Hmmmmm I love a good yummy slowburn!! The tension, the chemistry, the shared experiences that bring them closer and closer together, hellooooo? // fake dating is practically like crack cocaine to me, once I start a fic with it I won’t know how to stop myself! Bc of course you’re gonna fall in love with your hot friend who you go on “fake dates” with duh! // typically I prefer an enemies to lovers trope, I just love the pay off and realization of “I can’t stop thinking about this person and how annoying they are and how much I want to kiss them, wait what?” // I mean who doesn’t love some close proximity?? Give me a shared bed fic on the double bartender! // hurt comfort hurt comfort hurt comfort hurt comfort hurt comfort // ngl I love a good fantasy setting, esp if we’re including dragons and magic! Sign me tf upppp! // domestic bliss all day every day, I wanna see them be cute at the grocery store, make dinner together and cuddle on the couch // I think every fic has gotta have appropriate amounts of fluff AND smut, don’t hate the player // I mean canon can be important but I love seeing what writers come up with in a fix-it!! The creativity is what I crave! // reincarnation pls, I cannot handle major character deaths TT, I am a sensitive soul // multi chapter is preferred, I will eat down a novel bitch // even tho I’m not that big on kids myself, there’s just something about a pairing I adore caring for a child/baby! And bonus points if the child being taken care of is an age regressed version of the other person in the pairing // ARRANGED MARRIAGE GOOD SHIT // I’m tired of reading about people meeting in high school, gimme that middle aged loveeee // bitch make them time travel and isolated, go through trials and tribulations together, suffer and come out stronger together (and maybe trauma bonded too) // oooooh yeah neighbors is awesome, I don’t always love the awkwardness that comes with roommate tropes at times // I meannnn why can’t sci-fi and magic exist together??? // I haven’t read a body swap in a looooooong time, but that shit kinda eats doesn’t it? Walk a mile in these louboutins // ahhhhh I’ll take the angst and the check please! Thank you! // typically prefer just mundane settings but when an apocalyptic fic is done right *cough* Body Heat by comingaback *cough* it HITS // And I’ll take the happy ending for 500 Alex :)
