I haven't read a lot of wing fic, but I think it's sort of like "I woke up gay!" only with added wings. It's popular in popslash and I've seen it bleed over into Due South and SGA adn a few other fandoms.
I like the ruffles.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Not wings the TV show.
I think it first popped up in LOTR, which, you'll recall, does not have winged people (although there are sapient creatures who do have wings, because, they are BIRDS). Actually, it might even have been in LOTR RPS; I don't read either so I coldn't say.
I don't think it's any crazier than, say, your average character getting a unicorn in his or her back yard. But just as obviously a preteen years My Little Pony-type fantasy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That probably shouldn't make me gleeful, should it?
I blame Plei.

Except for, I feel it is easier to hind a unicorn than wings. I mean, do you have special clothes, or fold your wings up so you hide them under your shirts, or what?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I blame Plei.That's like blaming air for being so gosh darned breathable. Bless her.

I think I may wait until I get home though, unless I don't.

Well, I was "blaming" her for my glee.

I read a pretty good SPN story where Dean was born with wings. I have no idea where the link is to that though.
