jeez...
Because I'm a horrible angst/pain/woe-they-are-broken lover(hell, I wouldn't be watching SPN if I didn't I guess?), I actually check out the tags for such at
spnstoryfinders. And somehow I stumbled across the Suite!verse by leonidaslion. Holy shit, that stuff is fucking brutal. I really need to stop getting so attached to fictional characters in a very fictional world, because that hurts. Literally.
Arg.
Seriously, if you haven't read it...don't. Because it's written perfectly and the characters are still themselves at the core and the story is twisty and intriguing and it pulls you in and never lets you go...but unless you like everything broken for long periods of time, a completely evil Sam who has no qualms doing whatever he likes, a broken and pretty near-unrecognizable Dean, a world that's been fucked to hell, explicitness(in every way you'd imagine), and buckets of general hard-core angst, avoid it.
If you have read it...commiserate with me? It doesn't help that I mainlined 200k of it in two days and then went back for the rest. Dear lord, I can be crazy sometimes.
As a consolation, feed me happy fluffity marshmellows of happiness? I'm gonna go watch the copy of Elf my brother recorded for me in an attempt to feel better.
In other news, I'm fiddling with DW and seeing if I can get the icons to sync up even a little bit. Fingers crossed.
Oh! Mission Impossible. In short, it was awesome. In long, it was pretty damn awesome. It wasn't as gory as he last one, but it didn't lose any of the action for it. The plot wasn't incredibly complicated, it just had a lot of points to it, which I like in a good action movie. They did a good job with the grooming Jeremy Renner bit too, as Tom Cruise is finally showing his age and Ethan Hunt is finally feeling pretty friggin world-weary. His character got backstory and motive and it was pretty good. Brad Bird did an amazing job with the directing, and I expected no less from him. It was clearly his own style, and I liked that.
Basically, go, see it. Jane's character has a few issues to deal with, but, in the end, to me, that's par for the course. I'd say this one's the best since the original; possibly even better than that. The mission actually felt impossible for the first time since the first movie, that's for sure.
I guess I should go and work on my erasure and maybe some of my HAS program...aw, shit. Looks like my enter key isn't working. UGH.

SUITE!VERSE
SUITE!VERSE
As a mostly evil person I eat that shit up, but yeah, basically, OW. I just reread it all a few weeks ago. And see weirdly enough, I'd say her Beserker!verse creeps me out more because Sam is still Sam, just a bit more amoral. Suite!verse Sam- I follow Dean and his crazy mood swing interpretation of him. I have no clue to how it's going to end up, which makes me love it even more. All the love for Boy King Sam. There's not enough of that and I have no idea why.
/i am a bad person /yeah
Also I hope a D/C version of this comes out of dc_dystopia. Unless one already exists?
ELF IS THE MOST HAPPY OF ALL THE HAPPY. It's pure sugar and joy and a perfect detox from Suite!verse.

Oh dear lord, I don't think I could handle something similar with actual moral ambiguity in any way. It would break me and my brain.
A D/C version *whimpers* The only thing that comes to mind is
That's exactly what I need. DETOX

ooo I love both of those, especially Bone. I love Stockholm Syndrome in fic. /horrible person /you go watch Elf while I sit here and contemplate being horrible
no subject
Bone was pretty much the first dark, darkfic I read, I think. I was so leery of the whole genre because the show was dark enough for me. Hey look, I showed them.
I love SS in fic too. And then the return(Lima Syndrome?) is equally interesting. I never used to like fucked up relationships, before...seriously. I never used to slash before this show, either. Or have any kinks whatsoever. It's totally broken my normal person sensibilities.
but on a happier note! ELF WAS AWESOME. I finally get what people are referencing when they speak of someone sitting on a throne of lies. \o/
Buddy kinds reminds me of Cas, actually, if you replace his cheer with focus and his happiness with devotion. That or everything reminds me of this show, now...

LOL, this fandom was like, hello, have some kinks. I'd read some mild stuff in Harry Potter fandom, but it was rarely front and center. I got into supernatural for the domestic Dean/Cas fics and stayed for the kinky, consensual issue insest. Love it.
Buddy as Cas oh my god. It's like if heaven was actually the north pole. "Castiel the angel, what's your favorite color?" xD I suddenly need this in my life
no subject
Damn you, I know what's next on my list...I was always very vanilla with my het...hell, I wouldn't even read porn for anything but a couple of pairings. Suddenly I'm in SPN and it's like "HERE YOU KNOW YOU LOVE THE HALF-DOZEN KINK MEMES. OH, YOU DIDN'T HAVE ANY? HERE, PLENTY TO GO AROUND! INCEST FOR EVERYONE!"
*sigh*
afdjklsjkl IKR. What if he goes ice-skating with Dean and gets a kiss and floats into his dad's work the next day on cloud nine while Chuck is trying to pitch this new book series he's working on...
somebody stop me. XD

This, of course, just makes Dean's brother and co-worker, Sam, laugh and want to befriend Cas even more. Shenanigans ensue.

After realizing he's not a Cupid, Cas leaves to find God on earth just in time for valentines day, finds true love and spreads valentine cheer
