The really nice thing about this fandom was that just about anything worked - you could play with all the characters sort of like Legos, either in romance or gen fic (and I guess you still can if you can ignore the commenters and the writers who seem more interested in getting "revenge" in their stories on fans whose preferences they don't agree with). There was only one fandom I ever liked slash in before this one; I've been mostly a het writer/reader, aside from writing some general stories as well.
