like water for chocolate

[azurelunatic]

Next Wednesday is V's last night with the group in quite some time. When she returns, she won't be an Arizona resident any longer. It's just too difficult for her to try to stay here when almost all of her work (housesitting, petsitting, organizing) is on the East Coast. She's in and out, our happy technophobic poet butterfly, and lately she's been more out than in.

samurai_ko offered to bring her brownies, in honor of the occasion. Last time she did that, the theme of the group was "Smut & Chocolate." Everyone had their different take on the theme. It all worked out really well, even though by the end of the group we'd managed to range from erotica to heavy petting to romance to gay porn to sweet and pure sensuality, and no one quite hit smut. The collage of writing went really, really well with the chocolate, and it was the usual happy fun delightful mix the group always comes up with. So the general plan is to try for another.

I assume that's a good thing...

I know, I tend to get pushy when I offer to make brownies, but I did *NOT* start the whole 'smut week' thing.

I have no idea what to write for smut week...

Brownies are yay.

I still find it hilarious that the easiest mental handle I have on the theme is "smut and chocolate" even though it should probably be better expressed as "love and chocolate". I guess this means that I read smut into situations that are not at all smutty, and therefore my mind is firmly in the gutter.

Define 'smut' in 100 words or less. Write on one side of the paper only.

Between those lines I see the bare emotion that the text tried to hide. All the hidden parts of me show themselves in my eyes when I read.
