y'know i think i've figured out my favourite pairing/relationship trope and why i'm immediately drawn to some ships no matter how vague or lacking in evidence.
it's grumpy bear/sweet with pretty hair
something about it just scratches this itch in my brain like nothing else.
tormund/jon from game of thrones (peak of this trope/pairing)
geralt/jaskier from the witcher
andrew/neil from all for the game (this one is very loose they're both grumpy)
jean/jeremy from all for the game
erik lehnsherr/charles xavier from x-men (specifically the newer/alternate timeline ones)
bones/jim from alternate timeline star trek (see my favourite series western skies by anruiukimi on ao3)
dean/castiel from supernatural
ghost/soap from modern warfare (yes i fell for that trend sue me it's hard to find non-explicit content for these two anyway)
regulus/james from marauders era (they both have pretty hair, this one is very loose)
alfie solomons/tommy shelby from peaky blinders (these two? yes)
p.s. yes im aware these are all m/m ships, no i am not fetishising gay relationships. im an amab agender and asexual individual myself and i just like reading fluffy stories about people who love each other, and prefer ships i can relate to. bugger off.
p.p.s. literally all of these are favourited tags on my ao3
