hc_bingo, once again!

[arduinna]

If I sign up for hc_bingo enough, eventually I will actually manage to pull off a bingo, right?

This year's card:

therapy	whipping / flogging	broken bones	electrocution	cursed
plane crash	poltergeist	brainwashing	runaways	Stockholm syndrome
bruises	confession in desperate situation	WILD CARD	head trauma	unconsciousness
de-age	burns	poisoning	unrequited pining	interrogation
nervous breakdown	disappearing	taking care of somebody	telepathic trauma	grief

Most of this is stuff I haven't written, but hey, it's good to expand your comfort zones. And there are only a couple I'm eyeing particularly askance. Pretty good card, overall!

Yeah, if it's canonical flogging, I can usually deal (as long as it's not Passion of the Christ extreme, or the writer doesn't decide to turn it into sexxytiems -- and I know you wouldn't do either!), but only if there's a big, honkin' boatload of comfort afterward (if not, it's just sadism, which is really, really not my thing).

My other squicky thing was de-aging, which you were also side-eyeing a bit. Again, it's one thing if there's something canonical (like the younger version of Jack in SG-1), or if there were supernatural elements in canon that might account for it. Otherwise? DNW.

I'd be okay with Stockholm syndrome connected to someone like Loki, because we've seen him whammy people.

Seriously, that icon is killing me. ♥ ♥ ♥

Yeah, exactly - I can't deal with the sadism aspect at all, and the sexxytiems, god no, all I can think is how much it would hurt. I don't like flexing my hand when I've got a paper cut!

Yeah, I was specifically thinking Loki for Stockholm syndrome -- there's some great post-movie fodder there. (Or even during, since it sounds like Clint was practically goa'ulded.) (And, for that matter, there's goa'ulding, or potentially all the Tok'ra hosts, including Jack, Sam, and Jacob...)

You're welcome to my icons, too. I don't make very good ones, but they serve their purpose. *g*

Same here. Pain will never be erotic to me (just like incest won't, either).

Or even during, since it sounds like Clint was practically goa'ulded.

Totally! That could be really interesting to explore, as a writer. (Wait... who am I kidding? There must be lots of Clint ponders... stories out there already! *g*)
