Back....a while ago, I bribed imp to write me a toby/tybalt dubcon story if I wrote her a eric/cam accidentally dating story. She's 35K words in so far, while I have the following. I'd say I won, except at some point I talked myself into write a Toby/Tybalt noncon dating story.

Speaking of fic: both the long stories I have been working on are now complete first drafts and in beta. (For reference, that's Duncs/Seabs amnesia and Cam/Eric/Jeff arranged marriage.) They will be posted .... whenever they get out of beta. I'm thinking amnesia in a couple of weeks, and arranged marriage maybe some weeks after that.

Okay, and before I get to the next part of the post, let me tell you a story. If you haven't read the Toby Daye books, coffee figures prominently in the books, Toby rarely being seen without a cup of coffee. Imp and I were talking about, um, time-traveled Tybalt (Tybalt being born in the 1600s), and I was trying to work out whether he knew about coffee. This ended in me declaiming about the London coffeehouse culture of the late 17th century over im to imp, who basically just laughed at me.

I tell you this to give you context, when I say that this is possibly the most embarrassing overthinking I have committed this month.

And, uh, maybe my rant about 'fairness' will have to wait til next time.
