Hmmmmm. I just saw a newly posted BigBang, and to be fair it says it's an AU. But it includes "Graphic physical and sexual abuse of a child...Dubcon, Noncon, Nonconsensual breathplay, Nonconsensual watersports, Electric shock, Violence towards a minor." And if that weren't enough to entice me, there's this: "I know next to nothing about the legal system. Likewise, law enforcement agencies. Likewise, modern medicine. All facts about these things in this story are quite wrong." Jared is the 14 year-old minor in question. I think I'll choose something else to spend the next several hours with.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

That said, I can't say the demon blood addiction as written was particularly convincing and Kripke's explanation of the Dumbo line doesn't make much sense to me.
His explanation was my fanwank of it, so. Apparently my fanwank was the intent?
It was clunky, however.

I'm a live-and-let-live kinda gal, but... wow. ::boggles:: Mind if I join you, Morgana?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dear lord. To counter that, maybe a little, I just read an AU (non big bang) where the author also said she didn't know what she was talking about. Unsaid, a PG-13 D/C AU by liadan14, where Dean is deaf and Castiel is mute. I can't vouch for any accuracy about living with deafness, but the emotions are so charming and sweet that I at least hope for veracity.

Ooh, I really liked Unsaid.

Not at all. It's a nice soft cushy bench with lots of pillows and regular visits by waiters who wander by with iced tea and cookies.

Ugh. Is the assumption, then, that at least one of the pairings listed is performing the non-con on a minor? I know RPF readers, especially AU, are not thinking of people, but it's like the slavery AUs for me. I just...I can't even read the summary comfortably.

ita, that would be my assumption, that either Richard Speight or Frederic Lehne possibly both are involved in non-con with the minor version of Jared. And yeah, that hits my squick meter really, really high.

I just want to drown myself in schmoop. I wouldn't be reading that if it were set inside the show universe, but putting real people's names on it just wigs me out more.

Yup. Squick meter is definitely redlining.
