For me it's more a sense of wry amusement. Not just at what I'm writing, but the way my brain fills with fog when I'm aroused. As I become wet I find it hard to concentrate, and my mind starts to wander, leading me to distracted and amateurish mistakes.

Anyway, I took a few days away and now I think I have a workable idea. I'm actually sort-of happy with it for once, although I know that'll only last until I start typing it.

Normally I like creating characters that are as richly detailed and alive as I possibly can, which can take weeks or months of work. Obviously that doesn't work here, it'd be a waste of time creating such a detailed character only to kill her within a couple of pages.

An obvious solution is to craft a good character, but have them able to return after dying. And an obvious problem with that, is them appearing godlike and the audience wondering how such an omnipotent being came to be killed so easily. So I put some thought into it, consulted some reference books and found the perfect creature.

The succubus. Most iterations of Succubus regenerate when injured, and others can only be killed temporarily. And yet they're not a super powerful creatures, they're ultimately quite fragile and would be 'balanced' enough to be a working main character.

And with High Fantasy being such a modular 'build-it-in-a-day' genre, I have what feels like a great premise. I have a character with a personality that I already enjoy writing, who has every believable excuse for getting into sexy situations. She's reasonably powerful, but can also die believably and then return.

All I'm left wondering, is whether I've created a Guro fic or a naughty adventure story with Guro elements. I should have the first section up within a few days.
