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. ;)

(In other news, five hours of being in the weak sun and I'm sun burnt. I think I need a parasol.)

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.

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.
