Just caught up on the latest few episodes of Supernatural, enjoying this season a lot, yay!

Loved the episode with the gay couple, especially the ending.


Supernatural just showed how easy inclusion and character diversity can be

Then I watched episodes 3-4 of Damien, and the police detective who has figured out that Damien is involved in several suspicious deaths and has got all up in his face about it, goes home to his husband and son.

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE.

Oh, ha, when I went looking for confirmation that I hadn't somehow misinterpreted a scene where the detective comes down to breakfast, hovers closely over the shoulder of a man who smiles at him and shoos him away and then goes and talks to the child sitting eating breakfast I found this scathing review of the episode/show

Oh, and I was going to make a joke about how Damien seemed to be putting on some sexual tension between himself and Detective, but it turns out Detective actually is gay, and has a husband in addition to a son. I appreciated the subtle insertion of it.

Ha, I wasn't the only one liking the vibe between Damien and the detective. But married, so never mind...



Damien is...not a good show so far. The pilot was underwhelming, so I didn't rush to watch anymore but now [personal profile] astolat is writing awesome, awesome Lucifer/Damien fic, so i have watched a few more eps and am mildly interested enough to keep going (as long as I can play on the internet while I do).

Fic rec! [personal profile] astolat has written two fics in a series (gods i hope there's more coming), and has invited other people to write stories in this universe. I'd be tempted if I wasn't too intimidated! Because it's awesome! Go read it!

Only Begotten

Why, why, why is there no fanart for their found family yet.

See, Shalott wrote this fic a couple of weeks ago and it is BEYOND AWESOME and it made me GLEEFUL for days!!!

See, I wanted to rec it but I wanted to rec it to everyone! And I can't, cos it's wincest. And I rarely say this, but the slash is totally superfluous and I want to tell non-slashers that if they can bear to, please to be reading anyway, and just kinda skip over the boykissing please. There's not very much!

It's the Winchester boys get an inheritance and find out they're WIZARDS and have to go to HOGWARTS to pass their Wizarding equivalency exams!! DEAN GETS SORTED INTO HUFFLEPUFF. And if the image of the Impala (modified like the Knights Bus) full of Hufflepuff kids in leather jackets and RayBans doesn't win you, there's probably no use saying any more.

Go read Old Country. It's MAGIC.

Vid recs!

The best vid in the world won't do much for me if I don't like the music, and I will love intensely a mediocre vid with one of my favourite songs.

This is a freakin AMAZING Dean/Sam vid, WITH ACTUAL KISSING. But I don't like the song. *cries*

Vids by Jules
http://www.come-undone.com/vids/

I have only watched random vids from this page so far, and some are REALLY GOOD, and some fairly ordinary. My favourites...

Ghostbusters
Supernatural, gen, just what you'd expect. This is GREAT.

EvOL Brings Teh Sexy Back.
Supernatural, Born Under a Bad Sign episode tag. Episode-specific vids don't usually do much for me but this is HAWT.

The Devil Went Down to Georgia.
Supernatural, Dean and the yellow-eyed demon. I love this song, so *shrug*

Don't Stop Me Now.
Smallville, Clark doing all my favourite things, flying, making out, beating up people. OMGHEISSOHOT.

Goodbye My Lover
BtVS, Everything I love so much about Buffy/Spike. Except the end of the vid sucks - I have no idea what the vidder was trying to achieve, but she fails.

Brilliant rec page here.

Many, many, GEN Supernatural fics. Also some het, a few threesomes, plus the dreaded Wincest. I haven't had a bad rec so far. I've even read a Sam/Ellen fic. SAM. With ELLEN.

Then I saw this -

In the Company of Demons by stele3
(Sam/OFC, Dean/OFC, Sam/Dean/OFC) Okay, I was so, so wary of this story. I saw the words "succubus" and "OFC" and just... was afraid. Wow, I'm so glad I paid attention when Maygra recced it. This is one of the most remarkable pieces of fanfiction I've ever read, and absolutely one of the most memorable original characters. More than that, the OFC is used to illuminate the canon characters in deep and startling ways. I can't praise this highly enough.


Most remarkable, huh?

Tentatively I clicked on the link. And found these warnings -

In the Company of Demons. 31,225 words. Het, R to NC-17. Not for the kiddies: includes dominant/submissive relations, sadomasochism, rape, counter-rape, physical abuse, bondage, threesome, Wincest if you want to look at it that way. Sam/OFC, Dean/OFC, Sam/Dean/OFC.
Summary: Dean and Sam go hunting for a succubus and find way more than they bargained for.


I can safely say I have NEVER come within throwing up distance of a fic with those sort of warnings on it. I have no idea why that reccer convinced me to try this one.

