Picked this one up somewhere, it intrigued me.

Bold the clichés you have written, and italicize those you've considered writing.

Genderswap: Not really. Discussed it as a concept, but not as something I personally wanted to write.

Bodyswap: Thought about it, yes.

Drunk!fic: I've used it as a plot device, but not a plot.

Huddling together for warmth: Unfortunately, the fic stalled out and I will probably never finish it.

Undercover in a gay bar: Nope.

Pretending to be married: Um...yes... :D

Secretly a virgin: No. I suppose I can see why someone would want to keep it a secret, but it seems a pretty strange idea for a plot to me.

Amnesia: Oh heck yes.

Cross-dressing: Not that I can remember.

Forced to share a bed: Yes indeed!

Aliens make them do it: But I'm not going to explain how, where, or who.

Wingfic: Er, what?

Mpreg: No, I find the idea generally silly. Though as an old friend once pointed out, Octavia Butler did it once very, very well.

Mistakenly assumed to be gay: Nope.

Let's play truth or dare: Absolutely not. I find the idea of adults doing this to be strained at best.

Mary Sue fic: Aside from the stuff I wrote when I was twelve? *grin* Yes, as a pun, but again it will probably languish unfinished.

Aphrodisiacs: Do magical truth-forcing peaches count? No, I guess not, they didn't have any sex.

Curtainfic: I had to look this one up, but yes, quite a bit. Mostly in the shorter ones.

Hurt/Comfort: By all means!

Apocalypse fic: Don't think so.

Someone has a baby: Twice, I think.

Baby!fic: Nope.

Telepathic soulbonding: I really ought to take another look at that one, it had potential. And I can actually say that with a straight face...it's all in the setting, believe me.

Werewolves mate for life: Do they?

If you want to know about any of these (except the aliens one) feel free to ask.

I'm going to take you seriously, half because I'm curious myself. *snerk*

Amnesia: Mnemosyne's Lock, Iron Man

Forced to share a bed: Best Served Cold, CSI

Aphrodisiacs: Clinging to the Truth, CSI

Curtainfic: April Flowers, Fruit of Her Labors, Marking Time, Rise and Shine, CSI and at least two C/W.

Hurt/Comfort: Briar, Cliche, Proud Flesh, Horizon if you want to count it, In the Center, Many Waters, Recycling, Unbreaking, Beholding, all CSI; Matters of the Heart, Law and Order: Criminal Intent; and Mnemosyne's Lock again.

Someone has a baby: Coin, CSI; The Meeting Time, Firefly

Pretending to be married: Not posted yet...

Huh, I have no idea why LJ is adding stuff to the links, but they aren't too hard to figure out anyway.

I was being completely serious. I love me some good cliche fic and I've been very blah about reading fic recently so a good list is great. :)

Hee! Well, enjoy...some of those are OLD.

Maybe it's just me, but putting the idea of "Pretending to be married" with the "werewolves mate for life" theme would be perfect for you and Cinco to collaborate on :-)

*laughs hysterically while typing, forcing the edit later*

I need to lay off the hot buttered rum.

My mind boggles. But I'll suggest it! One never knows... :P

What did the rum do that deserves firing?

Oh, you know the usual...showing up empty, buttering up the other rums, punching out the Pussers repeatedly. You can never trust those Caribe boys. And when the captain's not happy, well, you'd better buckle your swash.

*laughter* Perhaps you should switch to the Poles.

The Curtainfic's aren't on your site? Yeah, I'm reading them again... *blush*

They are, but the links here are messed up, sorry. Apparently I can no longer edit the comment. Most of them are here.
