omg but this sounds SO good seriously!!!

Right? One of my favorite things is AUs where everything is the same except for this one, tiny little difference (like vampires are totally a thing and everyone knowing about it) because it’s a fun game to go backwards and figure out how human society would be the same and different and how people would actually deal with it.

Me: Okay, which WIP should I work on now? 

Writer Brain: You know what would be fun? 

Me: What’s that? 

Writer Brain: An arranged marriage au with vampires.

Me:…Brain…

WB: Yeah, like, where vampires were evolved alongside humans as a separate but similar species, like Neanderthals. 

Me: No Brain. We already have so many things to think about. 

WB: Of course the vampires would live past above the Arctic circle and their culture and customs would be completely different from regular humans. Maybe they feed on polar bears. 

Me: Stop it! 

WB: And we’d have to have a time period. We already have two AUs with monarchies so maybe we leave that out this time. Modern day might not work. Actually maybe vampires live where the sun isn’t out all the time but where polar bears are don’t live, like Washington. Polar bears would probably kill vampires pretty easy. 

Me: *head desks repeatedly* 

I feel this so hardcore right now.

Werewolves show up and take over a BDSM fetish club that a vampire was using as his feeding grounds. Hilarity ensues. 

God help the over-active imagination.

I know I shouldn’t be encouraging the overactive imagination, but that sounds fun. 

Home or Something like it!

Home or Something Like It is my Deanjimstiel A/B/O wip currently on Ao3! It will be updated (possibly even with the last three chapters all at once) soon. (I am just super not used to writing so much smut in one fic and it’s rough.) 

It’s a porn-is-the-plot fic in which Dean, an omega, moves into suite-style dorms at college and meets twins Jimmy, a strangely territorial omega, and Castiel, an oddly passive alpha. The PoV alternates between the three and their varying levels of awareness about what’s going on and why they’re so interested in each other. And yes, they boink like bunnies.

Oooh that sounds fun, but I totally get what you mean about getting stuck on a lot of smut in one fic. 

And this sounds like something right up @reallyelegantsharkfish ‘s alley! Thanks for sharing!

*perks up*

@rosemoonweaver can you confirm no mpreg in this? 😀 

No mpreg but it is discussed in terms of how impossible it would be for Cas and Jimmy to have a child and later mentioned in reference to birth control. No one actually gets pregnant but it is mentioned twice I think.

LMAO. You might not remember but I’ve used the tag too. I really really really want it to become an actual tag on ao3 ��

I know you have! Because you hope that one day when fandoms wonder “why the hell is this a tag? who started this?” they’ll look back at all the fics tagged in ao3 and see my user name at the bottom. Future generations will look back in awe at what will have become my greatest accomplishment. 

samanddeaninpanties replied to your post “So here’s the thing about headcanons (because some people don’t seem…”

Read your tags – people seriously think the autistic!Jack headcanon is problematic?! I s2g that word gets thrown around so much (‘problematic’) it’s lost all meaning.

Yup. There was one post the OP responded to that was incredibly long and “I know what I’m talking about, I work with autistic people” about how it was “spreading stereotypes” and “generalizing” and “problematic”. Which… if you read the post, you’d know OP themselves was autistic and was basing a lot of their headcanon off their own symptoms and relating to Jack in that way. But you know… that’s problematic, I guess. 

This is slightly tangential, but I’m honestly starting to get really irritated with how creators are and aren’t allowed to portray neuroatypical and/or mentally ill people in their own creations. Like, yes, I understand that we don’t want to make out like it’s always a bad thing or a burden or w/e but a) that gif set wasn’t even doing that and b) it isn’t always peaches and cream. Not everything is a stereotype when it comes to mental struggles, sometimes it’s just a common symptom. And sometimes people who struggle with it do feel like their symptoms are a pain in the ass and prevent them from doing what they want, and they should be allowed to express that, too, without being blamed for demonizing themselves. There is a difference between portraying things in a negative light and blaming the neurodivergence and showing a less than sunny side of the neurodivergence without blaming anyone or anything for the behavior. 

But that’s the end of that little rant. Basically, I’m tired of seeing anything and everything being turned into a giant fucking problem even when it’s ovbious that was never the intent.
