Challenge #14: In your own space, share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme. (Or a few!) What makes it particularly appealing for you? What do you like in fanworks featuring that trope?
Found! Family! A bunch of people shoved together by chance or fate or circumstance or whatever and then choosing to remain together and making it work because they really love and care for each other is my jam. Bonus points if one or more of the characters are prickly about it and bicker all the time but are still absolutely ride or die.
I am also very fond of hurt/comfort--but who isn't, really?
And--this can apply to any fandom I guess but it comes out of Tolkien--I really love the whole concept of estel, that no matter how dark things get there's always a light at the end, even if you can't see it at the moment.
I also love a good starlight or nightingale motif, which I associate very closely with the above theme, because Luthien.
