Hee, it is funny and a little weird to meet people on LJ and realize that they already know stuff about you. :D Especially since I'm guessing you learned that I was poly from the thread about Elizabeth on fanficrants where I was in a crappy mood and kind of out of line in retrospect. Sorry about that!
And yeah, poly is not for everybody. :) Threesomes are pretty much my favorite thing ever, but I know people for whom the whole idea is one big nightmare, and I totally get that, too. It is definitely complicated sometimes. I love fics that deal with the emotional tensions and difficulties that go into that kind of relationship, not just the fun parts.
One thing I like in this fandom is that the majority seems to prefer to have either OT3 or Peter/Neal and Peter/Elizabeth with Elizabeth being okay with it -- not cheating on her or leaving her out. In my last fandom, the most popular "solution" to a character in a popular slash pairing being in a canon relationship with a woman was to break up the canon couple in like two sentences and then move on to the slash... I was not so much a fan of that.
