Definitely, I hand you a big slab meaty WORD on this.
(And yeah, FAKE doesn't really have that seme/uke stereotype. The main pairing? They are equals, bitches. FAKE is definitely one of the more "realistic" slash pairings to me. "YnM" isn't too bad, either.)
I liked the idea of Sora/Riku after I played the game. Two minutes online and dealing with fandom, I quickly started to hate it. Man, I was even like that with Axel/Roxas. I was okay with it after KH2, then two minutes with fandom, I just can't take it.
Mostly, the things WRONG with almost any pairing is that it's always so badly written. Chances are, I'm going to read an Aerith/Goofy fic before I'm going to read about Sora/Riku or Axel/Roxas. Chances are, I'm going to enjoy taking a look at Rai/Kairi before I want to go hunting for Cloud/Leon. The more unusual the pairing, more likely it's going to be well written. Though this is not always the case~ It seems like the more popular the pairing, the more badly it's going to be written -- and yet, the more bad writing, the way more popular it is and it only gets... MORE BAD WRITING.
