So I started reading this amazingly OOC Elita porn fic this morning. Sadly, it held my attention through the loving detail on how she had been tortured and broken. Well, 'held my attention' in so far as I didn't outright close it, though I did wander off from it quite a lot.

Then someone uttered a question in dialogue without using a question mark, and I went "gah!" and closed it.

I am such a grammar-geek.

Oh, so that's who it reminded me of. I'd forgotten the name.

Just...blech. I can't imagine who'd get off on this sort of thing.

There is probably something interesting that can be said about why we're reacting to this differently than to a rape fantasy. I think it might have to do with how much the author seems to enjoy going into Elita's degradation.

Exactly. The focus isn't on the act, it's on how much she's suffering and surrendering--a huge emphasis on her making a slave of herself.

Some people are into that, but I personally find it much sexier when there's actual willingness on the part of the 'slave'.

*is on chapter 4*

So when did your brain break? Mine broke when Hook cockslapped Elita.

Mine broke when they threatened to make her pregnant. I left after chapter three.

And yeah, same here, or coercion of a more psychological nature (see: half the Prime/Megatron fics out there). This stuff is gratuitous torture porn.

She starts to enjoy it in chapter four. Apparently, Long Haul is good for the lady's arousal. Must be the truckishness.

It's OOC gratuitous torture porn at that. I could do a find and replace on Elita and replace it with Mildrid, and the fic wouldn't suffer in the slightest.

I'm not surprised, rather sadly. Ties in to the idea that a woman (a powerful one, no less) eventually enjoys that treatment.

Based on the way the fic is going, we've got at least three more chapters. One for each of the Constructicons that haven't gone yet.

Now, do you want to put money on Devastator being pulled out?

Not in the least, it seems to be what it's building up to.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that.

A stereotypical gangrape conducted by a combiner group? It's obvious.

I'm kind of curious as to whether Elita is going to be dead by the end of this fic or not.

[identity profile] seiberwing.livejournal.com 2007-08-18 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
...now that I didn't even think about. And I will now continue to do so.

[identity profile] beckyh2112.livejournal.com 2007-08-18 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Given that if I were writing a fic with this premise, she'd be dead before the end of chapter one by her own hand...

[identity profile] seiberwing.livejournal.com 2007-08-18 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Agreed.

...because the Decepticons are so totally going to let her go if she plays for them, as if they couldn't get that on their own.

[identity profile] beckyh2112.livejournal.com 2007-08-18 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Because the Decepticons totally wouldn't torture her friends anyway if she plays for them. I mean, dude, come on.

I swear, all she has to do is turn on that time-stop power of hers and leave it on until her lasercore extinguishes.

[identity profile] seiberwing.livejournal.com 2007-08-18 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
In all fairness, they'd have disabled that and any other weapon systems before they got down to business. But then again, she could have used the power then and things wouldn't even have gotten to the gangrape point.

...why did Elita have that power again, anyway?

[identity profile] beckyh2112.livejournal.com 2007-08-18 11:13 am (UTC)(link)
Because Alpha Trion wanted an excuse to muck around in her insides and make Optimus have to repair her.

God only knows, but I tend to lay it at Alpha Trion's feet.

Alpha Trion is a pervy old man, is what he is.

"threatened to make her pregnant"

The writer completely forgot that he was writing about robots, didn't he.

I really hope so.
