Agreed. That's part of the reason I find it very hard to enjoy long shippy fics - they have no plot outside the romance, nothing happens, and then a lot of the romance has to be pushed along by all this silly internal drama (where one good external plot would have done the job and been 100% less soap opera-ish).

But I also agree with what people said above, that in fic you come in already invested in the pairing so the author doesn't have nearly as hard a 'sell'.

Man, there's one author I love and hate. They start out with fantastic interesting plots and lots of stuff going on and then the characters get together and the plot just... fizzles out and it's 3-4 more chapters of the characters having sex, talking about having sex, wanting to have sex, etc. And then it ends.

They're the only one I am sitting there rooting for the characters not to get together yet, because I want to see what's going to happen plot wise.

Then again I stopped reading when they wrote a fic that was.... weird and "Oh no, Character isn't gay, he's demisexual for this one other dude" that left a bad taste in my mouth.
