Guilty Pleasures

[lettered]

Because it's almost 5am, and I still can't get to sleep.

stultiloqentia recently posted a drinking game for Spuffy smut fic. It's a list of words you're sure to have seen a time or two (except for, you know, gnomon). Of course, "cold dead seed" makes an appearance.

Also, a while back, kita0610 had an outing for the old schoolers who invented things like Buffy's vanilla scent. They're those things that get used again and again. And again.

And on stultiloqentia's list? I was surprised to realize I don't care how over-used it is, I still find the primal roar/whisper "Mine!" sexy. I also get turned on by Buffy's "tiny hands" (in Angel's broad ones), even though it's in every single fic on ff.net, the unsexiest place in the whole wide world.

I've managed to convince myself I'm not the only one.

So come on. What are those "I don't care how many times I see it, I still like it"s? Okay, it might be more of a "I don't care how many other people misuse it, I still like it if it's done right", but you have one, don't you? You like seeing Spike say "Da" or "Yes, Sire," or "Xanpet". You like Buffy's mossy green eyes and Angel's chocolate ones. You like it when _____'s mouth is like satin and ______'s spunk tastes like honey. You like it when Buffy finds out Angel married her without telling her when he put the Claddagh ring on her finger. You like seeing Angel spelled "Angle". What's your cliché-kink?

It's odd, because even though I think Angel would submit to Buffy during sex, I'm not so sure he'd submit to her the rest of the time. When he was in Sunnydale, he was content to follow her and be a part of her mission; but I always think that, if they got together post-NFA, they'd be constantly butting heads over who is in charge. They're both alphas, both generals, and I don't think Angel would be content to take orders from her anymore. I don't wonder about it *that* much, because... well, because I don't ship them. *g* But I'm curious as to what you think.

I think that Angel is not Spike, and wouldn't take orders from anyone, including Buffy. Unless he

A. believed she had the best plan
B. was an integral part of said plan (or had good reason not to be)
C. was tied to the bed with a gag in his mouth

He would totally get off on her topping him in bed. Out of it? No way. Since he went to LA he found his long lost Alpha. He respects the hell out of her, but their MO's are vastly different these days.

I like C. Very, very much.

Wanna jump on AIM with me?
