… we revel in the tropes -- we take those tidbits from favorite canons and twist them, turn them, fix the way the tropes were done wrong and come up with brand-new tropes so we can do them right.
Challenge #14
In your own space, share your love for a trope, cliché, kink, motif, or theme. (Or a few!) What makes it particularly appealing for you? What do you like in fanworks featuring that trope?

I can’t remember people using the word trope before my hiatus, before 2011. Perhaps I could mention something less specific, and name it Hurt/Comfort and Angst With Hope. But having checked the definition of trope in fanlore (devices and conventions that a writer can reasonably rely on as being present in the audience members' minds and expectations), I got the idea to write about a couple of tropes related to a these situations in Remus Lupin’s and/or Sirius Black’s lives: Lying Low At Lupin’s and the Lost Years.
( coming to a cottage – or a flat )
( themes? )
( a kink? )
