Oh, fuck. I have a bazillion fandom and real life things I need to do, but I'm just gonna spam y'all instead.
Some things that make me happy:
This video. It's a SPN gen ensemble piece, and it's made me cry every time I watch it. Thanks to
wutendeskind for the tip-off. It really gets to the heart of the show. It's set to Carbon Leaf's 'What About Everything?" and it's fantastic. Scenes from season 5, for those of you on my flist avoiding spoilers for that season.
This vid by
mithborien is also fantastic. It's wincest, and it's a really beautiful- sometimes hurty- look at the boys' relationship. The song is Rebellion (Lies, Lies) by Arcade Fire, which wouldn't be my immediate choice for an Arcade Fire Sam/Dean song, but the vidder makes it work wonderfully.
If you'd like to leave feedback for the first vid, go
here. For the second,
here.
Also happymaking:
This fic by
hateable . It's R-rated Jo/Ruby, with some stunning writing and spot-on characterization. Thanks to
bloodnfire for the tip off on that one.
lackadaisy wrote me Anna/male!Ruby porn
here. So
that's completely awesome. And, in the past 24 hours, I've also beta'd fic for
dugindeep , who wrote a lovely, incredibly achey fic about Jensen's engagement,
here(Jensen/Jared, NC-17), as well as for
akeyoftime , who wrote a short, thoughtful, funny-til-it's-not what if? about last Thursday's Supernatural. (Gen, PG-13),
here.
Then
familiardevil made a
"Love in Supernatural" picspam. Which just makes me wave my hands around in fists of glee. It's pretty and thoughtful and heartwarming. Though, warning for implied wincest.
Also, there's that "give me a character and I'll tell you my personal canon about them" meme going around. And since I'm too lazy to think of actual
facts about characters, I'm gonna shake the meme up a bit, and give you this:
Name a character in any fandom that I'm in, and I will tell you why I love them.All characters are invited. Yes,
stubbel , even Castiel. I've decided the best way to handle things I don't like in my fandoms is to concentrate on what I do like about them. Or maybe I'm still on an endorphin high from Thursday. WHO KNOWS.
For those of who would like to be told why I love
you, that post is still
here. And there's still time to get a Christmas card from me
here. Sign ups for the
samdeanexchange and
spn_fs_exchange are also still open.
Finally, to wrap up this hellishly long post, have some crack beneath the cut.
That's all for now folks. Possibly I'll make as "THIS IS REAL LIFE" post later this week.
Possibly I will actually finish a real fic and post that. Miracles, miracles. Wish me luck on my (second) math midterm Thursday. <3
ETA: I've been considering making a Master Fic List, but I'm not sure if I want to clutter up my lj like that/if that would be kind of, idk, vain? on my part. XD What think you, o'flist?
Eh. Put a Master Fic list up. Can be found here.
Trees outside the window and a big band sound that makes you feel like
everything's okay,
a feeling that lasts for one song maybe,
the parentheses all clicking shut behind you.
The way we move through time and space, or only time.
The way it's night for many miles, and then suddenly
and you're standing in the shower for over an hour,
I will keep watch. I will water the yard.
Knot the tie and go to work. Unknot the tie and go to sleep.
that I would never say. I say them very quietly.
the click and flash of cigarettes
being smoked on the lawn, and just a little kiss before we say goodnight.
It spins like a wheel inside you: green yellow, green blue,
It's simple: it isn't over, it's just begun. It's green. It's still green.
