Oh, yeah, I feel your pain. I actually get more embarrassed and close my eyes or cover my ears whenever it's something like a sitcom? Anywhere where the character embarrassing themselves is truly embarrassing, not just that everyone's looking awkward or exaggerated or whatever. You can always claim that everyone was over-exaggerating, and as a result, you don't look out of place. *nod*
As for about when they hook up, the funny thing about these fics is that they're not actually connected in one universe. They're just prompts that kickstarted something in my brain, so I tend to think of them as being different mini-universes? Like, how Author A will write the characters one way, and that's her sandbox, whereas Author B would write the characters a different way, and that's his? Both of them are still "correct" in their interpretations, especially if the characters resemble their canon counterparts, but they're still separate entities in a sense. I dunno.
Either way, there's a few prompts at the kink meme that look promising in terms of first-time fics, so I'll take a gander at those and see what comes out. :D
