Where is Castiel in these stories if Jimmy isn't being a vessel?
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

[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.

AU's and AR's have Jimmy and Cas as human siblings lots and lots. Although half the time I don't know why the author bothered. And half the time, Jimmy died horribly and long ago.

Because books.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jimmy's also mostly straight. So if he has his own body, he doesn't sleep with boys. He only wants to sleep with Dean because of Castiel possessing him (either currently or past and he just can't get over the experience), and why the hell not get some of something?
Even in an AU, this seems to be important to me.
Just like Castiel can be bi or gay, but Dean must be bi or I pout. I have no idea why I can't let that go.

Yes, this. Though I haven't stumbled upon much Novacest, but I would have skipped right over that in a kink meme without registering it. Only the nasty stuff or the stuff I like gets remembered.

I haven't at all, until now. I mean, I'd read the pairings as Dean/Cas/Jimmy, or Castiel/Jimmy and initially thought slashy threesome or masturbation, but those always meant "sharing the same body", and the latter were not actually having soul/grace sex inside Jimmy's body.

I don't get how you make Dean strictly gay. That's a lot of canon to ignore.

Finished "Fooling Yourself". It was good, had some nice Sam & Dean horsing around, interesting premise with promise for high stakes and danger, rushed through the resolution, and kinda ended abruptly. It almost felt like a downgraded big bang and the author knew they wouldn't make the deadline and said fuck it and slapped it up as a mini.
I mean, I liked it, and wanted to like it more, for there to be more (and no, I do not mean porn)(this one time). I hope it gets remixed or whatever the term is for taking another stab at it. By another author.
Link is also good: [link]

There are 51 unread posts in spoilers lite and 18 unread posts in spoilers. Barely back and already I am feeling the pull.

That's a lot of canon to ignore.
And I don't see that many AU authors have a point making him gay. Make Cas gay--whatever. There is no canon attraction. But you have a character that's expressed attraction to men and women. Run with it, peeps.
I'm about to start Fooling Yourself. I just finished Eternal, And Eternal I Endure, and it was dry. I liked some of the plot bunnies, but there was no emotion there. And pre-slash? Ha. No, that's not what I think it means.
