p.s. I might write a lemon side story for L & L.
I don't know how well I will do. Read a lot of romance novels... never
written one. If you want to have me write one, lemme know. Will
definately
be more Kun-chan style... not Martial Arts Lovemaking style. Hey, I am
pretty conservative actually :) If it is worth it... well... it
depends on
your response.
Girl style romance/lemon is better written by girls than boy style
lemons
anyway... ^_^
Yeah! Lemons written by girls tend to have STORIES!!!
Amazing, that... I guess girls want romance as well (hence all those
romance novels) where guys just want to... er... get down to it (hence
all those play boy magazines). *shrug*
I guess that no one got the point of Marital Arts, which is supposed to be a
satire on what-if stories and happy ending stories and lemon without plot
stories. The sex scenes are just incidental (maybe 1/3-1/2 incidental). ;)
For me, the % of sex scenes has nothing to do with whether or not I like the
lemon. There are just too blasted many of them where you get to the 'main
event' somewhere in the middle of the first page, and it continues until
about 1 paragraph before the end.
I happened to like "Martial Arts Lovemaking" becaue Ranma/Akane seem a bit
uncertain about whether they want to/should do this in the beginning, and
their relationship progresses from there. And it doesn't hurt that there is
a story to this story that gives the reason for all these sex scenes going
on <g>
Yeah, but the next one says that their relationship's shallow. Hmmph. I
liked it better that they were actually in love.
*Sigh*. Oh, well. The problem is that Marital Arts is the only
regular lemon series at the moment. Caroline's aren't released
quickly enough, and the Punch series is slow, too. I find that I
get into a series more if it's out frequently. Therefore, I regard
Marital Arts as sort of "Our current champion". Of course, that hasn't
had an ep. for a month either.
Still, I think I'll lose my liking if the aforementioned plot
details go through. *sigh*. I'm depressed now.
