Perkins, it's like I no longer know who you are.
One of the thing I love about BB season (even though it occasionally leaves me wishing I could induce very specific amnesia), is seeing the sheer variety of what people come up with in terms of ideas. There are actually a few fics this year I may read even though they're in genres I would normally avoid like the plague.
I'm not reading as much this year as last. There's a sharp drop in D/C (for sure) and gen (it seems like). As for het, what's that?
The neverending J2 AU ideas, though--those continue to entertain. And there have been a few that made me wish I didn't have an RPF squick because they sounded interesting or comfortingly rom-commish.
I think Jolly Snidge actually wrote something that I refuse to read. And there's a JDM/Lee Pace movie that I do not want to watch.
What of hers are you avoiding?
The Resident AU where Dean is a crazy stalker landlord. The JDM movie looks horrific.
Dean's playing the JDM role?
What's the appeal of John/Dean if they're not related?
If the age difference is still there, I'd imagine it's still the father/son vibe, or at least a kind of "mentor emotionally drawn to naif" thing.
I should probably qualify that by saying the one John/Dean I read and enjoyed (and which made me sob) was one in which Dean has been orphaned young and placed in foster care, and John is a hunter he meets when he's hustling. The author never states it explicitly, but the takeaway is Dean is one of the children John placed in foster care after the fire, and Sam (I think) died as a baby .
ita, yes.
For the second question: they're both hot? Experienced older guy/younger guy? Playing with the daddy kink without the taboo?
I know there a bunch of people who won't read Sam/Dean if they're not related. They read it for the fucked up ness. If there just two guys, who cares?
And others that won't read Wincest unless the kids grew up as hunters or something similar, because they don't want to read about emotionally healthy brothers screwing each other.
I can totally see both of those.
D/C allows for a lot age difference play, so it wouldn't occur to me to split the Winchesters and bring them back together--I guess if it's not gruff slave driving John dealing with his compliant son, why isn't it a JDM/JA fic?
For Daddy kink, see Rufus. I would let him play with dollies.
