smallhobbitI haven't really been participating this year - I've glanced at a few posts, but nothing really has inspired me, however I thought I'd do today's:
Share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme. (Or a few!) What makes it particularly appealing for you? What do you like in fanworks featuring that trope?
Tropewise, I do like some hurt/comfort. Show me Bilbo caring for Thorin after the Battle of the Five Armies (of course everyone lives!) and Thorin being bad-tempered and refusing to rest.
I have a strong competency kink, and will often create my own characters to fulfil this. To go with that I like having a team who will work together - they may have individual strengths and weaknesses, but between them they will get the job done.
If there's a motif in my writing it will be the frequent appearance of food. Lucas likes cake, any number of characters eat cottage pie, and everyone drinks countless cups of tea.
And I do like a good story, in which characters behave logically. Not necessarily logic as we see it, but logically within their own world, so that they remain in character. So that even where the premise is bizarre it works because the world remains intact. Unless, of course, this is crack, when the illogical is the logical.
