User blog comment:Laconia/The Lady's Romance Rant/@comment-923138-20110517031828

Given the military sci-fi genre, the majority of editors here tend to be teenage males, or girls with tomboys-esque qualities (the exact opposite of the rest of the Internet!). Because of this we tend to really see very little romance fiction written, aside from "I am writing this character's bio, and they married some person along the way, now back to the story." And while 118 is right that we do block "OMGSEX" fiction, and that it's rarer here than on FF.net, that doesn't mean it hasn't come before (I do NOT want to think of the Ultrospurple incident!)

Nevertheless, though, I do agree that it's a genre that holds some potential that hasn't been mined very much. The one I have found that I would definitely recommend, though, is Subtank's "Filial Devotion", which on this wiki has been taken down for revision but appears to be available on Ascendant Justice! Check it out! (That reminds me, Subs, you know I'm still holding the spot waiting for that one collab that...)

But we do need more like that, more honorable works to fill that genre. Here the problem is "lack of" rather than "excess of." What made you want to write this?
