You know, I really, really do love this little comic strip to pieces. And at first, when I realized what the Jons were going to do, I thought, "Oh, that's so cute, they're curious about the other half of their Stephen" which quickly turned into, "wait, consent, legal rape, crap," etc.
And now I just want to see if any of it is going to be worth it on the Jons' behalf and how the Stephens are going to react, because this entire comic strip has been like a little mindfuck of the good variety.
At first I didn't think that c!Stephen was going to let l!Stephen have at him, but he did. I think one of the things that made that incident a few weeks ago was so well thought out; 3/4 people had a safeword, and it had all this loving preparation, tender touching of cheeks, etc. I was also pleasantly surprised that l!Stephen let the two Jons play together, after that one chapter of that one story (specificity, ftw!) where we find that l!Stephen wants to give monogamy a try after admitting something to the effect of, "if I ever caught you [Jon] kissing anyone else, I'd want to smash his big, dumb head in with Sweetness."
So, yeah, no idea where this is going to end up or how things are going to end up (I don't know if it's because I'm more familiar with him, but I do really feel for c!Stephen when this all breaks down, if only because he seems like he needs a double layer of protection, having had two safewords and all,) but I'm looking forward to beholding the cluster!fuck or whatever may occur.
You know, I have to admit that I always did like in your fics how Jon was never the perfect saint, able to heal all. Of course I wish that the possible consequences weren't so grave, but freaking score for plot and interesting dynamics, at least, maybe?
Whoo, comic strip! Good luck, characters. I can't say which two of you are going to need it the most, at this point. >>
