Re: Emergency Pinch Hit

Yep. Probably a case of having looked at the DNWs once at the beginning, gone, "Right, no scat or watersports or sickfic with bodily fluids, no problem, I'm not writing anything like that anyway," and then not even thinking about it again by the time came to the "look for some historical medicinal uses of plants" part of the writing. (Which is exactly the sort of reason you should double-check DNWs after having written the fic even if you were sure they didn't apply, but I wouldn't assume it was malicious.)

Yeah, I've checked in with recips a couple of times on "no bodily fluids" dnws (when the request involved, like, mpreg or sickfic or people getting stabbed) and the response was always "oh I only meant to dnw it in a sexy context of course", so I can absolutely see how this happened.

If i was beta reading that one i would have pinged “i think Auel would have used ‘urination,’ not ‘peeing’” but not the dnw fail.

Once i wrote 4k and managed to bungle both the dnw for “no het sex” and “no pregnancy/impregnation kink.” I caught it at the last minute, but it was internally *really* embarrassing.

Tbh, even when you double check the DNWs afterwards, I doubt it helps much in cases like this, unless you go over every sentence with a fine-tooth comb for every DNW. If it were me, I'd probably forget all about that sentence by the time I checked the DNW again. It's just so unremarkable to someone who doesn't have that DNW, I can really see why someone might have a brainfart no matter how hard they try.
