Isn't it? I barely even dabbled before ita started talking about them!

I don't know whose fault it is. Just that it's NOT MINE. Or something.

Totally sucked in to strangeandcharm's Thursday's Child now, ita. Thanks?

I...can't read Dean/Castiel. I don't know why.

I like Cas fine, when he's not being a comic foil. The farther I can separate his character from Misha, the better I like them both. It's cut down tremendously on my fic reading, avoiding the Castiel/Dean.

I'm not averse to slash--far from it. But in SPN, basically I just want to read casefic. Good casefic where Sam is some recognizable version of Sam, and Dean is recognizably Dean, and I'm good. Pre-series, Weechesters, Old, retired hunter Winchesters, just Sam & Dean being themselves. Hunting things and saving people a bonus.

Like Allyson, I have no magic in my spleen.

Go, Jen, go! I make no apologies for Thursday's Child! Total H/C whumpage!

Theoretically I like straight up SPN casefic, but I find it so rarely well done, because the MOTW are so often lame. Which then shifts the focus onto the relationships--the Weechester part of it, or the relationship-of-the-week. Which, mostly slash, since how do you keep the ladies from actually interrupting the hunting?

(I just read some deaged!Dean where Sam got married, and I was miffed! How dare he! Turns out he lied to her and kept hunting, which not nice, and that was bothersome too, because the author never really dealt with that)

I...can't read Dean/Castiel. I don't know why.

I'd say he's an angel and maybe it should be different but then they went and sexed Anna up with Dean. So basically it appears that I just don't buy actual canon and my angels might get all *complicated* with the boys, but it's not a fall into bed thing for me. Well, for them. For me? I'd totally bed a Winchester or two.

Yeah, reading SPN is rough going for me. But the good ones are so, so worth it.

The only SPN death that I am in such denial about is Ellen. And that's not actual denial, just I dug her so much and I wish she weren't dead.

Reading too fast is dangerous. I caught "Ellen" "dug her so much" and I went to a zombie place.

I have read Misha slash but Cas slash has had no pull for me. I guess that means they are separate to me.

Cas fixating on his charge in a way that has no human analog makes total sense to me. He's dome tremendous things for this man, and their relationship is otherworldly. He will die for him: rule 1) in a Winchester relationship. And the guy on the other end of the relationship is Deano. The man who can pervert anything. Who can pull so hard on his side of any relationship, who can demand to see it in his terms because he doesn't see how he could believe it. Who needs to be beaten to within an inch of his life, to see raw pain, as opposed to a smile and an outstretched hand.

Coupled with a falling angel who doesn't know what love is and doesn't believe he's allowed to love, that this must be some sort of thing he's not allowed to do, that this is either dirty and shameful, or a sign of how important a step it is to take, how kinda freaky it is that he can transfer his imprint from God to Big D Winchester. But this time he wants response.

It needs to start off all desperate and messed up. Because the emotional charge is pretty much on the paper. But where from there? Terror. Denial. Stolen drunk kisses. Lying to each other. Terror of abandonment,

And, if you have my favourite ingredient, a Sam tearing his hair out in frustration at the two crazy kids.

Dammit.

I humbly request your recs...

Because the way you explain it, yes.

Cass, have you hit my small Dean/Cas tag up?

Oooh, didn't realize you had one. Awesome.
