Odd request

Anyone on my flist brave enough to help me out with a meta-type experiment?

I'm working on a slash-related meta essay and I need some fic to use as an example for my essay. Is anyone out there willing to volunteer one of their fics? I'm not going to review or analyse it, not going to rip it apart or anything nasty like that. What I am going to do is take a few paragraphs and change a few of the words in order to (hopefully) make a point.

What I need is a m/m sex scene in brother-slash but not SPN. (Which is why I can't use my own fic - SPN is the only fandom I've written 'cest.) Preferably an incest pairing that's popular in whatever fandom it happens to be.

If you'd be willing to let me use your fic (with full credit), could you give me a link in the comments here? And thanks a million in advance.

I'm happy to explain further in comments if you like.

Would you like some Numb3rs Don/Charlie from me? You can try this one - http://alf-fic.livejournal.com/9158.html if so.

Andi, that's perfect! Thanks.

Like I said to [livejournal.com profile] castalie, if you want to see an advance copy so you know what use I've made of your work, let me know. That way you can veto if you hate what I've done :-)

You're welcome!

Yeah, if you wouldn't mind, I would just like to see it before you publish it. Thanks.

Don't want you to think I'm ignoring this entry so I'm commenting but truth is, I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable with offering my fics... that is, would you use my smut as proof of what doesn't work or stuff like that? Because I would never think you're wrong if you thought that, not at all, but I'm not sure I'd like to see my fic used as an example either...

I'm not brave like that, I have to say *g*

I wouldn't ever ask a friend to volunteer to be humiliated. If that were my plan, I'd use my own fic, or something pro. But don't feel pressured. If you don't like the idea, that's perfectly cool.

What I'm trying to write about is how characterisation comes across in fanfic so I need an example or two where the characters do work...then I'm going to change a couple of things to show how it wouldn't. But it'll be my version that sucks, not yours.

If you want to risk it you can see an advance copy, and if you don't like what I've done you can say no.

If you don't mind, then we could work like that, yes. So if you still need some fics for your essay, I'll help you with it.

I can offer some Don/Charlie here (http://castalie.livejournal.com/tag/my+numb3rs+fics).
