I don't know - I'd say writing a story that can be appreciated on two different levels in that way is a sign of fantastic writing. Laughing at someone enjoying their gift in an un-ironic way, when they got exactly what they asked for, seems like a dick move to me.

But I suppose that's what coal is for: letting our inner assholes out to play in an environment where no one needs to see it unless they opted-in to see the bitter, bitchy, dark side of human nature.

It's a very clunky fic, even leaving aside the Athena bits. Like, the scenes sound like they were written independently and sort of half-stitched together later; the continuity's terrible. And they just keep busting out weird lines, like the digeridoo ones.

Yeah, my thought was that it was written collaboratively for the lulz.

I thought the didgeridoo line was intentional humor. Loved the whole gonzo thing.

Aha, it was written by fresne! That makes sense - she's always playing games with gender and sexuality in her omegaverse fics.
