Artwork : SPN J2 Bigbang 2021 - The Sound of Silence
Artist: blondebitz
Author: lullysg
Title: The Sound of Silence
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Summary:
Jensen is deaf, and he starts teaching American Sign Language classes at his college after losing his job. Jared is forced to take ASL as an elective class after a dare from his roommate Chad, but he's immediately bothered by his teacher for some unknown reason, and ends up being a jerk to him, also refusing to pay attention to his classes. One night, Jared is walking to a bar and is attacked by three guys who beat him up. Jensen finds him and tries to call for help, using his voice which he never does since he's ashamed of it. Jared ends up with a brain injury that causes aphasia, a temporary loss of speech. He doesn't know who saved him, only remembers a voice.
Chad convinces Jensen to help Jared, since he's feeling very down after the loss of speech, and asks Jensen to teach Jared ASL so he can communicate. After a rough start they are able to bond and become very close, with Jensen teaching Jared much more than just a way to communicate, and realizing he has also a lot to learn from Jared in return.

I'm sure you will adore her story as much as I do.

So before we get to the pretties, I want to say thank you to those who gave this artwork inspiration and purpose.
Firstly, a big thank you to my awesome partner in crime lullysg whose excellent story, The Sound of Silence, inspired my muse. Not only is she a truly talented author, but also a wonderful supportive partner and an absolute a delight to work with!
A huge thank you goes to wendy for once again organising and running everything at spn_j2_bigbang so perfectly with her inimitable style and grace and for allowing us all to happily play in the sandbox each year!
