I haven't seen Bent so I can't comment on that, but regarding fic... I can read books that tear my soul (e.g. The Road but in general I avoid fic that will hurt me. I don't want death!fic or trauma. I want fluff and romance and the obligatory happy ending. Which is possibly completely daft. Maybe it's that I love these characters/people so deeply and I hate the thought of anything but romance and happiness. Sure, I don't mind them going through trials, so long as they end up together. ;) Or maybe it's that fic is my happy place where I retreat from all the crap that's going on in life. I don't pretend to understand it, but I am happy all the same.
Well this was a useless ramble. Apologies. I'm just happy to be back in touch. :)
