Fic title: Reanimated
Author : tigbit
Artist: bittersweet_art
Genre: RPS AU
Pairing: Jensen/Jared
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 80,000
Warnings/Spoilers: Everyone’s dead (but fairly alive), blasphemy, references to extreme child abuse, strong language, and an overabundance of love for food.
Summary: In which Jared manages real estate in Heaven and Jensen works as Hell’s attorney in Death Trials. Extreme ambiguity and a distinct lack of beer push Jared to accept a different kind of job in a hotter, more southern locale. The boys meet. Hijinks and grocery-stealing in Hell ensue. Featuring saints on book tours, love on trial, after-life bureaucracy, and sin. Suprisingly not as cracktastic as it sounds.
notes: Wow, this has been a really intense BigBang period for me, but here it is, my second BB for the year! I can't believe how lucky I was that I got to work with tigbit, who's just really freaking awesome. I had no idea what to expect from this fic, but both the story and the writing just blew me away. tigbit has managed to create a whole new world within Heaven and Hell, and that alone is incredibly impressing. But then the story is also the perfect mix of funny and angsty and beautifully written on top of everything. YOU HAVE TO READ THIS, PEOPLE! And she wrote a scene for me!!! I came up with this crazy idea that I wanted to make a subway map for Hell (if you've been reading my journal, you know my theories about public transport and its origin), and she said "Cool, I'll write it in the story". AND SHE DID. *dances* So, thank you Amy, for being so lovely to work with! And thank you wendy andthehighwaywoman for arranging this again, you guys are amazing!
Well, uhm, yeah. To the artsy bit. Please click on the previews to watch the images in larger format, they look so much better like that.

In which I have managed to include my own hair. Since I love to use myself as a source, the picture of Steve originally have me standing to his right, not Kristen Bell, and since my hair covered his hair I just made it look like his. Lucky thing I was blond at the time!

Jared
click for bigger (and here for even bigger)
“What’s Heaven like?” Jensen’s voice is soft and muffled, face half-hidden in Jared’s hip. Jared hears a mix of child-like wonder and curiosity blended with something darker. Regret. Maybe a bit of shame.
Images come to mind. Beautiful, soft sand beaches. The blueness of a sky without clouds, never a promise of rain. He thinks of the steam rising from his favorite dishes, of never needing to reach for salt or pepper because there just wouldn’t be a point and the way the pears or limes or apples on his fruit tree nearly glowed in the pink sunrise. He closes his eyes and thinks back to the clean air, the salt of the sea, the ever-present hint of lavender on Sandy’s shirts.
Heaven is everything and nothing at all.
“What’s it like?” Jensen prods again.
Jared rubs at Jensen’s neck, pets his hair. “Lonely,” he whispers, and it’s the truth
I'm so glad I managed to talk my boss into getting me a new Wacom Intuos, just in time for BigBang. TOTALLY A COINCIDENCE! *cough* It makes it SO much easier to draw and paint digitally! Jared is sketched on paper, scanned and then painted and edited in Photoshop. The background is a photograph that I've tweaked.
Jensen

“I was right here,” Jensen says firmly, punctuating his words when he slaps at the rock he sits on. “Right where I belong.”
Same thing here, Jensen is painted by hand, while the background is a tweaked photograph.
Subway of HELL!

So, this was the first idea I got and I wish I'd started out sooner or had more time but... here it is anyway. I wanted to do something much more clever, but this was as clever as I had time to make it in... 48 hours? The real challenge was where the different lines crossed each other and to find a name that worked for both of them... I only managed to get three or four points where that happened, but that's better than nothing!
And if Disney princesses can be strippers, they can be subway stations in hell, right?
The Smiths tribute is also a small tribute to an old friend (who'll never see this) with whom I always used to play "name the funniest Smiths title" when stupidly drunk. I should also add that I love The Smiths and do not by any means think that they deserve to go to hell for any other reason than that I'd like to listen to their music if I end up there :P
Jensen's business card
I totally based this on Patrick Bateman's business card from American Psycho. It seemed appropriate.
