(Anonymous) 2020-03-21 02:58 am (UTC)(link)TBH, I really, really dislike kink negotiation in fiction. I just find it a huge buzzkill? Almost all of the kinky fic I've ever found hot has been fic where the characters just go ahead and do the kink, on the fly. In real life, sure, I can see how that's inadvisable. But in fiction, I think that can be (and often IS) entirely consensual. It all depends on how you write it. If you're clear that not only do both characters like it but they're also picking up the pretty obvious signals that their partner likes it too, then it won't read a noncon. Often it won't even read as dubcon. Like, if character A holds character B's wrists above his head, and character B moans, arches his back, and his dick throbs against character A's pelvis, so character A goes ahead and gets a little Dommy - I do not read that as dubcon (unless some additional factor is introduced that makes it dub/noncon).

To me, it's fic. Sure, it can be some big 'teaching moment' or whatever, but that's not what I'm reading kinky fic for. I'm reading it for kink! I don't want big drawn-out conversations about 'levels' and safe words and blah blah blah. It *is* a buzzkill.
Especially when the people in question have been intimate for a long time, know each other, are partners and etc. - it's just not necessary.
Yay for people who love all that, but don't harsh my bliss by overshadowing the kink with an instruction manual and a big, preachy speech about 'safe sane consensual' (especially when the characters involved already know about it).
