something to read yya
😀 Hope you enjoy it!
I have never done this. The closest I cam was a drabble for a 00q challenge that I set in a cafe, but it’s not AU…it’s just Bond and q having a discussion (it isn’t going well) in a cafe.
Actually, other than the inherent unreality of smashing Zach’s and Chris’ faces together, I’ve never written any AU. Everything is canonish. And I honestly don’t read many (though @suedescripture‘s Blind Dating and Princesses are notable exceptions, as well as that naked yoga one on LJ).
If I were to do a coffee shop AU with Pinto, I’d probably set it at a college. Zach is the new, young, hot Drama professor who frequents a cafe near campus every night to work on grading and setting classwork for the next day. Chris is a broke English Major who reads constantly between making espressos and can be completely disinterested in taking orders if he has an essay due. But he’s very charming nonetheless. And when Zach decides to have his students perform an adaptation of Chris’ favorite book, well, a few consults wouldn’t go amiss, would they?
Hmm. You know I’ve never really done that. The closest is probably Assumptions, where Zach accidentally observes Chris having sex with a guy, and it totally turns everything he thought he knew about Chris on its ear. But Chris isn’t really in a relationship with that guy, so I’m not sure it counts.
If I did that in Pinto, I’d probably go back to early Trek days for the setting and have the cast discover that they weren’t always just running lines together. If I did it for 00q, Eve would definitely be the one to discover them, and be outraged that they’d managed to hide it for so long from her, because she’s observant, dammit! If I did it for spirk…well, poor Bones. That’s all there is to say about that. And a severely incomplete away mission log…
Many times. The Pinto ones are Jumping Into the Middle
series followed by The Weight of a Gaze, which I should just make part of that series, because it really is, I just thought I might add another in between Revelations and Weight.
Oh, and “What Spring Does…” has some light bondage. None of mine are very dark or big into humiliation…just couples playing with bondage, a bit of pain, and dominance. I’ve never written it as anonymous, club sex. Hmmm. I read that sometimes, but I like the emotions that go with it, so I think it’s easier for me to write in couples…
Send me an ask about whether I’ve written a thing [ship, trope, dynamic, category of fandom, etc.] and if I’ve written it, I’ll link you. If I haven’t written it, I’ll tell you how I would write it if I did.

Writing is zipping along through six pages in under an hour and then getting stuck on a single transition sentence for three weeks.
