Faberry

Faberry is the femslash ship between Rachel Berry and Quinn Fabray from the Glee fandom.

Canon
Rachel and Quinn are both students at William McKinley High School, and are both members of the New Directions Glee club. While Quinn is one of the most popular girls in school, Rachel is on the bottom rung of the social ladder.

Season One
In season one, Quinn is head cheerleader of McKinley High's Cheerios. Rachel is the lead singer of the glee club, which has recently been taken over by Mr. Schuester. Quinn is dating Finn Hudson, the star quarterback who has recently joined New Directions. When Sue Sylvester, the cheer coach, decides that she wants spies on the inside of the glee club, she sends Quinn, Santana Lopez, and Brittany Pierce to infiltrate. Quinn and Rachel stand at odds with each other, mostly over their respective feelings for Finn. Quinn is shown to torment Rachel, calling her names like "Man Hands" and drawing "pornographic" images of her in the school bathroom stalls. In "The Power of Madonna", Quinn is seen drawing an ugly picture of Rachel in her notebook. The picture, however, is surrounded by hearts.

Rachel, on the other hand, does seem to show genuine care for Quinn, especially in the wake of the news of Quinn's pregnancy. However, when Rachel discovers that Puck is the father of Quinn's baby and not Finn, she tells Finn the truth. Quinn takes this well, even when Rachel admits that she only did so because she wanted a chance with Finn. Even after Rachel suggests that Quinn can beat her up to get even, Quinn refuses. Quinn joins Rachel and Mercedes later in the season to spy on Vocal Adrenaline. Rachel does not join Quinn in the hospital when her baby is born, instead remaining behind at the Regionals performance as the representative for New Directions.

Fanon
Faberry is the most popular non-canon ship in the Glee fandom. It is the second most popular femslash ship, rivalled only by the canon Brittana. It is the most popular ship for both Quinn and Rachel. Fans of the ship wanted to see Quinn and Rachel end their love triangle with Finn by ending up with each other instead. Many viewers thought that Quinn's tormenting of and seeming obsession with Rachel in the early episodes of the series were merely a way for her to disguise her real feelings.
