Supplies and Materials: Miniature, graffiti (Lilith Faire Main Stage All of the Above, Idina Menzel), novelty bead (Who says I need a partner to dance?)

Summary: It's wearing, being every man's fantasy and none of her own.
Warnings: Mild sexual content.
Notes: Joy is a stripper, in case you weren't aware. Temporarily pausing pride fics for Lilith Faire.


As much as Joy loves her job, she can't deny that it wears on her sometimes, being every man's fantasy and none of her own. This man wants the shy coed taking her shirt off for the first time; that man wants the prostitute who flashes her breasts for a quarter. And even she, experienced as she is, guesses wrong sometimes.

But she does it, gets paid, then she gets to go home, where the furniture is exactly as she likes it and nobody tells her who to be. Her own body, her own mind.

Nobody can take that away.

I am actually a little jealous. Your own space is so important.

[bookblather]

Right?? Joy has some good priorities.

Again, you paint the character very well.

Thank you! I like doing short drabbles like this.

It's good she has a space to call her own.

[bookblather]

It is. Thank you!
