- go back to the main assignment and reread with fresh eyes
- send it to a friend for SPAG
- finish the porn part of the treat: if I could only decide who tops

For #3, since I was working through a similar dilemma, potential solutions (these are for M/M, so if your story is F/F, potentially pointless):

1) instead of PIA penetration, how about sticking with frottage, blowjobs, or 69?
2) topping from the bottom / riding
2) switching halfway through ... I am realizing just now that I don't think I've ever read this scenario in a fic before ... though I am not sure why ... are there practical/physical obstacles to doing that? (Aside from fanfiction's love for excessive prep for anal in m/m)

So I mulled this over... it could really work? My personal preference with many m/m ships is switching. I'm going to write two sex scenes where one is more "dominant" than the other, and flip the dynamics over for the PIA. The flipping would be plot-driven, yay!

And god, not a fan of the excessive prep in every fic. For this, my plan is more like porn polaroids: moving snapshots of what's going on.

Thank you, coalie! From my porn to yours!

Sounds great! I hope I can find your fic when the collection is released, this all sounds very RTMI.

Congrats on having your main assignment drafted already! I look forward to being where you are.

Any clue from your recip's works, bookmarks, or past letters about who they'd prefer topping?

Thank you! Hoping you'll power through your main fic soon!

Topping expectations: no clue. It's a smallish fandom with no real explicit fics to date. I'll be a porn trailblazer. I waffle because there's a nerd and an athletic guy, so the go-to is the jock, right? However, there's something about that nerd and the dynamics that make me want to have him do the other guy. I'm going to go with this feeling!
