I know this one! I came across the excerpt in the WA forum. I was immediately curious to read it because of what you were saying about the Blake/Avon pairing.
While I can't comment on the ooc-ness (before recently googling it, I thought Blake's 7 was an anime show :))), I fully agree with you that the thing doesn't feel natural at all. To be honest, I think my first drafts of 'emotional scenes' pretty much look like that. :P
The comment you quoted really was surprising because... How can something that does not feel like an interaction between real people feel okay at all?
But yeah, the critique threads have been rather awkward lately. I wish I had something meaningful to feedback on the texts posted there, but... I don't. :/
