Romanticism is overrated.

[caithream]

Okay, so, uh. Just for the record, because I'm not necessarily a fan of slash, Wincest or otherwise (I KNOW, I'm like, that .0001% of the population, whatever, it does nothing for me, SORRY), you all do realize that I'd NEVER consider ousting you guys or, UH, go so far as to tell you NOT TO BE, RIGHT? Crazypants aren't a part of my wardrobe! I love you guys! LET'S MAKE DAISYCHAINS.

Okay, no SCRATCH THAT, I do kind of hold a bit of a grudge against you guys, because I see all these ideas running rampant in Wincest fics and NOT AT ALL in het fics, like, OKAY, dominence play, which, nggghh. SERIOUSLY, Dean needs to be all trying to get laid and this CHICK keeps grabbing his wrists and trying to pin him down and he's like, what the HELL, and she's like, on your back, cowboy, and then he's all, OH MY GOD. C'MON, WHERE THE HELL IS THIS KIND OF STUFF.

And that's all I have to say about that. *Sits on hands*

I cannot WAIT to finish my paper because I've got these two writing ideas floating around in my head, the first of which makes me ridiculously GLEEFUL, the second which will hopefully be my first ever successful multi-chapter fic. I even wrote an outline! GENIUS. *Lame* I'm just trying not to jinx it at this point! :x

My parents are gone for the weekend, my sister has more a life than I do, I've had some wine, and Ladytron is most definitely NOT playing at a reasonable volume. EMERGENCY DANCE PARTY STAT.

I am going to try and get a SPN het fic challenge type thingy going over the summer. I have the community name parked and everything. :D

\o/!!!

Also, WHAT WHAT WHAT, where is that original picture of Gabe! *ADORES*

[magikalrhiannon.livejournal.com]

i think it's because those who like the slash/wincest stuff, the dominance/kink stuff is ... not necessarily believable but easier to write. I don't read the het stuff because the chicks always annoy me. except your stuff. and charolette's. and chrissy's. I just... majority of the het stuff the chicks are nauseating. I'm so picky. Ugh. Anyway, yeah. Plus it's really hard to find good ruby or bella recreations. they're pretty complex characters with a specific voice and pairing those two with the boys are kinda... i dunno, weird? Anyway that's just MHO.

[caithream.livejournal.com]

That's pretty true! I've heard a lot of clamouring through fandom saying that the reason they don't read het is because the character of the girl is HORRIBLE or whatever, and whether that's a misconception or not, I don't know. It could have been just that one fic that turned them off, or whatever. Sad stuff. But hey, maybe take a gander through my del.icio.us links, see if you can find anything you like? :D

YOU'RE NOT A SLASH FAN? HOW DARE YOU RAWR RAWR RAWR.

;D

Actually I'm kind of UHM, sorry you have to scroll through my "NNNNGGH Ryan can pass out drunk on Michael's hotel bed ANYTIME" posts ahahaha (although seriously I'm like .0001% of that fandom's population. Slash fans can be rare, too!)

But uhm, ANYWAY. Wincest still does nothing for me, and it probably never will. I have read a few fics to see if the authors' creative visions could convince me otherwise, because, all right, I'm curious and like to hurt myself, but even when the stories were critically acclaimed by fandom I just couldn't SEE IT, you know? Supernatural gen and het fic are my babies. \o/

[caithream.livejournal.com]

I WILL BE THE ANOMALE THAT SHAKES THE WORLD, HEAR ME ROAR.

etc etc.

HAHA, dude, NEVER be sorry for that. It's nearly canon. In Michael's world anyway, HAHAAA.

Dirty dirty het, man, IT IS MY VICE. And looooong angsty plotty gen fics, ooh.

Crazypants aren't a part of my wardrobe!

If I didn't love you before, I would totally fall in love with you over that sentence.

♥

[caithream.livejournal.com]

I threw it out 'cause it didn't match with my sanity. :(

♥!!

[lfg1986.livejournal.com]

See now, I used to be totally squicked by the Wincest and J2. Then I read this one fic that just KILLED ME AND MADE ME CRY LIKE A BABY (it was wincest), and I haven't looked back since, lol. But I've never condemned anyone for liking something that I don't. That's just retarded. As long as no one's forcing any kind of opinion on anyone else, we should all be able to coexist in this fandom. Though sadly there are those who just can't (or WON'T) see that. I'm glad you have more class than that. :)

[caithream.livejournal.com]

Heeee, yeah, maybe one day it'll just hit me, or something. UM, I've quite recently found an interest in genderswap, SO. HAHA.

But yeah, dude, I would NEVER force my opinion on anyone else. It's none of my business, and for God's sake, trying to do THAT is like trying to put leashes on stampeding bulls; you're just gonna get yourself trampled in the process. And haha OH YES, I am the epitome of classy, don't you know. ;D ♥

[flusteredspeech.livejournal.com]

I was going to come in here and be a snot about the fandom crazy, but then this happened: "Dean needs to be all trying to get laid and this CHICK keeps grabbing his wrists and trying to pin him down and he's like, what the HELL, and she's like, on your back, cowboy, and then he's all, OH MY GOD."

AND I KIND OF LOST MY SHIT ASDLFKASHDGL;ASKDF.

