It's actually my favorite fanfic I've ever read and I have very, VERY mixed feelings about that because of its sexual content and suggestive wording. I hate that I love it, but I just can't help it. For me, I'd rather avoid reading stories like that all together in the future because I'm afraid I <b>*will*<\/b> end up liking them and further distorting my view of the show and why I originally got into it to begin with...That bothers me deeply. It's not that I slight you or any other author for doing what it is you intend to do, as it's a valid form of expression and sometimes really, really awesome...It's that I don't want my view of things to be altered as that's very important to my own creativity and artistic expression. It's hard to word why."}
