17 Feb 2002 05:18 pmwell, of course i've read it, but i haven't written it. i like sil's [britney] a lot, especially pastel. and i think jat sapphire's star trek tos rand/chapel is great, funny and moving, like she always is: holiday stress and leadership and other serious matters discussed at the shopping mall from fashion hell (plus sex scene). <--the title is not better than the story. you should seriously read it.
but, uhm, anyway, so i've never written it before, and now i'm writing a she-ra one, and it's a little disconcerting. it doesn't feel unnatural. there's my mom's theory that "sex is sex"--and i think i'd have to go with that, no matter how intriguing it might be if this somehow proved that no one is really 100% straight (or that i wasn't), because i've never been a guy, yet i have no trouble writing m/m slash, which ought to be a lot harder. i think fiction is totally disassociated from reality, even slash fiction from the reality of sexuality. y'know. so i'm not really disturbed so much as contemplative and. stuff. but i will be glad when i finish this story--i don't like having she-ra unhappy. :(

Date: 17 Feb 2002 05:39 pm (UTC)*sigh* *swoon* just... unh. you know, she-ra frosta had never occurred to me. and i don't even think there's canon support for it. but now i'm totally into it. she-ra and frosta are in love. i will NOT make an icon to this effect.
topics to address with fiction that could take it out of angst into humor (which would be bad b/c incongruous): why do her eyes become bigger and her cheekbones more prominent and her hair longer when she becomes she-ra? i mean, adora really got gypped in the looks department.
