014 is the non-binary ship between Zero and Fourteen from the Battle for Dream Island fandom.
Canon[]
Subscriber specials[]
During the lava apocalypse, Zero sends out a message using a satellite telling the algebraliens to come to his bunker. As it reaches Fourteen in a jail cell with Ten, he takes the sound waves and eats them, calling them appetizers. Because of this, neither of the two got the message to hide in Zero's bunker.
The Power of Two[]
At the start of the flashback to the algebraliens playing around, Fourteen lurks above a bench looking around. Hiding behind a tree, Zero nervously peeks out and is spotted by Fourteen who takes out a fork and knife. As he is being chased by Fourteen, Zero pleads Fourteen not to eat his skin and asks him to consider taking one of the other Zeroes instead. Zero accidentally bumps into Five while running and causes Eight's stack of cards to collapse. Irritated by this, Three orders Zero and Fourteen to go back to Fifteen's cabin since they cannot behave in the grasslands. Zero walks away disappointed and a smug Fourteen slowly follows him with a knife in his hand. Later as One is trying to find someone to hang out with, Zero knocks her over as he is running away from Fourteen again. While Zero tries to tell Fourteen that they can just eat at the cabin, Fourteen lunges the knife and stabs Zero's hat. When One gets back up and looks around, she sees Zero angrily chasing Fourteen to get his hat back from him.
Later on in Fifteen's cabin, Fourteen is put in a cage with Zero's hat. One walks by the area to test if a batch of Yoylite has given her powers, seeing that she has not become invisible after being spotted by the three. As One imagines how the others would appreciate her more if she told them about it, she thinks back to Fourteen chasing Zero. In the fantasy, One lifts Fourteen in the air and sends him away. Zero hugs her for doing so.
Fanon[]
014 is fairly rare in the Battle for Dream Island fandom. The pairing first emerged as a rarepair after the subscriber specials that gave focus on the two separately, although they had not directly interacted yet at the time. Fanfics of the two then mainly focused on ideas based on their storylines in the shorts, such as if Fourteen found out about Zero's tapes or if he had the desire to eat Zero's skin like he does with Ten. When the algebraliens' canon backstories became the focus in TPOT 20, the latter idea ended up being true as scenes between the two mainly focused on a hungry Fourteen chasing after Zero. Fans and shippers of the two were joyful to see the two interact as the episode increased overall interest in their dynamic.
On AO3, as of October 20, 2025, the ship has 7 works in its romantic tag. It is the second most written ship for Zero and the fourth most for Fourteen on the site, behind 015 for Zero and 1014, 1415, and 214 for Fourteen.
