General likes
> Historical settings - Regency through late 20th century especially!
> Sci-fi: utopia, dystopia, cyberpunk, sci-fi noir
> Period-typical homophobia, transphobia, etc - I prefer realism in this regard! Canon-typical levels of anachronism are fine though :P
> Unreliable narrators
> Mixed, confused, complicated feelings
> Complex, thorny interpersonal issues that never get fully resolved; relationships that are fulfilling and functional but still a little toxic
> Infatuation, obsession, fixation; guilty voyeuristic pining
> Themes of repression, self-consciousness, shame, yearning
> Characters getting what they want before they've acknowledged to themselves they want it
> Tragedy, bittersweet endings, ambiguous endings
> Dom/sub - especially unnegotiated, especially as shaped by characters personalities! I love dynamics of control, and the comfort of relinquishing control/the comfort of asserting control
> Focus on physical sensation, physical realism, sensory detail; the banal and/or horrifying ordeal of living in a body
> Breaking up and getting back together; "idiots in love" shenanigans
> Characters making mistakes, self-sabotaging, being clueless about their own wants/needs
> Characters brushing off/compartmentalising the trauma
> Fear of intimacy; fear of emotional intimacy while being blase about sexual intimacy
> Extravagance, luxury, opulence
> Class differences and the way a character's class influences their worldview
> Femme/masc dynamics, especially femme man/masc woman, femme trans women, masc trans men
> Gender Hangups - characters feeling insecure about their gender presentation or their ability to live up to their society's ideals, especially in the context of sex or relationships
> Characters having an experience that we have an understanding of and language for in our world, but that they have no knowledge of
Smut likes
> Fucking while pining
> Characters in denial that what they're doing is sexual (while definitely getting off on it)
> Dual genitalia
> Small dicks
> Transfemmes with soft dicks; erectile dysfunction but make it gender affirming lmao!
> Weight gain, feeding kink especially with messy, indulgent desserts
> Wet and messy kink with indulgent desserts :P
> Embarrassment about inconvenient/revealing erections
> Noncon, dubcon, consent issues
> Comeplay - as a "marking their territory" thing, as a breeding kink thing, etc
> Clothed sex, clothed foreplay
> Condescending/infantilising praise, coddling type doms
> Frottage/tribbing/bits on bits with any genital combo
> Intercrural/thighfucking
