not-so-thinky thoughts

1) i am a total contrary brat. give me a fandom, any fandom. one pairing will appeal to me the most. for some reason, one boy will keep being written as a bottom. very shortly, i will get super pissed off on his behalf. he's not a girl. he's not weak. stop making him cry, and goddamnit, let the man top every once in a while!

*grr*

so yeah. jensen on top - rec me, please.

2) we saw prince caspian today. i had *so* many naughty thoughts.

i'd feel badly about it, but really, why bother? i've always thought boys like that were so pretty, from when i was a little girl myself. i think it's ok if i still think that flavor of boyish beauty is lovely, even if i am old enough to be their mothers.

also, my husband laughs at me when i squee.

3) my brain is in such a writey mood, but not enough to actually, say, open MS Word. Just enough to play out little "what if" plotlines in my head.

also? tell my brain to stop with the Wincest, please. i keep telling it not to go there but it doesn't listen, like some unruly, deviant, horny teenager. "i can go there if i want to and you can't stop me so nyah." :P

i think i need to put my brain on probation until it behaves better.

4) also, my shift key isn't working very well. i'm not just trying to be some pretentious e.e. cummings wanker. feh.

A bit of both, I would imagine. I know for the whole, pure fantasy thing, that giving up all control can be very attractive, and the whole negotiation thing can be a drag. It can also be interesting. I mean, The Story of O doesn't exactly cover negotiating a scene and proper use of safe words, nor do any of Rice's Sleeping Beauty books. But, I've read a few that seemed to be trying to do a realistic job of portraying kink, and o holy fuck me somebody's gonna get hurt if they take this seriously.

On the other hand, the is a rather good Vigorli story with Orli as the top, that not only covers negotiation, but addresses ways things can go wrong when you don't communicate well, and often. "Boundaries" by [livejournal.com profile] lostiawen. Everybody who wants to write kink should read it.

Hehehe - Losti and I were chatting online a lot during that period and bounced around several ideas while she was writing. She was a big influence on me. :)

I persanally think the challenge is in making consent and safety part of the fic, but not the focus. Just so paranoid people like me can relax and feel good about what follows. *g*
