We do all have a tendency towards the angst end of writing, don't we? I seem to remember having a conversation with Telperion_15 ages ago when S2 was still airing, and commenting that even if next week's episode was a fun and happy birthday party where they all had a good time, ate lots of cake, and no-one had any fights, the fic writers would *still* manage to write angsty fic about it afterwards!
