I really enjoy your writing, and that of Ranger. When I first read your "westwing" fics a year ago, I was dizzy with a sense of revelation, because you wrote so well, made it so believable, and pushed a kink button I hardly dared admit I had.
I've read such bad fic in my quest to fulfill this kink of mine, and I turn with relief to your writings, and those of Ranger, which are so good at creating character and making it all seem so believable. That is the thrill...the deep relationship and the domination and submission, mixed together. All those silly punishment fics and web sites that are so shallow don't challenge me the way your fic does...challenge me to feel so conflicted about my response of sympathy and thrill toward these characters.
I am just reading this fic quickly due to RL work overload, but I find this chapter especially compelling. It's definitely a guilty pleasure, partly because I know that Rodney gets both punishments mostly to please us, the readers, the viewers, the voyeurs. You draw Rodney S so believably that I feel guilty for what we are putting him through in the name of our pleasure. As a reader I am like Rodney McKay in this chapter...fascinated, guilty, turned on.
