It's a genre of fanfiction where one character in a relationship is purposefully maimed/injured/physically or emotionally cut down as a plot device so that another character can take care of them in a romantic/sexual situation.
And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

Thanks for all the fish.
Huh... See, because I've got one of my characters hurt (in cannon, actually) and the hurt character takes sexual comfort from the second character. Would this count?

It could. It's really up to you.

Well, I think that it's going to have to count, because I only need to lose 29 more words.

"Yeah. It's really tragic, when you think about it. I mean Richard and Philip, not me and Warren, although that is not without its own element of the tragique."
Okay, Plei? I just wanted to mention that imagining Andrew saying this line makes me laugh *almost* as much as I laugh when I imagine him prancing around in a toga singing "We are as gods!"
So. Pretty damn perfect.
And Perkins, glad to hear it. It really wasn't, uh, work-appropriate, you know? Heh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Here's my movie drabble for Sunday 100:
"Luke Perry?"
"Yeah … don't you like him? He was Dylan on 9021…"
"I know who he is, Andrew. It's just the idea of him playing my boyfriend that's weird."
"Oh, but he's cool! I'm calling his character Pike."
She slides her gaze across the room where Spike is intently not listening to them.
"Pike?" she mutters.
Andrew follows her look, and giggles.
"No! Nothing to do with him. A live boyfriend."
Spike's cough may have been real, Buffy thinks. Maybe vampires can cough. She narrows her eyes.
"Sounds good," she says. "You know who would make a great vamp?"

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
BWAH!
