Day 6 of the Fandom Snowflake Challenge.
Jan. 7th, 2012 12:36 pmLittle bit behind here, I'll post day 7 later probably. I'm actually still working on Day 5 :P
In your own space, rec at least 3 fanworks you thought you wouldn't like (because they weren't your fandom or they pushed against your boundaries or you thought you just wouldn't be interested) and that you ended up loving.
Asunder
Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. (Matthew 19:6). [Dean/Castiel].
I started with this one for one main reason. It is the only fic in my bookmark that fully fits the challenge. I chose this fic because I do not ship Dean/Castiel. In fact, I have moral issues with Dean/Cas (though if you ship it, I don't care, that's your business, not mine, I also have no moral high ground considering I ship Sam/Dean). However, I decided to give this one a go because the problem I have with Dean/Cas is eradicated via the fact it's an AU. And. I fell in love. It's a gorgeous fic and I was genuinely surprised by how much I love it, considering Sam and Dean are my OTP in both the romantic and platonic sense and they can barely stand each other in this fic. I'd definietly recommend it, whether or not it's your ship.
Masqueraded as a cold pillow.
Sam and Jess and Dean and combinations thereof. Hard R.
I wanted to rec a different Sam/Jess/Dean fic, but this one was the first I read, so I chose this one. It's an interesting pairing (what do you call a pairing with 3 people o_o) and I wasn't sure I'd like it - I'm not rabid about people "getting in the way of my ship" but yk, it's my ship, I prefer to read it the way it is. But this is an interesting dynamic. I've got a lot of feelings about Sam/Dean/Jess, and if you'd like the fic I wanted to rec, let me know. It's amazing.

Dean gets himself bound to gremlins. Hilarious crack fic and oh lord, he makes the gremlins hats.
I chose this one because I don't read crack, not really. I write it, sure - Harry Potter/Glee crossovers, anyone? - but I don't read it. I'm not a...frivolous reader. Most of the fics in my bookmarks are plotty and angsty and there are a lot of AU's because I want ALL OF THE ANGST. I don't want a five minute fix and then I've got to find another fic again, I want something that I can read for hours and that'll stay with me for just as long.
But this one is incredibly funny :p
As always, I'm totally open for discussion! If you want to know why I don't like Dean/Cas, go ahead and ask! I'd actually really like to discuss that - with people who ship it and people who don't. Let's talk about Jess! I like talking, okay? <3 And as always, your ship won't be bashed, and neither will your opinions. Even if you really have a thing for Sam/Leviathan vore.
