If It's You, It's Okay

Someone who's mostly straight or gay, with one exception. It's often separated into three categories:

Sole Exception: The character in question has a one-off attraction to that person that transcends their sexual preference. This is based on mutual compatibility, or otherwise emotional attraction(this is similar to Demisexuality).

Even the Gays/Straights Want Them: The target of attraction is presented as being physically attractive enough to transcend the sexual preferences of people, not just the attracted character.

Closet Key: The exception gradually becomes the rule for that character (this not being a subversion as such as the trope applies at the beginning of the relationship and is seen as responsible for the gradual reveal of the character's sexuality/gradual transition of their gender preference).

George: If it's you, it's okay, 'cause you're special, Love.
