Sex pollen is a story where there are plants with pollen that make the characters have sex. This is usually slash and a lot of times 2 characters that wouldn't have sex. Sometimes it' sex in a public place.
There's a whole sub-genre of this? I'm never gonna be able to watch
The Wizard of Oz
the same ever ever ever.

If you haven't seen the previews for Torchwood 2.1 and don't want to know
anything
feel free to skip. Otherwise, I weep with joy, this is so pretty.

There's an ep of the original Star Trek series where this exact plot happens, because apparently there is nothing so cracktastically ficcy-fabulous that Roddenberry couldn't dream of it first -- and it's just so much more fun to imagine Spock getting all goofy and schmoopy about Kirk than about the random chick in the ep... and, yeah. It kinda got to be a thing.
More generally, it could be sex tea or sex phase of the moon or, really, anything that serves as an excuse for a shameless bit of "I don't know what happened -- we just suddenly couldn't control ourselves!!!1!" silliness.

I'm so proud.
Sex pollen is common in Stargate fic, too, when our intrepid heros wind up on a planet and get hit with sex pollen. Aliensmadethemdoit is also a useful plot crutch. Lots of "we can't trust you unless you boink with us/each other/all of the above" kind of rituals. Most of it's silly, a lot of it's funny as heck, some of it is damned good.
my brain. car-preg? Oh Dean, say it ain't so.
Sadly, it's so. Most of us have blocked it out.
(HONK!!)
See car-preg (and I haven't read it) seems like Moya being pregnant, so it doesn't bother me so much.
The best car-preg was the one with the Impala and John's truck though.

I love that one. That one makes me smile, for it is the very best kind of crack. The Dom Perignon of crack.

I think that was the first ever SPN fic I read. I thought it was charming.
