Red/green/yellow traffic light system in fantasy settings takes me out SO BAD lmao. Like what are we doing here? These people are not likely to know anything about kink and are going to be engaging in somewhat iffy rough sex so please just roll with it.

But I saw a post once which summed it up for me where some people use kink to substitute for the characters having a personality in smut stuff and tbh I think that's pretty accurate. If you've got a good grasp on the characters vanilla sex can be real fucking steamy, adding kink just because isn't an automatic 'this is good button' and more often than not for me it's the opposite.

I KNOW RIGHT like look my suspension of disbelief can only go so far, modern day specifically western kink conventions have like a lot of community frameworks and stuff behind them, if you're gonna dump them in wholesale without explanation (which I have unfortunately been witness to more than once) it does not make your characters look enlightened and thoughtful, it makes you look kind of awkward and like you didn't even do your kink research and are assuming SSC is the be all end all ideal when RACK is a perfectly viable alternative framework right there.

which is not to say you can never put stoplights or safewords and similar stuff in a fic; it's more like what you brought up where kink and sex and relationship dynamics should evolve from whatever the characters involve have going on.

another part of it is... to me fanfic is akin to basically playing out a scene in kink. the negotiations and checklists and stoplights are like the summary and tags and warnings, the reader has the agency to stop any time, I am PRETTY sure no fanfic author is blackmailing or forcing anyone to consume their smut or else. but I suspect a lot of the people who are like oh no, I must show kink Safely And Properly Or Else I Will Be Judged are probably like experiencing or involved with a pretty different fandom culture (the purity fetishtic badkink=thoughtcrime side), so I can perhaps vaguely see why it happens.
