Okay, first things first:
I'm done tinkering with my DreamWidth account! It's up and ready and my fic-journal is as well and so, so pretty and I adore it! ♥
Alright, with that out of the way, I can continue:
Patrick Wolf has released a new single, but since I've been anti-social lately, I missed its release and saw it just now. EPIC FAIL.
But ho-boy, Vulture is fantastic. And the music video... Hell yes. Just note, it's NSFW.
From Patrick's MySpace:
"Filmed in black & white, photographic style, it shows an enraptured, semi naked Patrick writhing in a full S&M, bondage outfit. The controversial scenes are intercut with those of Patrick as the leather clad ‘Vulture’ and as an unmasked icon. Inspired by experiences Patrick gained and suffered on the American leg of the 2007 'Magic Position' tour, the video perfectly depicts these experiences, which Patrick describes as ‘getting involved in some dodgy satanic sex games and exploring the many dark sides of Los Angeles’."
Yum. And I'm not even into BDSM. But hell yes, Patrick Wolf in tight leather and make-up is not something I turn down. ♥ (Hm? Twisted? Me? I don't know what you're talking about. *g*)
Shallowness aside: I must say that I really like the lyrics; they describe his feelings in that unpleasant situation very well, I think, especially since he was also depressed at the time. And the imaginary is creepy-nice in that Patrick Wolf-way he has. But dammit, I'll have to come back and be deep and analytical later; my brain is completely on the blink after this video. I repeat: yum.

Date: 2009-04-29 09:02 am (UTC)Well. I'm guilty of a twincest ship in Digimon (this is wrong on so many levels, I know, but they were too cute together, even in canon), but they also had no idea that they even had a brother before. That's pretty much how I see it, too. If they haven't grown up together as siblings or find out that they're related later AND if the fanfiction actually has a plot apart from "Hey brother, I fancy you, let's shag!", it can be really good.
The problem here's rather that too many people write exactly this PWP NC-17 stuff, no matter if it's incest or not and don't mind adding the nephew/uncle molesting you mentioned - without bringing up the fact that it might be wrong or creepy or something. (It doesn't even have to be, but that mostly depends on the skills of the writer.)

Exactly! And I very much agree with the "a good writing can make pretty much anything alright" point as well. My current guilty pleasure is Teddy/Harry, although one-sided from Teddy's point of view, but I like it because it's so wrong and creepy. The mere thought of a fluffy T/H fic makes we want to gag. I read it because I want the emotional baggage, screwed-upness, mental torment and sheer OMGWTF-value. It's meant to be dark and twisted. Otherwise it's just... no thanks.
