Meme: Fic DVD Commentary

[lindenharp]

Ganked from yamx .

Pick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) from any fanfic I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.

Here's my fic master list on LJ and Teaspoon.

What, it wasn't good enough to gank when I posted it? ;)

I wasn't sure anyone would be interested. I posted the offer the last time this meme rolled around, and no one took me up on it. In chat tonight, Yamx talked me into it.

The entirety of "Forever", if you're cool with it.

Sure. I'll comment on anything I've written, though I reserve the right to veto a passage from a WIP.

"Forever" was terrifying to write. I am always very cautious about erotic scenes, because it's so easy to write them badly. There's a fine line between passion and purple prose. However, having brought our OT3 together as lovers, I felt I ought to write about their first time.

There's not much room for detail in a drabble, but I wanted to include all three points of view.

For Jack, a threesome is nothing new, but this one involves people that he initially didn't think he had a chance with. The Doctor's openness is a particular turn-on, because of the amount of trust that lies behind it.

Rose is very much in her body -- aware of her own desire and pleasure, and the reactions of her partners.

The Doctor is playing with Time to enhance their sexual pleasure. The Time Lords would have been horrified by such a misuse of temporal powers, but everything about this scenario would have been horrifying to the Time Lords. The Doctor does it for a couple of reasons. He wants to make the first time special for his partners, though there's also an element of control and showing off. It's not something he would do often. It's not dangerous, exactly, but it is playing tricks with Time for purely personal reasons. And it takes a lot of concentration.
