In which I ask you to ask me shit...

No idea what kind of a response this will get, but here is some meme-age for you:

Ask me a question about one of my stories. It can be absolutely anything in any fic and I will tell you the honest-to-god answer. Don’t hold back. Anything. Whatever you ask, I will try my best to answer.Feel free to ask about anything about future projects/sequels

HA HA HA! I love your comment/story!! I mean, I'm really sorry that I made you injure yourself! But at the same time, I can't help but be a little proud :-D Mostly I just hope that whenever you see the scar, you think of Jim Kirk's Massive Cock (either the story or the actual, ya know, thing). But anyway, thanks for telling me that, totally made my day :-)

As for your question, I'm not gonna lie, I spent all day thinking about it and wrote this long ass rambling answer that made no sense so I started over. The simple answer is, that's just how McCoy comes out when I write him, he's not influenced by anyone really, although there are definitely aspects of myself in his characterization (and yet, I would also say that there are aspects of myself in how I write Jim as well in some fics). I think what it comes down to is that I absolutely love Jim Kirk in ST:XI, and so it's easy for me to write about other people loving him - which is probably why I find myself writing from McCoy's perspective so often).

It's so interesting that you see your brainwaves in my McCoy ;-) What aspects of his personality are you thinking of? And what fics? In answering your question I've mostly been thinking of the Therapy AU. I see parts of myself in both Jim and Bones in that one, as well as aspects of my relationship, although none of it is really conscious. I feel like I write these characters with slightly different personalities depending on the fic, but now that I think about it, my characterization of Bones might be relatively consistent across fics. Anyway, I'm not sure if that really answers your question, but it's really made me think, so thanks!! I love it :-)

Well, by now it's healed over, and I admit, I was sad to see it go, because everytime I saw it and thought about it, I thought of that and the good times. XD That and there was always the temptation to brandish it at people and demand, "Do you know what this is from?!?!!" and after they alarmedly stumbled for an answer, declare "SLASHFIC!!" I never did that though. But it would've been funny.

Well, I guess in general (like from the actual series) Bones has some things in common with me part of why I like him, like how 2000% stubborn he is and a smartass while still caring about people. In the case of your fics, particularly in the ones such as Jim Kirk's Massive Cock and the Christmas gift ones, wherein we see his response to the beginning of his crush on Kirk, it's how he handles his lust that is so reminiscent of me--in other words, how he goes "DAMN NO WHAT THE FUCK I WILL NEVER GIVE IN, DAMMIT!! IT WILL GO AWAY IF I IGNORE IT!!" XD And continuing to make hilarious grim humor commentary in his head as he suffers.

But hey, glad I asked such a good question! Not that I meant to stump you, but it's cool it made you think about your creative process some more! ^.^
