Discworld slash is a slippery slope

It first happened when I read The Last Hero that I thought, "Hey, Ponder and Ridcully make a pretty funny double-act. You could almost see slash of them, haha! Yeah, right."

Then I read Unseen Academicals and it changed to "Wow, you could definitely read Ponder/Ridcully into this, if the idea weren't unappealing!"

Then I reread Going Postal and Making Money and it became "Well, it wouldn't be totally bad. Like, if it was just - you know - because their relationship - it's really rather sweet..."

And now I'm rereading Soul Music (which contains the first appearance of Hex, as well as a running joke about Wales, both of which I had forgotten) and I've accidentally come around to "I would totally read that."

Why is it always like this?
