Celestial Reviews 246 - January 7, 1998
Note: I am getting a little behind <g> in my reading lately. With the
holidays and the Christmas Story Contest, I have not been able to read
many of the stories submitted to me for review. I'll catch up shortly.
Second note: THE WINNER OF THE CELESTIAL CHRISTMAS STORY CONTEST.
Before I announce the winner, let me say that I was delighted at the
number and quality of the entries. I don't mean to be trite when I saw
this; but I honestly feel that there are no losers in a contest like
this. The authors "won" by expressing themselves in some excellent
stories; and we readers won by obtaining some good stuff to read. I hope
many of the new authors will use this as a starting point from which to
gauge their progress as writers. Thanks to everyone who participated!
I am going to announce only one winner, and it has not been an easy
decision. There were several outstanding stories. I have no objection
at all to someone else publicly proclaiming his/her own winner based on
these entries.
The winner of the Celestial Christmas Story Contest is "Stocking Filler"
by Bronwen. The story came across to me as a wonderful presentation of
sexy Christmas magic. Congratulations, Bronwen! You can add this award
to your resume!
The following is an alphabetical list of ALL 31 entries. Reviews of
these stories can be found in the current and past issues of Celestial

"Snow Angels" by Saucy Wench (wenchsaucy@aol.com). Question: What is a
"coolie"? Answer: A quickie in the snow.
The two ladies are snowed in for the evening - or perhaps longer - in a
comfortable rustic cabin. So they go outside and frolic naked in the
snow. Their nipples get hard, their breasts get perky, they make snow
angels, and then Caesar (the dog) jumps against the door and locks them
outside. Well, not really; but Brandi lets Janet think so.
So what do two sexy ladies do to keep warm when they are trapped outside
the house in the snow near a hot tub? Wrong! They walk a half mile or
so to the nearest occupied house, which is occupied by a half dozen
teenage boys jerking off while they are watching porn flicks. But that
possible scenario seems risky or risqu‚ or both, and so they go to the
next house; where they are greeted with open arms, dial 911, and make a
cop come.
Actually, this isn't a Christmas story at all - just a walk in a winter
wonderland. It's an unpredictable story with numerous twists and turns
and various other gyrations. Let me say that everyone - er, everything
- finally comes together in the end. I liked this story a lot.

"A Child's Christmas" by Mat Twassel (Mmtwassel@aol.com). The author
says he hadn't originally intended to write a Christmas story, but he
was disappointed that Mark Aster didn't give us Pat and Julie and Keda
and Tommy enjoying Christmas and felt compelled to do it on his own. So
he borrowed the gang from the Allen sisters, and the result is a
delightful story that reads almost like one Mark would have written
himself. The author points out that if Mark wants to sue him, he hopes
that maybe Julie Allen will consent to be his lawyer.
The story begins with Our Hero (to whom the author gives the cryptic,
almost laconic name "Al") returning from his day's work as a department-
store Santa Claus, accompanied by a delightfully bratty child named
Malcomb. The adults do Christmassy things with the kids and sexy things
with each other. The NBC Today Show is currently running a series about
turning 40; and from what they say and from what happens in this story,
we can safely conclude that Al has not yet reached that age. The author
does an excellent job of imitating Mark Aster, with perhaps a touch of
John Steinbeck at the very end.

"An Elf Maiden's Christmas" by PJ (pjurado@aol.com). An evil,
dark, intergalactic power has decided to destroy Light throughout
the universe, beginning with Earth, which is noteworthy for the
light and goodness emanating from its north pole. The disembodied
Elf Maiden Gwena is sent as the emissary of Naar to carry out this
destruction of benevolence. Meanwhile, in Mr. Claus's toy
factory, the novice elf Tifa has been assigned to section thirteen
to screw on case lids.
This could lead us to the classic Christmas joke: How many elves
does it take to screw on a case lid? Answer: Just two, but they'll
sometimes fall off the case lid while they are screwing. But the
author doesn't go there. Instead, we have a face-off between the
Elf Maidens Gwena and Tifa. Will Gwena convert Tifa and the
others to the power of darkness? Or will Tifa win Gwena over to
the power of Light? Or will they simply engage in wild elfin sex
and go their separate ways? Or will Gwena possess the body of
Tifa and seduce Santa himself? And what will Mrs. Claus do if she
finds out? The answers may surprise you. There's only one way to
find out. Read the story.

