I definitely prefer to read (and to write) kink stories that focus on the textural, psychological, and physical experience of the kinky event. I do not like it when inflation fics spend 3 pages setting up characters and then all of its effort into the actual inflation scene is like 2 paragraphs of "he was getting bigger, and then he kept getting bigger, and then his clothes popped off, and then he was even bigger." I'm not going to accuse any of these writers of not being interested in that textual experience, but whether by lack of effort or talent (as in, an amateur writer who needs to practice and/or read more) it is absent from those stories and I find those ones dull.
This is not just limited to inflation, of course, this applies with almost any kink fiction. I think it is not unfair to say a small part of what made that "inflates u big and round" thing go viral (aside from the hilarious political context and implications) was that it was immediately reminiscent of the kind of lazy writing we come across a lot in this space. A story with uninteresting character who meander around and then spontaneously "inflate big and round and sexy the end" and you're left wondering what the point was if the author was going to leave all the detail they imagined out of the story entirely. Cliffnotes sexual fantasies are useless and boring! Pour your fucking soul into it, put every hot minutia into the text for me to slurp up! That's the writing, man, that's what prose is, that's the whole point of writing. Get with the program.
Anyways I'm 3 pages into the inflation scene in this story I think it's gonna be a good one.
