Here goes...

Active/Systems nominal, etc.: Both characters are genuinely interested in one another and there is no friendzoning. This is a perfect fiction couple.

Taking Damage: Either from outside or inside, a rough period in the relationship. With stress from outside, it's enemy engagements, from inside, it's mutiny or mechanical failures, depending.

Lost: The ship has ended, pretty much for good. Crew recovered means the characters are civil. Salvaged means they become friends again. Lost with all hands is an ugly breakup that will most likely not have positive consequences.

Dry Dock: A widespread ship theory that is unconfirmed. Ship may exist or have existed in the past. Also, Dry Dock can mean a temporary breakup.

Prototype: A small group of people who speculate it may happen.
