Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Aw, thank you, Fay. I am having such a great time doing it! And I've met so many lovely people (online so far, but I have hopes for actual meatspace meet-ups at some point in time.) I really should thank the Buffistas, because I never would have thought to do any of this without having all of you around to be examples and offer support. So, thanks!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I haven't read much Mentalist fic, but this, Five Ways Patrick Jane Hasn't Died Yet (And One Way He Never Will) totally got me. Bleak as all hell, obvious character death.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

How the hell did I miss a Mentalist story Dira posted? Maybe the premise scared me.

Jesus Christ on a pogo stick - I've just written a story that's 152,288 words long. Over five weeks.

That would be a 600 page novel.

Damn, Fay. I can't imagine ever being able to get that many words out that quickly. I guess you really had a story you wanted to tell!

Congratulations, Fay!

Whoomph! That must feel like a huge accomplishment and a relief to be done!

Oh, hell with it. I'll self-pimp a SPN piece I just posted the other day: Five People Dean Has Screwed Who Weren't Human, One Who Doesn't Count, One He Would Have Screwed, and One He Still Might .

The first part of the title was the challenge prompt almost word-for-word. Gets into serious dub-con territory, and is not fluffy despite the goofiness of the title.

And yes, it ends with Dean/Castiel
