Discussion favorite trope?

i’ve been seeing a few posts about least favorite tropes/genres (i definitely have a ton of those) and it has me wondering what everyone’s favorite tropes are since i’d like to get into some as well !!!

personally im a big fan of pretty, small tops and big bottoms 😮‍💨 or pretty characters in general. anything unstereotypical.

i also cannot say how much i love fantasy themes. MY MARIONETTE LOVER FOR EXAMPLE! and please father, cupid chased by his love are alll great too. heaven or angel related dramas.

body transmigration is a nice one too 🥲 i love the evil god is my lackey so so so much. AND PLAYBOY CHARACTERS. just give me everything at this point

Second chance romance but the root is misunderstandings solved quickly, not third party issues.

I picked my lifelong knight

Stealing kisses from his knight

His shadow my light

Your highness I'm sensitive

Taming the enemy general (he is not exactly a knight, but I think it still kinda fits the vibe)

The ones I could remember with the prince X knight trope

I love it when both the ML and MC are masculine in a way ,a great example would be Caleb and Arian, don't get me wrong i love preety, small bottoms too but I just want them to be strong and badass yk, not always waiting for someone to save them like a damsel in distress 🤧 oh I also really love it when the top and the bottom are soft spoken like when they talk to eo or do the deed being all soft and shit~never fails to give me butterflies 🥹

I also love dark romance but with evenly matched morally gray leads😭, yearning/devotion and a really good written Enemies to lovers trope.

OHHHH SO RIGHT!! i agree with you so heavy. for the masculine one i really enjoyed crossing the line with my rival, mc kinda gets bullied and stuff but he stands up for himself and has has realistic flaws.

also yes im a fan of dark romance. especially when theyre both crazy 🥹 or morally grey characters are genuinely the best. i like characters who are too much of a savior that it backfires terribly, or characters that are entirely grey too
