Fandom Snowflake Challenge: 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!

As someone who has a bucketload of favorite tropes/kinks, I've decided to narrow it down to just a few. I have some general tropes featured in any kind of storytelling medium, though most of them are centered around what you normally see in fanfiction.

( These are a few of my favorite things... )
