I really like that, § ita §.

As for art going here, I say yes. Same for vids and other SPN fanworks, if the fic discussion resides here.

When it comes to SPN fic being kept here, a couple of years back, I made a peevish comment about keeping fic discussion out of the show thread while the show was airing. I won't say I got piled on, but people got justifiably emotional (bad memories of the Boxed Set embargo) and I got some comments and pushback that at the time made me feel like crawling into a hole and never coming out. The upshot was, many people felt strongly that their enjoyment of fic was a huge part of their enjoyment of the show, and that SPN fic discussion could overwhelm the fic thread the way SPN overwhelmed (according to some people) Boxed Set. So, keeping it all in-thread was more of a group decision. Not one I necessarily agree with, but one that I can understand and accept easily enough.

Anyhow, § ita §, assuming all things SPN stay here, any thought to the idea to opening up the fanfic thread to fanworks in general?

I like her, ita. Especially love the tats.

I'm happy to see anything SPN-related here, although I agree with Anne about the fanfic discussions a lot of the time. The really in-depth discussion of particular stories doesn't interest me because I don't read most of it, but that just comes down to skipping over it really.

I know it's not nice to laugh at people's parenting choices, but their mutual disbelief was hysterical.

That's always funny. As a non-parent. Other peoples' realities are strange to other strangers.

human Impala. Interesting that she's non-white in a lot of them.

Cause she's black. Also because a lot of humans aren't white. But my first impulse is that Baby is black, she just is. And wears silver jewelry.

(bad memories of the Boxed Set embargo)

I haven't been in that thread since. I just ... can't? Don't want to try? It was an unpleasant time, basically.

Yes, me too, Cass. I miss it sometimes, but not enough to push back against that feeling.

I'm sitting with Anne and Amy. Since I don't read the Dean/Castiel fics I find myself doing a lot of skimming.

Thanks for the compliments on the pic.

A few years ago, I think she'd have been whiter in more. I'm not complaining.

I find myself doing a lot of skimming.

Isn't that, you know, the internet? I don't think there's a thread, especially a TV-related thread, that I read every discussion in. I don't expect to. I don't have every conversation in a room, even if everyone in it is my friend. I mean...I didn't know it was a thing, I just thought it was. Everywhere. Oh.

Possibly of interest to folks here: [link]

Oh, that's why the weird crack in the asphalt. Pretty cool. Would be cooler with more bowlegs, but isn't that just SPN art?

Skimming is going to happen in every online environment. I think, though, that if the skimming happens due to something you think is off-topic, it can be annoying. In this case, though, fan works are on topic for the thread, and are integral to a lot of peoples enjoyment of the thread.

Edit: That's a great t shirt design!

I just realised how badly I need this. I need to finish it by hand drawing a devil's trap for the corners, but since I can't find a McGill one, that is the next thing on the list I want to tell complete strangers.
