Fuck is a hard word to match or overpower, true--not just the shock value (if it still has any), but in the very harshness of its sound. But if I used a synonym, or a euphemism, I think I'd lose the point that, between them, it is just an agreed-upon fuck, nothing more fluffy or meaningful or emotional (on his part) than that, despite the fact that she secretly craves more. But I'll think about what you said, and thanks for taking the time to comment.

Btw--your stuff is good (lowball votes notwithstanding).
