I'm always so, so hungry for stories like this in weird and pseudointellectual ways it would sound silly to explain, so just suffice to say. Um.

Thanks for the compliment!

So much fic - so much literature in general, actually - is just maddening from a sexuality perspective, you know? And you'd think that slashfic would fix at least some of those problems, but really most slash - especially most RPS - is just like "MY HETERONORMATIVITY IS PASTEDE ON YAY," like the worst possible combination of trashy patriarchy-reinforcing romance novels and rigid sexual morality that's dressed up with gay porn so we can feel like we're being sexually free. When really, all we're doing is changing the bits involved.
But then stories like this come along - stories with fully actualized, accessible queer characters who reject heternormativity and sexual rigidity both - and I breathe a soft, satisfied sigh that at least somebody gets it.
I dunno why this fic struck such a strong chord with me; I have been rereading The Ethical Slut lately, so that's probably summat to do with it, but it's just...everything I need in a romantic fic. We have healthy sexual kinship; we have people unafraid to pursue ( ... )

B) I get the feeling that a lot of slash, both from an anicdotal aspect and academic aspect really does come from an intense need for heteronormativity within a new construct. It's a hegemonic activity, no matter how radical or subversive it is. I've been reading a lot about the male and female gazes, as well as male homosocial desires expressed through the female body, and all of it's interesting in that way that seems real hard to grasp and use in your own art, no matter how pedantic it is.
C) Did I mention the fact that I fucking think this is a huge complement?
D) There is no D
E) I love you for saying this, and I really ran out of things to tell you in return. I'd rather get this kind of discourse than a million 'OMG' comments.
