Aliens made us do it
From Fan History Wiki
This is a cliche that is written in many pieces of Slash and femslash, generally in a science fiction fandom universe. The basic idea is that somehow--be it alien technology or flora which affects human physiology, or a forced situation like an alien ritual--characters who otherwise would not engage in sexual activity willingly end up doing so. They may have secretly desired to become involved before these events, or may have been completely disinterested in doing so before. Fuck or die may be invokes in a story using the Aliens made us do it cliche, but not always.
Aliens made us do it is a popular way of getting two characters together, often in slash relationships although it can be found in het-fic as well. Some question the story-telling device, however, because by its very nature involves dub-con and may occasionally become rapefic.
