Ugh, busy busy busy. I'm moving house on Friday and packing is basically the most stressful thing ever. I have so much pointless shit! But aside from being all stressed I'm mostly kind of sadfacey about the move, because I grew up here and I can't quite imagine never being able to go back ( Read more... )

i have very wierd ideas on this kind of thing to be honest...in real life, the idea of kathryn and megan kissing is totally horrible and wrong... but the idea of emily and katie kissing seems totally fine...

i guess thats just my mind saying its fine in fiction but should never never happen irl

just my thoughts...

I don't think that's a weird way to look at it at all! Probably most people who ship incest pairings are in the 'it's okay because it's fictional' camp.

LOLOLOL this is probably an appropriate time to mention that someone on your LJ mentioned Joe Jonas/his mom pr0n and I READ IT, just because it was there. D: *scrubs brain*

I'm not that into Katie/Emily- but the subtext is definitely there. I watched skins three with the best friend two days ago and her jaw dropped when Katie was being all posessive of Emily in episode nine. They're relationship, but reading about a romantic relationship makes me a tad uncomfortable. Check this, though- the minute Naomi is involved I find it more intriguing/ MUCH MUCH hotter. I don't know why- it's just as wrong with Naomi there. I'm not sure how my little mind works.

Oh, and like, I'm seeing a bit of Naomi/Katie around....and I don't get it! E/K makes more sense to me. I wish I did read Naomi/Katie, because they're both sexy as fuck.

Does this mean you'll be writing them in the future? *chin hands*

Thank you for the snowflake, btw! It made me randomly hungry. Then I remembered you can't eat snow. Whoops....

THAT ICON. ♥

Katie/Emily/Naomi is awesome! I've actually wanted to write Katie/Emily/Naomi (maybe as a triangle, maybe as a threesome) for ages, but for some reason I'm finding it difficult. I'm sure I will at some point, though.

I'm kind of intrigued by the idea of Katie/Naomi but I haven't really read any and I think it would take a really good writer to convince me.

You haven't read any Katie/Naomi? II can think of at least 3 very good examples if you're interested?

BUT I WANTED TO CHECK OFF BOTH BOXES

Anyway, I feel that Katie/Emily should be largely ~unspoken in fanfiction, mostly because it can come across as just sort of crass or disgusting (and this is coming from someone who seriously enjoys (fictional) incest!).

Also, I'll probably get stoned for this, but to go off what rock-whirlpool said, I'm actually not bothered by the idea of Kat and Megan kissing (in FICTION), but to be honest, I don't think I could ever read/write it.

Which is strange, really, because I've read MCR!cest (a friend rec'd it) before and was not at all bothered by it. So, Idek. Maybe I'm lying. Maybe I would read K/M, IF it was written well.

SORRY ABOUT THE ~OPPRESSIVE RADIO BUTTONS.

I'm not really sure what you mean by that? Do you mean that fic about them shouldn't be explicit, or that fandom shouldn't talk about it, or something else? (Sorry, I'm really tired and that's making me stupid.)

I would probably read Kat/Meg (and feel kind of horrible about enjoying it) but I don't think I could write it. Mostly because I just don't ship them particularly, on account of them not having that sort of chemistry.

I meant it like, I prefer it to be something that's unspoken between the characters and maybe even to themselves. I have read some rather nice stories where Katie and Emily were actively fucking, but it was done in a way of like -- well, this is just how we roll, rather than just a huge issue or in a whole 'this is definitely not consensual sort of way.' If that makes sense. I think obviously it's canon that Katie's love sometimes is a bit more than sisterly, but I can't really see Katie EVER wanting to talk about this or even thinking that it's NOT sisterly (same as Emily, who probably balks at it sometimes, like we've seen, but generally thinks absolutely NOTHING of it). That's the sort of K/E I like -- with moments of them accidentally thinking wrong things about each other, etc, etc.

I don't even know if that makes sense. I was babbling.

I honestly don't feel horrible about enjoying Kat/Meg because it's (FICTIONAL) sibling incest. Anything beyond sibling incest squicks me because I hate the imbalance of power due to age. But I ( ... )

I kind of... I don't think it's hot because it's illegal... and there's a thing where I feel bad about it but. Yes. Hot. Okay.

And, I can't go there with the whole K/M thing. Fine if others want to, I'm not one to judge, and I'd probably end up reading it if someone wrote it but would feel pretty horrible about it. So, I'd rather not :)

I kind of like to pretend they're only related on the show, therefore not real. But it's all fiction anyway so *waves hand*.

But you know, see icon for my feelings :)

Hee, awesome icon!

See, for me that's totally part of why it's hot - not that it's illegal, per se, but that it's such a taboo.

I think I find the idea of K/M kind of squicky, and I'd only read it out of curiosity if someone wrote it (which they probably never will).

Yeah, taboo, fine! I mean, most of the hottest fics are when pairings happen because they shouldn't really - most Effy/Emily and Effy/Katie is like that (and defo with my Katie/Naomi) so same goes for Emily/Katie, really.

And, yeah, some said above about K/M not having the chemistry so, that's another good point.

It'd be all:

Kat: *drunken smooch*
Meg: *meg!face* What the hell are you doing?
Kat: Oh Christ, sorry. It was dark and you're a girl so...

Okay, yes. Let's just never go there.

Anyway, fuck it. Please be writing some K/E. It is Christmas after all ;)

I love it in an OT3 situation. Did I mention I LOVE it an ANY OT3 situation? I don't know - I think because it was partially canon - and, this might sound weird - but it's non-procreative sex. I get totally squicked when a baby could come out of the relationship, which is why I won't read Tony/Effy. *shrugs* Don't know if that makes any sense, but sexuality rarely does.

Very true! I think there's rarely any rhyme or reason as to why we all have our own kinks/squicks (which is what makes it so interesting!).

When you say ANY OT3 situation, are you saying you'd enjoy Katie/Emily/Panda? ;)
