schmerica1) You should all tell ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fox1013 to write me Giles/Jack Bristow crossover fic. No, really. REALLY.
2) It has been too long since we had a good discussion of Benton Fraser's sex life in my journal! Come gather around, my lovelies.
Things I assume are true and explicit in canon, and therefore expect in any story I read:
Fraser slept with Victoria in Victoria's Secret (multiple times).
Things I tend to take as true when I write about Fraser, but not necessarily when I read:
I tend to read Fraser as pretty firmly bisexual.
I think Fraser probably jerks off on a regular basis. (And by regular, I mean regular; it's like stretching your muscles! It's medicinal, almost.)
I usually think that Fraser and Victoria's first meeting in the blizzard has some sexual component to it.
Stuff that's really fun to look at in a bazillion different ways:
Sometimes Victoria's the only one; sometimes it's her and a few other women; sometimes he's done it with boys and girls. I have a soft spot for guy-on-guy experimentation as a teenager, really, but that's my own kinks.
I'm not really a F/V slasher, but there are times on my viewings of s1 and s2 that I get the feeling that one of them is in love with the other -- but I can never tell if either of them is actually aware of it.
I do tend to think he knows he's attracted to Ray Kowalski pretty early on, but maybe not; denial or first male sexual experience can work as well.
All that said, it's hard sometimes to get a grasp on exactly how and what Fraser thinks about sex. There's definitely a rejection of the unconcious American macho male approach to it, but I think a lot of the dependence of him as deliberately asexual or devoted to the chivalry of "Heaven + Earth" can end up a little oversimplified. There has to be a balance between Fraser's unwieldliness at love and emotion, and his appreciation for the importance of body and mind, doesn't there?
In conclusion: Fraser is hot. Please to be telling me about his entire sexual history! *waits*

3/6/06 02:29 (UTC)RayK is (the picture of, but he really isn't) the bad boy you take home to piss off your parents. RayV is the one you take home because you want to be comfortable. Fraser is the weird one - he radiates tightly controlled/repressed passion. Find the right button and he could be worse than RayK, but without the button.... he would be safer than RayV. (nt that V is safe, but... he just seems more so than the others, at least, before Bookman).
Also, Fraser was taken from place to place, and if he wanted commitment, he might not have "messed" around with anyone besides possibly Insuiq (wow, that is off) or, erm,... Julie? Since he knew them and probably crossed paths with them numerous times growing up.
If Mark had been older when he moved away, than yes, Fraser might have experimented with him. But Mark did go, and I'm not sure if the Fraser I picture was in puberty at 13. I get the feeling he was a late bloomer, which is what makes him even more awkward around women. By the time he was interested, he would feel stupid and awkward approaching female partners. Guys are easier.
So, my fraser's first experience was with a guy. ^-^
Then, when Victoria came, he was swept up in the whole mystique of star-crossed lovers. He made a commitment to her (somehow...) and after that he didn't sleep with anyone. He was going to keep his word, and he did. Then she came back and screwed him over.
For some reason, I feel that when he went back home for a vacation, he healed from Victoria. And then there was RayK. And then there was Sex.
So not sure if this is what you want, or if this makes sense.
