Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I would be annoyed at the author

In the end, yeah, I am, but if the story's pretty good and I'm involved, my gut reaction is to be annoyed at Sam, and secondarily at the author.

It seems rare to me that Sam takes it for granted that he's owed what Dean gives him

I don't think it's ever really conveyed that Sam takes it for granted, more that the author is taking it for granted, which strikes me as the author relying on a well-worn trope without actually thinking it through for their own story.

Anyway, just a lot of misplaced annoyance on my part. It is a good way to get across Dean's lack of self-worth and putting Sam's welfare ahead of his own. I guess I'd just like to see another take on it once in a while.

I read a story from Jensen_Misha that was really Jared/Jensen and implied Jared/Misha, where there is knotting, self-lubing manginas, and Jared screaming "Take my puppies!!!".

I felt bad for laughing hysterically over what was essentially a rape fic. I cringe as I type that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Self lubing manginas are worse body horror to me than mpreg. I just read the most schmaltzy post mpreg story to see what I was missing, and i think the answer is still not much, as far as my tastes are concerned. Plus mega OOC.

Trust my rage

I finished S5 a few days ago. That was some good TV. Dean not wanting Sam to die alone nearly killed me.

So now, I could start downloading S6 (can't Netflix it) but I sort of don't want it to be over. (I'm thinking there is a S7 coming, but I haven't bothered to check for sure or when.)

So I'm going to re-watch the pilot tonight, I think. And I've been reading through this thread - something like 3000 posts so far. You guys talk a lot about SPN, but I'm loving it. We will see if I make it through the remaining 10K posts.

Like Dean didn't already know. Duh.

Either Janie-tangerine had a stronger beta this time round, or her English is improving greatly. I wonder what her native tongue is. But, bah! But! Don't do that to Dean!

eta: And, man, that last line got me.

OMG, I've signed up for reversebang. This might be the one that kills me, people. This might be the one. Someone has to claim *my* "prompt".

Because books.

I signed up, too.

Because someone is a big bully.

I'm avoiding my art friends list until Petite Madame's latest is not front and centre anymore. It's another one in her amputation series, and it's really bothering me. Even the thumbnail makes me disproportionately sad. I hope it's not going to be a long series.

Would be a perfect reversebang prompt, though.

I've decided I'm going to try and do two--if I can finish a draft by September 2nd, I can do two prompts. So maybe two very different pictures.

...and twice the opportunity to be rejected.

SPNartsupport is going to have a discussion (and try and pull in authors) to discuss what makes a good visual prompt. That will be useful.

Anyone else here I can bully into it? Bueller?
