Speaking of tentacle porn, the Ursula/Ariel fic DOESN'T HAVE ANY. Twice as many tentacles! No tentacle porn!

Wait, what? That was on my to-read-list for the rec of tentacles but now you tell me there's no tentacle porn, just tentacles that don't serve their rightful purpose? I feel cheated.

cyrt

Right?! I was utterly bewildered. (Granted I presumably would have been less bewildered if I'd looked at the rating to begin with.) The tentacles are just there as a reason for Ariel to hang around Ursula long enough to be ~corrupted! The closest we get is a couple of casual and pretty chaste kisses!

Meh. I mean it still sounds sweet and it's femslash, so I might still give it a try but I'm definitely less excited about it right now.

NC There's straight-up a scene where they brush tentacles and Ariel shivers because hers are so ~sensitive, and yet! No porn! I guess I should've checked the rating, but every "Look! Tentacles!" rec I saw really made me think it was gonna be porn.

It's rated Mature, and I have no idea why. It's Teen at the MOST.

This happened in my fandom too. No sex, no violence, no other adult themes. It was probably vague allusions to a (canon) incest pairing, but they didn't even touch or talk about it in the story! And I thought I was an over-cautious tagger.
