Summary: This entire fic is one long conversation about sex.
Funny enough, I read the warnings on this fic: dirty talk, fingering, anal sex, with mention/discussion of dominance, submission, felching, object insertion, food porn, exhibitionism, spanking, cross-dressing, and, I don’t know, throw in like a consensual orgy but not the summary. So last night when I finally finished it (even though it was sitting on my nightstand since it was posted in mid-feb) I was like – hey, that fic was nothing but one long conversation about sex. LOL. So Draco needs to talk about sex with Harry, needs it very badly, but the only way to manage to get them talking and not hiding certain inclinations is a bit of Veritaserum. Brilliant plot device. Kudos for that. And oh man... the delicious things that these two admit while dosed up on truth serum is so filthy and hot and accidentally romantic. It's funny and light and filthy and hot like burning.
The entire discussion behind the desire to be dominated and used rang very true for me, as did the honest trepidation on Draco’s part in spilling his secrets and Harry’s part in accepting what was being asked of him. It felt real and awkward and honest.
Brilliant fic for one long conversation about sex. (not that they manage to keep their hands off each other) *cough*

You know, I actually added that in. I am so much more interested (and turned on by) reading about people talking about sex than reading about people having sex--er, thus this fanfic. But I realized that other people are not the same, including Harry and Draco. I thought that it was probably OOC for the characters I'd written to be turned on by their conversation and then not, ya know, do something about it, so I made them do it. But that part was difficult to write and the rest wasn't at all.
Thanks again--I'm really glad you liked it, and that it seemed realistic to you. Oh, and I have to say: this seems the most obvious use for Veritaserum in the world, and I'm surprised I haven't seen it in fic more often. But this is coming from someone who is relatively repressed and rather Draco-like in her desires.
