over the pure sexual physical act<br />
Makes you feel independent—you can experience on your<br />
own to find your inner sex drive.<br />
Ungendered unity<br />
No obstacles—no differences—pure act <strong>of</strong> love—no<br />
presumptions and assumptions for either one.<br />
To fight with desires and win over the natural law and<br />
follow the call <strong>of</strong> your inner self.<br />
I will leave this piece untouched; if the reader attempts to remember it, she/he<br />
may find its pure sentiments echoed in other, more <strong>com</strong>posed excerpts below.<br />
Suffice to say that it conveys the deep emotions <strong>of</strong> a person touched by<br />
something <strong>com</strong>pletely new and different; it is the visceral reaction to a new<br />
concept and world.<br />
About four months after this, and at this moment <strong>of</strong> time, Red has<br />
discovered HP fanfiction, and is reading on a daily basis. I was curious how<br />
the initial fascination with a homoerotic theme has changed. The pleasure<br />
each slash fan derives from their indulgence is very subjective and personal:<br />
some may thrive on the interactions with other fans, others may simply enjoy<br />
reading, but even in that case, what that pleasure is based on or made <strong>of</strong><br />
depends on what kinds <strong>of</strong> fics they read, be they romance, suspense, crossovers<br />
with over universes or even sexually risqué. I wanted to know what kind<br />
<strong>of</strong> pleasure (and obsession) that first fascination Red felt had transformed into.<br />
SY: What kind <strong>of</strong> satisfaction [derived from slash] is that?<br />
Red: I create worlds with it. Worlds that are my<br />
worlds….worlds in which I exist with the slash.<br />
SY: Can you elaborate?<br />
Red: I imagine what it would be, if I had been there, if this<br />
is an AU that you can be a part <strong>of</strong>…or you’re a part <strong>of</strong> it,<br />
but aren’t aware <strong>of</strong> it.<br />
