They take up too much wordcount.

I don't usually answer these, but something about the questions moved me to answer. I would be all about solo explorations by a lonely person in space.

I think that would make an awesome story. Maybe not for this antho, though...I think it would need more wordcount. But maybe not. Hmmm.

A threesome quickie is interesting to me because it's been done less often, and requires either superfast negotiation skills or a pre-existing relationship -- or a society where threesomes are the default. And In Spaace adds a bunch of physical possibilities that we are sadly envious of down here in the gravity well. In freefall, you can ALWAYS use both hands.

There needs to be a t-shirt.

It's true! Although I can see the question of leverage becoming complex...

Garter snakes. Also, I think, pythons.

How about an over-the-phone three- or more-some? Some characters together, others joining over the phone.

Gardens are sexy. Dirt of the gardening variety is less so, and could introduce grit into all kinds of unpleasant places. Unless of course this is sex of an entirely no-hands variety. Or perhaps involves gardeners far tidier than I, perhaps with better gloves than the ones I currently own.

[oracne]

Hmmm, gardening gloves...

Also, that was not my umbrella.

[nifwitch]

Huh. Wonder whose it was? Will have to poll party guests.
