OMG, I totally feel you on all of this! I went through the exact same thing with preferences until landing on a toppy!Draco preference, and lately it's becoming even stronger. I had a similar experience with a fic recently, and I totally came to the same conclusion, that the author had been building a sort of toppy!Draco dynamic between Draco and Harry throughout the fic, and then he became sort of needy and submissive during the sex scene and it was a huge disconnect for me. Which then make me feel guilty, because I know IRL how people behave outside the bedroom has no bearing on what they enjoy when it comes to sex, but I think that is sort of suspended when it comes to fic, because, for me, sex is an extension of the story. IDK, I also have difficulties expressing what I mean...it's hard! (lol, no pun intended)
