i think i can go for some nice friendship stories right about now. all this crushing and angstying is great, but it's kind of empty, and i never believed love was empty.
Yeah, that's the only problem with this sort of pairing. Most of my 'ships have been best friend ships, because it can be more emotionally fullfilling.
of course, writing for best friend pairings also often end up repeating itself after a few fics, and they can get dull. So. Each kind of pairing dynamic has its drawbacks.
The Harry Potter fandom doesn't really have an unconditional, loving best friend pairing to work with, unfortunately. Too much resentment mixed up in Ron/Harry to apply.
