Most loved... I'm not sure I've ever actually admitted this before, but: in pairing fic, reincarnation of destined lovers. At least, in canons where reincarnation makes some sort of sense due to magic/fates/etc. I have a special fondness if at least one of the pair has changed gender at some point between incarnations, and it doesn't matter to them. Similar is when one generation has their love thwarted, and marry other people and have families, and then a generation or two later, their descendants find their way to each other to sort of fulfill that love belatedly.

I'm also not sure I've ever actually read any fic like this, just written it, but I've heard other people refer to it a few times, so I know it must be a trope.

I also have a huge kink for substance abuse/recovery for some reason, whether with pairings or not. (Gee, no one who's ever read my fics would notice. Hahaha.)

Most hated... uh, hmm. Does PWP in general count? :P Other than not caring for porn in general, pretty much the usual stuff. Incest, rape as prelude to (seemingly normal harmless) romance, mpreg for no reason whatsoever and without explanation...

I love substance abuse/recovery too. Probably because I've never seen it up close and personal IRL, to be honest though, which makes me a bit self-conscious about it.

I sort of have to be self-conscious about it, since one of my grandfathers was an abusive alcoholic who screwed my mom up pretty well from a psychological standpoint. I think I actually met him twice in my entire life before he died, with good reason, both when I was too young to remember.

But there's just something about watching characters hit rock bottom and KNOWING they've hit rock bottom, but being unable or unwilling to do anything to correct it. Addiction gets them there. (Mental illness too, it's another fond topic for me. Lots and lots of research for me between the two, wheeeeee.)
