Touched and touching
In saying that, Spirk still holds the record for best fanfics imo. With other / I've read they tend to be focused আরো on tension and the idea that what they're doing is wrong and shameful, but no matter how many Spirk fics I read they're always sexy, funny and completely sweet and romantic, of course they sometimes have some tension going on like any interesting story but it doesn't feel like it's the male intimacy that's "wrong and shameful", it's either that they're having an affair অথবা that they're both officers on the same starship, Issues along those lines.
Just the other night I was পাঠ করা a fanfic. It was funny and sexy but it ended on a sweet note with the প্রেমী embraced in each other's arms. Whereas I've read fanfics of Elle/Claire from নায়ক অথবা Faith/Buffy from BTVS and it's all about hiding the relationship out of shame because if people knew then there wouldn't be any reason for the relationship to carry on.
Don't get me wrong I've read these fanfics and enjoyed them but Spirk isn't about the pain অথবা the shame making it worth the risk (most of the time). To me as well as being sensual, Spirk fanfics tend to be আরো about romance and two people being in প্রণয় and accepted দ্বারা everyone around them. It doesn't matter that they're both male, there's no shame in it.
There are so many different Spirk fanfics out there about the everyday things couples do like getting gifts for each other, complaining about work and going প্রথমপাতা to find a familiar and loving face to welcome them.
Spirk sets the highest standard in fanfiction because those who write these stories incorporate romance, love, and even comedy into their stories as well as sexual inuendo, but it doesn't feel like the sex is the main part of the story, it's the relationship between Kirk and Spock, and sex is just the icing on শীর্ষ of the cake.
Anyway, enough rambling. My point is simply that Spirk fanfiction rules! I think that all my points above may contradict each other, but oh well.
Spirk isn't based purely on sex and how it being wrong makes it আরো fun, it's about a relationship between two soulmates - T'hyla - and the প্রণয় expressed between the two of them and the acceptance that they recieve দ্বারা their loved ones too!
a caring love
