This. Sometimes, if I'm not even that into the fic, I scroll past the side pairing bits because I honestly just don't care.

It's actually pretty prevalent with Spamano, so I can see the OP's point. Unless one or both of them are shipped with other people, they're almost always at least a background pairing. It's arguably even worse than USUK, because both England and America have other popular ships with them, whereas Romano and Spain don't really have any (really popular ships, that is.)

Yeah I do that sometimes as well.

If we're talking about the side pairing thing, I think it's absolutely a lot more prevalent with Spamano than USUK (for exactly the reasons you stated). USUK has a lot more fics with them as the MAIN pairing of course... but there's a lot more variance with those two characters when it comes to side pairings featured in fics.

Yeah, to be honest - I can't actually really think of common pairings for Spain or Romano that pop up in the background. I think I saw Romano/Prussia pop up a couple of times, and there's at least one fic with Romano/America (but it has Spain pining in the background, so.) For Spain, I guess France/Spain? Sometimes? Maybe Belgium for either of them?

If I ever saw Spain/Austria as a side/background pairing, I think I would cry tears of joy.

Because of this, I can kind of understand OP's frustration, though not the magnitude of it.
