So, I put up my first post to
daily_deviant. For something I wrote quickly (having been obsessed with
A Confusion of Will and Desire for the last two months), I'm pretty happy with it, except for the title, which is lame.
Title: Lost and Held
Characters: Sirius, Peter
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Castration, sex, cross-dressing, manipulation
Themes/kinks chosen: Eunuchs/Castrati, Costumes
Word Count: ~5,300
Summary: An accident gives Sirius and Peter a shared secret
Author's notes: November prompts included the theme "eunuchs/castrati". It's listed in the tags as "castration", which would have been a rather different story. I have been as accurate as possible with the theme, but do not guarantee all details are correct. ;-) Thanks to Clauclauclaudia for very short-notice beta work.
Link to postThis one was odd to work on. The themes for November were clamps, costumes, eunuchs/castrati, and symphorophilia (arousal by watching or causing destruction and/or death). "Costumes" didn't really seem like
enough to me, and I hate clamps so much that it's hard for me to write about them. Symphorophilia would be
easy ... but I wasn't in the mood for something that dark. So I wrote castration because I didn't want to write darkfic. Um....
Researching physiological details was truly weird. I found support services for castrated men, historical notes on castrati, and quite a lot about self-castration, either for practical reasons or as a one-use-only
fetish. o_0
Writing Sirius/Peter was also weird. I'm generally a Sirius/Remus person.
This is going to be another one of those fics no one reads, isn't it?
