distortions in relationships in LOTR

[Encaitare]

I can see where you're going with this, by the way. I know that slash is usually presented as AU. Huzzah.

Well, I wasn't trying to attack you with your own words or anything, just curious.

To appease the liberal masses, I will admit I have read some slash. A couple were quite well written, and I respect that. The ones that are more emotionally based rather than erotically based are a bit better, in my opinion.

Well done, there, Sapphire! I can definitely respect that you gave it a shot and then formed your opinion based on that. Seems a bit fairer to me. And yeah, the erotic stuff... yech. Sometimes really, really unnecessary. I personally prefer just to explore the emotional bit.

Seems we've mostly reached an understanding, and sorry if I did get "PMSy" at ya, Sapphire. I guess I'm just a wholehearted defender of the slash.
