Personally, I think it sounds like you're too smart. Hear me out: you know a lot of things, and as a writer you have to decide whether just because you know something, and it's perfect for the fic, it's appropriate. I'm constantly writing things in and then taking them out.
Also, I wonder whether you're just essentially unhappy with the assignment (porn featuring two characters you don't care about?) If the fic is a "job" then why not get it over with as quickly as possible, within the parameters that your porn-hungry giftee desires? I'll just take a stab that the request didn't include anything highbrow :)
Fic requests, even if I volunteered, are so hard I'm basically not doing it any more. Even things I *want* to write experience some sort of kiss of death when I feel obligated to write them.

I am sure this helps not one bit.
