Well, I'm glad you're not always writing mind break stories.

This goes in the Father/Daughter folder. You put it in the wrong one.

so many downvotes

Nothing I do works

i liked it and up voted it

8245084 Some words of encouragement:
Firstly, you are going to be fighting an uphill battle writing sex. Especially with the theme; incest. So your technical writing skills have to be top-notch. Simple, avoidable mistakes like this:

But, He didn’t expect for her to turn towards this choice.

Moreover, the running theme I see is that barely 12 of your 84 stories are more than 2,000 words. And only 3 of those are more than 5,000 words. Even for a simple clopfic, sex without any real story, as a masturbation vehicle, there should still be at least 3000 words. There needs to be at least some kind of buildup with some foreplay to give the story some sense of pacing. 1,041 words is barely enough time for me to consider unzipping my pants. This story went by faster that Rainbow Dash doing a Sonic Rainboom. Sure, it may have taken all night to write it, but it will only take a reader 5 minutes to breeze through it.

For your next story, I challenge you:
Make a point of slowing down the scene. Be descriptive. Play on all five senses. Show, don't Tell.
Don't say:

Rainbow Dash felt hot.

Turn those four words into a paragraph. Don't tell us how she's feeling. Make US feel it.

Rainbow Dash squinted in the bright light and sweltered under the heat of Celestia's Sun, bearing down on her. Her ears were filled with the sound of her panting breath, sucking in the hot air of the summer day. She could smell the sweat pouring off of her as she felt it run down her neck, wetting her colorful mane. The only dry part of her, was her parched mouth, desperate for a drink of water.

Fleshing out a scene like this is a great way to pad out a story's length, and help control the pacing if you want to slow things down and focus on a particular scene. Description of the physical is especially important when describing a sex scene in a clopfic. And describing the mental, and emotional, is a great way to pace a sex scene.

Best of luck in the future.

how do I write descriptively with as few words as possible?

8245503 Writing descriptively and using as few words as possible are contradictory goals.

but, I was told to use fewer words on my last fic.

8245521 If you are referring to:

Sometimes less is more. The more you leave to the reader's imagination, the better the effect in terms of sheer arousal.
Of course, you have to give enough context to allow readers to understand what's going on. But when it comes to length, strive to mean the most in the least amount of words. (This is advice taken from Kurt Vonnegut)

I believe they were say that regarding redundant sentences, or overly 'clinical terms'.

"They raced, stampeding through the competition towards the egg cell that their mother and sister had welcomed for them."

This, while a good description of imagery, is not terribly arousing for most readers. And the sentence structure is a little clunky to read. A good way to check is to read it aloud and see how it sounds.

But my advice falls more in line with:

This could really use an editor, it's far too brief and cluttered to have the impact that you're looking for. I'd suggest spacing out the paragraphs, expanding upon the story as a whole, and not using such clinical language.

Remember, writing sex is not meant to just be a play-by-play of what is physically happening. How the characters feel is equally, if not more, important. Narrative description of emotion is a good way to achieve story length without clinical nuances. Dialogue can be even better. After all, if your characters feel nothing, so will the reader.
