Generally x is used in fanfics to indicate shipping, for example BigMac x Dash. Because they're "multiplying", get it?

Now, I'm not saying it's wrong to use /, it's just not the convention. But given the amount of grimdark fics I've seen, "slash" or "divided by" makes sense in its own way.

Actually, the slash is conventionally used in some areas of fanfic; think Kirk/Spock.

IIRC, originally the slash helped to denote who was written as a the dominant partner. In any case, in huge fandoms like Harry Potter, where you have both het and homosexual parings, you see both used, with some people using "x" for straight couples, but still a fair amount of "Harry/Ginny."
(That fandom also has folks who select three people as their One True Pairing, so you get Fred/George/Hermione styling.)

I figure it's sort of like the difference between using and or an ampersand, which matters in screenwriting credits, but not so much otherwise.

Using the slash symbol makes sense when you read it like a numerical fraction. For example, "Snape over Harry".
