My answer to "how hard do you ship the OT3?" is actually a little more complicated than that, hmmm.
I ship NaruSasuSaku as an all-out sexual threesome slightly less than I ship SasuSaku and slightly more than I ship NaruSasu (and a lot more than I ship NaruSaku XD).
I "ship" SasuSaku+Naru semi-platonic bonds-of-destiny-forever-together-like-a-family with Sasuke and Sakura together romantically and Naruto being their mutual best friend (and semi-brother figure in Sasuke's case) who isn'tusually sleeping with them but flirts with Sakura and has the occasional UST with Sasuke...
...more than any of the above.
I know a lot of OT3 fans consider this to be leaving Naruto out, but it honestly doesn't feel that way to me.

On the OT3-I simply don't ship it. I know it is possible but not my cup of tea.
To me your interpretation feels very canon-y, and that's the next best thing to them all sleeping together as far as I'm concerned. But I seriously don't think Naruto NEEDS to be sleeping with them to maintain powerful bonds, so that works fine too. He's gonna be their best friend and uber-important teammate whatever happens anyway.
...It's just funnier when they're also having team bed-acrobatics to me, is all. u.u

Damn it, I are STUPID. I checked three ticky's before I saw your request for 2. Take away one ticky for DBZ, sorry sorry!
*Throws a random pairing at you, just cuz.* Eclectic is good, right? :D
Huh. I don't know if I like yaoi or het better. So I just chose the top one!
Ticky ticky ticky ticky ticky...!

Yeah, I totally dig people liking the more sexual version better, so long as they're not bitching about those stupid SasuSaku fans who ruin the OT3, like I've seen in the past. u_u
And here I was wondering why the closest "pairing" I'd vote for in the Kakashi section was Kaka/Icha/Hand. XD;; I knew there was something missing! haha
My vote would have gone to KakaGai had it been there. ♥

I feel lonely in my Neji/Hina shipping
/sob
They're my only other OTsomething besides NaruSasuSaku

-__________-;;;; That's retarded. What was their argument exactly?
... There was a girl who bugged me a while back, about how I should write a sasunarusaku instead -- as in, Sasuke and Sakura both wanting Naruto, but not wanting each other at all. Umm what. I understand prefering NaruSasu and NaruSaku, and liking a Naruto-sandwich better, but how the hell is it possible that Sakura might fall out of love with Sasuke hard enough to boost him back to platonic-don't-even-want-to-leer-a-bit status, and yet be just fine with sharing her boyfriend with him even in bed and other sexual situations? I just can't wrap my brain around it. I might be able to read a time-share, but the fic better not handwave the awkwardness and new distance between Sasuke and Sakura away and pretend the team is still perfectly balanced. ~__~

I don't remember the details, just that there were people on the anonymeme a while back complaining about how there needed to be less Team 7 OT3 fanfic that was actually just SasuSaku. I've never seen stuff labeled as "NaruSasuSaku" that actually turned out to be just SasuSaku-where-Naruto-is-allowed-to-join-in (although I've seen a fair amount of NaruSasu-where-Sakura-is-allowed-to-join-in...), so I figured they were referring to some of the fics I'm fondest of, where the dynamic-as-I-see-it-in-canon is explored. >_> (I'm pretty sure I've seen mutterings to this effect elsewhere, too, but I can't remember exactly where, so take it with a grain of salt.)
...and now I'm tempted to try to write NaruSaku-and-NaruSasu-on-a-timeshare and do it well, because that's always my temptation when I hear about badfic ideas, but I know that by the end there'd be SasuSaku again. XD Because for me it will forever be about the Sasuke sandwich.

XD yessss. Especially since the way I see it Sasuke and Sakura would have to learn to be closer if they are to learn to share Naruto and not go too jealous and possessive and uncomfortable, and that would probably awaken old feelings they pretended went away, so they would at least share tenderness.
Okay it might be done if the writer really sees Sakura's feelings as a silly crush that goes away, and Sasuke as... not a possessive bastard somehow... (but in that case, oi vey would they have to be convincing about how Sakura is fine sharing her TRUE true love with her ex-crush who left like a dirty traitorish asshole...)
Noooo, don't do eeet ... besides you have other, more interesting fics to work on, hint hint.

I have no favorites! Woe! I don't know what to pick.
It all depends on whether I feel like pairings that make sense, or pairings that are just hot and sexy. SasuNaru/NaruSasu, hot, yes, but I wouldn't say I like it more than InoNaru. It's just different!
;_;
...But you should write more ofic, yes, because it is ♥

Hey! D: I do (http://kylara.livejournal.com/327867.html) like it!
:D Just how I wanted to be remembered. <3

Arg, I should have filled in the blank: SAKURA/INO.
Also, tick! to yaoi, yuri, and het. LOVE FOR ALL, BABY.

I'm pretty easy to please - incest is one of my squicks, though. Can't stand it in any fandom, even when it's not full of hate and rape and violence... and ItaSasu pretty much by definition is going to be like that or else total OOC. The closest I can handle would be two siblings sharing a partner, which isn't the same thing even if they're all in bed together.
I know, I know! Dammit, if Kishimoto does this next year with its focus on Sasuke, Kakashi, and Sakura well, I may have to cave and start writing Naruto fic again. D:
