Oh, niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. I like the weather and the domestic detail, to say nothing of the sheer heat.

And I think there is something - subtle but it's there, I think, although I can't pin it down - that makes this distinctly an s4 fic, not (say) s3 or 2. Apart from the obvious reference to Tormented Space, I mean. Hmm, thinkiness. Yay, porn!

(Btw, is the title a deliberate Ntozake Shange ref? *g*)

Thanks RW! *g* I wrote this with season 4 in mind, and even though I intentionally wrote it as angst-free, there's still that tension there of missed chances and possession that we saw in canon. That's something I think that will work itself out in time, but may never fully go away. *loves the 'ship*

Btw, is the title a deliberate Ntozake Shange ref? *g*

:) Of course it is. You would figure it out. I was going to add a footnote saying that if the title sounded familiar it's because I blatantly lifted it from Shange, but changed my mind at the last minute.

I enjoyed this! It was very nice to come home to and read.

His thumbs hook into the sides of her briefs and drag down, pausing just above the curve of her ass, and he jams his hands beneath to cup her fully. John boosts her up in his arms, squeezing the cheeks as he deepens the kiss.

The visual I get with this part makes me go guh, I'll be in my bunk and all those other catch phrases. John can't wait long enough to strip her completely of her underwear. Guh, again. That is hot.

I think I need to read this again.

Thanks Paige, I appreciate the feedback. That's one of those scenes that remained fresh in my mind as I wrote this, because yes it is so hot omg. I wish I had a more deeper meaning that the hotness, but alas I don't. *g*

Dude! Why didn't you tell me you'd posted the porn? I've been glued to the HP Wank to End All Wank all day and it is fascinating. It's like an E! True Hollywood Story. I'll be back to read later.

What are you talking about? I'm out of the loop as always.

How much time do you have? :) Start here: http://www.journalfen.net/community/bad_penny

Honestly, I posted the fic and went on about my day. I got distracted myself and sort of forgot about it until I checked my email. I'll probably not post fic on a Monday ever again for that reason. I know there was a lot going on for myself, so I can imagine how it was for others. Or maybe they just didn't enjoy it, who knows? But it's done, and now I move on to the next. No worries. ;)

It's like an E! True Hollywood Story.

Hee! Exactly. It was so riveting and mind boggling and full of batshit insanity. Couldn't look away.

This is so fucking good. The dust and sex mixed together, omg so hot on John/Aeryn.

Dude the HP wank had me up late last night. I'll be online for most of the day so please to be pinging me when you get a chance.

sugargroupie June 20 2006, 20:39:05 UTC

Thanks girl, glad you enjoyed it. I'll ping a little later. I'm going to curl up on a heating pad and watch vampire softcore porn (otherwise known as Underworld Evolution).

This is gorgeous.

wants to hold him inside her and set his fingers to her mouth as she comes.
I like this.

They've developed a shorthand in proximity; the absence of space, and the breadth of it, is its own language. She bumps her shoulder into his and he follows. He brushes his arm against hers and she changes direction.
Good observation.

I like the reference back to Sykar.

Just checking to see how far the dust goes," he murmurs close to her ear, fingertips swirling patterns across her skin.
Very nice line.

And this:
She can taste the edge of orgasm, how it thrums like violence along her skin, and hovers on his lips as he nudges her face with his for a kiss.
Also lovely imagery.

Emotionally rich, strong grounding in the physical. All in all, very satisfying.

*g* Thank you, again.
