[dark_administrator]

Hello, doers of darkness!

To kick off our fandom promotion fest, let’s have a recommendation meme:

• Comment with your favorite tropes, narrative kinks, character archetypes, and other qualities that you look for in a fandom.


• Reply to other people’s comments with recommendations for fandoms with chromatic creator(s) and character(s) that suit their preferences.

This entry is posted at Dreamwidth and LiveJournal and you may comment at either journaling platform.

Lovers or spouses or even just really good lifelong friends (m/f, m/m, f/f - it matters not to me) who are equals and partners and who snark at each other as they face tough, dangerous situations. The genre can be fantasy, SF, mystery, or adventure, and the media should be print (fiction, manga, or maybe comics), because I don't watch many movies and barely any TV.

Not exactly obscure but the Parable of Sower/Parable of the Talents come to mind, specifically Lauren and Zahra's friendship, the Lauren/Bankole and Travis/Natividad romances. There are a whole host of relationships explored that really resonate at veristic even in the dystopian universe.
