said_scarlett | On LJs New Policies, and Smutty Drabble Requests!

You know, LJs new policies are clear, pretty well written, and damn sane and sensible. And honestly, I think their new policies regarding child pornography are sensible, sane, and pretty much the same as any other website. There's still some wording that leaves some debate and could use some cleaning up, but hey, we've gotten actual word from official LJ staff that text depicting minors in sexual situations... isn't a violation of any TOS or rules.

I do wish they'd clear up some of the issues regarding art, but I can only hope they're on the right track. And admitting that yes, non-photographic images of minors engaged in sex isn't illegal, they just don't want it here. Which, hey, I may not exactly be happy with that, but it's their decision and they're being pretty up front about it.

I'm just glad they finally realized that yes, smutty fan fiction with teenagers isn't child porn.

I think this calls for another round of Porn for the Revolution!

So give me a pairing and a prompt, and I'll write you between 100 and 500 words of pure smut! Bonus points if the characters are teenagers. ;)

Hee!

Fun.

I loved him stuttering about birth control, and wearing a sweater vest to a club, and wow, that women was a predator, bringing him home.

I HAVE NEVER WRITTEN SPENCER BEFORE IN ANY CAPACITY! Much as I love him, his giant brain terrifies me. :D

Gotta love some of those Las Vegas ladies. ;)

Yeah. That's one think that would be hard about writing Criminal Minds. They're all so freaking smart!

And yes. I can't wait until I get to find out more about Spencer's youth, which I'm told is coming in season 2.

I feel comfortable writing Gideon, Hotch, JJ, Morgan and Garcia, but that's about it right now. Oh, and Prentis, who I don't think you've met. But Spencer... I adore him and love him to pieces, but it's his random-fact listing that defeats me.

WE DO! There's a big two-part Spencer episode that really goes into his childhood and teenage years.

Oh, have you by chance written any Garcia/Morgon?

My watching history with Criminal Minds is actually rather insane - I got into it at the gym, and saw the season 2 arc where they wrote out Elle, stopped watching in rage, and now am going through the episodes chronologically, although I did end up at the gym while Criminal Minds was playing recently, so I've seen the last two aired eps. (Oh! Garcia! So awesome!)

So I've met Prentis, and she's permenently, that darkhaired, less awesome chick they used to replace Elle in my head, which I know she most likely doesn't deserve, but still. I can't help it!

....oh, that bunnies me, I should write 5 ways Elle got away with murder.

The above is the only Criminal Minds anything I've written, other than a New Years drabble which crossed over HP/CM.

Ah! Yeah, I started watching it at season 2, somewhere around the middle, caught a few episodes, and then watched from the beginning. I have the first two seasons on DVD, and adore the commentary!

Ah, okay. Hehe, it's okay, since, uh, I consider her to be the more awesome chick they used to replace Elle.

Well, I'll have to actually watch some episodes where Prentis does something before I truly judge. So far, I've seen her come in and be a little awkward, and then stand around while other people did stuff.

Well, I'd probably think that no matter what Emily did, since I really wasn't a fan of Elle. She just rubbed me the wrong way mainly because while I can let slide the other little quirks of the cast that would make them unfit for what they do, I couldn't overlook hers. It was more an inability to suspend my suspension of disbelief than anything about her actual character.

Ah, that's understandable.

I know I would have liked her if her character hadn't been an FBI agent. And I like to think she's now off being some kick ass Sheriff somewhere. :D

I can hope so. And what about her quirks made you not believe her as an FBI agent?

She was extremely aggressive, quick to jump the gun, had issues with taking orders, had difficulty seeing other people's point of view in a professional setting, and had repeated instances of argumentativeness. Which, in other areas of the FBI wouldn't be a big deal, but in the BAU and with her coming in as such a new agent, wouldn't have flown at all. And while I generally like characters who are as headstrong, confident and kick ass as she is, it just didn't work in that environment. And like Morgan said to her, that department doesn't just take in whoever wants it - generally, with few exceptions, to get into the BAU, you need very, very specific training. Which she didn't have.

One of the reasons I love Criminal Minds so much is because the writers did their research. The profiling? Is the most accurate I've ever seen in a fictional setting. And they handle the politics and the hierarchy of the FBI well, too. It's not by any means perfect, but it's close enough that I can ignore most of the inconsistencies to enjoy it. The fact that Elle wasn't written up, suspended, or given a psych exam long before she was shot just spoiled the illusion for me. I'd spend too much time going '...no, you can't do that!' and 'your ass would be out of the bureau so fast for that!' than actually enjoying the episodes.

Ah.

And agreed about the profiling. What I love about Criminal Minds is that if feels exactly like reading a mystery novel, and I've always loved the profiler ones.

The profiling? Is the most accurate I've ever seen in a fictional setting. And they handle the politics and the hierarchy of the FBI well, too.

I thought I remembered hearing that one of their producers is a former FBI profiler, but the closest seems to be En Bernero (http://www.abcstudiosmedianet.com/web/showpage/showpage.aspx?program_id=CB2042&type=producers) who was a cop. They definitely have (an or some, I don't know) former-FBI consultant(s), which I'm sure most shows about the FBI have. I think Criminal Minds folks just listen to them more than some other shows.

Also, I agree with you so hardcore on Elle.

Sorry for threadjacking, I just wanted to say that.

Aw, you popped your cherry along with Spencer's! *G*

I DID! :D
