The Monster Under The Bed x My Sleep Paralysis Demon (Those fucking squelching noises, I swear, it’s grim folks, grim).

More broadly speaking, I’m definitely tired of the “AI slop” on YouTube. It particularly bugs me when the video is supposed to be about something factual, because you don’t know whether the AI is using actual facts or just making stuff up.

Ok, I actually made some progress on The Lake House today before having to leave for work. Let’s see how far I get in a week.

And they’re rude enough to only get it on when you’re in the bed right above them. *shakes head* No class at all… As for me, depending on what you consider “wrong,” I may have never written a right pairing. 😅 My established pairings have an extreme age difference, to put it mildly (18-20 year old man and immortal women centuries to eons old), and I’m working on a brother/sister incest pairing. As for why, it’s a bit difficult to explain. When it comes to the extreme age differences between human/nonhuman characters, there are published authors who write stuff like that (see the popular A Court of Thorns and Roses series), but to get down to why it appeals to me, I think it’s a fantasy I have as a man who’s always been unsure of himself, especially with women, and there is a fantasy of a shy, nervous young man being introduced to sex by a knowledgeable older woman. Kevin/Luzurial doesn’t exactly fit that mold since they’re both inexperienced regardless of age, but the other examples do, including the incest story (older sister/younger brother). The “why” on the incest pairings is somewhat more complex; I’ll return to that when I have time.

Oh, I didn’t realize this was actually on the table as a possibility. Good to know. I’m liking the upgrades you’re making so far.

It’s not there yet, right now we are in the process of doing a site wide code upgrade. A link to the development beta will be available to members near the end of December.

I have wondered something similar in the past. Sometimes it feels good to know who likes you.

Alright, that took longer than I’d expected. Invidia also has my apologies if there are a million notifications for a review, because I kept trying to fix a problem with the review of BW’s story, which meant deleting the review and resubmitting it. I put emphasis on “trying” because ultimately, the site seemed insistent upon crunching the entire review into a single block of text, removing all the spaces between paragraphs. I am sorry for how much of a pain that is to read, as it was not my intention. 😅

Well, as you all know, I was able to make progress on The Lake House, but not to finish it by a week after Halloween. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, though, because I was struggling with how to integrate the theme of the piece into the ending, and it wasn’t until after the deadline had passed that I realized how I might be able to use it. So the extra time will (hopefully) lead to a better end product when it’s finally completed. I’ll keep working on The Lake House, and will either post it when it’s finished or throw it into the ring next Halloween season (fingers crossed that things are still stable for me next Halloween). In the meantime, I’m working on Meaningful Gifts again and have left reviews for both Invidia’s and George’s chapters of the Halloween story. I’ll read BW’s chapter on break at work tomorrow!

Agreed. Where you REALLY see AI is in some of those visual books on Youtube. Hubs likes to listen to them. Mind you, I’ve read countless sci-fi books, so when he’s listening, I can usually tell him which book and/or author they’re stealing from 🤣

Well, due to work, I haven’t gotten any work done, and we’re down to five days counting today. But if what Invidia and George said is true, and you all are ok with this even if it’s a week late or something, let’s see what I can get done quickly! *opens word processor*

Well that’s the curious point. Would a thruple qualify as a pairing? The same story I have Dawn/Buffy/Faith. A few other types of pairings too but they’re not out yet. In the Riverdale fandom, I have a pairing coming up involving Cheryl/Betty. Although they aren’t exclusive.

Oh, my. Can you still call it a pairing when there are 4+ people involved? Because if you can, than my Star Vs. the Forces of Evil pairing is Marco/Star/Jackie/Janna/Princess Arms/Kelly/Hekapoo/Brittney/Higgs/Starfan13. No, seriously, I wrote that one.

I don’t know that historically I’ve done much in the wrong pairing. However, I have a couple stories, one of which is posted here. My “wrong pairing” has been in the Buffy fandom I wrote a story that includes Dawn/Buffy/Faith/Joyce. Not necessarily a pairing but I have done gangbang stories obviously which could theoretically be a “wrong pairing”. There are a couple stories in which things got seriously dark but they aren’t really anywhere for people to read at the moment.

My take is that brilliant non-linear stories you here talk about get their fame from being good despite not being linear. A possible comparison is the Westworld tv-show season 1 that had a big reveal when you realized what you had been watching. In season 2 they wanted to repeat the trick and made things just as non-linear and in the end it was barely watchable. I have avoided the later seasons like plague. My point is that for every successful non-linear storytelling there are many more trainwreck attempts. Doing non-linear storytelling that manage to capture the reader is seriously difficult.

Simple, have a quick conversation chapter one of the sequel. “Where’s Joe?” “Six years in prison, because when they say NO PARKING, the really mean NO PARKING.” or “Got transferred to far, far, away.” or “He learned why there’s safety bars on woodchippers. Coroner estimated they recovered 60% of the remains.” And if you want the villain to be a surprise, have his whereabouts accounted/dismissed for in this conversation too.

