Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
anastdean on LJ has capped In My Time of Dying. She does frequent picspams, and is a touch too fond of PS, but there are some closeup caps in there I've never seen before. Definitely not dialup friendly, though work-safe. And be warned, the whole right side of her page is animated gifs, classic moments, and worth a look, definitely. But possible page load issues. Here.

Because books.
Oh, ass of Sam. Thank you, Sail.

Hee. I wasn't sure if that had been posted here or not, it popped up on my friends list on LJ and I just had to share.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Two more things that fic writers don't need to include:
1) "I was named after the angel of Thursday. My parents were very religious." 2) "Huh, I wonder why I just suddenly started calling this guy 'Cas'?"/"Dean! Why did you give Castiel a nickname?!"/"What did you just call me?"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"Huh, I wonder why I just suddenly started calling this guy 'Cas'?"/"Dean! Why did you give Castiel a nickname?!"/"What did you just call me?"
OMG YES. I'm a bitch for the moment where Dean first calls him Cas, every time, but stop calling it out so much, people.
I especially hate "Castiel is a dumb name, I'ma call you Cas instead." Urgh, guys. Way to hang a flag on it.

Huh. Took some time aside and read Luminous. My god, could she beat up on Dean more and not have character death?
That having been said, I totally fell for it--not precisely enough to rec, because I didn't enjoy it. But she had me in the emotional rollercoaster. I just didn't feel good about it at the time.
So I'm conflicted. As H/C, lots of H, and the C was a bit...weird.

If I can't handle the smattering of other End!verse fics out there, I doubt I can handle Luminous.
Way to hang a flag on it.
Seriously, Show got by just fine with just having it arise unremarked-upon

I adore Endverse fics (although I have to space out my reading), and Luminous was appalling to me. So definitely steer clear.
I went through that author's other Dean/Castiel, and she reuses a line of Dean dialogue in Luminous. Hmmph. I like her BAMF Cas, though, so I will definitely read other things she writes. And she did schmoop the hell out of the comfort part of the h/c. But still, the damage she had to do to our boy to get there...
Okay, so I might read the comfort part again sometime. Whatever. Don't judge me.

What exactly is Luminous about?
