Inclusionist writing. That's what I would like to see. Truly inclusionist, that shows real life, real things, normal things.

lol I'm working very very slowly on a Mutual Service fic where Ianto's on the phone to Rhiannon, he's about to put her on speaker phone when Jack comes back in with the Indian so he can nom at the same time.
