Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
That was something I never expected to learn, but Supernatural fandom, oh how it can surprise you.*nods*
I've read things here that I never expected to read.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
You mean like Wingfic?
Not that I'm reading it right now, or anything.

I am curiously unswayed by the wingfic actually.
It's not a squick at all, it just doesn't ever seem to lure me in. Which is kinda refreshing in this fandom where so many things are polarized.

Hmmm, I just realized, one could theoretically justify Sam wingfic and not have things be all hugs and puppies.

If I remember correctly from the Great Cilantro Debate of Ought Seven, you came down on the negative side, right? But you don't mind reading it when one of the characters has done the gender-switching thing?
I did, but because my reasons are character-based, rather than general squick based (and I could write ESSAYS on why, say, Connor/anyone or Simon/River works for me, but Sam/Dean causes me to flail and back away, because it's not that there isn't squick there, but it's very character and situation specific, and man, this parenthetical is almost an essay, so I'll stop now), that sort of switch/AU (I tend to stick to ones where one or both has always been a girl) provides me with enough of a remove from my interpretation of canon that I can be sold.
Or what SA said, except inverted. Though we both agree on the both girls part, I think.
And, yes, I think about this a lot.

Heh. Yeah.
I still can't believe I'm a mostly gen, casefile-type reader.
And a mostly gen writer with a side of tasteful het.
It's like they replaced me with someone else or something.

Well, I mean, if he turns out to be SATAN. He could barbecue the puppies! Hugs would be fatal!!

There's one AU that has Sam die and come back as a Reaper .
So very not hugs and puppies. (Though it's leaning S/D as it goes, so...)
