Take heart! Or something. I can help you weed through the possibilities, too.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wonder if this is because there's a D/C BB, or why there's a D/C BB. It didn't seem there were this few last year. I mean, seriously, seven times as much J2 as D/C? That's huge.

And J2 seemed to have dropped off for a while, too. I bet they're mostly AUs.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
There's a gen BB, too, but I have no idea if that's pulling a significant number of writers away from the main BB or not.
At least the main BB pre-sorts the fics by genre (J2, Sam/Dean, other slash, het, gen) for the artist sign-ups.

What are the dates for the gen BB?
Nanoochka wrote a thing that wasn't Play Turns Bitter. Nanoochka wrote a thing that was Dean/Cas/Bal. I read it kinda squinty not because I have an issue with the pairing, but because the politics/characterisation was a bit wonky for me.
On the other hand, pr0n.

I think it's at her LJ or linked to from deancastiel, but I read it on my phone so it's all confusey.
Thanks, Anne. I'll give it a look when I get home.
Of course, now I'm wondering...can I draw gen? So much of my shit is shippy. It's what I seem to be drawn to.
Right! Weechesters! Lemme at them. I'll totally do that.

Generals scares me. I've read the summary and warnings and pairings, and nan burned me with her last multi-chap fic.
Cas song: I oddly haven't found one yet, as I am all about vidding in my brain and pestering y'all with potential vid and fanmix songs.
A lot that I think apply to him are more Boys songs; him, Sam, and Dean. And the rest I've heard are vague at best. Roads by Portishead, Blackheart by Calexico, Pagan Angel and a Borrowed Car by Iron & Wine, Seven by Will Derryberry, Lay and Love by Bonnie Prince Billy...
Although, Tom Jone's "Ain't No Grave" is pretty good.

Generals is very dedicated to the porn. I just didn't dig the motivation.
I found the perfect Cas song. I just don't know what it is called. It was about a fallen angel on a mission the other angels didn't understand. And full of angst. Perfect. And ungooglable.