"All I Want for Xmas" by No One (tcm_mct@hotmail.com). Bree is a
young lady who has discovered and accepted her lesbian
orientation. Which is fortunate, because Santa Claus happens to
be female in this story. Actually, it's not Santa who is
delivering Bree's present, but rather one of those elves with
fiery red hair, pert breasts, and a tight little ass - the sort
that evokes visions of sugarplums.
After some small talk over milk and cookies, the elf serves
herself up as Bree's Christmas present. The story even has a
moral: it's only when you start taking the gift for granted that
it loses its meaning, and is no longer a gift.
This is another very nice story!

"Holly & Ivy - An Xmas Fantasy" by Captain Atom
(captatom@thepentagon.com). Many other Christmas stories have a
plot of sorts - something to do with harmony in the universe or
being kind to children. This one is a straight fuck and suck
story: the narrator finds Holly and Ivy under his Christmas tree,
and they're off to the races. It's hot stuff!

"The Twelve Nights of Xmas" by Captain Atom
(captatom@thepentagon.com). The narrator has done a good deed for
Mary, a new vice-president at the company he works for. As a
reward, he has received the gift of a new woman for each of the
twelve nights of Christmas. Beats the hell out of a partridge in
a pear tree or a bunch of lords a leaping!
The episodes are hot but brief. I suspect that the author knows
that there are FORTY days in Lent.

"Charlie B's Christmas" by Sacvan (sacvan@hotmail.com). Charlie
Brown has been seduced yet one more time by Lucy. No, not for
sex, but to play football. As he approaches the ball to give it a
good, firm kick like one of the Pilgrims from the Mayflower, he
notices that Lucy is wearing no panties at all. Her cunt is pink
and beautiful, with just a well-groomed touch of her raven-black
hair, flashing sensuous organic color right next to the white
snow. As he continues his approach, he notices that the tuft of
pubic hair seems sticky. The fingers of her other hand are
rhythmically circling her clitoris, her pelvis moving in sympathy.
Maybe she had been masturbating right on his front porch. Or
perhaps she had just had sex with someone else. The hand reaches
down, so delicately, it seems to take impossibly long, and inserts
fingers deep into her cunt. She tosses her head back, her lips
parted.... Will he kick the ball, or will the distraction cause
Charlie Brown to miss the football yet one more time?
This story will make no sense to Europeans, who think football is
soccer.
The story is not yet complete. The author promises us the rest by
next Christmas. I hope he keeps that promise.

"A Christmas Triple -- Three Stories by Kim"
(Ghost@nym.alias.net). Kim certainly has been writing some
excellent stories lately! This is a set of three stories, each
quite different from the others.
"A Quiet Rooftop Orgy" is set in the context of Malinov's Holiday Orgy.
To put it briefly, Kim and Rob get it on nicely on the rooftop of the
Castle. Then in "Dark Doings in the Dungeons" various authors punish
the repentant reviewer for her pernicious punditry, if there is such a
word. But the depraved damsel bares up - er, bears up - and takes on all
comers - men and women, fingers, tongues, pricks, dildos, with a
delightfully wicked enjoyment and offers her customary love and kisses
to all. The final story, "Silent Night," is not as good as the other
two. It relies heavily on a surprise ending that just didn't move me.
But two out of three ain't bad!

