Two Pepper Potts Wallpapers

This is the last of the fandom_stocking  gifts, made for lacrimula_falsa who liked Pepper and bright colours. I was actually quite please with these, enough so that the first one is my own desktop at the moment.

Textures: burnedbreads, whitebamboo, magnolia-street

D/s preferences in fic...?

***

So here's a question to those of you who read fic with a d/s slant. Whether it's full on BDSM world AUs (like candy to me), formalised d/s relationships, or just characters being a bit toppy/subby in the bedroom (or out of it):

Do you have a really firm preference for a given pairing who is dominant, who submissive? Because boy howdy, I really do. There are certain pairings where I can. not. read. d/s flavoured fic if the dynamic written is opposite to my head canon. Like, I can see that the writing is great and the plot brilliant, whatever, but I just. can. not. And then. Some other pairings I don't mind at all which way the power pendulum swings.

To give you some examples, here's pairings where I cannot read (or have no interest in writing) fic with d/s dynamic unless it's in the specific direction as indicated below. Pairings listed in the dominant/submissive order

Hawaii Five-0: Danny/Steve
Person of Interest: Finch/Reese
Marvel: Bruce/Tony, Pepper/Tony, Steve/Bucky, Coulson/Clint
Bandom: Patrick/Pete, Gerard/Frank, Bob/Frank, Gerard/Mikey, Patrick/Gerard (look, Patrick tops everyone, okay?
Being Human: George/Mitchell
Stargate Atlantis: Rodney/John, Carson/Rodney, Radek/Rodney
Good Omens: Aziraphale/Crowley
Supernatural: Sam/Dean
Star Trek: McCoy/Kirk
Sherlock: John/Sherlock
Harry Potter: Remus/Sirius, Harry/Draco
NCIS: Tim/Tony
Grimm: Monroe/Nick
X-Men: Charles/Erik
Daredevil: Foggy/Matt

Common thread: it's the quiet, unassuming ones who bring it... I have a lot of head canon and feelings about this re the above pairings, ask me if you want to know more! Or get my thoughts on pairings not listed!

Furthermore, in the rare occasion I read het fic, I cannot stomach anything but femdom if power dynamics are introduced. Any hint of female submission in a het fic makes me extremely uncomfortable and I'll be hitting the back key no matter how good the writing, how healty/ssc the relationship portrayal etc.

Then again, there are tons of pairings where I don't mind switching it up (pun entirely intended). Mainly e.g. Panic boys from bandom (although I read Spencer as a top most of the time, I can be convinced otherwise), Hobbit/LOTR and, well probably some others.
