In your own space, share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme.
Only one??? Impossible! I love tropes, so it's a tough one.
I think Pining/Seemingly Unrequited Love is probably my favorite. Though I'll definitely give Established Relationship fics a go if they look interesting, getting into a character's headspace while they agonizingly long for someone they think couldn't possibly feel the same way is my jam.
A lot of the other tropes I love are, in a way, offshoots of my love for that one. I like pretty much all the #problematic relationship tropes - Enemies to Lovers, Age Difference, Incest - because they offer so many delicious reasons they shouldn't want to be together.
Then there's also Fake Dating, Bed Sharing, Trapped Together... all that good forced proximity while just yearning.
And then of course Sex Pollen, Fuck or Die, Forced Marriage... where things might get even more intense while the feelings are still unresolved.
(So, one answer and many at the same time. What else is new?)

Childermass/Segundus arranged marriage WIP - Oooh, tell me more (if you want)!
I do very much want, thank you for asking! 💖 It's an canon divergent AU fic where Segundus is still (mostly) human but grew up at the Raven King's court in the fae realm. When magic begins to return to the human world, Segundus sneaks back into the human world to try and make sure no one gets hurt by meddling fae, because he's kind like that (and also very curious to see his land of birth). He ends up in a spot of trouble, Childermass is around and is decent enough to help Segundus out, completely unaware that Segundus isn't fully human at this point in his life. They go their separate ways, but one thing leads to another, and Segundus ends up summoned by Norrell, which sets off a chain reaction that accidentally (due to Norrell being prideful and not listening to Segundus advice on the fae At All) ends with Segundus and Childermass magically engaged for marriage 😁 The outline is fairly vague and a little old at this point, but I still hope to get it written one of these days.
