Something Rotten pt II & Fic Rec
Jul. 5th, 2015 08:19 amFrom the Something Rotten CD liner notes (which I bought walking into the place, because hello, they had me at "Original Broadway soundtrack") "Never forget: Shakes wasn't above a dick joke." And indeed, the lusty hand of the clock is now upon the prick of noon. (Romeo and Juliet)
A short fic rec for a long fic, as I would have done that were I doing a weekly wrapup: The Gilded Cage by Beautifulfiction. Unfortunately, the moment I say "Johnlock omegaverse casefic" most of you will stop reading before you see "casefic" and that's a pity because the main drive of the story isn't about sex at all; it's the ramifications of a society where omegas are (in theory) pampered harem members and (in reality) sex slaves. What happens when an omega tries to regain agency and autonomy in a world where they are biologically tied as property to an owner and manumission isn't even a word?
Apparently this is the topic of the latest 3 Patch Podcast too (the fic, not slavery per se) but I haven't listened to it.