*GETS DOWN GETS DOWN*

[flusteredspeech.livejournal.com]

HAAAAHA, I just realized how DIRTY that last bit sounded in context, and I didn't MEAN IT. I was just participating in the dance party, I SWEAR.

[distantechoes.livejournal.com]

I realized I wasn't a slash fan all the way back in 7th grade when I read Gundam Wing fics! WE SHOULD START A GROUP, LOL. And one of my biggest fandom peeves is when people are like "it's totally canon!" when it's totally not canon. D:

BUT I DIGRESS. We should totally collab on projects, because I always have these ideas but I can't write them out for SHIT. All I end up doing is storyboarding them and wanting to illustrate what doesn't exist as a story! Epic failure!

ARE YOU FREE NEXT FRIDAY between noon and 5pm?? :D :D
I will be in town. We should have wacky hijinks! ♥

[caithream.livejournal.com]

DUDE, RIGHT?? There's a reason why it's called fiction. Uh, fiction within fiction. Problems arise when people can't discern between those lines. :\

OH MY GOD YES. Multimedia projects! I AM ALL OVER THAT LIKE WHITE ON RICE.

Would you believe that I work 12 to 5:30 next Friday? UNBELIEVABLE. I suck so bad, I'm so sorry! Are there any other times you're maybe possibly available? *Cling!*

[marishna.livejournal.com]

Crazypants aren't a part of my wardrobe!

I immediately thought of bell bottoms for some reason. :|

Don't you know that, as a representative of the side of the LIGHT in fandom, you're supposed to convert us dark siders and get us to repent our wicked, wrong ways? DON'T YOU KNOW THAT'S YOUR JOB?!

I'm kind of picturing that god warrior chick from wife swap a few years ago who went all batshit on TV now. Fun times.

LOL! I found the clip, 'Everything is all dark-sided!'

[caithream.livejournal.com]

HAHA. ♥

ONLY IF I GET MY OWN LIGHTSABER, GOSH. If I'm gonna lay the smackdown, I want to be completely badass about it, you know.

AHAHA oh yeah, I remember that lady. Holy moley. Sometimes I'm absolutely convinced there are people like that running around in fandom, and not just about morality issues. Yikes.

[killmotion.livejournal.com]

I was gonna rec fecundfic but I see you're already a member there.

[killmotion.livejournal.com]

I adore this particular fic SO MUCH. It's so hot yet sweet. I FUCKING LOVE IT.

[la-victorienne.livejournal.com]

hey, haaay, i know i talk a lot about slash right now, but i have not forgotten my deep and burning love for het. which, you know, is why i wrote you a present. :D

you want it in a comment or a post? it's seven hundred words long. (i got a little carried away.)

actually, come to think of it, i'm gonna post it just for fun, so. :D STAY TUNED.

[caithream.livejournal.com]

YOU'D BETTER NOT FORGET. The more people I can make write het for me, the better! :D

AND SPEAKING OF WHICH, OMG, BABE, ILU. I'm off to read it right now! <33333

[orange74.livejournal.com]

I don't read much SPN slash, more crossover stuff if any. I am a bandslash person (which is a little more wrong, since they are real people)

ANYWAY MY POINT...

I know, at least in bandom, the Het stuff 9 times out of 10 ends up a Mary Sue. Maybe it's the same thing? Lack of females in the show forcing people to "create" their own, and it ends up being them just awesome.

That is my theory.

[caithream.livejournal.com]

I've heard that a lot about the Mary Sues. I dunno though! Sometimes I think a lot of people automatically associate female love interest as Mary Sue and I don't think that's fair. I mean, at least with SPN you don't have those "tenth walker" scenarios, like Lord of the Rings, you know, hi, I'm the gorgeous female elf that is now apart of the Nine and falls in love with so and so, and etc. Granted there IS a good number of Really Bad Het fics in the SPN fandom, but a lot less, I think, than I've seen in HP or Dark Angel or the like. I just wish people weren't so quick to throw up those assumptions. :(

[onelittlesleep.livejournal.com]

eee, sorry to barge in but

dominence play, which, nggghh. SERIOUSLY, Dean needs to be all trying to get laid and this CHICK keeps grabbing his wrists and trying to pin him down and he's like, what the HELL, and she's like, on your back, cowboy, and then he's all, OH MY GOD. C'MON, WHERE THE HELL IS THIS KIND OF STUFF.

YES. That is what I want! FOR SO LONG. WHERE IS THAT?!

[caithream.livejournal.com]

OH GOD I WISH I KNEW. I mean, I am SO okay with Dean getting all pushy and man-handley and agressive-like, but I'm pretty positive he'd completely lose his shit if he went home with a girl who all of a sudden just pushes him down on the bed and straddles him and is all, don't even THINK about moving, mister. And sure, he's a little perturbed at first, but then she does this thing with her hips, and he's all, okay, rough and manly later, then.

And I don't want to be the one to write it, I want to be the one to read it, DAMMIT.

[caithream.livejournal.com]

YOU AND ME, BABE. We will have long het and gen flailing together at Wincon this year. I know you've been trying to get into the military, but you are coming, right? RIGHT?? *Cling!*

Unghghsh all I can say right there is GOD YES.
