Criteria! ; Of course, it has to take place when they like each other; even if they don't know it yet. Also, I DON'T want things to work out right away. I like my manga with plenty of angst, so that's no good. Also, after this happens, I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT WANT the main character to be reduced to a sobbing mass of tears. She can be depressed, of course, but I want a strong main character. No moping! She can cry and mope for a couple of pages at most, but not more then that all at once. It can be spaced out, though. OH. And they have to still like each other afterward.
It would be nice if it takes awhile for them to notice they have feelings for each other.
EDIT;
I only want the main characters to have sex after they've already known each other for quite awhile, AND I only want them to have sex once, then stop for awhile. They can do it again later, but preferably not for at least 7+ chapters.
Examples! (Because this is sorta hard for me to explain properly);
The One
Spoiler (highlight to view)
When the Silver-Eyed Monster (I can't remember his real name) almost half-rapes her to throw that one spy dude off her trail. This allows you to see how they both feel about each other, is *probably* going to allow her to make the decision to go to Paris, and of course, adds wonderful angst. <3
Kirai
Spoiler (highlight to view)
How they have sex, and then they practically pretend how it never happened while at the same time making it further the plot and their relationship... so excellently done!
WHAT I DO NOT WANT. ~~~
I do not want a whiny, sniveling main character. I also don't want one who obsesses over every little thing the main lead does. I also don't want it to be a mostly physical relationship; I want it to be emotional, and the sex (or almost sex), just moves the plot along a little and adds spice.
Also, I don't want the common shoujo girl. No bloody way.
Anyway, please and thank you!
