a bad influence

So I was chatting with this friend I know from several venues (gaming and bellydance mostly), and she writes PotC slash, and we were talking about writing techniques and actorfic and betas and so forth, and I asked:

--snip--
me: so how did you get into slash anyway?
<***> Um, it's your fault.
me: mine?
<***> Honestly.
me: how?
<***> After you posted about it to "Cant" last year, I went looking.
me: *blink* about LOTR specifically?
me: wow. um, sorry? ;)
<***> I had already been reading some lemon anime fanfic, but after you mentioned slash, I googled it, followed a bunch of links, and here I am.
me: wow. i feel so... influential
<***> yes, specifically LOTR. Felt curious after the "Secret Diaries".
<***> So yes, indeed, you can officially say that you have indeed corrupted someone.
me: cool!
--endsnip--

*grin*
yae! my plan for world-domination is underway!

Musings on consent and rape that I had to type in but probably shouldn't be read by anyone else ever. I just needed to get it out of my head. TMI and incoherency abound.

I like that fanfiction makes me think, often more than actual fiction. Unfortunately, I often do not like -what- it makes me think.
