I had started reading a multi-part fic the other day and the computer went and did an automatic update/reboot on me and I lost it and can't find it in my history (I've been opening so many tabs as I find interesting links to read for later, it's byzantine, and I'm actually not certain how many days the tab was open on the fic before I actually began reading it).
It's apocafic, and Sam, Dean, and Cas are defending survivors outside a leveled city and the only survivor is a little girl that they take with them. I didn't get very far to get a feel if it was any good, but I'm curious to see where they go with all of it. Any ideas, anyone?
Is it this big bang fic? Ehab and I were discussing it upthread.
My sister and I have been exchanging fandom artifacts, and I sent her the architeuthis Except Thou Bless Me story to see how it worked with someone who knew nothing of canon. She was really impressed.

::smacks forehead::
That would be it!
I've been waiting for architeuthis to update his Song of Songs series. Nansense put out two more posts, but it's a WIP, so I'm waiting to see how they turn out, but I like them so far, even though her opening notes of "seeing how all of us Dean/Cas shippers were pissed off at how obviously OOC they were in Swan Song" ticks me off.
I dove into another big bang this morning and I'm so regretting it. Jo has been offensively domesticated so far and I fear it's only going to get worse.
Gah, that sounds delightful, ehab. Jo is so rarely done well by in fandom.
Apocalypse Z is the only big bang fic I can wholeheartedly recommend so far. It had me laughing out loud several times.
I was tempted by that one's summary, ehab, because Jo/John holds a naughty fascination for me, but domesticating her is wrong!

Ugh. I'm pissed at the D/C shippers that are pissed that their ship was messed with by the finale, and the the Wincesters that think that
their
ship was validated instead. Why can't we all just get along? We're all making shit up, anyway. Well, except for the Bobby/Crowley and the Sam/Brady shippers. Those have text on their sides.

He's probably caught up in the D/C big bang. I'm excited for his contribution, since I think he's down with awesome Sam. It's nice to think there's going to be an
entire
big bang dedicated to my favourite ship, but I'm askeered of upcoming character assassination including incredible amounts of OOC schmoop.
Pardon my ignorance, but can someone please explain "big bang"? TIA!
I don't know if there's an official word count, but essentially it means "large ficathon with multi-chaptered stories and artwork". Right now SPN is in the middle of unveiling a general/RPF one (it will go on until August--there are about 300 authors) and there's a Dean/Cas one unveiling in October.
Apparently there was wank about one ship having its own big bang, but whatev. Chill out, fandom.
Oooh, boy, did I like "Where the World Begins". I think, maybe, I've had my fill of angsty, angry, shouty, fiercely and violently passionate stories. Although there was that in places. Foreheads touching is my new kink.
