B, N, and O!

B – A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.
Sastiel, actually. I hadn’t considered it until I started talking more to you because it was something I more brotp-ed but there’s a lot of potential there. I credit you with getting me to consider and ship it. 

N – Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).
Sex worker positive fics where no one needs to be “saved” from their profession. 
Alternate canon where story threads that were dropped are really delved into. (Particularly with SPN) 
Creature fics. 

O – Choose a song at random. Which ship or character does it remind you of?
Fistfight by The Ballroom Thieves is such a reylo song. Good god. 

The day I finally met you like I knew I would

You raised me from the wreck of my doubt

You were smiling to yourself as if we both understood

The silent language of the anguish of a heart that sings but doesn’t make a sound 
What did I do to deserve you? 
How did you find me? 
I was already halfway gone 
You were a bright light 
You were a fistfight, oh 

Like, damn I couldn’t’ve picked that better if I tried. 

Thanks! 

Alphabet Asks! 

@samanddeaninpanties replied to your post “@samanddeaninpanties replied to your post “.” Apparently they have A…”

Just because it’s not new doesn’t mean it can’t be a reason. I lose followers all the time from either 1) wincest 2) sastiel or 3) personal posts. None of these things are new but they are what drives my followers away the fastest

Oh oh!! There’s another option: some people unfollow if you haven’t followed them after X amount of weeks or months.

I guess people don’t look through the common tags blogs use? Or scroll through the blog? That’s odd if they don’t but… eh. 

Also it could be the non-mutual-ness thing. That’s possible. 

9 Questions Tag

I was tagged by @threshie! Thanks! 

Rules: Answer the 9 questions then tag 9 people you want to get to know better.

Relationship status: Blissfully Unattached 

Favorite color: Purple 

Top Three Ships: Oh lord. I’m a multishipper who can never make up her mind so as of this moment right now I’m going with Reylo, Destiel, and Sastiel. Those are my faves right now. That might change next week though. 

Lipstick or Chapstick: Lipstick. Chapstick annoys me most of the time.

Last song you listened to: The Ballad of Mona Lisa by Panic! At the Disco

Currently reading: Nothing at the moment. Writing is my priority right now. I’ve been snacking on fanfic in between writing sessions, though. 

Last movie you watched: Dirty Dancing. It’s a guilty pleasure. 

Tagging: @gneisscastiel @gabrielthemoose @oddsocksandstuff @nox-lee @omgbubblesomg and whoever else wants to do this one! 

Fic title: Caught in the Undertow

Sastiel AU with selkie!Cas. 

Sam has been apprehensive about the ocean since the tragic storm that killed his wife all those years ago. Most days, he stays ashore, assisting the fishermen who come to the docks by carrying their loads and doing maintenance on their ships. That is, until one day when he finds a man, naked, wandering the beach, lost and alone. The man doesn’t speak, and Sam decides to take him in and care for him. He and his mute companion form a friendship and over the years he learns that his companion is much less human than he originally thought and together they must regain Cas’s skin from the woman who stole it (going with April, here). But once Cas has his skin, will Sam have the heart to let him go after all these years? 

Send me a title, I’ll tell you what I’d write!

Sastiel or Sam/Max?

Sastiel. 

As much as I love Sam/Max there’s a lot to work with when it comes to Sam and Cas. Like I can make Max anything I want because he’s not really in much of the canon so that’s fun, but Sam and Cas… like, Cas is the only angel who doesn’t look at him with disdain. He didn’t see Sam as inherently evil just because of the issues he had. And Sam’s stupid smile at Cas sometimes. It’s just fucking cute! 

Make me choose between two things!

They’re just too fluffy for me. The few I’ve read never have anything happen in them. I need some kind of drama or I’m gonna lose interest fast. I am almost 1000% sure I will never write one.

@rosemoonweaver I was following someone that once reblogged a post and put in their tags that they didn’t understand why all fics weren’t just happy and fluffy because fanfic is a happy place in a sad world. Like, more power to you for your decision person – you read your fluff and happy endings, no skin off my teeth – but to me?

Fanfic is a happy place but it’s also a form of entertainment and I expect to be entertained, you know? Give me some drama and angst and a hopeful ending (or even a heartbreaking ending or cliffhanger – I just want to be intrigued!). 

The only real “traditional” one I wrote was my Sam/Jess/Brady and I used it for RSCC anti-valentine’s day. It was like 1k of dull, boring, tooth rotting fluff that I still dislike because I feel like nothing happened

If all fic was happy and fluffy I wouldn’t be reading or writing it tbh. I’m 100% with you there. I love a happy ending, but make it worth it. Give me some heartache, some mystery, some danger, just something. 

