NOW WITH PICTURES, because I couldn't put the MPREG into words! Bonus: you can see the haircut that makes me look like my 16-year-old brother. And I boast that I think I could win a bitch-face-off.
There's officially TMI about my porn reading habits, but I promise it's nothing, like, untoward or anything like that. MOM, if you're reading this PLEASE STOP I'M SORRY. <3
I've got seven tabs open, and am totally not illegally downloading Toto's "Hold the Line." In my defense, I've actually starting buying music lately, but there is some shit you don't want on your record.
I've got this planet in my hands
You know I'll waste it if I can
Come on let's give it a twist
And if it all turns to shit-
Oh wait, let's try that again.
My life's too short to have a plan
Here, let me help you understand
First take this drink and this pill
Relax your mind and be still
Let's find out who I am
I fucking love this song. I've never even heard of Innerpartysystem, and the fact that they capitilize all those words BOTHERS ME, but this song rocks my fucking socks off.
Also: I need serif fonts. I've gotten so used to reading fic on the Kindle that trying to read it on my laptop reminds me why I never got enough fic read until I could read it LIKE A BOSS BOOK.
I'm never sure what I think about fic that has the right cadence, a good style, but just doesn't quite fit in place for me. I'm like, "I enjoyed reading it enough to keep reading it, but I'm not sure if I enjoyed it, like, a lot."
Found a skin with serif fonts.
Also, kudos on Ao3 are both a blessing (for readers) and a curse (for writers). On one hand, as a reader when I enjoyed something but have nothing better to say than, "Hey, thanks for that!" the "Kudos ♥" is perfect, but I can't help but wonder if the writer is like, "Thanks 10 people who kudos'd this, but WTF did you like about it so I can learn from you?"
That is, I always thought one of the unique and beautiful aspects of fanfiction was how the community comes together and learns, and we all, like, buds in learning.
LEARNING.
I rather enjoy fic that works around Castiel sucking at being human when he starts and am totally not writing about it write now YOU DON'T KNOW ME why am I so predictable?, but not necessarily from a porny standpoint. I forgot what learning my interests in a new fandom FEELS LIKE.
I DON'T WANT TO LEARN NEW THINGS.
I also discovered that really hardkore D/s -- WHY ARE YOU BEATING HIM WITH A BELT? -- not really my thing. I'm boring like that, but I tend toward... preferring some equilibrium in relationships. That said, I'm actually not all that interested in Established Relationship fic. It turns out, I'm a junky for the moment where things all fall into place.
regann mentioned in a comment a couple posts down, that it's the romance novel moment when they just stop resisting and give in already -- this moment is always the best part, like... I don't know, when you crack a can of pop before you take the first sip?
Andy says I have a serious simile thing.
Guys, am I picky? I'm not picky, really, and I'm gonna keep reading, I just... I don't get as invested in the reading if something is off for me, and I really like when something grabs you by the brain and says, "YOU CANNOT TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THIS."
Okay, remember that question about being picky? CRYING IS 99% DEAL BREAKER FOR ME. There are moments where it is appropriate, but it is one of the things that initiates the eye roll and makes me close the tab. I never feel like I've missed out.
I am, in fact, a picky asshole.
THIS HAS NOT BEEN CRACKY ENOUGH, I AM GOING TO OPEN THIS MPREG JUST TO REMIND MYSELF WHY I DON'T CLICK MPREG. THE FIRST RULE OF --
Haven't read the MPREG yet; I like to go through a couple page, tab it up, and then go through and read like a kid binging on cake, which is something I also love. Mmm cake. BUT. 13 tabs. Let's do this, LJ.
I was going to try to put this into words, but couldn't and realized after I made a face during the first paragraph -- I'm just gonna let you see it in action! This is kinda of abbreviated, but you can try to guess:
* When I fail to get any explanation as to how they get the baby out.
* The moment Dean is certain that Castiel will leave him for being pregnant.
* When they have sex in a scrapyard in December.
* When he doesn't lose his shit when Castiel goes, "Oh, I totes knocked you up on purpose so I'd have an excuse to stay on earth. Sorry I forgot to mention that."
* When he tells Bobby.
* And the sneak attack when Dean starts breastfeeding the baby.
I even disordered the events, lol. Except the last one -- I'm pretty sure that picture is obvious.
I know I'm not going to beat those pictures, but I keep seeing references to Sam's "bitch face," and I needed to Google it because I have no idea which of his many facial expressions this is supposed to be.
BEHOLD. This one is my favorite, I think:
That said, I think I could beat him in a "OMGWTF" face-off. I mean, look at me. and SCREW THE RULES I HAVE GREEN HAIR, for good measure.
Okay, true story; until I was sans Internet and using the Kindle to get my fanfic fix, I hadn't really had a chance to really explore the Ao3 rating system. Since I've been loading everything from FF.net so far, I've really only used T or M and maybe G a couple times. So as I'm glancing at the ratings -- and I love that four square thing for a quick identifier -- I kept seeing the "E" and thinking "E for Everyone."
You can imagine my delight surprise when I realized it's "E for Explicit."
"Wh-what about the Catholics?" Dean asks, stumbling back. But Castiel keeps advancing.
"No, the Catholics are quite convinced of their own superiority. Nothing I say will change that."
HATERS GONNA HATE.
I'm just kidding. It's not *our* fault that we're awesome.

It’s too late now to stop the process
This was your choice - you let it in
This double life you live is eating you up from within
A thousand shards of glass you pushed beneath my skin
And left me lying there to bleed
And as you showed me your scars
I only held you closer
But as the light in you went dark I saw you turn over
I wanted always to be there for you and close to you
But I’m losing this
And I’m losing you
And oh I’ve gotta turn and run
From the faces that you never see
Oh I’ve gotta save my blood
From all you’ve broken
And pack up these pieces of me
Maybe without me
You’ll return to all the beauty I once knew
But I can’t stay to see how the sight of me brings that madness back to you…
The only way I can describe the music that Apocalyptica creates is goddamn fucking orgasmic. They pair with these terrific vocalists (I don't even LIKE Paramour, but that girl can wail out a mournful ballad), with these lyrics that punch you in the fucking heart, and this song is no exception.
I think that the Catholic in me should be appalled at the "Blasphemy" tag, and really in some situations I'm not sure you can AVOID the Blasphemy tag, but I'm not gonna lie -- kinda hot.
Then again, I'm reading gay porn. Involving an angel. And while I'm a bad Catholic, I don't believe that these are things that define that. So, blaspheme on, Ao3. <3
And i said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
I wanna hear you sing the praise
I said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
We got innocence for days
Well I think I'm gonna burn in hell
Everybody burn the house right down
And say, what I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave
Tell me I'm a bad man
Kick me like a stray
Tell me I'm an angel
Take this to my grave
You better run like the devil 'cause they're never gonna leave you alone
You better hide up in the alley
'cause they're never gonna find you a home
And as the blood runs down the walls
You see me creepin' up these halls
I been a bad motherfucker
And, on that blasphemy thing,
this ficlet just works for me -- I don't know about being terribly in character, and that tongue thing is like the least sexy thing ever, but the overall effect is -- yeah. Lest that sound like TMI, it's not, like, UNF one-handed reading or anything like that (because honestly, I read even porn fic less for immediate sexual thrill and more for the having... I don't know, for the having read it and therefore having it exist?
Which is not to say, you know, that I don't think of it, just that it's not what happens, but HOLY GOD ASHES STOP TYPING.
AHAHAHA THEY'RE GONNA HAVE SEX AND I'M LISTENING TO "I JUST HAD SEX" and ohgodineedtostopandgotobed.
