Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Dammit. I don't know that the show itself can grab me, as I've given it a chance and been unmoved in the past (even with Amy Acker guesting). I'd been holding out despite all the folks here and on my LJ reading lists who've gone ga-ga overit. But shallot just roped me into another fandom whose canon source I don't follow regularly.

See, it works best when mainlined, and then it hits S2, and the show actually gets *good* as a regular thing, instead of just showing promise. And then you go back and rewatch S1, and realize that, Holy Fucking Shit, Batman, They Actually Had a Plan! And you start THROWING Kool Aid at people, just HOPING they'll drink it!

And then Jilli pets you on the head and tells you she won't make fun of you if you don't make fun of her for My Chemical Romance.

Though that last one might be a me-only thing.

Morgana, as an addict, have you seen this recs site?

Oooooh, no I hadn't seen that site. Thank you for the fresh supply. Who needs sleep anyway?

Sleep is overrated.

del.icio.us searches for supernatural recs and recs pages? much better use of time.

Or so I've been telling myself this week.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Matt, do you have a link to that story? Shallott's LJ has been deleted.

The title, incidentally, is "Bad Blood." (warning: Wincest.Very, very funny Wincest.)

Oh, I snickered through that story.

"You'd rather fuck a horse than have gay sex," Sam said. "Yeah, and I'm the pervert."

Okay, maybe it needs to be read in context.

What's hilarious to me is that a friendly aquaintance of mine had a somewhat similar argument during his fraternity initiation.
