*hugs you* Sorry to hear that the thesis is still giving you trouble, but yay for updating and letting us know you're alive.

Thanks for the hugs and good wishes!! (Sorry for the slow reply - I was out of town at a conference with minimal web access) The thesis wouldn't be so bad if I weren't an inveterate procrastinator with an inferiority complex. If only I could incorporate slashy goodness into it somehow, it would be a lot more fun to write! :)

Slash makes everything better.

*purrrr* (Just because I'm in love with Conrad doesn't mean I can't appreciate his brothers. ♥)

Ahhhh... nothing like a pair of hot brothers to warm one up on a cold night. I do appreciate Conrad as well, and would probably read more fic with him if he weren't always paired with Yuuri who is way too young for my tastes, I'm afraid. I just want the older folks to get together and play. So far my favorite is "Secret Mission" (on adultff.net) featuring Gwendal/Yozak with voyeur Conrad. Delicious!

(Sorry for the slow reply, btw - I was attending a conference and had little web time.)

Ah, you never have to apologize for slowness of replies with me; I may not be the queen of them, but I've definitely spent time at court. ;)

I'll have to track down that Gwendal/Yozak fic. Thank you!

Oooh - just found an LJ link for that story - it can be found here (http://tsutsuji.livejournal.com/34744.html). You know, just in case you find yourself with a few minutes that absolutely need to be filled with smut. Though with your new job, not sure if you want to spend your spare time with more boy-on-boy action. How do you not completely OD??

Thanks for the link!

How do you not completely OD??

You know, I'll admit that was something of a concern when I started. I would say written fiction is safe because it's a different medium and requires/allows imagination, so I'm not tired of reading--and in fact, I'd say I'm reading more m/m fiction these days, if anything. As for watching porn... well, our models (that's the industry name for porn actors, apparently) are not exactly living anime boys (that's the muskrit term for twinks). So I'm pretty safe, so far. ;p
