I have to ask. Can anyone think of any reason why someone would write the phrase "tumbling down the rabbit hole of love" when writing smut? And write it earnestly, thinking it was sexy?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

They think bunnies are really, really hot.

Frankly, I think this is how Anya picked up that pesky rabbit phobia.

What, bad sex with a hare? Always possible, I suppose, considering it's Anya.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I can, actually, imagine someone using it seriously, because of, I guess, the idea of love and the other side of the rabbit hole both being magical, wonderful/scary places/states. I can't imagine why anyone would think it was a good choice, but I can believe someone would.

Ah. I hadn't exactly thought of it that way. I think my mind was too busy violently rejecting the image...

And, on edit, I hasten to add that the phrase was wildly inappropriate for the character in question, but I'm now tempted to appropriate the phrase and give it a place of honor in a story, because I'm evil like that.

Oh, I like that idea a lot. It's not evil, you're just... catching it and returning it to its rightful place, far from the garbage-fic of civilization. Or something like that.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Does anyone know what happened with the Zombie fic challenge? I read shrift's ZombieJayne piece, which led me to the challenge home page, but nothing else has ever been put up there.

Was it written by The Tick?

Thanks for all the fish.

Oh, goddamn. Tep, I challenge you to write me first person Tick smut.
