Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I've always thought Addie Palicki would be a perfect sister for Jared: long bones, similar eyes, moles. He has better cheekbones, she has a better nose, but they'd play better siblings than lovers. Just IMO. Of course she was doing Tyra Collette when F13 was in production, so no way the scheduling would have worked out.

Righetti is gorgeous, there's not even a slight imaginary resemblence there.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I follow Jim Beaver on Twitter. He's generally a pretty interesting guy. I wish his 10-year-old daughter would stop posting on his account. Or at least, cut the volume of posts significantly. t /get offa my lawn

Because books.

I like Jim on the show, but I stopped following him a while ago on Twitter. He got really whiny a lot of the time.

Wow. Fan art of the interior of Bobby's house.

Amazing!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

YOU GUYS. I don't know what happened. I don't even like this pairing (alhtough I'm a writing whore - I'll basically write about everything once an idea pops in my idea - which is alarmingly often - even on fandoms I know next to nothing about (or really nothing. Like here)). So basically, the thing is this: after a long time of refusing to watch SPN out of 'I don't like monsters anyway' and 'two hot guys in a car isn't enough to make me watch a seven-seasons show', I finally surrendered and watched exactly four episodes. FOUR. And then I got distracted (yes, I have the attention span of a fruitfly, I know) by all the shiny fanfic. I figured - I do that a lot too - 'why watch the show and imagine the smexing if you can have it in the fic?'. OH MY LOGICAL BRAIN.

It gets worse

ANYWAY. So I got into the fanfic and then I fell in love with Gabe

Yeah, theviolinist is on my List.

Awesomesauce, Amy! I think the silly tiny room with the two doors should have been linen and utility closets.

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

I need someone to answer the question of the number of bedrooms in Bobby's house. I'm willing to accept he has three or whatever, but they've been converted into storage, so that's why you get the boys sleeping in the living room so often. But they can still move in there once they decide on a home base.

I'm not sure I prefer them sharing a room or not. Sometimes I do.

Wow, Julie, the first time I read that I thought she said she watched four seasons, and I thought that wasn't bad. And then, for some reason, I read it again. I still fail to understand a lot of people.

Sometimes fic can make you fall in love with characters canon didn't because they give you alternate ideas and motivations, but that's not what people are doing with Gabe. Most often, they simply aren't writing canon Gabe and his extensions. Oy.

Because books.

The scene in 4.02, I think, where Dean is upstairs with Meg, makes it clear there are more than a couple rooms up there. In a house that size, there would be at least three.

I think Sam and Dean might end up bunking in the living room because they're lazy after a night of researching. But one room up there is clearly a guest/bedroom, because Bobby took Lisa and Ben up there.

Sam and Dean also might not want to go to the trouble of putting sheets on a bed, and that kind of thing. Also also? I doubt Bobby dusts up there much.

And during the episode at the end of the season where Cas came in to talk to Dean, he was the only one sleeping downstairs, I think. I guess they have only built out the ground floor, but I find it very frustrating.

Good catch on taking Lisa and Ben upstairs. I'd forgotten that.

I hope to fix that :D Been rewatching some eps and remembering "hey! Gabriel was a cool, funny, smighty guy!"

It boggles me that he's been there since season 1.

I was skimming the blind pianist verse which is now done, and my god, the amount of words that were spent just on banter with Gabe. No plot, no character development, just rambling nonsense.

Also, what is with fics that give a pairing, a rating of M or NC-17, and then the pairing doesn't even start pre-slashing until 3/4's into the fic. Or there is no scene with both characters in it until halfway through. Especially when most of these stories hinge the plot on the romance, which isn't even there as a booger in the corner of the writer's eye until the fic is almost done (which is a long time in a 50,000-150,000 word fic).
