so, where's the X rated Bedroom Poll?

I also have this crazy idea with Luke getting annoyed at the pager going off at all times that he wants separate rooms. Reid's only too happy about that, because Luke's snoring is about the only think in the world keeping him away. (And he ignores Luke's protests about his own snoring, because he doesn't hear that after all)

Heh, I'm sure we'll get to that eventually. ;) Still plenty of summer/writers-slaving-away-over-Big-Bang-fics drought to fill.

Ha, I can totally see that. Especially Reid's grumbling about the snoring (isn't the "I can't hear my own snoring, thus it's not a problem or plain not true" excuse just the best?). And you know what I would love? A ficlet about how the whole separate rooms thing happens - grumbling and all - and that it's not the end of the world and doesn't mean that they love each other any less, just that sleep is an important commodity. *nudge nudge* ;)

Excellent questions. I hadn't given a lot of thought to some of them before so it was interesting to think about.

In case you're looking for more suggestions:

Home décor:
Contemporary
Traditional
Eclectic
Modern
Country
Other

Aww, happy you think so. :)

And we'll be sure to put home décor on the list!

Oh man, now that I'm thinking about it, I want to change my answer about the pillows. At first I was thinking that Reid would be one of those people who would want a bunch of pillows for himself (I said 4 -- two for his head, one for his knees, and one against his chest -- I mean, we know he's a pillow hugger, right?), but now I'm thinking that after going through med school and residency and learning to sleep anywhere and at any time, he'd have years ago gotten totally used to sleeping with the bare minimum as far as comfort goes. So maybe he would be satisfied one simple pillow.

You already figured out how to change your vote, right? I was sort of thinking Reid was one of those people who didn't like not having anything between his knees, so I gave him long pants, but I like your thinking with the pillows. :)

And I dunno, that makes sense (we know he can apparently sleep in chairs), but why not go all out in your own home?

I am terrible about leaving comments ...especially for all of our wonderful writers! But this poll was so fun. I can totally see Luke being a bit 'modest' and thus sleeping with clothes....but Reid and his confidence, I can totally imagine him sleeping in the nude (or maybe that is my wishful thinking!).

I am looking forward to more polls....especially the NC-17 version! ;)

Aww, glad you came out and commented here! I definitely don't comment often enough on the stories I read, so I hear ya.

It's kinda funny how the general consensus seems to be that Luke's more covered up in bed, heh. Guess that means Reid has to work a little harder for it. :D

Great idea for a poll, but gee, I've never thought about any of this before, so it took me awhile to respond. I thought they both hog the covers, but ended up buying a really big duvet so there's still plenty to be had for each of them. I also thought that they fall asleep with a fair amount of body contact (could be spooning, head on shoulder, etc.), but as the night progresses, they continue to touch (whether it's rear to rear or hand slung across), but not as much.

Oh, and Luke was used to wear pajamas to bed before he began sleeping with Reid, but Reid teased him about it (I think the N-word was mentioned) and now Luke, after getting over his modesty, prefers to sleep nude these days.

You haven't? Like, not at all? Or just about the NC-17-rated aspects? ;)
And I can totally get behind all that!

I never thought about what they wore to bed because I knew they didn't wear anything. As for the rest, no, I hadn't (I was too busy thinking about the NC-17 stuff! Much more interesting!) Also, I've spent so much time thinking about them during different times in their relationship..I know that some things change (e.g., sleeping patterns) depending what stage you are in your life.

Ha, see? So you did think about it. ;) But yeah, I totally get that. I'm more of a fan of domestic LuRe myself, so I tend think more about the "trivial" things, I guess.

This is fun! I too have wondered such details when writing fics.

As much as I'd like to think of them naked anytime they're in bed, I say that Luke sleeps in PJ pants and a tshirt, and Reid in long sleep pants. They both used to sleep in the nude or in boxers but after many a late-night interruption from one of the Snyders or Katie w/Jacob, they both know to cover up decently just in case. It's easier to be partially dressed than to be naked and running around looking for clothes when someone's knocking at 2 a.m ( ... )

LOL, the earplugs. Almost forgot about that...

They both have sides. Reid is rigid like that.

Yeah, that's my thinking as well. I went for left for Reid because if he's that rigid about his toothbrush...
