SLASH --> AU!J2: "Owner Surrender" by vamphile. Summary: Jared volunteers at a dog rescue group. Jensen adopts a dog from him. They like each other, a lot. Words: 10.000+.

I ~really~ like this story. Mostly because the way Jensen's portrayed in this story? It's me. Really. Work, work and more work :)

Yesterday, I rec'ed the CWRPS fic "Nosce Te Ipsum" in my LJ - and it's really strange but I don't remember any fic in any fandom influencing me to this point, like ever. Jared's attitude, his way of viewing life in general in that particular fic was amazing. So I did a little experiment and I tried to apply that view while surfing the net today and wow, it really did make a difference - several times it stopped me from commenting in a sort of a knee-jerk reaction on stuff other people posted. And it made me feel much better about myself in the process. Wow. Who would have thought that...

CWRPS - J2: "All of Those Abiding Here" by marlowe6468. Summary: Jensen Ackles was the first journalist in fifty years to be jailed for refusing to name his source. A year later he's out of jail and has to deal with a murder case, a new intern called Jared - who may have secrets of his own - and re-adjusting to life after jail. But the past is never far behind and what will happen when it starts to catch up with him? Big bang.

Any other big bang fics I mustn't miss?

CWRPS rec! I'd seen this fic recced all over the LJ, so I decided to check it out and wow! Like, wow!

SLASH --> J2: "Queensguard" by aramuin. A Big Bang fic. Summary: It's been nearly three years since the war against the alien race known as the Others changed the world and nearly four months since they were beaten back by Earth's natural superweapons, the dragons. Jared's looking forward to reconnecting with his best friend and picking up life where he left off. It doesn't seem much to ask but after three years, how much has really changed? And are the secrets Jensen's hiding better left alone? Words: 50.000+.

Wow, I'm totally smitten. There are aliens, dragons, epic battles... Once I started reading it, I couldn't tear myself away, it was that compelling. I'm in love with this fic! *_*

ETA: And the timestamp! How I love this 'verse!

Wow!

I need to rec you a CWRPS fic, folks, J2 or course:

"Open Mike Night at the Fremont" by [livejournal.com profile] audrarose. Bookstore AU set in Chicago, with Jared as a sculptor who works out of a garage and Jensen as a bookstore clerk who's trying to get over a tragedy. Words: 20.000+.

Wow, it's... wow. The atmosphere, the... gentleness, I guess. I just lack the words to properly describe how awesome this fic is!

CWRPS:
J2 --> "Sweet Dreams Remain" by [livejournal.com profile] dark_reaction. Jensen is a bartender who has the shit luck of falling for a married man, or the cocktail waitress who ended Jared and Sandy's fabulous marriage. Words: 8.000+.

SPN:
WINCEST --> "What Remains" by [livejournal.com profile] walkawayslowly. This is the one where Dean loses his memory and himself, and Sam has to find both. Words: almost 40.000.

SGA:
MCSHEP --> "Senior Staff" by [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon. Sometimes John brings his laptop to meetings. Silly!

MCSHEP --> "Supersymmetry" by [livejournal.com profile] lallybroch. A little girl comes in through the gate claiming that Sheppard and McKay are her fathers. Series.

MCSHEP --> "Hindsight" by rageprufrock. Rodney is a brilliant scientist at Cheyenne Mountain and John is an FBI agent. Series.

MCSHEP --> "Bell Curve, or, Ladies Night at the Boom Boom Room" by rageprufrock. John is a bartender/stripper and Rodney is a professor at the CalSci. They meet in a strip bar. And then, the next day, they find out that John is, obviously, Rodney's new TA, too. Series.

Sometimes, you come across fics that make you feel like crying but at the same time, you are all mushy because they are filled with this... quiet happiness, nothing giggly, just this peaceful contentment...

CWRPS
SLASH --> "In from the Cold" by [livejournal.com profile] ladyjanelly. Jensen is homeless and sick, Jared is a medic in a free clinic. I finally finished reading this. In the humbuck that's been my RL lately, I completely forgot about it and I'm totally ashamed of myself now. This fic moves you to tears but at the same time, it makes you feel like there really is this thing called "true love". It shows you, that even if things and people change, it doesn't have to be for the worse. I usually don't read RPS, no bandslash or whatever, but Jared and Jensen simply have such amazing chemistry... Words: 30.000+.

Stargate: Atlantis
MCSHEP --> "OK Computer" by [livejournal.com profile] cesperanza. John is killed and Rodney turns him into a VR program. I freely admit that I cried during this fic. When John dies and the team is all broken and sad and then years later, when Rodney, Ronon and Teyla meet on New Athos and realize that they are still broken, that they never recovered... And when Rodney thinks that he lost John's program... It's so... Speranza is an amazing author, in every fandom that she tried. Words: 30.000+.

* Another bubble show canceled: New Amsterdam this time...

