Of Chanukah, and Christmas, and birthday's and New Years Eve, Oh my

How to avoid generic sex scenes: Part 2/3.

.... &c., &c. If one of your characters happens to be gagged or something...well, there is still the other character talking, facial expressions, and internal monologue. The threesome sex scene in my dSSS fic, "He Hadn't Stopped Christmas From Coming," originally sucked.
