I actually couldn't remember either... :/ I had to go back to the canon
to find it, but it's from an old article by Seqram in HolQeD 5:2.11. Do
you have it?

Again I had to go to canon to remind myself, but we have this from BoP:

Heh, how things have changed... Despite my grizzling I'm actually quite
enjoying the mini climaxes! Keeps me well and truly engaged.

I still find that incredible. But the best stories are those you don't
have to work to tell.
