For the never have I ever fic meme: break up (and then make up) fic?

Hmmm.  Not really.  The closest I’ve come in Pinto is Cleaving, and that’s obviously a false alarm.  And then in Prelude in C (A Twilight canon prequel covering from 1918 to the 30s) I include the time when Edward leaves Carlisle and gives up his vegetarianism, and that really feels like a breakup and makeup, though it’s not romantic.

If I were to write that for Pinto… I’d probably make it a two-parter, with the first relationship being back in the 2009-10 time frame, during the first movie and the breakup brutal, with both of them feeling lucky to retain a decent working relationship.  And over time, the pain mellows and their friendship becomes real again, because they can be happy for each other even though things didn’t work out, right?  And then the make up would be now, after they’ve both had other relationships and have completely given up on each other romantically, but something clicks, some of that old spark is still mixed in with the warmth their friendship has maintained over the years.  But this time, they’re both more comfortable in their own skins AND both aware of how absolutely rare that spark is, and they didn’t find it with other people, even though those were perfectly fine relationships.  And so they try…

Never have I ever meme: coffee shop au

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?

have you ever written bdsm?

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…
