It sounded sort of familiar to me, but in the way that I just slowly absorbed what fen meant, etc.
Don't put the trench coat on Cas's head, people. That's just ... stupid.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Julie, she's a bit of a diva, and has opinions. She can be unwelcoming to those who don't share those opinions. She was very strident a while back with 'cesters and readers who weren't watching the way she does.
OTOH, her canon characters read like my head canon, and she does great outside POV characters.

I equate Stan with the janitor in IMTOD Azazel then possessed for all of S2. I felt sorry for him when Dean was yousonofabitching him in the graveyard--I mean, just a hapless guy named Stan who got grabbed, you know? By the time YED was killed by the Colt, poor Stan had long been toast.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Julie, I think she went on an anti-slash tirade at some point. It was before I was paying attention to people in fandom.

I'm pretty sure you can look her up on Fandom Wank.
Her writing's too soft-edged, and she's a tool, therefore, I won't read her.

Yeah, I kind of agree with you about her characterisation, Plei. I haven't read any of her stuff in donkey's years.
I just got partway through a D/C BB story with no Sam. I can't work out why there's no Sam. It doesn't make any sense. The premise is that there is a reality where John never dragged Dean into hunting and the striga happened to him. Cas throws himself back into this reality and ends up his guidance counsellor in high school.

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by this?

Too... marshmallow-y? Wet? The characters are slightly more idealized than I like to see, fewer shades of grey and fewer rough edges.

For me, she's a little Hallmark card, depending on the story. Sometimes I've enjoyed her stuff here and there, but usually it's very idealized, as Plei said.
