I keep wanting to go through and rec things to people, but I think that's going to have to wait--I want to go to bed at a reasonable hour tonight.

Okay, so.

In your own space, share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme. (Or a few!) Tell us what makes it work for you, and why it appeals to you so much. Talk about what you like to see in fanworks featuring that theme most. Feel free to include recs and examples!

In your own space, post recs for at least three fanworks that you did not create.

( Three recs, coming right up... )

...okay, so it turned out to be four recs, so sue me.

(I did Yuletide recs here, too, if you're interested.)

Next step was trying to find an icon, for the dual reasons that icons were exclaimed as one of the delights and joys of Dreamwidth (esp in comparison to tumblr) and that looking around communities and posts and so forth icons seem pretty important to Dreamwidth culture.

Even just trying to find two, this is harder than I expected--a combination of choice overload (holy shit, there's a lot of icons out there) and that my two favorite shows are little-iconed, and my favorite characters from those shows apparently not popular for iconing even within that limited subset. (Which isn't a complaint--people should do what they like!)

Right now I'm thinking 41 here for default (though I was also tempted by the fox at 9 here), and one of these illustrated letters for poetry etc.--maybe one of the S's? We'll see.
