Tropes

[amaresu]

Let's talk about tropes. Both for femslash and women in general.

What are your favorite tropes? Which tropes should die in a fire? What do you desperately wish with all your heart would become a trope?

You should check out chainofclovers' fiction -- she writes almost exclusively femmeslash, and she's big on slow courtship, nuanced relationships, and "older" women (whatever that means). She's good at being adorable without being sickeningly sweet, and she's also very, very careful about how she handles consent in sex scenes. Not sure if you're into her fandoms (The Devil Wears Prada and Doubt), but either way I'd give her stuff a chance, because she's also very talented.

Her fics sound like they're right up my alley. I'll definitely check them out. Thank you for the rec!