It doesn't sound like a problem to me. In my experience, people care about the consistency of characters, more than anything else. As long as you retain the consistency of your characters, there should be few, if any, objections about the path they follow and it's outcome. Of course, people would have a problem with a path or ending, that seems out of line with what is considered reasonable for the world in which your story takes place. But that really goes without saying, usually. So, if the ending is one that you believe your characters would naturally arrive at, then that ending should be fine.

OMG that works! It pulls up both “Recommended Authors” and “Recommended Reading” lists, but that’s great because it creates a vast pool of other authors and stories I might like to check out. Thank you! I’m not sure about the alt account thing, though. Jan has a lot of time on her hands these days.

The Shortest Day is the Longest Night. The Year’s Nadir Approaches. Steady in step. The Unseelie Court’s doors open wide to Fall’s Aplenty. It is comforting to remember that though the fallow cold and sterile ice peer down from their cyros thrones. That which is loosened for but for a brief time. From the Abyssal Depths that gives up her brood. To the very foundations of the world stewed by the nameless hungering things. No night may yet last forever. Illimitable Dominion over all though the Red Death may hold. Tis but fragile stewardship it remains. Not even Jadis herself could hold Winter but never Christmas. The Ages of Ice are but brief idle sleep. Ponder then that evergreen promise of spring. Inevitable bequeathing the darkness reluctantly compelled. No matter how iron clad the toothsome and fierce the dark may grow. The things that uprose unhindered within their gruesome nadir. Shudder at light’s glow! Flee at first kiss of day! Toothless then they shrouded by death’s decay. Terrifying then must be inexorable, insistent renewal aquiet in its cradle bed. Cruel yet marching till tender spring bears again the crown. What fear then must fester abreast in that of darkness and stillness that winter doeth inspire? For what fierce dominion can they claim? That will not in time be taken by light and spring! Life my dear, Always finds a way. Always. What winter’s bark whine with agonied bite the kiss of spring long a fated. For even in Winter’s Apex does not Spring await insistent yet patient at the gates? Force fully marshalled? For what honor? What glory lay in preening bargains yet made. Be worth the enmity the coming of tomorrow’s day? What use could be worth the barbed trap the fine print surely dwells? Reject the ill gotten gain In favor of the labor of honest day. For yesteryears guest is tomorrow's brow crowned alighted! Eat. Drink. Be Merry! For Faust benighted a prince pauper. The Snowmen pall against the door allergic to the taste of hearth kindled warmth. The Sugar Plum Fairy with faerie treats a many. The game of hospitality is afoot! Enchanted! Does not Krampus scamper at yule father’s behest? Short Will Be His Prime. Great will be his Abeyance. The rules are thus in art regal procession! Tags at the top of the story Holiday theme Original Fiction 50k word limitation!

Okay, I just have to share this because relevance.

*dies laughing* I’m telling you, that would be my luck! And I’d probably get extra lashings for random abuse of Gaeilge while they’re at it.

*Bronx opens the door to find two men in suits standing outside* ”We work for the Irish government, and we hear you’ve been telling an unhealthy amount of stories about faeries...” “...The Irish government reads Adult Fanfiction?” “DON’T QUESTION OUR METHODS!”

I can’t count them all. I first started writing Tolkien’s Middle-earth collaborative roleplay and fanfiction stories on the One Ring (.com) forum back in 1999. Many fell into ruin with various website crashes and moderator deletions for being ‘too adult’. Fair enough, so I started my own forum on EZBoard in 2022, and had a lot oif saved stories posted there. Unfortunately EZBoard was sabotaged by a disgruntled employee on May 31st 2005 and wiped clean. The then mirrored the wiped site to the back-up. Fortunately, an old back-up was found after it was discivered that proper back-up hadn’t been done for nine months. There was a difference between ‘backing up’ and ‘mirroring’. Anyway, many stories were recovered with the last part lost. These days, I have an external harddrive I store them on, along with my One Drive and iCloud, and I had a lot of them saved under the RP Repository roof in a group I develope. Sadly, not being in control of it, it got deleted when I handed it off to someone else when I was asked to move on. Still, I have many from over 20 years ago, but equally as many have been lost ofer the time when various forum sites ceased to exist.

IMHO, for this site (and similarly for AO3), what most people are against is the AI slop. (Feed a prompt to Chat GPT, get a “novel” from it. TBH, quite sophisticated and impressed it’s gotten as well as it has; basically a million typewriter monkeys that have some pattern recognition grasp at what the humans are seeking.) I don’t think folks would be against you using something like grammarly, or similar spell/grammar checker with some AI backing to it. I don’t think they’d be really against you using an AI created image as a writing prompt/aid to help visualize the scene you’re about to write/describe. I don’t think that’s at a level of needing disclosure. But then we get closer to the gray line with something like an AI character profile, backstory, or it helping you finish/write a scene. Right now, if AI is forming a substantial chunk of the writing process, disclosure is likely the best policy, and let the reader decide if they want to continue or not. (Just remember, you’re still on the hook for whatever you post.)

