Stories and relationships without a romantic focus. My lord, do I agree. I can only think of a handful of fics without romance. Of course, there are some really fantastic ones, (I think we all know which ones those are ;) ) but after a while it just gets old. And since there is really only two canon pairings in K1 (minus Juhani), it pretty much becomes the same old, same old. And since the majority of those romance fics are written by the youth, they really aren't very realistic romances to begin with.
I have more to say, but right now I can't think of a very un-snarky way to say it. :P I agree with this list, and have some things to add, but they will have to come later, methinks.
