Aww, Sam will have to wait until 2009 to have a storm named after him... [link]
Supernatural 1: Saving People, Hunting Things - the Family Business
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
Sam is always following after Dean. Oh, Sam.
We must be in the missing two years.
Ha! Fixed my computer (finally) and immediately found the HotH coda that I was yammering about last night.
now I lay me down to sleep by estrella30. Warning: It *IS* beautiful cake. The part that I think of though is the beginning...
Now that Dean knows about it, he keeps waiting to catch Sam doing it everywhere.
He watches Sam when they get dressed in the morning, skin and hair still damp from their showers and wonders: Did he do it just now? Did I miss it?
They leave the motel; winter air makes Dean lose his breath, his eyes tear up. He starts up the car and rubs his hands over the creaking heater, blowing into his fists and watching Sam from the corner of his eye.
Sam frowns and stares straight ahead. "What?"
I'm just waiting, Dean thinks. Are you doing it now?
He says, "Nothing," and pulls out of the parking lot with a roar when Sam looks like he's going to start asking questions.
Like with everything else in the world, Dean doesn't believe that Sam prays because he's never seen it. Until he finds Sam crouched on the floor with a string of rosary beads in one hand and a Gideon Bible in the other, in his head, Sam doesn't pray.
But he wonders, now, and it's pissing him off.
Warning: It *IS* beautiful cake.
I only figured out what that meant a third of the way through the story. Erk.
Oh, Anne. Erk indeed. Intro info is your friend!
That snippet is nice, though.
Where did the term "beautiful cake" come from, anyhow. I did enjoy the story, btw; I was just a bit taken aback by unexpected cake.
Anne, it's actually from Shrift--she has said "This is not my beautiful cake," with regards to stories or story-types that other people may like but she does not. It's a way of not saying "I hate that stuff," which can read as a dis on the people who do like it.
I saw Cass' rec and unpacked it, but didn't think to warn anyone more explicitly. Which I blame on a late dinner and some wank on LJ...
I... yeah, over my head. I'm figuring it out from the discussion context just now. I didn't click the link anyway, because I am a lazy bum, but, to quote Willow, "A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend."
(No shovels, I promise.)
Oh, I should have known to look at the story warning when I didn't know what BC meant. After my original !?! I was more amused than anything else.
