Fanon
Oliques is one of the most popular ships between two adult A Series of Unfortunate Events characters. They are shipped in the Netflix adaptation only because Jacques has almost to none role in the books and Olivia is a completely different person in the books. Some fans call the ship 'Jalivia', but this ship name is rather confusing, since it can be for a fanon femslash ship between Olivia Caliban and Jacquelyn Scieszka known officially as Olivyn.
