Timeless, J/D Drabble, rated R

[sid]

janedavitt wrote a drabble, here, as she is wont to do, and I was inspired to respond with a companion piece.

100 words, rated R.

Timeless

It never fails to amaze Daniel, the effect he still has on Jack after so long together. One purposeful look, and Jack’s nostrils flare, his skin flushes. You’d think that some of this would get to be old hat eventually, but each time, every time, has a tinge of the first time about it.

 

Jack is hard by the time Daniel reaches for him.  His warm flesh fits perfectly into the curve of Daniel’s hand; his breath hitches just so as Daniel toys with him. 

 

His scent fills Daniel’s senses as he kneels. His mouth fills with saliva, and Jack.

Oh, yum ::happy sigh::

And you doing a companion drabble fits so well with my title :;bows to dancing partner::

[sid]

*curtsies* I'm so glad you like it. :-)

Your title reminded me of an Avengers episode: something like Quick, Quick, Slow Death?

One more turn around the room, and then I have to go start dinner. *cues orchestra*

*drools*

Hot damn! More perfect J/D smut. ;)

[sid]

Yep, there seems to be some sort of demand for it...

;-) Thanks!

[kitty-poker1.livejournal.com]

Very nice. I especially like the 'the tinge of first time about it'. Sweet and hot. :)

[sid]

I had to resort to the thesaurus to come up with "tinge", because I just could not think of the word I wanted! So I'm especially glad to hear that you liked that bit. :-)

Thank you!

[allegraconbrio.livejournal.com]

I found you via Jane's comments, and yes. This is a fantastic counter to her drabble. I loved seeing both sides of the moment. Oh, Daniel. *overheats*

[sid]

Welcome! And thank you. :-)

I'm not sure what made me do this, but I think it's turned out very well!

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

The Devil made you do it, of course.

[sid]

That's certainly a plausible explanation!
;-)

[green-grrl.livejournal.com]

Perfect companion piece. Very, very yummy!

[sid]

THAT must be the explanation. Jane's piece was the first course, and I was hungry for some more yum! I was just wondering what made me write this. ;-)

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

Very very nice hun. Both of you. Just wish it'd been... longer. But hey, with you people stuck on drabbles and the like, I'll take what I can get. :-p Difference with yours and Jane's drabbles and they always read like poetry to me, so I really don't mind so much. ;) Again, lovely job, my dear. And thanks for putting the smile on my face. :)

[sid]

Thank you! It's always great when the feedback is nearly as long as the fic!

:-D

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

Ah huh. Well, about that... write longer. :-p

[sid]

Yes! I've seen the light! I'll start my novel tonight!

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

LOLOL Silly nit. Just don't write an Mpreg, I beg you. :-p

[sid]

Damnit! There goes the idea for my novel!

*tears up outline*

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

I know a lot of people get a kick out of that kind of plot but me? *shudders*

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

PTHTHTHTHTHTHTTHT!!!! :-)

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

*snort*

What the hell. I'll go on about this. *gg*

I find the notion of giving men the act that Nature assigned to women, bizarre. It's punishing, it seems to me, and therefore boring and pointless. Who the hell can learn anything?

I've never once found an Mpreg interesting. Not in fiction, not in film. Create an alien species that has their males getting pregnant is essentially making their males female. Females get pregnant, males impregnate. Crossing them up is... twisted. I have no idea *why* the idea bugs the shit out of me, but it does. It's perverting nature.

OTOH, doing this in "real life" doesn't bother me quite so much. Our science is currently trying to make it so that transgendered gay men can have transplanted uteruses. In this way, adoption and/or surrogates will no longer be required for them to have children. While I can appreciate the desire to create their own family without interference, I worry that nature will fuck it up for them. As I said, females are the ones who get pregnant. And btw, anyone who brings up male seahorses and the like, should remember that those males *share* the pregnancy. They are not responsible for *conceiving.*

But this is just my opinion. Doesn't mean I'd restrict someone's right to write such a piece. --- Now why do I keep saying this in a lot of my posts? Because there have been completely *stupid* responses to my opinion. As if my saying that I don't like something equates to my saying it shouldn't exist or be possible. And you know, WTF? So to keep the morons at bay, I have to add that stupid-assed disclaimer.

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

It's punishing, it seems to me, and therefore boring and pointless.

While I appreciate your position (we've had *that* discussion ;-), I find your use of the word 'punishing' in this instance fascinating. While I *have* seen some where it was pretty obvious the author's intent was to 'get back at men' for her pregnancy, those were generally pretty dismal stories over all. We won't even get into the crappy characterizations that crop up. Personally, I just see it as one more SFnal idea to be explored and one that *is* becoming especially timely (the October 21 issue of The New Scientist had some interesting articles on the topic). Like near-Earth space travel, it may not even *be* a SFnal topic for much longer. :-)

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

True.

'Punishing' is for exactly the reason you mentioned: the intention to get back at men, but in my experience, it isn't for the author's pregnancy but men's insensitivity and callousness toward pregnancy--that perhaps if they knew what it meant to be pregnant, they'd be enlightened. Problem is, women write these stories so who exactly is learning what?

Perhaps some of the Mpreg stories out there are better written than most of the drivel that can be found, but I still don't see the *point.* And I mention it because, as I've said elsewhere, something will continue to bug me until I understand it.

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I don't care much for that sort of thing, either. As for the point, once you get past the type we've already mentioned, it's just one more trope, like body swapping, or mind transfer, or anything else that forces a character to confront becoming the Other.

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

That may be my problem then. To be thrust into someone else's experiences or body isn't too bad, but I don't care for mind-swapping when it involves lovers--and that is the primary plot in those stories. All of them relate it as kink. But to suddenly think it's kinky to have sex with "yourself" is, well... gross. It's like an out-of-body masturbation and that's just bloody bizarre. I want to get off on someone else, not myself.

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

Hey, what's wrong with having sex with someone you love? :-):-)

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

*facepalm* Smart ass. *g*

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

We aims t'please. ;-)

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

Well you succeeded. *wipes screen* ;)

[tigerlilly2063.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, that fits perfectly to janedavitt's piece.

Like it very much. :)

[sid]

Thank you! The two drabbles do make a cute couple - but not quite as cute as Jack and Daniel, of course!

[msbeata.livejournal.com]

Oh yay! I love seeing things from different points of view.

Well done.

[sid]

Thanks very much! *beams from ear to ear*

[ailis-70.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. Nice J/D smut to warm up a chilly afternoon. There's been so much of the SGA variety (which is nice mind you) going around, that it's so very nice to come back to the ultimate OTP. This piece fits it's title "Timeless."

[sid]

I've even been contributing to the SGA smut recently, but SG-1 is my home. And J/D are, indeed, the ultimate!

Glad you enjoyed it!

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

I've been meaning to talk to you about that.

Or rather my evil twin has. You don't want to cross her, btw. She has nothing to loose. :-)

[sid]

It's only a phase I'm going through. ;-)

To write SGA I have to stop and think of something to write. To write J/D I just have to listen to my muse. Guess that says pretty clearly where my heart is. :-)

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

As well it should be! :-)

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

oooh, very nice.

[sid]

Thanks very much! :-)

[whimsicalwhims.livejournal.com]

Mmm... Yum.

but each time, every time, has a tinge of the first time about it

Thank you!
