Because it seems to be the current trend...
Dear Ace Lightning smut fandom,
Please exist! I demand to have the chance to rant at length about mind-bending squicks (lo, even unto the literal meaning of the word), romantic non-con, implausible anatomies, hilariously evasive descriptions of rose-petaled flowers and organs of love and second swords, and the wrong characters bottoming!
We have canon necrophilia. We have a gloriously romantic OTP. We have close male buddies. We have close female buddies. We have feisty redheads and tentacled overlords. We have virginal heroes and experienced heroines. We have underaged teenagers (heck, it worked for Harry Potter). We have married couples. We have shapeshifting and genderbending. We have guinea pigs (and giant wasps).
We could have less listening to the organ and more shaking the coffin. We could have less pining-for-the-hero and more pinning-him-to-the-bed-in-temporarily-assumed-male-form. We could have less whining about MPD making one want to kill everything in sight and more sexual healing. We could have more swords, staffs, lances and balls, or possibly more dark caverns of solitude. We could have less viewing of battles through distant monitors and more voyeurism of bedrooms. We could have less tentaclegroping, too.
So why, dare I ask, is our adultfanfiction.net section completely bare, and we possess nary but a Sparx/Fear and Sparx/Rick, and those not publicly posted?
Yours in hope,
Sarah