I can only maintain interest in something fluffy for about 1.5k  without feeling the need to have something else happen. I think that’s the perfect  length for a slice of life fic, which is the perfect place for fluff for me. But I cannot maintain enthusiasm much longer than that. 

lbr though, nothing actually happens in a coffee shop au ever. Unless you make the coffee shop like, idk, a cover for some kind of illegal outfit, it’s gonna be tooth rotting fluff. 

Oh my god coffeeshop AU/mafia AU – this needs to be written. 

Jimmy and Castiel Novak are a couple of sweet guys running a super cute coffee shop in the middle of the city. But what no one knows is that they’re using the coffeeshop as a cover for drug smuggling for the local mafia family. Detective Dean Winchester might be getting close to cracking the case – if those twins would just stop feeding him their delicious lattes and cakes… 

Oh my god, yes, please! I need that!

Ahaha I would read the hell out of it, but I’ve never even considered writing a mafia fic before lol.

lol. It could be fun, though. You might enjoy it… 

I’ve never had much interest in the mafia in general, I wouldn’t do it justice. Plus I’ve never really written dcj – Honestly there’s a ton of other authors that’d do it better – y’all are free to take the idea and run with it.

That’s fair. If you’re not interested writing a whole fic is probably not a good idea. 

Just gonna throw this out there, though, but dcj shippers tend to be… excitable is a good word for it. If you ever did want to try your hand at it we’d be very appreciative. Just sayin’. 

Yes! I didn’t mean to imply I’d never write it – I want to write DCJ sooooo badly. I’d just rather dip my toes in at first – I’m thinking of writing them for one of my kink bingo squares actually, I just need to decide which.

😀 *is very excited* 

Now, I’m intrigued. Any particular ones you’re leaning towards? 

Well I’m kinda leaning toward objectification (bottom/sub Dean). But I have voyeurism which would be fun too – but I have a great Wincest idea for that so I’m super torn on that square. And then there’s finger sucking which would also work for DCJ bottom/sub Dean – but again – that one I’m leaning more toward Wincest with bottom/sub Sam or even Sastiel/past Wincestiel while Dean’s a demon – Sam kinda regresses and sometimes can’t sleep without sucking Cas’ fingers – less a kink for that one and more just angst.

All of those sound awesome! 

I’m pretty partial to voyeurism with Wincest myself, but that’s just my opinion. Also, I dig the idea of sastiel/past wincestiel with all that angst. I’d be interested to see whatever you wind up writing though, for all of those squares. 

Yeah, that’s kinda my thought. But objectification is up in the air, I just know it’s going to be subby Dean getting dressed up like a human doll and completely objectified in public by whoever his Dom(s) is/are.

At some point (aka once I get off my lazy ass and finish this part of Four’s Company) I’m going to release my whole card. And I think when I do, I’m going to make a list of the kinks I have no pairing in mind for (cause a few are like… screaming a certain ship, others I’m just ??? on), and then put up a list of ships I’d like to try writing (like DCJ or Mick/Ketch or even ones I don’t write enough like Destiel) and see what my readers think would be fun. Not for requests, but just to kinda maybe get the creative juices flowing. Maybe do the same with the ships on the card that I don’t know what kinks would work best.

That’s a good idea! (Both the objectification and the card thing.) I might have to steal that idea for my polybingo card. There are some squares I know what I’m gonna do with (or have mostly written) but others, like firefighter au or sam/cas/balthazar are totally drawing blanks for me. If I was more organized I’d be finished with it or closer to done but I’m a hot mess.

Ha!!!! I just know you and you know me. The idea seemed like something you’d be into. The whole nontraditional abo thing is fun to explore. And yesssssss! Exactly. It’s like Sam is able to find redemption and forgiveness in Cas (even though he doesn’t need it). A ship like that definitely leads to all the feels. In order to make it non-fluffy you basically gotta go with an alternate version of Sam. Example: soulless!Sam, boyking!Sam… Or maybe he’s the soulless!boyking?

It’s definitely my thing. lol. Give me alphas who enjoy being penetrated or beta and omegas who prefer penetrating any day of the week. Also, alpha/alpha, omega/omega, alpha/alpha/omega, basically anything that isn’t traditional. 

Can you imagine soulless!boyking!Sam. That’s a fucking scary ass thought. I’m kinda into it.
