Tropes, Clichés, and Kinks - Snowflake Challenge #14

[logicgunn]

Oh how I love tropes. There's something comforting about a familiar predicament but with another writer's slant on it.

I'm a sucker for a hypothermia fic. It's a valid excuse for two people who pine from afar to get up close and personal, and all it takes is for one person to be a little brave and make a move or, you know, stuttering breaths and blown pupils and awkward boners. You can only remain oblivious for so long when pressed up against someone in the cold.

h/c and angst are things I love to read and seek out when I'm in the mood. Everything from a misunderstanding gotten out of hand to major physical harm (as long as there's some kind of resolution, the comfort is important). I like that fanfiction can take these things to their extremes in a way that canon usually can't, and the rollercoaster of emotions is so satisfyingly wild.

There are a couple of AUs that I adore; Post-Apocalyptic (I love apocalyptic media in general so combining it with my fandoms is awesome), Coffee Shop (serisously, coffee beans and my OTP? Match made in heaven!) and Accidental Marriage (I just finished one for the romancingmcshep fest).

HAAAHAAAHAAA your tropes and my tropes are Very Compatible!! I like hypothermia fic, but it's not a bulletproof one, but the h/c? Post-apocalypse?

YES PLZ

P.S. have you read The Hard Prayer? SO GOOD.

[logicgunn]

Ha! What a coincidence, I'm literally re-reading The Hard Prayer today (for the 50th time) cause I had a hankering for some post-apocalyptic angst. It's one of my favourite fics of all time. <3

[fadedwings]

hypothermia and accidental marriage are such great tropes!

[logicgunn]

They are brilliant. :)

I didn't know it was called hypothermia fic, but I do love bundling, huddling together for warmth, etc.

[logicgunn]

I think you can call it whatever works for you. :)

Another coffee shop au lover! I recall a while ago seeing someone say, if they saw one more coffee shop au *shakes fist*, and I was like, GIVE ME ALL THE COFFEE SHOP AUS!!! Can't get enough of them.

[logicgunn]

You can never have too many of any trope IMHO. The more coffee shop AUs, the better!

[runicmagitek]

Oh I love your fave AUs! Now I want to see a post-apocalyptic coffee shop AU.

[logicgunn]

That would be fabulous!
