See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Ergh. I wrote a thing, and posted it!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I love it! It is really the first time I have read anything by someone I “know” so well through the written word (I have read Dana and FayJay and such, but I read them sort of simultaneously with getting to know them). It is so interesting how I hear JZ so clearly.

In the end it's only ever been one step, and then the next.

Damn it, wee JZ, now I am crying.

... I'm sorry?

It feels like the audience for this thing is very limited, so if you know any of them, please share it because I don't know how else they'll find it.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I did post about it on Tumblr, for whatever my small audience is worth.

Thank you! And now I'm thinking about how Oluwande and Jim met, which is both interesting and scary because it involves two people whose life experiences and POVs are very different from mine--it was easy writing about bullied kids constantly drowning in shame over how disappointing and wrong they are. Super easy to fuck up in so many ways.

TYSM, Dana! I know I'm incredibly late and all but I'm trying to be a good citizen and read and comment and recommend as much as I can without derailing my actual work and stuff.

Thrive to spite them

I really like the story JZ. I hope you write more because I like your take on Stede.

For some reason I have been reading SPN fanfic. But only certain types and then I started reading Down to Agincourt and this is pretty much all I've done the past few days.

I haven't watched Supernatural in a long time. I'm not really sure why I have this sudden craving for it but here I am. I barely remember certain things.

The weirdest thing is that at some point when reading this ( but not in any of the other fics I've read) I suddenly started hearing Eliot Spencer instead of Dean's voice (although most of the time Dean sounds like.generic male voice in my head and Cas only sounds like Cas at certain times and the rest of the time he is male voice #2. ). And then I started picturing Eliot instead of Dean for some of it. But that was back in first part of the series and it hasn't happened since. I kept wondering if maybe Cas would.somehow morph into Hardison . Which didn't happen and I'm a little disappointed my brain couldn't make that leap.
