Most of my favorite authors aren't writing SPN anymore.

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.

I'll admit she kind of shook my certainty with the ventures into Sam/Kevin and that alpha/omega kink fic, but I have confidence that when she returns to more mainstream stuff I'll be enthralled again.

That alpha/omega fic was pretty enjoyable for me. I loved her characterisation, even if my brain will never accept the biology of homosexual alpha/omega/knotting sex. It's being painted as this primal genetic need (as opposed to something that's really really fun), but there's no indication of evolutionary payoff, and part of my brain will not shut up about it.
I don't need fun to have a simple evolutionary benefit, but the way knotting and heat is painted...why else?

Yeah, the whole knotting thing is weird when it doesn't lead to breeding because ... that's what it's for.
That said, I've read a couple that were incredibly hot.
Where is this Sam/Kevin you all keep talking about? I have to read this for myself now.

I have to admit, I didn't even look. I trust scaramouche with a lot, but....I don't know if I want that in my brain.

Oh, I'm happy to have it there. That was awesome!

Tumblr's sort of spoilery today, at least if you want to know nothing about next season. People are tweeting from the panel at ComicCon.

Man, Jollysnidge has really gotten a life. I'm selfishly disappointed. She used to put out a chapter every day or two, and 80% of her fics were right in my wheelhouse. Now she only (*only*!) has two fics going, and nothing updated since the 7th. Her fanfiction.net page used to be the first fic I'd check for in the morning. She'd fuse anything with D/C--whole bunch of stuff I'd never heard of.
Totally random stories. One of the WIPs now is straight!Dean "bootlegging" porn in an AU where porn is against the law--Castiel is the performer he's hired to film (Gabriel is his distributor), and of course the lines are getting blurred. 5 chapters, but that took from April 24th to July 7th. Man, she had me so spoiled, but now she's working, studying, writing original fiction, living, all that stuff.