"Forget All That" by Uther Pendragon (anon584c@nyx.net). I suppose
the main characteristic of the sexual activity in Uther
Pendragon's stories is that it is both delightfully arousing and
arousingly delightful. In addition, the sexual activity is a
perfectly natural part of each story. We don't read about sexual
athletes or people under the mystical influence of mind control;
we read about people like ourselves or our parents twenty or fifty
years ago. It turns out we might have been interesting and sexy
people.
And then we have the aphorisms - adages that would make Benjamin
Franklin proud.
**** "There is room for two in a twin bed, but not for two and a
wet spot."
**** "Daughters and husbands both create messes, but my daughter
and my husband are both worth it."
This chapter in the Brennan saga is written from Jeanette's
perspective, and it includes her perfect description of her
perfect man: "His puns are execrable, his vocabulary can make me
blush, he thinks that passing gas is funny, his version of
vacuuming a carpet isn't worth plugging the machine in, he can
out-stubborn a cat without even trying. He will, however, hug me
when I need it without my telling him why I need it. And no, you
can't have him." When you mix that sort of thing with discussions
of family finances, parenting skills, French phrases that are
easily transparent to non-francophiles, and really hot and tender
sex, the result is a darned good story.
As this story begins, Bob and Jeanette have now been married for
ten years. Imagine that. The Kitten (their daughter) is not yet a
year old. They have returned to Bob's parents' house to celebrate
Christmas and to make this story eligible for the Celestial
Christmas Story Contest. The story is a remarkable combination of
current activities and flashbacks to Bob's and Jeanette's earlier
lives together and apart. I laughed and I cried and visited my
own version of Bob for orgasmic and comic relief. What more can a
girl ask for in a story?
The story is long on "relationships" - in this case with a focus
on the relationship between Bob and his family. In addition,
within this line of thought the author gives us sometimes lengthy
digressions on complex topics. For example, we get a complex
lecture on economics from Bob's father. This is boring - but
that's the point: the old man goes off onto perplexing tangents,
but that's part of his personality. I think it is always
difficult to deal with relevant but extraneous information in a
story where the readers will be looking for erotic impact. I
suppose this author could improve, but I think he already does a
pretty good job. My advice is, if you find yourself reading a
paragraph that sounds way too complex, just read it without trying
to understand all the details. There's a good chance the author
is just trying to give the impression that the characters are
having complex thoughts - he's probably not really trying to teach
you any French or economic theory.
As in many other episodes of the "For" stories, the author throws
in tantalizing details that make us wonder, "What was that all
about?" For example, in this episode Bob and Jeanette visit her
family as well as Bob's. The details of that visit led me to
suspect that Jeanette had been subjected to some form of childhood
sexual abuse from which Bob wants to protect his wife and his
daughter. The author handles this kind of innuendo extremely
well.
Penultimately, let me give you non-francophiles some free help.
Bob and Jeanette are long on puns. The main pun in this episode
occurs whenever the baby says, "Oooh." Each time this happens Bob
immediately replies (often in French), "No, it's not August; it's
December." Ya see - The French word for August sounds remotely
like "Oooh," and since Jeanette is a student of French....
Finally, please note that the story has been reposted in revised
form by John Dark (john_dark@anon.nymserver.com).

"Thank You, Mr. Dickens" by El Sol. The author has subtitled this
"A Slightly Sexier Christmas Carol. And indeed it is. Although
Ebonezer Razz is a modern version of Ebenezer Scrooge, the author
has expended legitimate and fruitful effort to bring the old
tightwad into the 20th century. In addition, the genders of some
of the characters have been changed in order to enrich the sexual
experiences.
To enjoy this story, all you have to do is engage in a few "what
if's?" What if Scrooge had a sexy half-sister instead of a loving
nephew? What if his beleaguered employee were a hard-working but
attractive secretary rather than a guy with a crippled kid? What
if Scrooge begrudged his employees their happiness but then
eavesdropped on a couple of them having sex in the office during
the Christmas party? Think of the voyeurism that would be
possible during the visits of the ghosts of Christmas past,
present, and future! Think of what Scrooge could do that would be
more memorable than send a prize goose to his nephew! And who
might exclaim, "God bless us every one!" at the climax of the
story - and how might that climax and those words differ from Tiny
Tim's?
This story has great potential, but the author himself points out
in his disclaimer that this story isn't yet quite what he wanted.
The Christmas Carol theme seems to be a natural for a sexy
Christmas story, but nobody yet has risen to the task. El Sol
promises to try again next year. I hope he does. It's already a
good story, but it could become much better. And remember: the
copyright has expired; so the rest of you can grab onto this story
as well.

