OP

(Anonymous) 2015-08-21 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
That makes perfect sense, I can see how that would be appealing and easy to do for Starsky and Hutch. I think my thing with this specific pairing is that the "romantic as well" aspect feels sort of distracting or cluttering, and not at all "oh! my heart" when I'm focusing way more on, well, anything and everything else. (But not enough that it would stop me from reading a really good slash fic, though!)

Now that I'm thinking about it and reading all these great comments, I think it has something to do with how I usually ship in other fandoms. In my other fandoms' slash ships, a lot of my interest is on how the romantic relationship makes them different and more interesting than canon, so there was no such thing as a fic that "just happened" to be slash. The slash was always significantly different from the gen in a way that really compelled me, and I think that's where my interest in slash lay. This is the first "epic friendship" fandom I've been in where adding slash didn't change the characters in a way that held any interest for me.