Yes, That tends to happen sometimes. My own threatens to take more attention than it should.

And that is alright it happens! If you’re not too busy. Leave a Review <3

It’s also devaluing to be accused of using AI for writing simply because you like dashes, ellipses, or using proper grammar.

I look forward to your entry should you choose to do so

Posted! “You Were Warned” (poem)

My poem is ready. Can you provide a link to the story in the archive?

Hi guys Merlin here . I've always liked and wrote about wrong pairings. Most non con and blackmail . Hypnosis Older-younger Looser/hottie etc Not always wrong in real life but in tv shows etc when you know the characters you'd know it's not normal. Especially with tone and other love interests. Not sure if this is the right part to post about this. But in TV, movies, games etc what is your favourite wrong couples you'd love to see adult fics written about. For example I've done Hitchcock/Rosa b99 Astrid Hofferson/Mildew how to train your dragon Sarah Walker/Morgan grimes in chuck And more. So what's your ideal, wrong pairing ? And why?

Man, there used to be so many more forums for everything, now I don’t even know where I’d find one in 2025. Nope, not a clue. JayDee, annoyed by those trees blocking the view to the wood* *I’m meaning a gentle arboreal idyll, not some throbbing meatstick**. **a euphemism for the penis*** ***There’s nothing especially wrong with slightly odd footnotes, but when you get into feetnotes you risk summoning Quentin Tarantino

Given my predilection for CRPGs set in the D&D/Forgotten Realms ‘verse, probably my favorite “wrong” pairing was a series of fan fictions with Sand x Torio (Neverwinter Nights 2). That was definitely off the normal radar, but honestly, so well written that it worked. Then there was a mod written for Baldur’s Gate/Shadows of Amn, where the PC gets to romance their nemesis from the original game, their half-brother Sarevok, who spent the entire original game trying to kill the PC so he could absorb the power of their father, the dead god of murder, Bhaal. It was a major enemies to lovers twist, but again, well written enough to work. I’m not sure I’ve ever managed to write anything so spectacularly wrong and yet as perfect as those two… *sighs*

Yikes.

Ack! Run, hide, Halloween is nearly here! (Whoever’s eating the calendar, please stop, time goes by fast enough as it is.)

Those ranks… take a while. AFAICT, a post is 5, a like/reaction is 1.

Tag for teenagers is minor2 (14 and older). Tag for younger is minor1.

Hi, all. For truly “wrong” romantic/erotic parings, I tend to go towards dark humor. So, Dipper/Mabel isn’t quite a “wrong” pairing, though it raises the question that if they married in Kentucky and divorced in Arkansas, would they still be fraternal twins. I’m thinking more along the lines of Mr. Ed/receptive Wilbur, Granny/Mr. Drysdale, Uncle Joe/every female over the age of consent, etc. Cheers!

Jeez, where do I even start? As wrong pairings go, I loves me some incest. I’ve written stories about Hiro and his Aunt Cass from Big Hero 6, Dipper and Mabel from Gravity Falls, and Lincoln Loud and virtually all of his sisters from The Loud House.

For the most part, yes. There are a few places where things transition from one room to another or other things. So in theory it works as a transition point.

As far as I know there is not a limit, at least not a low or mid range one. However, if you do have transition points as you mentioned, I expect those would make good chapter breaks.

If you’re a time-traveling story… SURE! Outside of that, you’ll probably confuse the readers if it’s extensive. (Aside from short flashbacks, or a brief start near the climax along with “two years earlier...”) This confusion is the main reason I broke up my first story I posted here, I was trying to cram in backstory into chapters as well, and came to realize I basically had multiple stories instead. (Which, while I’ve yet to really write that first story, I’ve been busy on the others.)

I’m not exactly a master author myself, but that said my advice is that to get everything across you need depth. For that, you need more than just 1 chapter. Which, unfortunately for you, means more work.

I think a lot depends on the relationship status of everyone involved.

Just so I understand the question: By “tag team,” are you talking about a three-person sex session in which only two of the three are having sex at any given moment?

Ah, okay. Well, I’m glad you’re using the medium of fanfic to take the story in a direction that the show probably won’t.

As it is New Year’s Eve, I’ll get a review for one of the holiday party stories up tonight. Unfortunately, I’ll have to delay reviewing InvidiaRed’s story, because as it’s part of the Holiday Canon, I need to go back and look at last year’s Christmas story before I can read this one. It may not be required reading exactly, but it can be kind of hard to read these things out of order.