"Other. A Fantasy" by Tom (tje@mail.nls.net). Guest review by BillyG.
Have you heard someone lament, "If only I had my life to live over."? Or
have you said, "If I only knew then what I know now . . ."? The story's
author, mourning the missed opportunities of seducing his boyhood
friend, Sam, or the "lovely blond girl with braids on each side of her
head," Molly, gives himself that chance of going back and re-living his
life at age 12. Accept that there are an infinite number of parallel
worlds and that our protagonist has the capacity to jump at will to any
of these and you have the beginning of this story.
I'm left with the impression that the author regrets the missed
possibilities of seducing a smooth young boy or a pre-pubescent girl and
is giving himself permission to go back and get it right. Now here's
the important psychological catch: He goes back with all his adult
memories intact. He becomes, in essence, the same "dirty old man" in
the body of a 12-year-old boy. As a consequence, his psychological
advantage is enormous.
This story then becomes a variant of the body snatchers or the shape
shifters wherein a lecherous adult who is emotionally stuck in the
missed windows of pre-adolescent seduction, disguises himself as a kid
that he might re-live the lost chances. More, if and when the natural
course of events play our or fail to develop to his desire, he simply
looks for the EXIT sign and jumps to yet another parallel universe.
There is a lack of substance in the nameless protagonist, a slippery
superficiality of repeated seduction and desertion that I found
decidedly unappealing.

"Summer Help" by Joshu Levi (levi_joshua@hotmail.com). Guest review by
James.
What I immediately liked about this story was its mildness, its
suggestiveness. The first few paragraphs made me think one way, but
really took me another. I had to ask myself what sort of story I was
reading. Strangely, I liked it this way.
She is Barbara Williams, a divorcee for five years. An overprotective
17-year-old son who has now left for school helps set the scene. Now the
house feels empty and larger than it really is.
At least she still has her looks. Barbara knows she still looks good.
She's noticed the way her son's friends look at her. Especially the one
she invites over to help her with chores.
Such is the story.
I like this story best not for its sex, but for the way Joshu sets a
scene. However, especially with a "continued...", this story fails to
satisfy. The story is too suggestive - the sex too short lived.

"In the Backyards" by Frederick T. (an19164@anon.nymserver.com). Guest
review by Dart.
I found this to be a somewhat strange story. It certainly didn't develop
in the direction I expected; and even after I read the story several
times, its development, its plot, still leaves me both baffled and
amused. Perhaps the proper way to view the story is simply as a series
of events that occur to a twelve-year-old one summer - events that are
connected because they happened to him. These events may describe
reality, but they make for a disjointed story. Still, I did enjoy
reading it - if that makes any sense.
The story begins very pleasantly by describing the summer adventures of
a healthy, and daring it turns out, twelve-year-old male. One morning he
climbs a tree and discovers that he has an unobstructed view into Elsa's
bedroom. And there she is, nude, combing her hair. He watches until she
eventually sees him. For a moment they stare at each other, and then
Elsa closes the drapes.
Well, I suppose for a twelve-year-old that that's enough to create an
obsession. It certainly does so for the story's young hero. He returns
to his lookout tree on several other occasions, but the drapes are
always closed. More drastic action is required, and the young man rises
to the challenge.
What should happen now? Well, for me, what happened was totally
unexpected. It was also not well integrated into the plot. I won't say
more, because everyone should be allowed to experience the story's
surprise for him- or herself.

"Blossoms" by Lord Malinov (malinov@mindless.com). Guest review by Sven
the Elder.
As those who read both a.s.s and a.s.s.d at present can ably testify, a
lot of the former has become a rather putrid swamp just at present.
This fact is evoking rather a lot of vehement, if mildly entertaining,
posts to the latter. All have good points; and yes, there is "freedom
of speech" and yes, that includes all shades from the light of some
really excellent stories to the dark of troll & shock merchants, who are
rather like naughty schoolboys saying 'Bum' for effect. There are also
the dark porn merchants that beggar belief. Sadly, in our imperfect
world and anarchic Usenet they too have the 'right' to post. We also
have the 'right' not to read.
Soapbox ditched, mild rant mode 'orft'! Why this mention of the dross
you ask? Well, every now and again a story comes to light which eclipses
the rubbish to such an extent that it is worth trawling through the
garbage to find it.
Malinov, I know you don't like the thought of your work going through a
critique process; so I shall not do so. Just be aware of one thing,
gentle readers: Mal has recently started writing what he calls "Trashy
improv(isation)" - his description of some of his short stories. They
tend to use the English language in a neat and concise way which,
coupled with short punchy story lines, is most entertaining. They are
all worth searching out. Use Deja (adult) Malinov.
This is *not* a "trashy improv," I hasten to add - just a rather nice
story about gentle, hot love in the latter stages of pregnancy. Go find
it and enjoy a superb read.

