Those are the ones that bug me. That and the ones where you start reading and they're just randomly together for no reason whatsoever. It's so out of character and mind-boggling. If I'm going to read it, it has to be in character and it has to be believable. WHY did they end up in this relationship? HOW? WHEN? There has to be a really really good reason for it. Saying "they were both hot" is NOT a reason for BROTHERS to start a relationship with one another.

The best reason I've come across is that they are all each other has, literally. Each one is the only person who really knows and understands the other, they've both got incredibly fucked-up pasts, they can't settle down, both have tried to have serious relationships with girls and they've all failed one way or another, and each is the single most important person in the other's life. Sure, there's Bobby. But he's a father figure. So inherently, any Wincest fanfiction MUST be an angst-ridden mindfuck. That's how I see it. If you really think about it...how would any of us feel if we suddenly found ourselves with romantic feelings for a sibling? SICKBADWRONG, right? The mental and emotional torture it'd inflict on both of them, before and after a relationship began, would be tremendous. And...juicy, actually, which is sort of the only reason I read it. I'm an angst-whore.

So. There's got to be a really good reason, there's got to be a LOT of angst, it can't happen pre-series, it can't involve abuse *shudders* and it has to be entirely consensual.

Blah, the whole taking-advantage scenario bothers me so much in general. (I mean, it's different when you're reading fic based in prison because that's just realistic.) But it especially bothers me with these two. Dean loves Sam SO MUCH. To read him in a fic where he takes advantage of/hurts Sam? He would never. And if he ever did, he'd probably top himself right after. And to read him in a fic where Sam takes advantage of him? He'd be devastated, but he wouldn't be able to LEAVE. And finally, in a fic where he ALLOWS Sam to take advantage of him? Makes my stomach clench because Dean probably would if he thought that was what Sam needed to go on, but to think of himself willingly breaking himself apart like that... *shudders* I can't even. Just...no. NO.

Not a reason to start a relationship, honey. Razz

A reason for them to have sex after starting a relationship? Hells yes. A reason for them to WANT to start a relationship? Of course. But considering the whole "omg brothers" thing, being hot does not a relationship make.

Two brothers being hot = PWP. PWP = just porn for porn's sake. Not that there's anything wrong with that!
