profound truths about the healing cock

[cimorene]

cim: It's funny how when you're reading a bunch of stories in a row, something that's really weird can seem not that weird, and then when you come back to it later you're like: "Summary: Blair goes undercover in a mental hospital as a gay teenager with nothing else wrong with him and is nearly raped and killed by an evil ex-con orderly under orders from the evil hospital director, and Jim goes berserk and turns into a caveman without the power of speech and pulverises the orderly, and then they have soul-bonding sex."
wax: And next thing you know, you're like, "Did I print that out?"
cim: See, I was looking back through my del.icio.us, and my notes on one of the pros stories were... "Prose rather elegant but suffers from Bodie having epileptic fits and a history of childhood sexual abuse."
wax: But you were like, "It's still totally readable!"
cim: Exactly. And I'm pretty sure the healing cock made an appearance.
wax: Of course.
cim: Epileptic fits, childhood sexual abuse. Can the healing cock be far behind?
wax: It never is.
cim: Yeah, what would be the point of the story? It'd be just hurt and comfort. Who wants the hurt and comfort without the sex?
wax: Then it would be... smarm.

I have to stay away from Sentinel and Due south fic because when I read them like mad almost ten year ago, I didn't know better, I thought the h/c magical healing cock stories were the height of fan fiction! Now they would probably make me squirm..

But on winter nights? h/c magical healing cock with some rape and torture thrown in.. It's like hot chocolate ;)

It's a classic genre! It's so amusing! I can usually read them, if I skim through the most tedious of the rape and healing sex bits. I still think the Healing Cock of the Scottish Highlands is like the greatest classic of them all.

Highlander! In that fandom, the authors had the time to let their characters to wallow in pity *for years* because it's not like they would have gotten any older ;)

Years? Many times decades.

I wouldn't be surprised to run across a another futurefic where Methos has been pining for centuries.

Ah, teacup-poodle!Methos characterisation, how hilarious you are!

I'm not quite sure how to respond, I just know this punchline is wrong. Very, very wrong.

That punchline comes from a big fan of smarm!

Although perhaps in this fandom it should be, "Then it would be... canon!"
