You know the thing...

[bladespark]

...where you say "Oh, I know nobody will like this" but there's a little secret part of you that goes "but what if everybody does?"

Like, when it comes to weird-ass kinks, well, 50 Shades became a massive phenomenon. So why *not* my demon-binding kinkfic? Why not?

I mean, I know that no, it's not likely.

And yet every now and then something surprises me. Like the trans-adjacent Aziraphale-with-a-vag feels fic was one I was sure would go nowhere, but while it's not my top, it got a *ton* of positive attention.

So why not the demon binding kink fic? It's sweet. It's not super out there, kink-wise, it's mostly close to vanilla, just a little light pain play so far. Why not? I tell myself it won't do well, but the secret heart of me desperately hoped it will.

It didn't.

Sigh.

My wife was writing writing this long SGA John/Rodney AU set in an Eastern European country, Rodney gets kidnapped and was the one who spoke Russian, John has to get a cab to follow the bad guys and is trying to speak horrible Russian. I convinced my wife to put in some comic relief and after John does his horrible Russian, the cabbie turns out to be from Brooklyn, his wife was from the country and they retired there because of the lower cost of living.

The comments were very amusing, with people convinced that the cabbie came from some other fic/series because of the verisimilitude. You never know what strikes a chord in people.
