Acts:
NB my one DNW this year is angst - I'm happy with smut, crack, fluff, comedy or indeed friendship fic, but I'm not feeling robust enough for unhappiness:
1. Touching (stroking and caressing; cuddling or nuzzling; huddling for warmth; hugging; holding hands in public; touching as UST; brief brushes of contact either deliberate or accidental; thighs brushing under a table; comic physical entanglements)
2. Sleep and bedding themes (sharing a bed by necessity, such as in a hotel with only one room left; sharing a sleeping bag for warmth; sex while drowsy or sleeping; sex as a sleep aid; autonomic arousal from proximity; morning wake-up sex, falling asleep against someone's shoulder; watching someone sleep; dreams; nightmares; dream lovers, e.g., succubi; exotic or romantic beds, e.g., canopied; furs as bedding; silk sheets)
3. Writing (love letters or notes; e-mail and chat; poetry; storytelling; tracing words or figures on skin, or writing, as with an inkbrush)
4. Dancing: any number of characters, whether paired or not; doesn't have to lead to sex.
5. Kindness: not exactly h/c, but could include forms of caretaking, domestic fluff, manifestations of friendship, unexpected gentleness.
