Re: How to make you like tropes you usually don't...

HSAU is a hard one, the nearest I can think that makes it palatable is a crossover that dumps a character in a fandom with a standard American highschool, like say a Twilight crossover, something I have on occasion (mostly Hp/Twilight crosses), though I am not sure any Second World fantasy fandoms will ever work in such a cross (though I did read a DA/HP cross where Cullen ended up at Hogwarts).

Soulmates is something I tend to read anyway, but I hate the idea that some weird magic/"destiny" is pushing them is the only reason they fall in love. Actually give the relationship development and don't depend totally on the soulbond as a crutch. In fact? Totally divorce the soulbond from the falling in love, if possible!

A/B/O -- make it political, make it about omegas and their rights, give a bit of agency to all parties when they go into heat, whether that means they can actually resist it, or they have drugs/potions that stop it. Create cultural traditions centered around Alphas gaining favour with Omegas. Also? Don't make Betas total non-entities - background maybe, but not invisible.
