So I just handed in my
sn_exchange assignment a little before last week, and have been on a break from LJ ever since. It's refreshing, to say the least. Anyway, I discovered that lately I've been failing quite miserably at writing porn.

This way to the sexy meme. )
Just have to say that I loved it - your OroSasu one-shot, I mean. It was beautiful - in a cold, brutal and unforgiving way, but that's how I always like it. If someone can write a situation that is horrendously awful in a way that's beautiful, I can admire that. You pulled it off. Kudos! :) Your Oro was awesome (vain, eloquent, spoiled, psychotic) and your Sasuke was spot on (insolent, stand-offish, revenge-retarded). There were some awesome lines and images in here too.
"Orochimaru was a genius. But he was also vain."
Great line to start a new section with. Short and to the point; brutal, like Oro and the whole messy situation Sasuke has found himself in. It also manages to sum up a whole lot about Oro as a character. Nice...
"Orochimaru had always had a certain fondness for lost, hungry strays."Again, awesome because it is true, and tragic because Oro is a psychopath and we all know what ( ... )

Before I reply to your other comment, I should tell you that your OroSasu stories were what got me into the pairing in the first place. I don't know why I chose to venture into the OroSasu fandom (there was jut something so appealing and twisted about it...), but I'm glad I did.
I think I'll go read the rest of ADitL now (I'm still reading through chapter 36)
Now, excuse me while I hyperventilate.

I'm glad you think it's 'beautiful' - that's quite a compliment. Writing Orochimaru proved to be a challenge at first - it took me a while to even get a glimpse inside his head, and to do that, I had to write down all the qualities I associated with our dear villain, 'genius' and 'vain' being two of many.
I think out of all the seven oneshots I've written, I was most enthusiastic about this one (SasuSaku and ShinoHina are a close second).
Oro is a psychopath and we all know what he does with his lost, hungry strays. - That we do. Is it bad that I love Oro for being the psychopath he is? I do remember being pissed off when Kishimoto started to emasculate the guy, and then killed him off altogether! Seriously, he had the potential to be the greatest evil-doer of all time! :'( Naruto just... isn't the same without him.
This one was really creepy (in a good way) because I had visions of that infamous scene in Silent Hill 2 when Pyramid Head does something pretty fucking nasty... - I'm to ( ... )
