Fills Post

This Fills Post is now closed to new fills. New fills should go in Fills Post #2. For those of you who are in the process of posting multi-chapter WIPs, please post subsequent chapters in the new Fills Post but include a link to the previous chapters so that those who haven't been following the story from the beginning can easily find the first part(s). 

Remember:

Fills can but don't need to be anonymous. 

Start a new comment for each fill. Don't use threaded comments for new fills. Threaded comments are for fills that take up more than one comment field, or for feedback/squee/praise.

In your fill, please mention the prompt you are responding to, and provide a link to the prompt in the body of the text. 

Please use a header with your character(s)/pairing and a title and/or keyword or short phrase. (For example: "Just you and me: Andy/Quynh, Make-up sex" or "Between a Rock and A Hard Place: Nicky/Joe/Booker, first time DP"). 

Please also comment with a link to your fill in the prompt post, under the prompt you are responding to. Your comment header should include the word "Fill" or "Filled", so that those checking out the thread can find your fic/art more easily (For example: "FILL: Re: Any/Quynh, Make-up sex").

If you end up cleaning up your fill and posting it elsewhere (AO3, your personal journal), feel free to link the posted fic/art here as well.

Um, excuse me, he just means Joe is a very convincing negotiator?

No, I couldn't even keep a straight face while typing that.

Like, Nicky is at least AWARE that there is Feelings Stuff Going On here for him (he has, uh, reasons to have developed his self-reflection skills), but he's all tied up in how all his past breakups were contentious (and look, I don't know yet how much detail I'm going to be able to work into the fic itself yet, but he's definitely over-representing his relationship experience, because he thinks it amounts to more than it does). He's like 'I am being a realist, reality is difficult sometimes' and I'm over here just 'Dude, that's logical fallacy and your subconscious self-sabotage talking, have you considered that your terrible ex was just a jerk and not an example of how every relationship fails'. (He has not, in fact, considered that.)

Compare Joe, who's just cheerfully going with the flow, like, 'hey this is neat, I like it, hope we don't have to stop', no further analysis. It has its own pitfalls but he is so much less stressed out.

Anyway, I'm glad you like it! I got attacked with nerves after I posted, so your comment made me super happy. :)

you have so little need to be nervous my friend. I know that doesn't undo nervousness but I have rarely read fic I have been so deeply deeply invested in right from the get-go, the emotions and the dialogue and of course the sex are so spot-on it's unreal.

subconscious self-sabotage is SO REAL omg he's making his own life so hard. Also I really dig inexperienced Joe just being super into it it seems very very true to character
