Yeah, definitely. I know if you're writing you can't always predict the direction that the fic would go, but that would be disappointing to me as a reader if the focus of the fic suddenly became getting C to join the relationship.

You know that's a good point too, about realism. Personally I just can't wrap my head around the idea that the pairing in an OTP>OT3 fic would go from being happy together to suddenly really really needing C, which seems to be how a lot of those fics go. Obviously there are people out there who are wired for poly relationships, I just find it hard to believe that all three of them would fall into it so easily, especially if they've grown up in a society that calls for monogamy. Even if you're totally okay with you and your partner seeing other people, there's going to be a lot of socialization and stigma that you'll have to work through. At the very least I'd find it more believable if at least one of the triad members had to confront his/her own feelings or work through jealousy/etc.
