Anyone else, I have no problem launching pretty much straight into "and so, there they are, in bed together."

Why do John and Cam require 3000 words of build-up before they'll get it on?

Them and sex, I swear - nothing but trouble.

I do as well, which is probably why it takes me so long to get to the sex, but this is prompt fic with a specific sex related prompt - inability to get to the sex is a problem :)

Well, yes, if you're trying to write a sex-specific prompt, then that is definitely a problem.

(I don't think I'd care for writing sex-on-command--which is one of the reasons I don't sign up for kink_bingo. I find it hard to write interesting sex scenes. Unless I go in with inspiration, and then the interesting stuff usually isn't the sex--it's the emotional subtext.)

It's definitely an interesting prompt - I kind of love it, actually - but I did get totally side-tracked by the build-up. Getting there though.

Well at least you know where you're going, then. That's definitely helpful. As long as the build-up adds to the story, I can't see anyone complaining. ;)

Of course, I can see how 3000 extra words would throw off your schedule a little.

Story of my life - WHN sequel's gone back on hold because it's taking way longer than I expected it to. Maybe Christmas :)

Christmas? With like six holiday ficathons coming up, and probably the John/Cam Thing-a-Thon as well? Hahahahaha!

Hey, did you sign up for

xover_exchange again?

Don't remind me! I'm so trying to be good about what I sign up for, so I can do sga-santa this year, but it's not working.

Yeah, I signed up for xover exchange again (because I am weak!) How about you?

Yes, I did. I wasn't going to, but then I kept working on my sign-up form in odd moments--just for fun, y'know--and then about twenty minutes before the deadline, I sent it in. Moment of weakness, but I do so love a good crossover.

I'm going to be good at Christmas though! And I'm not going to let the fact that I found out I'll only have one set of exams to mark rather than the two I was expecting fool me into thinking that I'll have time. Because I won't. I have baking to do, after all. And shopping. And I will refrain from signing-up for anything.

Well, maybe just one. if I can choose between yuletide and sga_santa. Or sg1_jubilee, if that happens to run again.

That's always my problem - I can never choose. Well, that and I have no willpower, so even after I make the choice, I don't stick to it :(
