Fanfic Tropes Meme (#28-30)
Porn:
28. How do you feel about masturbation in fic?
29. How do you feel about non-con and dub-con?
30. Favorite porn fic?
#28: I don't mind it, though I usually prefer to see my favorite couples indulging in mutual pleasure. But it can be kind of hot, especially if one character is fantasizing about another, or if the character's partner is watching him masturbate, especially if the other character is initially unaware of it. There's a really hot scene (Chapter 7) in the Haru fic Where the White Lilies Grow by Natt where Iwaki is masturbating, and Katou watches him, unseen at first until he alerts Iwaki to his presence and eventually joins in.
#29: As I said in an earlier post, non-con is usually a turn-off for me. I'm not particularly into dub-con either, but certain fics can make me enjoy it under the right circumstances. For example, just about any Snupin fic with the premise of "Snape and Lupin are trapped together during the full moon, so they must have sex because a werewolf won't hurt its mate." In that case, it's a bit more acceptable to me because they're both victims (usually of the Death Eaters who've captured them), rather than one person forcing himself on the other, and usually they are attracted to each other, but haven't been willing to admit it or act upon it until circumstances force them together. It's an added bonus when they go on to deal with the fallout of the forced mating, or if it's at least hinted that they'll be able to make the best of things and go on to forge a real relationship together. My all-time favorite story based on this trope is For Life by McKay (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Depending on your point of view, Masks, Removed by Natt could be construed as mildly dub-con: Mochimune catches Miyasaka spying on Iwaki and Katou having sex, and manipulates/seduces Miyasaka into a sexual encounter. Miyasaka isn't precisely unwilling, but he's in a position where he can't really say no since Mochimune holds power over him as the director of the movie they're working on, and because putting up a fuss over it would alert Iwaki and Katou to their presence. However, the voyeurism and power plays and manipulation are very hot, and Miyasaka is willing enough by the end--I like the story precisely because it acknowledges Mochimune's twisted nature, whereas I wouldn't have liked it if Mochimune's actions had been presented as sweet or romantic. (Which kind of makes me grin, trying to imagine Mochimune being sweet and romantic--it boggles the mind!)
#30: Favorite porn fic: a toss-up between the above-mentioned Masks, Removed and How to Tame a Lover in Three Easy Steps, also by Natt. If you twisted my arm, I'd probably pick the latter, since I'm an Onozuka fangirl. Although I have to say, what makes those my favorites isn't just the sex, but the way the various lovers are trying to manipulate each other. Hmm, so maybe manipulation is a kink for me? I think that Mochimune and Onozuka have corrupted me! ~_^
(Btw, it looks like IJ is down right now, so I'll have to cross-post and backdate this entry there later.)
