I agree that the sex shouldn't be "insert tab a into slot a" *kiss kiss* talk of randomness, *snuggle* repeat.
It should have a plot. Then the sex scene should fit into the plot, be molded by the plot and affect the plot itself.
Sometimes I skip to the sex. Sometimes I skip *over* the sex. A truly great fanfic, to me, makes it all work together beautifully.
I'm not numb to it. But if it doesn't have a plot, ok, yeah, I'm numb to it. I've probably read something just like it before, yet with a plot and meaning. Same with the smutty pictures. If there is a short story to go with it, or even if the picture is from a fanfic I'm reading, that makes it *SO* much better...
