Hi. If you're here it must be because you want to read my very long, very kinky indulgence fic Coming of Age.

I'm not sure what to say here. My instinct is to try and put people off, which is silly. You're all adults and can make up your own minds whether a story like this is for you. Here follows a brief description of how I came to write the story in this rather bizarre way and some of what you can expect in it.

Firstly, I've been writing it on and off since February and it's very long indeed - 190,000 words exactly. I know this because all the sections are exactly 1000 words long. Quite why I decided to stick so religiously to this format, I can't now remember but I have done so all the way through, except for the epilogue, which is 2000 words. The story is long and rambly and though there is plot, things grind to a halt quite frequently for various kinky goings on and sometimes the way the story is set up - two parts from one character's POV followed by one part from another character's POV - slows things down a lot. Just warning you in case you're the impatient type.

Other details, as follows:

Setting: An AU, glass-darkly version of AtS season 5, though the plot also diverges in various places from points earlier in the series. Hopefully, these will be self-explanatory.
Pairings: Spike/Angel, Spike/Wesley
Rating: Very NC17 and containing the following bits of nastiness - non-con and semi-non-con, sexual torture, medical kink etc etc. This started off as a slave fic so it also contains the sorts of elements you'd expect to find in those, such as humiliation, objectification etc. There're also some gruesome bits and - because I know some people are very sensitive about these things - there is one chapter where a dog meets an unpleasant end.

Okay, having done my utmost best to put you off, if anyone still wants to read the fic, please leave a comment below and I'll friend you. All fic posts will be flocked.

Er well, that doesn't necessarily follow. However, I hope you enjoy it. If not, please defriend again when you leave. Thanks.

Hello! I have heard some interesting things about this fic by [livejournal.com profile] sueworld2003 and I thought I would ask to be friended so I could check it out for myself.

Hi. I've seen you posting on Sue's LJ and have friended you back. I hope you enjoy.

Oops! Sorry. Signed in on the wrong LJ.

Heh. So I've wanted to ask to be friended for a while, but kept putting it off because slave fics are really hit or miss for me. I have a kink for them, but a lot of times they're too much for me. I'm not sure going in if I'll be able to read the whole thing, but I'd like to give it a try. I'll let you know if I can't handle it. :)

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-02-08 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, will friend you back. If it helps, I think of it as more an anti-slave fic than anything.

[identity profile] toobusy2write.livejournal.com 2009-02-10 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, that does help. Cool. I keep hearing great things about this fic. *g*

Not to pester you, but in case you tried to friend me already, it didn't work. I can't see the entries. :)

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-02-10 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Oops! Sorry. I must have thought I'd done it, but not done it. Anyway, you're friended now.

Hi! I'd love to read your fic - I've heard fabulous things about it!

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-02-15 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Hi. I'll happily friend you, but first, I'd be grateful if you could tell me where you heard about me and this fic.

[identity profile] kassy-syd.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 05:21 am (UTC)(link)

[identity profile] arussel355.livejournal.com 2009-03-15 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
Would like to read, friend me?

[identity profile] badpuritan.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, I'd love to read your fic, sounds like my thing! If you would friend me that'd be awesome. Thanks! :)

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 09:23 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, I'll friend you, though would say what I say to everyone, which is that if you find the stories are not to your taste after all, I'd be grateful if you would defriend again when you leave. Thanks.

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 09:26 am (UTC)(link)
I'm a bit wary of friending 'ghost' LJs to be honest with you. Would you at least tell me where you heard about me.

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 09:31 am (UTC)(link)
Hi. I've friended you. Hope you enjoy the story, though if not, I'd be grateful if you would defriend again when you leave. Thanks.

Sure, I got this link from a list of Spike fics that was posted by sueworld2003. I created this account awhile ago, (I think to read a fic that needed a livejournal account to access) . I never really got around to updating.

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, thanks.

I'll friend you. If you don't care for the stories, though, I'd be grateful if you would defriend again when you leave. Thanks.

[identity profile] badpuritan.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you for the add! And no problem, if that happens to be the case I will defriend you like you asked.

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks.

I would love to read this story - would you please friend me?

[identity profile] glassdarklyuk.livejournal.com 2009-03-20 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. I'd be interested to know where you heard of me, though, seeing as you don't see to be in the Buffyverse fandom.

[identity profile] fiordeligi.livejournal.com 2009-03-20 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I've mostly been a one-fandom woman for ages now, but suddenly, inexplicably, I've felt this need for Angel/Spike fic. I happened on the darker-spike community and have been trying to read as much as I can on that com. Your fics have been recommended there several times, and here I am! Thank you very much for friending me - I'm looking forward to reading your work.
