The “this is so hot/are you turned on” conversation always baffled me a bit. Because no, I’m not. I’m writing! I am paying more attention to whether I’ve accounted for all limbs and/or props, and trying to keep typos to a forgivable ratio than I am in being turned on.
Reading sex scenes CAN turn me on, but…honestly, most TS isn’t a great sex scene, because of the tendency to have one action in one PoV and the next in the other. It’s sort of jarring to read. If I want to get turned on, I read a romance, where the scene flows a lot more naturally.

@Pyrephox props are the WORST

@Wizz I get you.

takes one sip from the drink he ordered three hundred poses ago and now it ceases to exist

@Rathenhope I recently decided that I was peeved at the word ‘sip’ being used all the time, when no one really sips drinks, and so I’ve been trying to RP without using it. It turns out it’s hard! “Eleanor drinks her drink.” Drink as a verb is very weird and kind of implies a general/over time action so it feels wrong. Gulp only works if you’re actually gulping. Mostly I’ve just been doing “Eleanor takes a drink” but it’s not a satisfying answer. Maybe I’ll give in and sip again.
as previously stated, good day.

You gotta starting quaffing that shit.
-
@farfalla I sip all the time!

@Wizz Not all characters can pull off a pull! Eleanor would never take a pull of something. Pulls have a certain level of grittiness to them, or something.
as previously stated, good day.
-
@farfalla I feel like she could take a pull if she were on the road and carrying a flask or a canteen. Pulls can be more outdoorsy?
-
Yeah I guess it does mostly refer to drinking straight from the bottle, lol.

As someone who prefers to have the option of open and honest OOC communication if needed during intimate scenes instead of before or after, I gotta say I that while I frankly can’t really grok the opposite position, I appreciate everyone who has taken the time here to say that it breaks immersion in an unacceptably uncomfortable way and I will definitely take that into consideration if and when I dip my toes back into the hobby.
I’d like to hop back in to say that I’m in the same boat. This wasn’t on my radar previously, and now it most certainly is.
Also want to echo what was said earlier in the thread: There was a pretty sensitive disagreement earlier, and we all talked through it respectfully, and are learning from it rather than assuming bad intent. I very much like this, and it gives me the warm fuzzies.

Please don’t end our romantic scene by telling me OOC you have marital problems and this is why my scene with you was so great, because now you can take it with you to the shower.
Just. No. I will -never- be comfortable with you again. Ever.
ETA: I might get awkward and laugh it off and thank you but I will -never-. Ever. Be comfortable. Again.
