Ooh, I like that connection to ending in film. Because--yes. interesting! (Though obviously the narrative matters--i.e. WHAT are you repeating? If you're repeating a narrative of domination only, that's one thing; I don't think that's the narrative of most slash, anyhow, or even more romance. Unless you want to argue that the fellow gets tamed again and again--and that's an acknowledgment that we only want the wild fellow? so we make him wild? Must think on that.)
Vis a vis metablog, I'm probably just feeling cranky today; I actually went over to metablog and reminded myself that, yes, there are real positives to cross-pollinating conversation. And of course, yes, I agree you shouldn't ever have to ask for permission about a public post; you published, you can be linked, QED. That being said, it's kind of like the issue of writing about slash in a newspaper or publicizing it with criticism or whatever--I can't stop people, but there are times when I wish people wouldn't.
