I want a Supernatural video game. Something old school SNES side scroller style.  But most importantly, I want it to start out with Sam as the playable character, and then Dean becomes a playable character, and then you can switch back and forth. When Castiel shows up in the game, he’s not a playable character, he’s a special attack that Dean can summon.  And Sam’s special attack would have something to do with his demon blood powers.  And then around the season 6 era, SURPRISE! CAS becomes the playable character for a while, and then for the rest of the game, you can switch between the three of them except during story beats where it has to be one of them specifically.

There’s a whole Wayward DLC too.

This whole backlash against printing fics irks the fuck out of me, and I got some shit to say about it. Mostly "Fuck You" but here's some nuance:

On the surface, I understand where the naysayers are coming from. It's a legitimate fear that making a profit from fanworks will bring down the C&D Hammer on fandom. I get that. Do not put on the One Ring, or you'll risk the Eye of Sauron.

But here's the thing. Fuck capitalism. Fuck digital only. We're living in the digital dark ages, and 100 years from now huge swathes of our history, fact and fiction, will be lost to our descendants because there will be no physical copies of our lives for them to find in old libraries and boxes in the attic, etc.

Creators deserve physical copies of their creations, and so do the other people in the world who love them.

I don't want to profit from letting people print my fics. That's why I use Lulu, since they have an option to set zero profit and make the links hidden so only fans in the know can get a copy. Other printing sites I've looked at in the past don't have those options. In fact, the first time I ever even thought about printing one of my stories was when I won NaNo for the first time and one of the prizes was a coupon for 3 free printings of your story. HELL YEAH, that's a copy for me, a copy for my beta, and a copy for the artist who made the cover for me. Perfect! But I ended up not using that coupon, because the site required I set a profit margin, and did not have an option to make it private. Ummm, no thanks. Not worth the risk. And even though the profit margin could be set as low as ten cents, I did not want to make ANY money from my fic, because I know that would be breaking Fair Use rules. I found Lulu instead, and decided to let other people get copies too, because I'm nice. And if I don't, it's not like I can stop them from doing it themselves, no matter how much I'd rather they not do that.

But that's not good enough for the Reporting Trolls. Their argument is that it's not possible for it to be completely profit free, since Lulu makes a profit on the printing costs and the shipping carriers make a profit off the shipping costs. Someone is making a profit, and that's unacceptable, even if that someone is not Me, The Person Who Made The Printing and Shipping Worth Paying For.

I would like anyone who thinks that to delete your accounts where you read fanfiction. AO3, Wattpad, FFNet, LJ, Dreamwidth, hell even Tumblr for the short ficlet stuff that only gets posted here. Because even if the website it self isn't profiting, (AO3 for example), the companies that sold them their server hardware made a profit. Since utilities are privatized, the electric company that runs those servers are making a profit. IF YOU PRINT IT ON YOUR PRINTER AND PUT IT IN A 3 RING BINDER, the paper, printer, and ink manufacturers made a profit from your dinky little print out. The companies that build all the parts for your computer or your smartphone made a profit on your portal to the internet, who profits from your monthly subscription, just like your electric company profits from the power it takes to run your pc or charge your phone battery. IT'S A SLIPPERY FUCKING SLOPE, AND YOU NEED TO LEARN WHEN TO BACK AWAY FROM THE LEDGE.

We live in a Capitalist Hellscape, and if a company could figure out how to charge you to breathe and for every single beat of your heart, they'd fucking do it. So get off your goddamn high horses with this "wELL SoMEonE iS makINg PrOFit" bullshit. Or if you truly believe that, shut off every account you own, turn off your utilities, and go live in the woods and make up your own goddamn stories, which you can only share orally to the local wildlife. They give kudos by biting you and giving you rabies.

(not to mention; these assholes don't go after fanartists who are ABSOLUTELY making a profit off their work. but noooo, Flirty can't format a fic for print and allow other people to pay for the printing service and shipping, while never seeing a penny of that herself, despite all of the GODDAMN WORK I HAVE PUT INTO IT, WRITING IT IN THE FIRST PLACE INCLUDED FUCK YOU VERY MUCH. fuckyoufuckyoufuckyoufuckyoufucky--)

Good Touches: A list compiled by Martin K. Blackwood

Hold his scarred hand. He can still feel the warmth.

Brush the wispy hairs escaping his bun from the back of his neck to get a soft smile.

The wrinkle on his forehead will smooth out if you kiss it.

Kissing his face anywhere has the same effect. Also brings out a smile. Especially lots of kisses right in a row.

Run your fingers through his hair after he takes it down before bed, and he’ll push against your hand like a cat.

(collect more evidence that Jon Is Actually A Cat)

Pull his feet into your lap. Ignore his protests, don’t tickle, just hold them till he relaxes.

That little space at the base of his spine, just below the waistband? Pet it.  Kiss it. Yes, that’s probably purring you hear.

(Jon IS Actually A Cat)

He’ll pretend to sleep if you nudge him onto his belly and stroke his spine.

On a good day, you can trace his scars. Remind him that he’s beautiful so that he has more good days.

Bisexual is an important word to me.  Queer is an important word to me.  Aro-spec is an important word to me.  Identities can be multi-faceted, and those facets sparkle in my heart :)

Awww, I missed the 10 year anniversary of the first fic I ever posted by about a week.  But WOW 10 years?  I can’t believe it.  It doesn’t feel that long, and somehow it feels like forever.

