winter fic tropes for @ussjellyfish
avalonsilver reblogged
I think one of my favorite slowburn/oblivious mutual pining tropes is when the pair goes on not-a-date. That is, when they go hang out, alone together, doing things that would normally classify as a date if the two of them weren't stubbornly telling themselves that they were reading too much into it, they're just hanging out like friends do, no really. There's always a moment right at the end where they nearly kiss but something interrupts or they lose their nerve at the last second and it's just so good

EARLY RESULTS BEGINNING TO ROLL IN for the Fansplaining Fic Preferences Survey! With nearly 5,000 responses, Fluff and Angst are both popular, but Fluff a little more so. And a bunch of people don’t know what “Darkfic” and “Crack” are, for which we can hardly blame them.
Have you told us about your fic preferences yet? The survey covers huge swaths of tropes and concepts, and we need YOU to help us!
We especially need people who write on Wattpad and people who like Asian fandoms to respond. Don’t let our survey be dominated by any one fic reading group—help us get a truly representative picture of what fanfic readers like!
The survey closes on Sunday October 9, so don’t delay!
Take the survey now — and then reblog, tweet, post, go tell your followers to take it too!
We just passed 5,000 responses!!!
BUT WE ARE GREEDY AND WANT MORE!!
As you can see, fluff is winning the battle—who’s surprised?—but you MIGHT be surprised by some of the other stuff that’s doing well. So if you have preferences, go take the survey and make your voice heard! :-D