"Romantic Interludes" by LM l (RNRH85C@prodigy.com). Guest review by
Kim.
Hey, my first review of 1998...
So what have we got here? I was somewhat perturbed to see this in the
introduction to the piece : "The following story contains extreme sexual
content." Wow, I thought, what has Celeste dropped on me now? A snuff,
pedo, scat, cannibal, bestial, love story or something?
Well, no actually. A rather timid little story about a guy and his
girlfriend who one evening decide to kiss, suck, lick and fuck. And
that's it. I think LM needs to check out the usual day-to-day contents
of ASS before he issues such heavy warnings in future <smile>.
That really is the entire plot. The girl, Lisa, asks the narrator,
Jeremy, to make love to her, and he does. You couldn't really ask for a
more succinct story than that.
Question is, of course, was it any good? Weeeellllllll... to put it
bluntly, not really. The writing is pretty clumsy, and the character of
the girl is vacuous to say the least. One more "squeal" out of her and I
felt I wanted to slap her soundly round the face.
I guess I shouldn't be so harsh on such a genteel, almost romantic, by
ASS standards, piece. It's just a pleasant little story of two people
being very nice to each other. It's just a shame it wasn't done better.
I think LM needs to practice his story telling some more, but he should
stick with it, his heart's in the right place. I'm assuming LM is in
fact a male.

* "Citation" by Unknown Author. Guest review by Piper.
I think the premise of this story falls under the heading of "don't try
this at home". Any guy who flashes a female police officer in the
expectation of receiving the same kind of treatment John gets from
Officer Edwards deserves his just reward - booking, conviction, a police
record as a sexual deviant, fine, probation, and possible jail time.
Lucky for John, Kate Edwards isn't a normal cop, and she has a really
well-developed sense of humor. She gives him a chance to get out of the
"public exposure" charge (or whatever it's called in your neck of the
woods). In her own words, "Until six tomorrow morning, you are going to
be my slave. If you do everything, EVERYTHING I tell you to do, and
don't complain about anything...I'll be happy and you'll be free. Fail
to comply just once, or complain the slightest bit...and I book you as a
pervert. Deal?" At this point, John is naked and secured both hand and
foot to an empty bunk in an empty basement cell in an old, abandoned
police building. He agrees.
This story involves handcuffs, zap straps, whipped cream, a string of
pleasure balls, a small vibrator, an abandoned but still functional
police building, and a banana. Officer Edwards just happened to have
all of the above (except the building) in a bag in her patrol car (I
wonder just what kind of "emergency" these things could be used for).
Being the curious deviant I am, and having no personal experience in
this area, I asked my two friends about the practicality of using a
peeled banana. After the laughter died down and they quit smirking at
each other, I got the following advice:
"Yeah, you can use a peeled banana. It's better if you leave the
skin on, though," said one.
"As long as you cut the rough bit off the end," said the other (they
spoke in turns, frequently interrupting one another).
"Peeled, they're kinda fragile, so you gotta be real careful. Bear
down too much, and you got banana puree."
"That's messy. But it's fun cleaning up." (More laughs and
knowing glances passed between them.)
So now I know that bananas, peeled or not, are usable phallic
substitutes. The story gained a little credibility, although it still
remained well out in the realm of fantasy.
Technically, this story has some problems. Most of them, I believe, are
due to the ravages of time. The story has been around for a long time.
It's been through the mill, bouncing around from BBS to archive, from
system to system, from editor to word processor, and has suffered the
odd wound. While I did find one or two spelling errors, most of the
problems come from small bits of missing prose. Something, somewhere,
pruned a few words here, the end of a sentence there, and the odd
descriptive in between.
This is a pretty good story. It doesn't quite fit into the femdom
category because Officer Edwards doesn't abuse, mistreat, or humiliate
her captive. She merely teases him into having the best sex of his
entire life. The descriptions are hot. The sex is hotter. The ending
is a foregone conclusion about a quarter of the way through. An
enjoyable fantasy for anyone who's had lustful thoughts about our women
in blue.
