Yeah, that's the ticket.

Damn, I miss that fic. God, I loved it.

When people go AU so they can unimpeded tell the storybook romance of a Hunter and his Angel then all my moorings are lost.

Translating the Winchesters into a Mafia family was very entertainingly done, and Sam was amazing.

I have gotten a strange attraction to pornstar AUs, which very rarely have any grounding in anything, but at least you can get the foreplay and conversation out of the way quickly.

Still, if Dean loves his brother deeply (but, ah, not that deeply), I can apparently swallow a lot.

(I just finished reading this straightshooter.com one for the second time. I am actually ashamed.)

Link?

I prefer hustler!Dean, but usually younger, and therefore there's no Castiel, and it's usually all angst, no porn.

Which seems horrible, written out like that.

Dean Winchester, Straight Shooter. It brought happiness. And...something.

I've seen teen hustler Dean both with canon Cas timetravelling, and therefore not really within AU, and some older businessman/younger Dean, but I'd be damned if I could track it down now.

And I do remember a pretty angsty one where Cas is in a crime family and Dean is one of their hookers. But I'm so out of the habit of bookmarking these days.

And something, huh? I can imagine.

The hustler!Dean that broke me was the one with John, where they didn't know who they were to each other -- Dean had been given up to the system after Mary and Sam, too, died in the fire .

Absolutely perfect and heartbreaking and of course squirmy because they have no idea. Not a fic for everyone, obviously. What I loved was John introducing Dean to the life of a hunter, and taking care of him in his own way.

I skimmed that one, because I wanted to know, but I didn't want to feel.

I sobbed at the end, so.

I should not be reading this fic right now. And yet.

It's kind of...distracting.

Amy, I read the hustler fic as a WIP--do you have a link for the finished fic?

A WIP? I remember it being really short. But I don't think I have the bookmark anymore. Plei might.

His heart fell into his pelvis adding its fleshy fodder to fuel the flames stoking hot in lower places.

I just had to share the purple prose.

I think I remember that Dean/John fic. It was a shorty. And barely bearable for me, which is saying a lot because Dean/John is intolerable to me.

Which makes me then think about the next new ep, whenever it may air. Because my second thought was "is she legal, and if she hadn't stated who she was, how close would Dean be to banging her?" My first thought was "do not want!".

Really, we finally get to see Dean back in the saddle, and his sex life has to be a plot point?

Then I wonder if Dean (and Sam) have been as celibate as Show shows us (proof in the lack of evidence).
