Fic! John/Teyla, "vanilla" as kink (adult)

I already claimed the John/Todd captive/milking story at the SGA Kink Meme. Now I will own up to this.
 
Pairing: John/Teyla
Rating: Adult
Word Count: 2,978
Summary: In a BDSM world, John meets Teyla at a secret underground vanilla club. Or: What does kink look like in a culture where what we'd call kink is standard practice?
Contains: A pinch of voyeurism, a dash of subversion, and a glut of dependent clauses. Consensual "vanilla" sex with a distinct lack of power play, pain play, collaring, bondage, erotic asphyxiation, spanking (mostly), tattoos, or sex toys.
Acknowledgements:  Whew, this was tricky to write—and not just because it's hard to portray Teyla/John as something other than dom/sub. Thanks to S. for audiencing, D. for providing the hook to hang the end on, and T. for the rubber stamp when I was concerned about unintentionally slighting kink practice. This fic is indebted to a conversation that happened last year at thingswithwings' journal.

Fic and trip and media, with a bewildering amount of pep.

There was fic again today! Actually, there was fic on Friday, but today I outed myself as the author who was trying to invert the ideas of kinky and non-kinky sex. And I maybe should stop posting fic from work, because while it might be cool to do it from my phone, (a) it's also a pain in the neck and (b) no one seems to read my fic in the middle of a weekday anyway.

In other news, I'm back from a long weekend seeing my soon-to-be-married friend in steamy Georgia, where I visited Stone Mountain with family, watched a bucketload of TV, had a piece of chocolate cake after penknife inadvertently made me want one for three days, bought a dress, played with a guinea pig in a pet store, and ate dinner with friends at a restaurant in a strip mall that got struck by lightning and lost power just as we were paying the bill.

On the TV front, I have now seen a few episodes of Eureka and Pawn Stars, as well as a second episode of Warehouse 13 -- the first being the one with Joe Flanigan -- which, as luck would have it, featured Kaylee and Simon running a diner. Yes, I know the actors' names, but I prefer to think of it as a Firefly AU.

We also watched District 9 (nice format, a satisfying number of wetly exploding bodies, a "hero" I never liked, and, oh, the irony of a movie about racism that was itself racist), Idiocracy (surprisingly funny, and terrifyingly plausible) and The Book of Eli (far more style than solid plot, and a confusing premise about Christianity saving the world after having destroyed it, but again, I enjoyed the Harry Potter AU where Dumbledore and Mme Maxime ran a kooky desert shack while Sirius Black ruled the Wild West with an iron fist; and Denzel Washington looks freaking gorgeous with a shaved head).

Also! roga is Stateside and from the sound of things I will see her for approximately 5 minutes when she gets into town, but that's okay because we will both then be attending Vividcon. I am so glad she is coming, and that kassrachel will be there, because I met both of them for the first time on my trip to Israel two years ago. Glad because I like them and glad to have them to hang out with because, silly though it may be, I am nervous about meeting certain people at the con. It's like junior high all over again, if junior high had had kink fic and fanvids and f-listers whom I want to like me in person.

Plus I found out today I'll be able to see my college friend R. that week for like two hours between the wedding and the con, which isn't much but since we live on different continents I am still happy.

Except for having to do the dishes now. That is less happy.
