I'm going to study history at Uni next year

Ah, so true: I now am.

facing dislikes

Right, I have a challenge for you all: write a drabble using the things you ignore, or even actively avoid, in the fandom. Post them (or links) here. (AU? RPS? a particular pairing? or characterisation? What don't you like?)

I'll start you off with a combination of two of my personal dislikes: mpreg and wingfic.


By eight months Orlando’s wings could not sustain his weight. His swollen stomach pulled at his spine and made his shoulders sink, his wings hanging listlessly, feathers trailing behind him in the dust as he walked. It was too much effort to try and lift them.

Exhaustion overwhelmed him and drained the smiles from his face as he curled in on himself, every fibre concentrating on the burgeoning life inside him, counting down the moments until birth.

Through his isolation, light shone in Orlando’s eyes when he reminded himself it was Viggo’s child that kept him pinioned to the ground.

Oh help. cfeng - in reponse to my previous post - has challenged me to write an mpreg fic where the characters both remain clearly male. My complaint against mpreg was that the pregnant one gets turned effeminate, OOC and then you might as well read het really.

It's not like I've got time, but I want comments. Should I even try? I'm tempted because I can't resist a challenge. But I have to get past the ewwwwww factor first. Help me out.