* How come that "Jim C. Hines" isn't an LJ interest? Did nobody here on LJ read his awesome "Goblin" series? *wibbles*

* [livejournal.com profile] ladyjanelly finished her awesome CWRPS AU "In From the Cold"! Jared works at a free clinic, Jensen is a homeless guy...

* OMG! Did you see the DVD sale Amazon's having? Stargate: Atlantis for 25 bucks a season (already ordered S1 and S2)! Stargate: SG-1 for 19.99! The Sentinel, S1 for 20 bucks! Charmed for 20 bucks too! The Pretender for 20! 21 Jump Street for 15 bucks! I want! I want! I want!

* It always surprises me how many people like Ezra on The Magnificent Seven! I am a Vin girl all the way. Although lately, I don't care if he's paired up with Chris or Ezra in slash fics. Though the gen stories about Chris and Vin bonding, about their awesome friendship always floor me *rolls in the pretty*

A very nice report from the con by [livejournal.com profile] ze_pink_lady. But OMG, Jared is REALLY overprotective. On the one hand, it's really cute. On the other hand, I think I would find that rather stiffling in RL since I like to fight my own battles... But I loved Jensen's reaction, just waving Jared's outburst off, like it's an everyday occurrence...

And now I need some protective!Jared fics. Figures *head/desk*

And since I'm already talking about the awesome that's the J2, you certainly know [livejournal.com profile] veronamay's "have you seen him whom my soul loves". Last night, I've been listening to the podversion read by [livejournal.com profile] nu_breed *rolls in the pretty* You can fairly feel how much the reader herself enjoys the story.

I'm now all caught up on Numb3rs! Yus! *pumps fist* What remains? Heores, Moonlight and Torchwood...

"Keep your enemies close, but your friends closer. That way your friends are between you and your enemies." - Goblin Proverb

Yes, goblins are rather endearing fellows XP



Fic rec! CWRPS...
J2 --> "And It's a Whole New Ball Game" by [livejournal.com profile] kestrelsan. Jared and Jensen are baseball players... The author obviously knows a LOT about baseball 8P
katikat: (Default)
YouTube video Sand Artist! Oh my, oh wow...



I finally read a fic again! :) CWRPS...
"In From the Cold" by [livejournal.com profile] ladyjanelly. It's a WIP and AU. Jared is a doctor in a free clinic, Jensen is homeless and sick. This fic... it's hard to describe... but I would say it's very gentle and quiet, no huge fights, no shocking plot twist... I like it very much :)



What is it with the Japanese and tentacle monsters? I'm reading Mamiya Oki's "Ja-Dou, vol. 3" and wow, tentacle non-con O.o



ETA: What's with photobucket these days? It takes ages for the uploaded pictures to show!

Yesterday, I finished translating and editing R. A. Salvatore's "Sojourn" and today, I started working on Barb and J.C. Hendee's "Rebel Fay", the 5th book in their "Noble Dead" series. Boy, these authors really do love their apostrophes *disgruntled*



I finished reading Sedonia Guillone's "His Beautiful Samurai" and I posted my review in my GoodReads account. Which I invite you to join, BTW. Come and friend me, I'm curious about what you read :)



Fic rec! CWRPS, Jared/Jensen:
"This, That, and Them" by [livejournal.com profile] mijmeraar. It's a cute established relationship fic set in the canonical universe. There are short and funny episodes from their lives. It's about getting another chance whenever you screw up. A very feel!good kind of story.



Some people just refuse to understand that simple .mp3 players just won't play .m4bs files *shakes head*



I'm thinking about joining some 50-book-challenge at the beginning of 2008. Maybe that will force me to read more books!
katikat: (Default)
CWRPS:
"Gun Shy" by [livejournal.com profile] jedi_diplomat. A gen fic with Jared and Jensen that in later parts of the series leads to Jeff/Jensen. Jared finds out that Jensen is more than shy and what's causing his erratic behavior.

Supernatural:
WINCEST: "A Night to Remember" by [livejournal.com profile] wincestlove. Pretty much a PWP that leads from Sam/OFC and Dean/OFC to Sam/Dean/OFC to Sam/Dean. Lets just say that the girl thinks the Winchester brothers are HOT together :))

WINCEST: "Ain't No Orpheus (He's No Eurydice)" by [livejournal.com profile] dea_liberty. Sam goes to Hell to get Dean out.

due South:
SLASH: "Jugglin' Act" by Speranza. So this whole mess begins with Frannie and her goddamned masturbating parrot. aka Fraser and Kowalski in a circus. 'nough said. Audio version by [livejournal.com profile] zabira can be found here.

SLASH: "Wings of Desire" by nos4a2no9. There are angels on the streets of Chicago. A fusion with the movie "Der Himmel über Berlin". Ray is an angel and he falls in love with a Mountie. No dead story but still a tearjerker *sniffs* Audio version by [livejournal.com profile] zabira can be found here.
