Came here to say this about OT3s - for me it's not about love triangles, it's about a specific dynamic between those three character (or the dynamics between them as pairs).

My main OT3 is Leverage, Eliot/Hardison/Parker. (For clarification - M/M/F). Hardison and Parker are a canon couple. At no point is there any indication Eliot is trying to date Parker, take her away from Hardison, or any other love triangle trope. But they work for me as a unit and as combinations in between that.

(An argument could be made that they're a canon OT3 based on finale/word of god, but I was shipping them way before that.)

Sometimes it is love triangles - I've written Wolverine/Jean Grey/Cyclops before, but it's not about resolving the triangle so much as me looking at Cyclops fighting Wolverine and going "Are you mad because 'your girl' wants to shag him, or because you do?"
