Booktag is the non-binary ship between Book and Price Tag from the Battle for Dream Island fandom.
Canon[]
After teaming up, Price Tag points out that the other teams' names are stupid. Book reassures them that they won't end up with a name like that if they're careful. Ironically, their team name unintentionally ends up being named Just Not.
Hearing from Pillow that they've teleported into Book's nightmare for the challenge, Price Tag feels that the scenery around them doesn't feel like a nightmare. They, along with Pillow and Bomby, look around to find where Book is in her dream not knowing that she's trapped in a jawbreaker. Book yells out to the three, hoping that they hear her, and pushes against the jawbreaker to get closer. Price Tag and Bomby follow Pillow's various ideas to find Book: dancing, damaging the environment, starnapping, and bowling. Eventually, Price Tag oversees the jawbreaker Book's in moving around as she tries to break out of it. As they wonder if she's inside, they follow along Pillow and Bomby on licking the jawbreaker. This frees Book who in turn thanks them. Later when Book is upset that her nightmare is about losing friends in the past, Pillow suggests to Price Tag that they say hi to her. Price Tag admits that they wouldn't know what to say to her as they don't feel that close to her even as teammates. After being urged by Pillow to do it anyways, Price Tag sits down and confronts her, asking if she's alright. Book explains that they've left much baggage towards people and says she doesn't know what to do after pushing many of her friends away. Knowing that they weren't here to see all of that in the past, Price Tag recalls the challenges they've done together with Book and tells her they've felt included as a new competitor because of her. Book responds that she remembered advice Gaty gave her to meet new people and wishes that they went into Price Tag's dream instead so she could've learnt more about them and become closer friends. Since they're still in Book's dream, Price Tag gives her the idea that she can dream up some of their interests which makes Book happy. The two sit down on the grass together as Price Tag explains some of their passions, which appear beside them as Book imagines them. After Book wakes up, she asks Price Tag if they'd like to play Goiky's and Dragons which they happily accept. The two run off laughing together.
Moments[]
- Book compliments Price Tag's plan to split up and search for water for their Funny Plant.
- When Price Tag explains their strategy to trade items between other teams, Book calls them the greatest trader she's ever known.
Fanon[]
The ship was relatively obscure at first, garnering minor attention because of their characteristics and being teammates in The Power of Two. After TPOT 10 dug deep and created a new bond between the two, interest in the pairing increased greatly. Currently, fan art of their new found friendship in the season has been made in response on platforms such as Twitter and Tumblr. Booktag as a ship has often been labeled as yuri so far and used as a basis to support both Book and Price Tag's journies in the season. Beforehand, their most frequent rival ships are Booklow and Nailtag.
