Needing a bit of advice

[themostepotente]

It's rare that I friendslock.

Rarer still that I ask for advice.

But -- I've a bit of a quandry.

I signed up for merry_smutmas and was very pleased with my assignment. Two years running too -- yay, gmth!

A post on the Smutmas comm advertised a smutty het fic exchange. Het, I know -- I hope I didn't lose your attention.

So, I signed up. I've really been in a mood to try something different, so I said, hey wtf -- why not?

I received my assignment last night. It's not the assignment I have an issue with, but the person I'm supposed to write the fic for.

Both of us have defriended the other as of late. I don't hate nor dislike this person, rather I'm indifferent now. Still, I wonder if I can write this person a fic considering recent events. (There is a bit more I'm not mentioning.)

So -- am I being a big fucking baby? Yes folks, in my journal, I 'encourage' honesty.

Or -- am I justified in my thinking for feeling oh, 'uncomfortable' with my assignment?

Advice is very much appreciated.

Thanks,

--Penny

Hm, without knowing the backstory between you two, I can't really tell you if you're being a baby or not. However, considering what little I do know it sounds as if you're a bit justified in being reluctant/wary of writing it. However, seeing as how you did voluntarily sign up for it, and it was supposedly a random drawing for names, you still have to write it. *grins* So... well, just deal with it however you need to, put it behind you and then write the best damned story you can. =P
