forewarned is forearmed: lots of rambly rambling beneath the cuts.

Kink solidarity, yay!

I wonder if it's been prompted at the kink meme yet? I would read so many fics about McCoy's thing for sleepy-Chapel or sleepy-Kirk or sleepy-both.

I want a long Chris/Zoe story so very very badly. Chris is fumbly but Zoe loves him anyway!
before i say anything else, i need to express how much i could go for an AU fic where zoe is a v. v. important CEO and chris is her newbie assistant. two weeks notice meets devil wears prada, kindasorta.

the Kirk in my head is a sort of sexual chameleon - always up for whatever his partner's into - but I think his default might be pretty vanilla.
strangely enough, i agree. ..well, mostly. i totally see him loving the risk of getting caught, stealing quickies in places where they might get caught. and i'm so totally absolutely not projecting, but i wouldn't put home video porn beyond him. probably not one to tape himself, but say if he and bones got caught on security cameras, he'd have every single file deleted....except one to keep for himself and maybe shock bones with later.

the tl;dr of McCoy's sex life is: he has a thing for trust and privacy and secrets.agreeeed! especially with the somnophilia. not so much with the cross dressing, ( ... )

I would love an AU like that!

hahaha, I think that's a valid interpretation of Kirk's sexytimes practices. I could definitely see him having a thing for exhibitionism or, as you say, the thrill of potentially getting caught. the fic where Bones finds out Kirk's been keeping tapes of them would either be hilarious or really angsty, I'm not sure which!

I definitely agree re: McCoy probably having a thing for intelligence/creativity, and would add competence. seems like a man that values people who're good at what they do. I like your interpretation! ;)

about the crossdressing - I'm not sure why (and maybe it *is* projecting for me), but I think he'd be more into women crossdressing - like suits and ties, buttondowns, etc. I don't know about men; I'd have to think about it some more, but beyond the aesthetics of it I do think the secretive nature of it would appeal to him. I don't know! you're making me doubt myself, hee. :)

and zach'd be his BFF struggling (theater?) actor who mooches off chris' high-paying job while he's waiting for his big break (but since he's really picky about the work, he never actually gets work.. think jack macfarland with talent and a spectacular education). he always supports chris' career choice and makes sure the damn boy keeps his job with ms. feistybottom because if he quits then zach might actually have to get a job chris would have suffered all those months with not even a good reference to show for it ( ... )

What fabulous responses! AMEN to your take on Jim Kirk and sex. As for Bones, I find myself very easily convinced of a LOT, so far, in fic, but I haven't quite decided where I come down on the issue myself. (Nor have I decided how Jim and Bones Actually Get Together, yet, either -- it's all very fuzzy!)

Your RPS tropes are all fabulous, but ESPECIALLY 3 and 4. HOMG, three alone ... I was saying somewhere else that I really just want to see more ZQ and CP where they're much more GUARDED about their feelings, and it really takes time for them to get to any sort of comfort level with each other, particularly emotionally. I dunno.

YAY!

yeah, I think McCoy is a little harder to pin down, maybe because he's more of a secondary character in the film? I don't have solid internal canon for any pairings I ship either, not really, which may be because I read so much fic and find myself nodding and going, "oh, yeah, I guess it could happen like that." I'm indecisive and easily swayed! *g*

YES. *waaants* :DD

I love the tropes that you picked and want to see more of all of them as well, especially thoughtful genderswap and AUs.

Thank you for that picture of Zoe! Just, wow. How is she so gorgeous?

This is the second time I've heard Hardison mentioned in the top five meme. Now I want to see Leverage, especially since I've heard a lot of good things about it. :D

Haha, me, too re: Brad/Nate. I've never even seen GK but I stumbled upon hackthis's fics and in my mind, they're totally together and in love. ^___^;

Yay, pics! \o/

you should see Leverage! It's by no means a perfect show, but I think Hardison (and Parker & Eliot) are worth it.

I don't know if I'll ever watch GK - I have no attention span for TV, and I've been informed that for the first few episodes it's *really hard* to tell who's who because they all look the same in uniform - but I enjoy her fics, and those by oxoniensis, romanticalgirl, et al. a lot. :D
