coming up: the last of my eurotrip, and why space cakes are a Very Bad Idea
but first, a meme!
Pick any passage of 500 words or less from any fanfic I’ve written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you the equivalent of a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first

soooo this is sort of my homage to pinocchio, hahaha. i hate that movie SO MUCH but the theme of it has stuck with me, so the basic idea when i started, apart from making sure this lived up to the original story, was the idea of david just wanting to be a real boy. ANYWAY. on with the commentary!

ah, fuck, this still hurts me a little to read. i love angsty kissing, especially when there's a push and pull element to it, like someone knows they need to hold back because it's not healthy to be doing this but they just can't help themselves, and here, when both of them are aware of that, aware that this needs to be over ( ... )