When I had this idea, it was just going to be a short little thing, a single chapter, just over a thousand words.  Longficitis hit me early on though, because this thing was 72k? Written in 2 months?? Damn lol

I just re-read that first chapter, and you know what I’m still kinda proud of it.

Thanks for being a grumpy bastard that makes me want to give you reasons to smile, Fenris.  And thanks to everyone who gave that little idea love and attention, and for encouraging me to keep going.  Writing IS the best thing in my life, and I’m so grateful to be doing it and to have people to share it with :)

If you call him "Cass" I will not read your fic, reblog your post, or give you any interaction with your creation.

I love you prompts:

When the broken glass litters the floor

and

A whisper in the ear.

*crackles knuckles* Okay, let’s do this. 14+17  (Also on AO3)

“C’mon, Cas,” Dean murmurs against the stubbled slope of Castiel’s throat.  He nips at Castiel’s adam’s apple, smiling softly as it bobs under his lips.  “Say it again.”

Ever since that first confession, before Castiel was pulled into the Empty, before Dean dragged him back out, Dean has craved hearing it again.  He doesn’t have to ask for it; Cas reads him like an open book and he knows when Dean needs to hear it.  But Dean asks anyway. 

And Castiel always indulges him when he does.  Dean has now heard it hundreds of times.  Pressed into his skin when they’re curled together in Dean’s bed, announced loud and proud in mixed company, and in every language Castiel knows.

Except one.

“Dean, I don’t want to hurt you,” Castiel murmurs into his hair.  He nuzzles at the strands, because he’s a fucking weirdo, and he likes the way Dean’s hair smells when they’re all sweaty and gross after sex.  “The last time I tried, I nearly ruptured your eardrums.”

“Then say it quiet, Cas.”  Dean stretches in the sheets, deliberately rubbing his body against his angel’s.  He runs a toe back and forth over the top of Castiel’s foot, and tightens his arms around Castiel’s waist. 

For a moment, he thinks Cas is going to refuse to say it for the first time since Dean started asking.  Disappointment bubbles up in Dean’s throat, but he takes a breath to tell him it’s okay, he doesn’t have to--

Castiel dips his head down, and his lips brush against the shell of Dean’s ear.  He takes a breath, and then--

A long time ago, Jimmy described being possessed by an angel to being strapped to a comet.  It seemed like an exaggeration, until Dean had housed an archangel inside him and felt the power of stars coursing through his body at the atomic level. 

Comets and stars are mere candles next to the super nova that explodes inside Dean’s mind as Castiel whispers his love in Enochian, using his true voice.

Love can be a kind of possession, in a way.

Distantly, Dean is aware of every piece of glass in the room shattering.  Of the room flashing too bright before plunging into darkness as lightbulbs overheat and burst.  He hears glass tinkling to the floor, as Castiel’s grace flows through him, healing the damage to his ears. 

And then he hears Sam’s shout of alarm muffled through the doorway of his bedroom.  The bunker’s electrical system is probably fucked to hell now, and Dean’s going to have a bitch of a time fixing all of that.

He smiles into the darkness.  “I love you too, Cas.”

He doesn’t remember when it started. 

It was probably late on movie night, when he’d been dozing off with his head pillowed on Castiel’s thigh while one of his favorite characters rattled off their catch phrase.  His eyes closed, his breathing slow and deep, and his awareness drifting away.  And then the featherlight drag of fingers over the bridge of his nose and across the curve of his cheek. 

But that might have been a dream.  Whereas he clearly remembers closing his eyes while he caught his breath and the sweat dried on his skin.  His limbs still entangled with Castiel’s.  Their skin sticking together, the heat where they touch building to an uncomfortable level that will eventually drive them to separate.  But the buzz under his skin increases when Castiel traces invisible shapes over his forehead before petting down over his nose, and following the line of his lips.

It becomes a thing though. Castiel loves to touch his face.  Any time they’re relaxing together, Dean closes his eyes, and the angel starts petting him.  He asks about it once, and feels his skin warm under Castiel’s touch when the answer is a simple I’m playing connect the dots with your freckles.

The sap.

Tonight the touch is different.  Castiel’s fingertip strokes under his eyes and gently pet his eyelids, but it lingers at the corners.  He frowns when he realizes what Castiel is focusing on.

Forty is in his rear view, and his crows feet have gotten a lot more obvious lately when he bothers to glance in a mirror.

“Cas...” he starts to warn, “stop reminding me that I’m getting old.”

“These lines are a measurement of how much you’ve smiled and laughed, not how many years it took for them to add up into something visible,” Castiel murmurs.

Dean’s eyes pop open. His head is in Castiel’s lap again, so he gets a view of the angel smiling down at him.  He reaches up and rubs his thumbs over the crow’s feet at the corner of Castiel’s eyes.  They deepen as Castiel’s smile widens.

And okay yeah, he can see what Castiel sees.  He’s not going to admit it though.  He smiles back, and leans up on his elbows for a kiss.  Then he settles back down, head pillowed on Castiel’s thigh, and closes his eyes so the petting can commence.

I wish I was stupidly rich so I could afford to hire fic writers to write things specifically for me. Like a rich renaissance Italian being a patron for Leonardo or whatever. Just put these folks on my payroll and give them a living wage and insurance, just write me fics.

You know, we probably hit 100k destiel fics a while ago, but a lot of stuff has been deleted over the years.  Let’s all take a moment to remember the fallen in our battle for ao3 fandom dominance...
