...At the least, because almost everything I write takes place post-GS4!
Anyway, I'm glad you're enjoying the games. I agree with a lot of what you say on pairings--I love anything with Gumshoe, and yes he writes "DG + ME 4EVA" on all his notebooks--but I still do write almost exclusively Phoenix/Miles. A lot of people complain in the fandom that it's overdone, and I do usually go for less popular pairings, but the two are just so bloody gay for one another that it's hard to ignore. I also just enjoy their interaction in the games. I guess pretty much all I write is stuffy-guy-who-fakes-suicide/put-upon-guy, heh. :D
The het pairings are often problematic. There's a few that work for me in the later games, but I don't remember anything in the first two--maybe because it's been a bit.
I DO, however, hold a flame for Franziska/Maya. I mean, Maya's pretty much the only person foolish brave enough to go on that date, but I haven't really had the courage to write any. It's been a while since I've played the second game, as I said, and I'm too worried about my grip on their characters. D:
Also, on other things in your post: ah, GANT. If you've been around the meme at all, you know he's good for one thing: FANDOM RAPIST. Every fandom needs a go-to guy for all their RAPE NEEDS, and he's pretty much it. And the parrot? Yeah, that's pretty much what you gotta go back to the second you start taking these games at all seriously. XD
