Re: Pairing preferences in a fic

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's more to deal with the complexity of breaking up a canon couple without making one or both halves awful people, or trying to convince the readers that A and C parted amicably for reasons they'd never part ways over in canon.

Re: Pairing preferences in a fic

Sure. Also, depending on where in the storyline you set it, the canon couple could not even have happened yet.

But I'd find it contrived if the third character magically didn't exist if they played a significant role in canon. "Spike and Buffy meet in a cafe and fall in love and Angel/Angelus and Drusilla never existed" is a Spike/Buffy ship fic, but it's a Spike/Buffy ship fic would make me cringe and misses a whole lot of beats that makes the ship what it is.

Regarding the gay point, I'm not saying it's all about the gay. But I'm saying a whole lot are, and I'd avoid those.
