Angst and UST and more angst and fuckery is okay, SO LONG AS THEY END UP SIDE BY SIDE in some way.
This! Even if it's a threesome, the characters still have to be all together by the end. I have one LoM fic that got totally derailed when I realized that the story line required an ending where Sam leaves Gene for someone else. I just...can't do that. :( It's a great story idea with an awesome OC (if I do say so myself) but I just can't do it.
I do have a soft spot for partner-betrayal fic, but again, it better be hardcore angst with my OTP at least getting back together to try again. I know some people simply won't read partner betrayal fic...but like you, I don't know what that says about me, nor do I particularly care. (that needs to be on a tee shirt!!!!)
I can read partner betrayal fic, I rather enjoy reading it, especially if it's well written and full of that wonderfully messy thing we call human emotion, but, as you said, I need my OTP to end up at least trying to have another go at it, in the end.
We SO need that on a tee! CAFE PRESS HERE WE COME!
Sneaking in here (very sneakily indeed, from a mate's sofa-bed in Newcastle :P) because reading this totally reminded me of Drayce's stance on Bodie and Doyle... they're too gorgeous not to share around, but damn it, they belong together in the end. *g*
Also, wow... jealousy and wanking are big kinks of yours? I never would have guessed... *whistles*
"Or that one where Eames' heart is about to burst with jealousy over Arthur and Cobb and how Arthur's his little lap dog at the beginning, after Mal..."
. . . if this can be not in an Arthur/Cobb context (more in an Arthur/Mal, displaced loyalty context), I can totally make that happen. And would really, really like to because OMG JEALOUSY I HEART THAT TOO.
JEALOUSY. IT'S MY FAVORITE KINKtawgOctober 6 2010, 07:36:25 UTC
It can be dangerous inside Arthur's head. It can be dangerous inside anyone's, which is what takes a talent like forgery and turns it into a necessity. But Eames didn't expect to find such a sharp little danger lurking in Arthur's subconscious.
He didn't expect to find Mal.
Long legs and messy hair and wide, dark eyes. The black dress she always wore. She was less crazy though, than the original (or the closest Eames had seen to it, when Cobb had still been raw). Her hand on Arthur's shoulder, Arthur sitting in a straight-backed chair, facing away from Eames.
Her other hand is toying with the hair above Arthur's brow.
Arthur's hair.
Eames' hair.
On the occasions when he needs to give Arthur that high-speed, explosive nudge out of a dream, he likes to purr something, something to rile him up. Foreplay. He knows that you wake the person up, rather than attacking the dream.
But he still shoots Mal first. Gives him a long moment to watch her stumble back, and fall.
It's the closest they'll come to talking about it.
I admit I have a jealousy kink as well, I can't explain it but it makes me avery happy reader. And I know just waht you mean with your OTP, other pairings are fine as long as they end up together.

*g* Do you remember when the whole K/S thing came up and we had our chat abut your finally getting the OTP thing?
I said to you at the time, I can read my OTP lads with other people cheerfully and happily as long as it's BEFORE they get together.

I know a lot of people who can't stand to read their OTP with anyone else.
We're apparently capable of the mental... shuffle necessary to have our cake and eat it too. *g*
