An Inaugural PWP: Academia/Pure Maths

Here's hoping this will encourage many and better things...

Academia/Pure Maths: A PWP

Academia fluttered its pages at Pure Maths. "Want to bury your sinusoidal curve deep in my binding?" it asked, its vocal chords quivering in anticipation.

Pure Maths iterated an algorithm in an attempt to hide its excitement.

"Take me," pleaded Academia. "Take me like a runaway freight train that leaves Boston at 9:18 travelling west at 143 miles per hour."

Pure Maths chuckled, its rich laugh reaching deep into its natural logarithms. "Party tricks," it sneered. "You want me to do party tricks? Applied Maths could do this!"

"Hey! You leave Appie out of this!"

Pure Maths sniggered. Implicit in its differentiation was the reminder that they had both laughed equally long and hard over Applied Maths' subservience to all aspects of Academia. 'Mathemagic', as they had nicknamed it, may be more useful to Academia, but they both knew Pure Maths was sexier.

"You want me to make you see uncountable infinities you've never even dreamt of?" Pure Maths asked, perhaps not noticing, perhaps not caring about the effect ending a sentence with a preposition had on its companion. "You want a long, hard Cantor's Diagonal Proof up against the wall?"

It was all Academia could do to nod acquiescence.

"You're going to have to beg."

For an anthropomorph so used to verifying its sources, this was not a problem. "I need you like I need footnotes. I need you like I need lecturers who mutter into the board rather than engaging with their students. I need you like I need Dilbert cartoons gracing the doors of my offices."

"Well," said Pure Maths, its hyperbolic functions dripping with variables, "if you put it like that..."

*Bows* I'm glad you liked. There's nothing quite as sensual as a well placed sinusoidal curve, I've found ;)

Re: aaargh!

I'm sorry, but Academia is as polyamorous as they come. Still, I'm pretty sure it has a special place in its heart for Mel... I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!

(Thank you.)

Re: aaargh!

*sniffle* I forgive you. But only because ... uh ... come to think of it, I have no reason to forgive you, 'cos you're EVIL. But I forgive you anyway, 'cos I'm nice like that.

Heeeeh! Thank you. *Pokes corpse* Now it's your turn to write some...

[info]amara_1783 told me all about this yesterday, but I didn't really know what to expect.

But wow, that was frickin' great! Wow!

*G* Thank you. I really am surprised that anyone but me finds these funny, but I guess that's the glory of the internet - nothing's too odd to share.

(And I'm in love with your possum icon. Seriously cool.)

Academia! *sob* How could you do this to me?! You tacky whore! You two-bit slut! I should just quit school and become a goat herder in Outer Mongolia -- and then I could read new Pratchett books as soon as they came out! Damn you!

Academia: *Shrugs* Fancy a threesome? You, me and some good, hard integration by parts?

How in the name of exsanguinating Jesus did I forget to comment on this!?! The shock, the horror, the vexation! I shall have fits of the vapours, precious! *sniffs smelling salts*

This is just mind bogglingly good! I adore it; the kink, the extreme oddness, the sheer genius of the whole thing! I need you like I need footnotes. ROTFL!!! Just, squeee!

Heh! *Presents you with more smelling salts as a thank you for your kind comments*

We need more fic for this community, but I just get distracted by all the other wonderful bunnies running around in my brain. *Sigh* You should write some!

Amara forgets for a moment that she is Not On Line

*accepts smelling salts flutteringly*

I know! Especially when the bunnies in question are the fault of muses who used to be horsemen of the apocalypse! And I promise I'll finish my Essay/Amara after I finish my actual essay :)

After reading your fiction, I have discovered that I am capable of holding my sides together from laughter as I cough politely and a little embarrassed.

[info]foreverdirt

June 20 2003, 11:18:54 UTC 8 years ago

Heeh! That's good news - and thank you, although I'm always a little hurt to discover that my tales of passion, romance and tragic loss are viewed with amusement. :)

This is faaantastic. *bounces around with joy* Your NC-17 Pure Maths/Applied Maths had me cackling as well though I am not mathematically inclined enough to understand it. Yay!

[info]foreverdirt

November 23 2003, 06:03:56 UTC 8 years ago

*grins* Thank you! And I'm glad you're broad-minded enough to appreciate even that love which seems incomprehensible to you. We should all be so tolerant.

(And dude, your icon! Brilliance!)

awesome!

I'm incredibly impressed. The rhythms of lust that you've managed to capture so well that you can make sexy the words you want.

Not that academia and pure maths aren't sexy in and of themselves.

*smiles*

You are far too kind. The sex appeal owes entirely to Academia and Pure Maths...

Well. I'm way late in finding this. But that was hilarious. Great stuff. *saves to memories*
