I think it would be really interesting to have a slash fic in which one of the character just really, honestly, inescapably was not romantically in love with the other guy at all. No convenient coming around later on, no realization that he was just repressed or in denial.

I think it would just be really interesting to see that old slash trope (which I really love btw) -- one guy being so sure that his friend is straight and would never want to have sex with him, and then his feelings are revealed and he prepares to get his heart crushed...and actually his friend returns his feelings! -- subverted so that his fears were actually correct. It seems like such fascinating angst, I wish it was more common. The only ones I've seen are ones where the straight guy doesn't really like the non-straight one though, rather than the straight guy really really loving the non-straight guy, but just not romantically.

"I think it would be really interesting to have a slash fic in which one of the character just really, honestly, inescapably was not romantically in love with the other guy at all."

Agreed so much!

I LOVE slash fic, don't get me wrong, but it seems like fandom has a tendency to make everyone bisexual. And there's nothing wrong with that but I do wish there were a few more fics addressing the fact that sometimes people just aren't compatible.

But the scenario you wrote out sounds FANTASTIC.

Thanks! I had been thinking of possibly writing it, if I ever find the motivation to do so.

If you do end up writing it, could you post a link here?

Sure! You could also PM me so I could give you a heads up if I write it, though I don't know if I'd write it in a very popular fandom...

Im at at work and on my phone, cant look it up right now, but there's an SG-1 fic a lot like thi on AO3.

Cool!

On re-read, it's not exactly what you described, but still kind of close.
