Take 2

[castalie]

This morning I signed my contract so I'm now officially hired at the Sorbonne. I handed in the two blurbs I wrote for the Romance Novels of Doom. Then I got back to work and I hired out another camel and a snake charmer.

I feel all accomplished today \o/

Completely, 100% unrelated; so one of my favourite slash topics is Top/Bottom: Who's Pitching and Who's Catching? Because I'm one of those people who have a 'strict' top/bottom policy... which is still the same, my favourite character has to be the one taking it. That's it, no complicated theories, no deep reasons. Favourite character = bottom.

On his back, on all fours, against the wall, bent over the couch, straddling one's lap, in front of a whole audience, with a dildo, I don't care, as long as he's the one getting the deep dicking. As they say *cough*
And after discussing that topic with people here and there, I know that I'm not the only one being kinda anal about it - pun intended if you want to be that way.

So. If you have a couple of seconds to waste spare and feel like it, would you mind indulging me and filling that poll?

[Poll #1203944]

And to those who wish I'd included a 'seriously, dude, don't you have better questions to ask?', my answer is 'obviously not!' \o/ Plus. That is a very important question in my world *nods solemnly*

That is so awesome about the contract!

Further to your poll. Obviously it has to be the character I love getting fucked. It's just how it is. However, I will read it the other way but it just won't be as good as it lacks that certain something that I adore. Which is the AM I love taking it, preferably hard and fast.

Ahahaha! Obviously. :D And like Terri said, it ALWAYS has to be my favourite guy taking it (and taking it, and taking it). No one else will do!

Also, yay contract! That's awesome.

I'm such a slut; I don't care as long as someone's getting it :;g:;

TS is the only fandom where I actually have a preference, which is a tendency to prefer bottom!Blair, possibly because I'm overly invested in primal!Jim...*g* But with other characters, I'm willing to go where the writer takes me.

I consider who's topping and bottoming to be just another facet in the story dynamic and it changes accordingly. Jim's my OTC and when I want him dominant and agressive I have him top and when I want him lost in his senses I make him bottom.

Although mostly I prefer blow jobs and frottage for my boys.

With me, it mostly depends on the fandom. In SPN, I very much prefer Dean bottoming (I just can't see him being top with Sam). In SGA, I really don't care who's the top in the McShep pairing (though it's nice when it's John, but it's not required for me to enjoy the fic).

Yay!

You're a strong woman, I could never suffer through reading stuff like that :-)

*laughs long and hard*

About your poll: For me it's entirely dependent on the character. Some I prefer to see bottom most the time and some I don't have any preferences for at all. Strangely enough I don't think I've ever had a favourite character that I preferred topping most of the time.

Congrats on the Sorbonne job!

And I love the way you waste our time with life-defining polls! :)

I'm a fan of ANYTHING/EVERYTHING GOES. It doesn't depend on my mood, character or fandom, but it does depend on the writer's ability to sell it to me. Under the right circumstances and with a proper explanation, I can find it totally believable and enjoyable for anyone to be in any position.

congrats on the contract :)

as for the top/bottom um, issue, i generally have a preference for who tops and who bottoms but it's not like i'll refuse to read a fic where it's the other way round. at the end of the day, i don't particularly care if the fic's good. but i generally prefer fics where there's a specified top as opposed to fics where they constantly switch.

...

this makes me wanna make a list of my OTPs and my top/bottom preference :\ how sad am i? ahahaha.

[greedy_dancer]

Whooo hoo! champagne!

As for top/bottom ... I'm versatile, as they say. As long as the author makes it believable, no pb with me!

Yay for the contract and feeling accomplished! :D

And you know, I've never given it much thought, but now that I do think about it...normally, I don't really care who tops and who bottoms (in fact, I prefer it if they switch, really), but there are exceptions where I have a very clear preference and am totally thrown if the story does it otherwise (for instance, in NCIS, the Gibbs/DiNozzo pairing, I can not for the life of me imagine DiNozzo topping).
