Incesty Pairings

[deird_lj]

So, I come bearing pollage.

I've seen a lot of conversations about fanfic recently, in which people have discussed different pairings and said "That pairing squicks me out. It's... almost incestuous."

And I was wondering which pairings are most likely to strike people that way.


So, under the cut is a poll, full of pairings!
Rate each pairing from 1 (not incestuous in the slightest) to 10 (really really incestuous and squicky).

You have two identical Buffy/Wesley questions.

I have to admit that I have never seen anything particularly incestuous about pairing Connor with Fred or Cordelia. I understand intellectually why it strikes people that way, but I don't have the same feelings.

I note that, to me, vamp!Willow/Willow is very nearly masturbatory; Fred/Illyria, while it probably shouldn't be, is similar. Therefore I am utterly unsquicked.

Finally, I'm a little surprised that you don't seem to have noticed my latest fic about Illyria, especially since it's at Still Grr. Apologies if you have just been too busy to read or comment; I mention it because I thought you would find it interesting.

Yeah, I realised too late. It was supposed to be Buffy/Faith... *facepalm*

I tend to read Still Grrr in one big rush while tagging. Right now, I'm still back at the start of the prompt. :)
