bagheera_san[Poll #1042372]
This poll is brought to you by the realization that four out of five of my stories could probably end with "and then they had sex." I'm not just lazy - quite often writing porn is simply dead boring, at least when it's "and then they had sex" porn: sex scenes that have no particular tension between the characters or anything. Most often these occur at the end of a story, after all the issues of a romantic plot are resolved. It's either riding off into the sunset or porn.

Date: 2007-08-21 11:23 am (UTC)Sex scenes are usually pretty long compared to other interaction, so they often shift the weight of scenes quite a bit - that can be jarring if the actual point of the story was the plot and not the sex. But romance should have some form of resolution, you're right - even if it's just a kiss or a marriage proposal or a break-up.
