Snowflake Challenge-Day 7
Its windy and cold today and the world is being scary once more. Keep warm and safe everyone.
Today's
snowflake_challenge is one that I hadn't really thought about before though I know my character type for RP.
Day 7
In your own space, share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme. (More than one is okay, too.) Tell us about it, tell us why you love it, give us some examples and recs.
Families and friendship, the kinds that are difficult and that are chosen by the characters. In stories, the ones I love are where you can see people coming together and going, oh, you get it. I also love seeing the domestic contentment that happens when you've found your people and aren't off saving the world. This is one reason that the new Flash television show hooked me so quickly as its all about who do you trust, who do you love and who helps you become a better person. I love it when these relationships are poked at too such as Charles and Raven's relationship throughout the two newest X-Men movies. That being a found family is a complicated and never easy place and when writers go into that, it makes me happy. The bumps and troubles make when it works so much sweeter.
A few of my fandoms that hit this are October Daye, Incryptid, Hexwood, Magid Series, Chrestomanci, Leverage, the Raven Cycle, Robin Hood, Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, MCU, X-Men.
This Yuletide was full of a lot of fics that were all about these created families.
Impulse Control about the after of Hexwood.
Eyewitness Account that hits all that I love about The Flash as we see everyone understanding and watching out for each other.
It Takes a Village, a wonderful Vorkosigan fic about planning the wedding and seeing all the people around Ekaterin and Miles.
Ready or Not, a Fangirl fic that's all about finding your own tribe.
A Quiet Night, domestic fluff of October Daye from the point of view of May.
The Eighth Bell, a post-canon Old Kingdom fic where everyone redefines themselves and learns to go forward.
Honestly, I could link my entire reading history on Ao3 to answer this but these are my recent favorites. I'm going to end by linking a wonderful Leverage fanvid that also captures found family so well.
