It's something like he's coming back from whatever suspended state he's in and his body starts to spasm (too cold? I forget) and the girl climbs on top of him to help him like stop shaking? I guess? And then the text says something about how "and then that led to quite a bit more happening that I'm not going to get into anyway we're a thing now."

I spend a lot of time making posts to justify why I'm not a self centered shithead that just wants to act like COVID isn't a thing.

Snow Crash and Cryptonomican were two of my favorite books as a teenager and even as an impossibly horny teenage boy I was like whoa, this is a little much.

Every Neal Stephenson book has a sex scene so bad it makes me wonder if it’s an in-joke he has with his fans.

Also Charles Stross is more hip. :agesilaus:

At least in Fall, he cut to the chase with "and then they copulated on the floor". I can't decided if that's worse or better than a detailed scene.

not a big fan of the guy who looks like a badger affixed itself to john malkovich using the word "copulate"!

also i forgot stephenson and his coterie of people who like esoteric variants of swords wrote The Mongoliad, as well

i liked the books but have just discovered a whole world of mastubatory publishing methods were also involved in order to get the maximum amount of fanfiction into the maximum number of eyes
