Really, I think you could do much worse than using mobility as the sole criterion for slashing someone/thing. That's a fairly broad category and odds are that at least one interesting pairing might result.

What I really don't like is slashing characters simply because certain actors play them. How does that make any sense to anyone? Unless they're just writing porn, of course, in which case characterization hardly matters. I hate out of character slash, basically, which in my undying optimism I'd like to think is a popular fannish opinion.

But probably not.

I'd kind of like to read a fic where you have these two characters and it's not that they're completely incompatible, but they get to the point of having sex and one of them's just like "Eh, you know, I'd rather not. Maybe if you'd asked me last Tuesday, things'd have been different." And nobody angsts about it, but it just doesn't happen.

Which is a pretty pointless story, but apparently I like those.

Your standards for being out of character diverge greatly from the norm. That's probably what would make them qualify as unpopular, if not downright incomprehensible.

Yes, well. To be great is to be misunderstood.

And this (http://wiki.fandomwank.com/index.php/Het) is amazing.

Wow. I can't tell if it's serious or not.

I hate fandom.

It's a joke.