What I have to say about this fic.

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

I have no idea if anyone else will give this a go, but just to clarify, I do NOT consider this a Wincest fic. Extreme smarm (if you can describe Dean's obsession with Sam that way) but Dean's need for Sam is one of the things that I love about the show.

Anyway, the fic's thisaway, if you dare.

This is pretty compelling reading. However, as the author hasn't attached warnings to it, I feel obliged to, since I'm reccing it and all.

[livejournal.com profile] mr_booboo told me off. *is cowed*

Right. I'm calling an intervention for you. First with the Smallville and the loving of Lana/Clark and now with the Dean/Jo het.

You are now banned from watching TV by yourself. I had thought better of dragonfly, but obviously she's not monitoring you well enough.



I feel there's a record that needs setting straight here.

Last night, after we had no more Supernatural to watch we switched back to Smallville. The episode happened to be one where the spirits of some 18th century witches possess Lana, Chloe and Lois. Unfortunately, the contrast between the quality of the two shows was obvious.* There's a scene where Dean Jensen Jason holds up the Book of Magic and threatens to set it on fire with a gas firelighter. I was embarrassed for him.

Even the scene with sweaty shirtless Clark with his arms CHAINED ABOVE HIS HEAD looking like something out of really good porn failed to redeem this episode.

And, omg, the last scene!!!

Lana *angsts*

Me - OMG JUST DIE ALREADY.

Dragonfly - I am going to bed. Lana has DRIVEN** me away.



*This is a bad sentence, isn't it? I am too tired to make it better.
**That's a word, right? It looks weird. I am very tired.

Only two episodes I haven't seen now - have no idea why I don't have 2.10 and 2.13. *shrug*

Watched our last two last night, which for reasons that don't need exploring at this juncture, were 2.12 and then 2.06. Continuity - who needs it.

2.06 No Exit - OMG SO SCARY )

I like Jo a lot. I like the interaction between Dean and Jo.

I would read Dean/Jo. But because I am incredibly finicky about het it would have to be fabulous.

Anyone got any amazingly astoundingly brilliant Dean/Jo recs?

*listens to deafening silence*

Friday night I was like, we're watching as many episodes of Supernatural as possible tonight, because tomorrow we are MOVING ON.

Came home from work yesterday fully intending to watch Heroes episodes. Impulsively decided to watch one more episode, 'The Usual Suspects'


2.07 The Usual Suspects - THE EPISODE WHERE THEY DON'T TALK ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS. )

2.09 Croatoan )

2.05 Simon Said )

Random other favourite scenes. )

Indications that I have achieved 'obsession' status. )

Is there a drinking game for how many times the Winchester boys talk about their feelings?

Also, Smittywing has finally finished The Best Things In Life Are Free. Work is going to drag.

Also, bushland down the block burnt last night. Completely failed to notice the smell of smoke (hello? Watching Supernatural!) Twas the sirens that finally got us out to the back porch to gawk.

Also, KMart are having a sale, picked up the first couple of seasons of Deadwood and Entourage cheap.

Fabella, famous for her fabulous Supernatural vid,Freak (in my top 20), has a new vid, Come On, Angel. All you SPN fans will probably enjoy it. Me, not into the fandom so much anymore - what can I say, people stopped dragging me to their homes and forcing me to watch the show. *g*

She also did a very cool Harry Potter one, Golden Boy.

(For links to all her vids, they're in her LJ Memories)


However, the vid I currently like to have randomly play in the background will probably not be so much to people's tastes. An SGA action vid set to heavy metal music, Weapons of Mad Distortion.

[livejournal.com profile] ascetic_hedony linked to a couple of Supernatural songvids he'd been on about at the slash gathering on Sunday. And because he is a sneaky, sneaky man, he snuck in a SPN RPS fic, which I ignored completely for the length of time it took me to download the vids, at which point I thought, how often does AH rec stuff? This must be the best fic ever.

So I read http://winterlive.livejournal.com/217618.html. And it was really good. I hope that the friendship between Jenson and Jared is that cool in real life. And then there was some hot sex. And it was good.

And then I remember that months ago someone had emailed me an SPN RPS fic to read cos they loved it so much, and if I remember right my reaction was something along the lines of 'm'what, now?' And it sat, lonely on my desktop for a long time and then got filed away.

So I get out http://winterlive.livejournal.com/203560.html. Finally. And it is indeed very good. And hot. And oddly familiar.

And now I talk spoilery stuff about the sex and plot and stuff )

It was just freaky, that I was able to recognise that both fics recced to me were the same fic by the same author. Maybe she's the Go To girl for all your hot SPN RPS needs.

I really enjoyed both fics, just..

Probably best not to read them both on the same day, is all.
