It's 3 AM, and I can't sleep, despite three cups of valerian tea. This post won't let me. So here I am.

First off, while I talk about HP fanfiction, please remember I have not read the seventh book, so absolutely no references to it whatsoever in comments.

That out of the way! The topic on everyone's mind and LJs right now is yet again, fic/art and censorship.

As some people know, I frequent some pretty damn dark corners of the internet. And I mean dark. Why? A few different reasons. One, I have a deep interest in serial killers and their mentality. I enjoy reading stories that delve into that. This means I often do read things that involve graphic descriptions of torture, rape and murders. Both online and in published works of fiction. This includes but is not limited to situations involving snuff and underage characters. Two, I'll admit it, I've got trainwreck syndrome. Some people read Mary Sue fic for entertainment, some read vastly OOC fic, I read horrifically disturbing and bizarre smut. But really, once you've read vore/un-birthing/ovipositioning fic involving a triple breasted giant lizard woman and a killer whale, nothing phases you anymore....

You know, it's sad that people expect sex in every pairing fic they read. Seriously. If you click on a PG-rated story on FF.net, you shouldn't be expecting sex. At all. And yet... someone went and read all my Trinity Blood Abel/Esther fic and reviewed each one, bitching about how I don't go on to write the 'good stuff' and just fade to black. And they wanted the 'good stuff', damnit!

And here's silly me, thinking the 'good stuff' was IC characters, and interesting premise, good spelling and grammar....

If you (general you) want sex in fics, don't go to ff.net and read stories that are labeled safe for middle schoolers!
