FIC: Soaked

The notes that follow are not necessary to receive this drabble and can impose certain interpretation, so feel free to skip them if you’d rather avoid this. The fic can of course stand on its own, and is another take on the rain prompt at sirius_remus100.

I wrote this piece for paulamcg (at least in as much as I could ever write anything for anyone), whose particular

Could you write the lovely towel scene in order to see what it would reveal to you, and just not share it? Am I now ready to break my rule that fiction (art) must be communication? Or you could share it (first) only with me?

You actually tempt me to act against my conviction and to try writing a kiss (and more?) It’s incredible that I’ve spent four years in the fandom, three years aware of the fact that I belong to a community of puppyshippers, and I’ve never before considered writing anything more explicitly R/S. I don’t think it would be too much like carelessly playing with the precious characters, if I wrote an intimate situation which I can believe my Remus and Sirius have shared. It would be like playing with my writer’s image, and perhaps I’ve taken myself too seriously. I could post the piece only on remusxsirius, not on my journal, and I could get another icon to use, if not another user name…

It’s strange that I wasn’t tempted when I still cared more about popularity and had some hope for it. I’m glad that you have at least tried writing kisses, so you know you can use them when they can serve any purposes.

I do hope your Opera is still alive.

I think I will write the towel scene. I even hope to do it tonight, after I have replied to everything. There’s one more scene I want to write, actually, and it also remains in connection to the rainy fight. As for sharing, I suppose it will depend on whether some purpose reveals itself in the process or not. And if I do write it and it doesn’t turn out dreadful, I promise to share the fic with you. After all, it’s your order, isn’t it? (Thus I am beginning to write to order. What’s happening to us, to our rules?! You temptress!)

Oh, for pity’s sake, you almost killed me with this image: PaulaMcG PamelaO’P - the Porn Queen of Fandom, plus a smutty icon, necessarily with a collar. Brilliant! When do you start writing?

And seriously, would you really consider writing something more explicit? Because I know I would, if I only saw a purpose. Perhaps I will, as Winter (one of the lalallama_girls) convinced me to try and write this horrible fic I’d told you about, with Remus agreeing to sleep with Sirius against his own will. (Winter’s also the one who gave me the original idea.) In this case I see the purpose of some more explicit descriptions (but I doubt “more” means “much” in anyone’s understanding, anyway), the problem is that I’m not sure whether I believe this could happen, whether I actually see it.

No, it isn’t strange at all that you wouldn’t have wanted to write kisses earlier. You have always written only with a purpose in your mind, and I’m sure that this is still the necessary condition. Perhaps now it might be fulfilled, is all.

Thank you for breaking your rules and writing to order! The second piece surprised me completely, and in a good way. They should both be shared with R/S fans, the second one particularly even somewhere like hogwarts_today. I think it can work separately, too - without the idea of (two-month) separation.

Oh, now you almost killed me and made me start planning an explicit story by Pamela. I could even think of some purposes. A bit later I was reminded of why it’ll be hard for me to make my charaters and readers enjoy the scene. But I don’t care for eating either and I can write about Remus enjoying meals - while I actually prefer his starving.

In fact, I could find a fic based on Winter’s idea particularly interesting, if not so pleasant, to read. Could you see it happening in an alternative reality? Because maybe your Remus and Sirius are not completely established as persons in whole lives, I think I could accept that.

Thank you again for your wonderful comments on the last two rainy drabbles! I know now I will post them in my LJ and on ff.net, just when I have some more time and attention to spare.

You write Remus enjoying his meals splendidly, so I imagine you can also manage to write good explicit stories. So, have you already started on something? When can I see it?

I’ve never written AU, but as my fics seem to slowly become a whole in my eyes, this one (currently under a working title “Choice”) would be sort of AU in the, er, Ishonn-verse or something.
