Things That Drive Me Crazy: #00001
Fics where Dean is pretty.
I don't mind when he's mentioned as pretty or even described as such (because, heck, have you seen the man?), but I hate when it's a huge part of the fic. Like, every time there's a friggin' description, without fail Dean's feminized [fill in the blank] is mentioned. Sure, it's canon, he has "delicate features". I agree. But let's not forget, among the "plush lips" and "girlish lashes" and the glow that apparently just emanates from his pores, that Dean Winchester is a badass. He plays hardball and he plays for keeps. Mkay?
(I JUST HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE ARE SO BUSY LOOKING AT DEAN WINCHESTER THAT THEY FORGET WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT.)
