It's really sad how he explains that there are writers on staff called Carver and Edlund, and the fan who'd mentioned it is all "ooookay, then". Ah, well.
It's not like all ficwriters have a lock on canon. I just read a Sam PoV fic which needed Ameripicking something awful (no arse, ever...just no), but this:
When someone comes back from the dead you have to shoot them with salt, douse them with holy water and cut them with iron. If they pass all of these tests you tie them to a chair and try to exercise the demon out of them just in case
HAVE YOU SEEN THE SHOW??? WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN? Like, how many shots at goal are you going to take and still not score? Okay--I'll give them the dousing with holy water, although I say drinking is the preferred answer. ½ point, then.
Jilli, don't ask me how I know this, but it started with, um, Harley/Jensen, and moved into werewolf fic. IDEK.
I do not get the knotting fics. I just don't. Plei has "kindly" linked me to some in multiple fandoms, and the whole thing just makes me tilt my head and go "buh?".
Did I send you Omegaverse in multiple fandoms, or just in Beeblock?
It's a guilty pleasure. I've got a thing for John Watson, Bad Ass Quiet Alpha. IT IS A THING.
I thought you had sent me multiple fandoms, but my brain may have shorted out from confusion.
I just got an email about GIWishes email. I guess they are doing it again
I think I'll enjoy the scavenger hunt from the sidelines this year. I did have fun with it last year, but it was a little frustrating not having the energy to contribute as much as I would have liked.
I wonder about the team organization this year
Wait--so if this year is bigger than last year, does that mean those of you with a Guinness world record won't have one any more?
Well, fuck, that's one more year than I'll ever have. Good onya all.
I do not get the knotting fics. I just don't.
Where did that whole AU concept come from, for one thing? Did some fic writer come up with it, and everyone glommed onto it?
Jilli, from what I've seen, on the various kink memes there was a huge response to bestiality prompts, particularly for the Jensen/Harley prompts, as Beverly said. And lo, people went beserk. Although some people were squicked by the the bestiality part they apparently enjoyed the knotting part, because they eased on into alpha/omega/beta fiction (and don't ask me to explain the difference). That can take place with them as shapeshifters, so in animal form, or as humans, but who have knots. They get to go in heat and all kinds of interesting things. The overriding kink seems to be that the knot hurts so good going in... it hurts, of course, but then it presses against the prostate and is held in place for a lengthy amount of time. It has turned into a whole subset of fiction like mpreg and wingfic. I scroll on by all of them, but to each their own.
Huh. The knotting stories I've read, the knot doesn't go in. It doesn't swell up until they're already in and are about to ejaculate. But I'm hardly seasoned in the trope.
Other fandoms have it, though--I'm assuming it would have leaked into here somehow, given...given everything.
I know I've seen this around, but I don't remember which around, so I apologise if I'm reposting here--my vision is blurry again and it's hard to read: [link] Brian Buckley video with Jared and Gen.
