still doing trope rating? if socoffeeshop aus? does that count as a trope?

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

Definitely a trope, anon, but not one we’re into.

We tend to enjoy very plot heavy or setting-contextual fic, so moving the characters we like into a generic, low stakes setting just to screw around and do normal people things doesn’t really do much for us.

We definitely get why people like it, but it’s not for us.

Idk if character tropes count but if so – tsundere! Thoughts on tsundere characters? πŸ’—

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

Manufactured tsundere just for the sake of filling out the tropes in a harem anime etc are boring and irritating.

Actual, nuanced and developed characters who are tsundere, with their own inner life and time to shine?

Priceless.

How about cliche of cliches: there was only one bed

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

An excellent story beat on the path of any spicy relationship.

Enemies to lovers, they’re stuck together and just starting to get along? There was only one bed.

Shipcest? There was only one bed.

Teacher and student on a trip together? There was only one bed.

Childhood friends to lovers? :D

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

Depends on context.

Codependent, attached at the hip friends, who can’t disentangle themselves from one another, to lovers? Absolutely.

The girl/guy next door? It’s fine as a garnish. Add another plotline as the main trope.

You had some great imagines for it iirc, but how do you personally feel about boss/employee?

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

It’s a great ‘low level spicy’ trope for when you’re looking for something with a dash of heat, but don’t want to burn your mouth on the hottest chili pepper of a relationship.

Boss/employee is tame enough to make it into a LOT of mainstream media, so it’s fun because we get to see it in a lot of movies, books, etc, especially pre-90s.

Secretary (2002) is a favorite film in system
