[Fandom Snowflake Challenge] Day 10 - Favorite Tropes/Clichés/Motifs/Kinks/Themes

[dreamwriters]

Day 10
In your own space, share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme. (Or a few!) Tell us what makes it work for you, and why it appeals to you so much. Talk about what you like to see in fanworks featuring that theme most. Feel free to include recs and examples!
Cliché: Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Related to slowburn kink for me. Personally I can't do long distance relationships but I love reading them.

Trope: Odd Couple
I just love it when unlikely characters get paired together whether it's for a romantic relationship, a work relationship, or friendship fic

Narrative Kinks:
- damsel in defense/strong women
- bechdel pass
- fandom allusions and references
- AUs particularly canon divergence fix-its or fork-in-the-road AUs but AUs and fusions in general are fun
- Genderfic
- Acefic
- multishipping
- polyamory done right
-disability/neurodiversity fic
- competency
- domesticity
- nonsexual ageplay

Sexy Kinks
- slowburn
- BDSM done right
- voyeurism
- age differences
- oralplay
- sexual ageplay

Themes: love/hope

Message: family of choice, people need people

I had a disastrous LDR last year but I still love reading about good ones, mostly because I love social media/texting in fic? IDEK.

Also, age differences + voyeurism + some BDSM + oral play = yeahhhh
