Re: astolat her "cold genius nerd dom/sub mindless slavering love slave muscle man" thing that she applies to every single pairing? lol ugh. She is a good writer but yeah too self-indulgent with that kink.

I volunteered for OTW and I know just how difficult a feat the org pulls off by support millions of AO3 users so IMHO OPs secret is BS.

"cold genius nerd dom/sub mindless slavering love slave muscle man"

That's the perfect way to describe it! I very much share this kink, so in the fandoms where I see this dynamic as well her fic is often some of my favourites. But it just doesn't work for all characters, no matter how good a writer she is in general.

Oh my god, this description is absolute perfection, I love it. Unfortunately, I can't stand this dynamic, so almost all of her fic is a hard pass for me. I do love one of her fics, but that's mainly due to the fact that the focal character spends at least half of the fic by themselves, and therefore the amount of time they spend being a smug, self-superior asshole who is so much smarter and cooler and more capable than everybody else is limited.

Personally I love highly competent characters; unless their competence is at the expense of all the other characters--then I kind of hate them.
