I’m on AO3 as ilovehowyouletmefall

And this is a very abbreviated list of things I’ve written. There’s more, both on AO3 and in my “my stuff” tag. But brief highlights:

For SPN

Ignite your bones

COMPLETE. Chuck takes the Winchesters up on their offer in 15x19. Dean kills Sam. Cas gets brought back. Dean, Cas, and Jack deal with the emotional fallout.

I said show me something

THE toxic deancas post-15x19 fix-it PWP with feelings. Dean and Castiel are both unwell in the head, but they somehow end up in the right place anyways. It’s fun.

NOW WITH A SEQUEL: Forget your perfect offering.

The sequel is very much not a PWP (Though there is quite a bit of sex). It’s multi-chapter, about Castiel trying to rebuild Heaven with the resurrected angels, and Cas and Dean building their relationship while still being unwell about each other. There is so much that is fun about this fic, it’s kind of hard to describe, I would just really, really suggest that you read it.

Life Skills

Season 9, no Gadreel, Cas in the bunker. Dean takes it upon himself to teach Cas how to be human. You know the stupid way Dean and Cas look at each other in s9? The fic is about that. That vibe. AND about Dean having hangups around masculinity. AND about Dean sharing his favourite things with Cas. Including sex.

Full of Grace

~7k words of feelings, followed by ~3k words of tentacle porn. But the tentacle porn is played for body horror. And the body horror is played for emotional affirmation.

And for BTVS

This Isn’t A Kingdom

THE Giles/Jenny wishverse fic. It’s got everything: action, flirting, teamwork, angst, sex. My greatest cultural contribution. Put this one on my gravestone when I die.

Trust

If you were a Giles/Jenny fan in the mid-to-late 2000s, you might remember a WIP fic where Giles and Jenny met in London 12 years before Sunnydale. You might remember it being left on a cliffhanger in 2007. WELL GUESS WHO FINISHED IT IN THE YEAR 2020.

it was one thing to be a supernatural blog in 2021 when destiel was the most important thing happening in the world. but it takes true bravery and courage to still be a destiel blog in 2024

The thing is. Other characters don’t live outside the narrative the way Dean and Cas do.

butch–dean:

the confession (jensen’s version)

“In my mind, I was sitting there thinking that… you know, it was like this flashback—you know they say that when you’re about to die your life flashes before you. In my mind, I was flashing back to Lazarus Rising and seeing him walk through the barn with the sparks flying and all of the sudden all of these clips in my mind of Castiel and walking into the lake, and all of these things that are ingrained in my memory and seeing this now character have to say goodbye, but also knowing that my friend was in there having to struggle with this as well and I just thought he did such an artful job and such an incredibly nuanced performance in that moment that I was really proud of.” x

Buffy the Vampire Slayer | 4x12 “A New Man”

It has been a WHILE since I posted about Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Here are some of my hot takes:

1. Seasons 1 & 2 are essential and a cut above the rest. The episode quality may improve in future seasons but the themes and emotional resonance never hit these highs again. Even if BtVS ended after season 2 it would still be culturally significant.
2. BtVS cannot be remade in the modern day. Its premise is very rooted in the pop-culture landscape of the 90s. It is in dialogue with the kind of horror movies and teen movies that just do not exist anymore. If you wanted to be true to what BtVS was doing (riffing off and subverting pop culture tropes) you would have to make something new, that’s relevant to today’s cultural landscape.
3. Xander’s casual sexism is period-accurate and should be considered an unfortunate expression of the writers’ prejudices, not an intrinsic part of his character. Xander’s character is redeemed by his loyalty and devotion.
4. Any iteration of “The Scoobies are bad friends to Buffy” is a bad take. It is kind of *interesting,* though, because it is a relatively new take, and even the opposite of what the initial fan reception was, it kind of breaks my brain how much opinion has shifted. It’s a cultural shift. What audiences expect to see from on-screen friendships is different from what it used to be.
5. Season 4 is good.
6. Season 5 is bad.

I’ll probably add more takes later

7. Giles is not (just) Buffy’s father-figure. If that’s your definition of him, he won’t make sense. He exists in tension with that role, not in harmony with it.
