I don't believe in this kind of thing. But satisfy my curiosity, would you?

I personally am all for the flip-floppy-ness of pairings. That being said, I think Tim tops even when on bottom. ;)

:D I think we're on the same page here!

[rubynye]

Word. Ever so much word.

[unholyglee]

I was gonna say the same thing.

[marginalia]

in the last one, is it different if they are in costume or not?

[glossing]

You learn fast, grasshopper! Yes, I think it does make a difference.

[solvent90]

...is all handjobs, all the time, an acceptable answer?

[glossing]

Mmm, it could be, if we add in lots and lots of blowjobs. Messy ones, with distended cheeks and fingering...

(I want to read your Dick/Tim addendum SO BADLY, but I'm about 200 words away from writing them sexing it up in the current project and the anxiety of influence has struck me hard. *yearns*)

[solvent90]

Yay, you take my mind to wonderful Tim/Kon places.

about 200 words away from writing them sexing it up in the current project

ooh. I wouldn't derail you for the world. *anticipates* Also, ah, now that I think about it, the addendum does cheerfully play to a very straightforward top/bottom dynamic. I should probably go do a compare-contrast between my writing preferences and my reading ones.

Tim/Kon places are *awesome*.

I wouldn't derail you for the world.
I am such a liar! Not 200 words, but 1300. No wonder this fic's taking me months. *primal scream*

In my first answer re: Dick/Tim it is important that you understand that I mean “-from the bottom.”

[glossing]

BWEEEEE! I appreciate the clarification. :D

[bozaloshtsh]

See, most of my poll answers were more of who I think is often psychologically in charge of the love making, regardless of who is, ah, strictly speaking? on top.

What I Mean:
I'd see Tim as being mostly in control of his sexual relationships, even if he's the one, metaphorically or otherwise, on his knees. Except, maybe, in the case of Dick.

I don't really know. /flails Somebody else on there said they're a fan of a flip flop. I believe in letting the writer convince me of who's in control of what.

[solvent90]

I believe in letting the writer convince me of who's in control of what.

Seconded. Though I would find it hard to believe that any of these characters would be particularly "in control" in any of these relationships? I mean. I can see them coping differently, or maybe even better (e.g. I think Dick would make much more rapid sense of a sexual relationship with Bruce than Bruce ever would) but I'm not sure how that translates to being controlled/controlling during sex.

Oh, definitely. I thought it'd be interesting if there were some prevalent assumptions, but nothing like hard and fast rules or anything.
