It's kind of how we pass the time."

This page is about fanon. Do not consider the subject of this page canon.

A list of ships (from relationship) present in the fandom. This list will be updated as the Library finds fics with these pairings.

At times, ships will not have names established in the fandom, and will have portmanteaus or the classic A/B method. The Search will propose names for ships and use them in the Library.

Canon Ships


These ships appear in the films!

Ship Members Ship Name (if available) Information
Teddy/Sacajawea Canon as of NatM 1; ambiguous as of NatM 4. Oddly enough, while they appear in a large number of fics, very few are actually about them. They settle nicely into the background.
Larry Daley/Amelia Earhart Flyin' Aces, NightHart[1] Popular during Era 1, but has waned in modern fics. Often seen in non-English fics.
Tilly/Laaa Canon during NatM 3.
Merenkahre/Shepseheret Canon during NatM 3. A similar situation to Teddy/Wea, where few fics are actually about them.
Nick Daley/Mia Canon as of NatM 4.

Named Ships


These ships were already given names before the Search started its fanfic library.

Ship Members Ship Name (if available) Information
Jedediah/Octavius Jedtavius The fandom's undeniable juggernaut. A good 80% of all fics made involve them being together in some form.
Alternate names: Jedetavius, Jedius, Octediah, Octavediah, Tiny OTP, TinyManLove, Octjed
Larry Daley/Ahkmenrah Tablet Guardians Fairly popular during Era 1 and Era 2, but lost popularity in Era 3. Currently on the rise again in 2025.
Larry Daley/Lancelot Knightguard Inspired by the deleted scene where Lancelot kisses Larry's hand; and the same scene in one of the novels.
Al Capone/Napoleon Bonaparte Capoleon In what other fandom would you get this? Uncommon, but not rare.
Sacajawea/Joan of Arc Femslash Figures[2] They hugged. That's enough for the lesbians. Bless 'em!
Alternate names: Sacajoan, Jowea, Girlbosses, Horse Girls, Passes the Bechdel Test
Larry Daley/Leslie McPhee Museum Dads, LarPhee Boss-worker relationships are always fun.
Ahkmenrah/Kahmunrah Pharaohcest I don't think murder counts as "wincest", folks.

Search-Named Ships


The following ships have been given names by the Search after surpassing the limit of a "rare pair" (15 fics).

Ship Members Ship Name Graduation Date Information
Ahkmenrah/Lancelot Courtly Love 4 March 2025 The name comes from the fact that they are a royal and a knight. Courtly love is a concept in medieval Islamic poetry and Arthurania.
Alternate names: Ahkmenlot

Rare Pairs and Proposed Names


The following ships may have individual instances from previous eras. These are the Search's proposed names for them!

Ship Members Ship Name (if available) Information
Octavius/Lancelot Tin Cans Hey, those hypnotic blue eyes... Inspired by Octavius's clear infatuation with Lancelot. The name comes from a common nickname for an armored character: a "tin can".
Amelia/Octavius Red Hots Inspired by a scene from the NatM2 original script where Octavius and Amelia flirt. The name comes from the "Red Hots" cinnamon candy, the usage of red with both characters (Octavius's red cape and fringe, Amelia's red hair), and the attractiveness of the actors (though this is subjective).
Jedediah/Lancelot Can o’ Beans The first fic was written for this pairing in 2024. The name comes from the Tin Cans ship, but given a Western twist: cowboys in media are often seen eating directly out of cans, especially beans.
Custer/Lancelot Military Blondes Dumb, blonde, and survived boot camp. So rare, only one was available for NatM Week. The name is fairly obvious: a general and a knight, both blonde.
Rebecca Hutman/Amelia RebeccAmelia Women that were written to be love interests for Larry Daley. Fuck that, they can make a better pair with one another!
Jedediah/Octavius/Lancelot Swords and a Stetson You are into macrophilia. The name states the obvious: Lancelot and Octavius have swords, and Jedediah's hat is likely a Stetson cowboy hat.
Kahmunrah/Seth Sethmunrah Your furaffinity is not available to view without being logged in.
General Custer/Amelia Earhart Smithsonian Veterans You’re just here for the himbos. The name comes from the film they appeared in.
Larry/Sacajawea You read the original script. In said script, there is a scene where Sacajawea gives Larry a bouquet of flowers while behind the glass.
Larry/Dexter Lexter Your browser history is actively being monitored by the FBI. This is shipped as a joke.
Civil War Mannequins The fact that half of them actively support slavery is outweighed by their comedy potential.
Amelia/Kahmunrah Pi Date She impresses every powerful man she comes across, charming Kah is no issue to her! The name comes from the ease of which they remember the π sequence.
Lewis/Clark Lewark Alternate names: Meriwill
Sacagawea/Amelia Earhart Alternate names: SacAmelia
