Love it when the hero's like 'i can fix you' and the Villains like, "I can make you worse." Just mutually destroying everything the others ever known. Both are too stubborn to stop before they've won. Both get too deep.
"You saved me but doomed yourself."
"pffft, being good was just so boring."

I hate archetypes but I simp so hard for characters who absolutely are archetypes but like multiple opposite ones stuffed together like my characters include-
A hopeless romantic princess with a minor addiction to pink that you would literally never see without multiple swords at her waist and no one bats an eye at it.
A gruff mean political/ war tactician princess who can absolutely sucks at swordplay (she says it's cause of her power, only partially true) literally feel everyone pain/sadness and a little obsessed with saving everyone (and totally oblivious that literally bring kind to them would do that)
An exiled princess who loves reading and traveling is literally one of the best people who also does dark magic and and casually tries to wake a literal wmd beast

"I'm only fighting these (Eldritche horror levels of danger) for you because I want to kill you myself. Don't think I'm trying to save you or care about you or anything. I totally totally don't." —the enemies to lovers dynamic we all love to see.
Pls follow to help me grow
The pushing them away was designed to be such a can't go wrong with it trope it's honestly impressive how wrong twilight managed to go with it.
The 'im afraid whatever I can give them is just a cheap imitation of love and they deserve so much better than that' SLAps
The 'my entire life is walking on eggshells and they should get to live their lives to the fullest'
The screaming confessions in the rain like 'if you really love me you should know that being with you is what I want and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to do that,' ahHh
It's meant to show how deeply they care about each other and how much they're willing to sacrifice for each other but Hollywood really went no, commitment issues haha

A concerning amount are just the reverse of other popular tropes but-
Grumpy x sunshine but the grumpy's smol and sunshine tol. It's just gold
Grumpy's all pissed and got their hands crossed and sunshine just... Picks them up. And carries them on their side like a clutch. And their like 😡💢 put me down!! And they coo at them like awww! how adorable.
Their enemies and grumpy gets all in their face trying to threaten em a n d sunshine pets. their. head. I'm 😭
Enemies to lovers combat things I will give up my mother's first born for— I'm an only child btw
Swordfight interactions when one of them is gaining and the swords are at the other's shoulder and their faces are too close
ESPECIALLY, if the other flirts or kisses the other to distract them
Any type of flirtation intended as a distraction for that matter
When one gets both swords and pins the other between a wall and them with a sword embedded on either side of them like giant thumb tacks
A Bending way too low to avoid an attack and being caught just as their balance fails them
B pulling A's hand hard after and A is flung at B's chest
Abruptly pushing them back after that cause why not (they were flustered and have no social skills)

You know that trope of they were childhood sweethearts/ crushes and gifted some personalized gift or even some random offhand token like a handkerchief or hoodie? Yeah but were separated for a long time but then are brought back together in wildly different circumstances and they're at their place and they see it, clearly preserved with care?!;!!
Yeah I'll take 79326038+ of that exact same trope.

Enemies to lovers things that make me go ahHh— Angst edition promt
After being vulnerable with each other and revealing their deep secrets, something brings them back on opposite sides and they're fighting (combat optional but preferred) and the villian's so frustrated that they're fighting when they don't want to but because they have issues™ they react by trying to hurt hero more than them, pushing them farther and farther making them angrier, until they say that one thing and the hero stops and then their face visibly crumbles, looking shaken and hurt and betrayed, BETRAYED. And because the villian sucks they feel satisfied for a sec before it truly settles and they realise what they did and immediately start to regret it but it's too late the hero saw them be pleased. It's already over for the hero.

For you to fill with recreations of your own trauma
Like a tragedy bin.
I won't let you mangle
My mind and body
Till I can't see skin beneath the scars.
I will resist;
Brutally and unattractively;
— With fire and blood.

One of my absolute favourite tropes is when the sarcastic character gives the villian nicknames calling them out on their bullcrap and the villian absolutely loosing his shit being flabbergasted.
The villian being all " I am the master of evil, the carrier of blah blah"
And then sunshine going, are you done emo man??
*the villian visibly loosing his shit*
I will flip the table
Too many of my favourite tropes are just popular trope x exact opposite, but, cocky Villains are great but, but villains with chaotic energy and filled with self doubt + self-deprecating humour. I dunno could be really good.
" That really should NOT have worked."
*wide eyed and nodding head excessively* "Yup, yup definitely should not have, yup, but uh, it did, and ah, I don't know what to do now, you see I thought I'd be blown to bird food by now. But I can't ever have what I want can I?"
*awkwardly* "oh, ah, I see, umm, are you okay?... Buddy?"
*loud explosion* *wipes black dust out of face with a deadpan* "And of freakin cause my dear experiment literally blows up in my face. Of freakin cause"
"Why *Straight up bawling* can't anything ever go according to plan." *More whining noises*
"Why does the universe hate me!!"
Just pure cartoonish tomfoolery (bonus points if hero is kalm™ and they fit one of them is on a leash cause they can't be trusted couple trope)
