If you want to see tight art and a pretty interesting HS AU, check out the AU story in the deancasbigbang It's Always The End Of The World Somewhere (sorry, link's on another machine). GREAT art--I can't even imagine the amount of effort she went to, and the story is quite cool, although shallowly I prefer when Dean
comes out and stays on the football team.
But that's a totally trivial HS AU preference.
I like what she does with Cas's personality--I like the whole "angel" family (she goes four deep, siblingwise). Sam's cute, and Dean...I wanted more, dammit.
eta:
I don't think I've ever read a Dean/Carmen story.
I read a completely depressing "Dean continues to hallucinate Carmen" series. I didn't buy it, because Dean wouldn't want that much of the alternate history to be true, but I kept reading so the writer would fix it.
Harrumph.
And
finally
someone writes a complicated Cas in high school.
That's some of the best bang art I've seen yet.
I love actual art. Photo manips can be lovely and moody, but I adore it when someone actually draws or paints, or whatever.
I'm definitely going to give the story a try, too. Um, now that I spoiled myself with the art. Oops.
I just turned on
That 70s Show
and saw Jim Beaver in a bit part. Hi, Jim!
We're watching S1 Dexter on Instant Watch, and Mark Pellegrino is Darla/Leyla's ex-husband.
People! Read the story. Cas is grumpy, badassed and Endverse influenced in AU. It's really cool.
The high school one? I just opened it! Sheesh, woman.
I nag because I care. I didn't realise at the time it was scaramouche (damn! work has blocked delicious, so I can't even look at the list of my bookmarked fics any more--curses) who wrote it. I know I have liked other stuff by her. I just can't tell you ... wait, she's the horrible woman who wrote Venn Diagram (D/C, angst). Then again, she wrote Dean Doesn't Listen To Eurhythmics (D/C, first time, cute).)
I literally *just* opened it. But I already saw
insouciant
! Heh.
I don't think I read Venn Diagram. I take it I shouldn't?
