(no subject)

*Ahem* I was wondering if anyone could recommend any fics where Justin calls Brian 'Daddy'. I looked through the memories, so besides 'Spare the Rod', 'Daddy's Little Boy' and the Fantsay series by OG Walton. Thanks in advance

Sorry if it came across that way, but it was not intended that way at all. It was a very sincere immediate reaction to the subject matter in your post (which has long been an upsetting topic to me), and one that I hardly deserved to be attacked for. This is simply a matter of personal tastes and dislikes, and I have tried to keep this a civil and reasonable discussion as there is no reason to do otherwise.

I've never heard the word "daddy" in that scene, nor seen it in a transcript or subtitle. Perhaps I'm just missing something, or it was there in a screener version then edited out. It's entirely possible.

If I do come up with the names of the stories I read that have what you're looking for in them, I'll still pass them along for you to do with as you will since I know you are interested and others may be too. The names of the fics would be information, not recommendations.

It's okay. It's one of the risks of online interactions that sometimes intentions are misinterpreted since we have no prosody or facial expressions to assist us as we do with spoken word. If you knew me at all, you'd know that even if I had actually wanted to criticize you for your request, the last thing I would have done would be to do so publicly, especially in a sarcastic way. There is nothing I hate more in fandom than wank and people attacking others for their opinions rather than engaging in civil discussion or keeping their vitriol to themselves.

Well, see, so for you it's good when authors place BDSM warnings on their fics so that you can avoid them. Whereas no one puts sexual Daddy/child scenario warnings on their fics, so I've run into them accidentally on occasion. Thus my interest in this post.

As for the last comment having made you laugh... good, I'm glad. :)
I truly believe what my icon says, laughter is very good for the soul, and I can think of no better way to round off this dialogue (or any for that matter) than with a good laugh!

I hope you find what you're looking for.

Thanks for taking a time out!

Thank you for not devolving into wank. I was getting nervous, ladies.

It's nice when we can have a conversation that's heated, but not nasty. ;-)
