Nearly Almost Victory!!

[roxy]

I'm feeling pretty good now about my SVBB. I think I finally got Lex and Clark. A whole section of the story just fell into my lap (as it were). I saw where I was going wrong with Lex and that helped loads. I guess I thought a story like this should be terribly angsty and it's just--not. Clark keeps coming out as a fairly together guy, a little sarcastic, a little bitter but not broken, at least, not in a typical angstfest kind of way. Or should I say roxy kind of way? Hah! Of course, the night is still young. And he does seem to be a bit into being dominated--except when he doesn't and thank you million, million times, tasabien, for setting me on the right track with your words of wisdom--something along the line of "Clark holds Lex down and fucks the hell out of him." I'm paraphrasing. *koff*

I'm still sure that I'm not going to make the deadline. They've remembered who I am at work again--oy. I'm glad for the hours because my hotpants and leopard print boots don't fit anymore and I don't think the good old USA is ready for granny porn...anyhoo, my point here was that work interferes with the writing.

HAH! ENORMOUS liar!!! SpNBB interferes--with everything! Though work is exhausting because now I'm trapped at the fitting room as per new/old policy and I have to be nice to people and pretend the stupid ones aren't stupid. I'm actually pretty good at it, I surprise myself. At any rate at the end of a long day of smiling at the painful idiocy, my face hurts and my brain hurts from trying to be nice. Or something close to it. On the up side, all that acting seems to have worked my block loose. I feel pretty creative, and I'm liking the people I'm writing about instead of barely tolerating them...*gasp*! It's almost like real life--the parallels are amazing. Except I don't day dream about having sex with any of the folks coming through the fitting room. Really, it's New Jersey; you don't get many random hot people wandering through.

Heh! Congrats on getting past your block, Roxy! That plot of yours sounds VERY interesting. ;)

Thank you!! I've got my fingers crossed other folks will find it interesting too--so far, it's the talkiest hooker fic ever! *GGG*

Yay for you! I'm glad the characters are finally talking to you. I hate it when they stay stubbornly silent. So frustrating. I find that sometimes I'm more stubborn, and sometimes they are. I'm glad you won this time.

Also SpNBB is extremely distracting. One was posted today that had a 300K+ word count. Oy!

GIRL!! SpNBB is the DEVIL!!!

BEST news I've had all week. Seriously!

xxooo!

I'm really excited! I love Clark in this story--he's different, but I hope he's still Clark to folks. I think I was heavily influenced by the last two seasons Clark. :)

"...something along the line of "Clark holds Lex down and fucks the hell out of him." I'm paraphrasing...."

Do you mind my asking if this indicates that Clark rapes Lex? I read a story like that by accident a few months ago -- the author did NOT warn for rape until I complained -- and I'm not about to repeat that experience.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

I hadn't thought of it as rape. The way I planned it, Lex is very domineeering in the story, Clark is playing the role of a submissive for him. In the end, Clark looses his temper and flips the script on Lex, takes control. But Lex isn't frightened, he's surprised. However, it's Lex, so he bitches about it even while enjoying it. It's not a matter of ripping power away from Lex, or attacking him, it's Clark trying to get Lex to admit that he cares for Clark.

I learned my lesson about warnings a while ago, so I try to be as careful and informative as I can. I still mess up from time to time, so I certainly don't mind having misteps pointed out to me!

Thanks for the information.

I won't be reading the story, however. Clark has super powers, and even if Lex wanted to stop him, he couldn't. This was, in a way, the scenario in that story that turned me off SV fanfiction. Clark was angry because Lex had been unfaithful, and forced Lex. He hit him and screamed abuse at him -- and then, of course, Lex really wanted it, though he never actually said so, he simply doesn't complain, because of course it's Clark so it's okay. I nearly threw up. I thought maybe this was the time to get back into reading fan fiction, but I guess not.

Anyway, thanks for letting me know.

Oh, that sounds unpleasant. No, it's *definitely* not like that in my story. In my story, Clark's powers are reduced, purposely by him, though a bit of greenK. Clark's for rent in this story, and acts to the script provideded by him by the client. I hope you might change your mind and take a chance on this--I promise, no Lexs are abused in this fic. :)

[greenlady2.livejournal.com]

Okay, I might think about it then, since this sounds like a reasonably different scenario.

Thanks for answering my concerns and I hope I didn't come across as judgemental. That other scenario really was unpleasant, and I was totally unprepared for the turn the story took. I just haven`t been able to trust fan fiction since then. So I really appreciate your patience and understanding. Thanks again. :-)))
