her email was so sweet and so gentle and I LOVE HER SO MUCH AND I MISS HER SO MUCH
BUT OH MY GOD I DON'T KNOW IF I WANT HER TO READ MY FICS
although if there was anyone in the family i'd want to read them, it would be her
she's basically me in adult form
she'd probably be fine with the gay stuff maybe??? i honestly don't know
but if she did read it, i know she'd get invested and she'd cry at the sad parts and be happy at the happy parts
but yeah, she's a fragile person and she says she needs some time before she can get to reading it, since it would be emotionally draining, which i totally get
but i'm just so perfectly on the fence between wanting to encourage her and wanting to discourage her, purely because i don't know her stance on reading gay porn
we have friends of the family... the husband (Moses) runs a thing in wellington called Pridelands, there's billboards in a few places in town, and the wife (Claire) went ahead and read one of my fics
and she enjoyed it, and she and Moses were like "oh my god you wrote weird deer/god/human/giant gas monster porn" and i actually completely forgot that was in there
but they're the supportive types of people. Claire's a bit like my aunt, I guess
but PERSONALITY NEVER REALLY SEEMS TO CORRELATE TO WHETHER SOMEONE'S HOMOPHOBIC OR NOT
i guess she hasn't run away screaming yet, and she got past the warnings on the fic which includes some choice phrases
"; explicit sex: comeplay, rimming, exhibitionism, intercrural, frottage; top!Dean, top!Cas. Heavy on blasphemy, purposeful historical inaccuracies, and swearing. Male/male slash. And... British spelling"
i can't believe the last she saw of me was a doe-eyed little 13 year old Elmie
completely innocent and uncorrupted by the likes of you, plurk friends
AND NOW I'M A RAGING SLASH MONSTER
but yeah i need to reply to this email and i really don't think i can send anything without consulting my family over dinner tomorrow
we need a staff meeting about this
assemble the PR team, this one's a hard one
i just left plurk to think and i came back having decided: i think i should start her off with something easy and small and non-pornographic
like the story about the chickens
or maybe the kiddie one about autism (
archiveofourown.org/work... because that's freaking adorable and also probably kinda relevant to her
yep. okay i'll do that tomorrow. THANK YOU PLURK THIS WAS HELPFUL FOR MY THOUGHTS
Remember how at James birthday once we had a thingy like pass the parcel and they had a real hard time deciding between me and you on who
Was the most perverted? I won because you were late
I consider us twins in perversion although I'm maybe a little worse these days xD
