Because I'm nosy

[turps]

I was thinking about pairings yesterday, about how when I post stories different people will comment depending on the pairing I'm writing about.

This got me wondering how deep OTP reading goes. Personally I only used to read the Chris pairings, but that's changed and I'll read most things now. Admittedly I much prefer stories where he's the focus, but there's many great non-Chris focussed stories out there, and I was missing out by passing them by.

So, I thought I'd poll and see what others think. You don't have to explain anything but feel free to discuss in comments. Same if I've missed something, which no doubt I have.

Justin/Lance is my OTP (OK, and Howie/Nick, but that's the other band ;) but I also love Choey and TrickC and Basez. There are a few other pairings I don't like (such as Timbertrick and Trickyfish and JuC). I will occasionally read these pairings if they're written by a good writer, but I won't necessarily read all stories that are these pairings written by a good writer.

Lambs!

I think while it's good to have an open mind about reading outside of your usual pairings, it's obvious that you'd go for favourites first. I mean, I would too.

Thanks for answering.
