Sunday Big Bang Rec Post
So sorry, guys. I know I'm behind. I thought I could manage it this year on my own. Apparently I was wrong. So, a week late, my recs for Big Bang week 3.
Title: A Slow Process of Understanding
Author: arabia764
Pairing: Jensen/Jared
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: ~ 94,300
Summary: It's a world like this one except for the all-powerful State that's very firmly in control and, oh, the fact that slavery is legal. Jared had never really thought about it, or the fight for freedom going on around him, he was too busy enjoying his privileged life as an actor on a sci-fi show.
But what is he meant to do when he's forced to permanently bond to a slave he doesn't want just because he made one silly, drunken mistake? Does it change who he is, what he is?
Trouble is, Jared isn't sure who he was to start with. He'd never thought about it.
And what about his slave? Can he force Jared into learning something about himself?
Title: All the Way Home
Author: peggy_lane
Pairing: Jensen/Jared
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 36,000
Summary: When his life went to hell, Jensen left Dallas and moved to the small family ranch to start over. It's a lonely, solitary existence until he hires Jared to help out around the place. Jared's a temptation that's hard to resist and Jensen finds himself beginning to live again. But ranching isn't his calling, and Jared's running from some demons of his own; he's not the type to stick around. They're temporary, and Jensen thinks he's fine with that, but letting go has never been so hard to do.
Title: Better than Moonshine
Author: riyku
Pairing: Jensen/Jared
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 33,000
Summary: After publishing a few dime store paperbacks and one novel that scored decent critical success, Jensen's in a bit of a rut. He's got an editor breathing down his neck, an overdue novel that needs to be written, and a weeklong workshop to lead on beating writer's block. To top it off, he has a vicarious one-night stand, and now the guy keeps showing up all over the place. It turns out that a little petty larceny, a car crash, and possible blackmail--all in the name of fun--might be exactly what he needs to kick-start his writing again.
Title: Fiddler’s Green
Author: splashpink
Pairing: Jensen/Jared
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 42,000
Summary: Jared has grown up dreaming of being like the heroes he plays on the big screen, something not helped by Jensen who has been there, done that, and really hates Jared’s new script. Then the unthinkable happens, and it seems like fate is determined to give Jared the chance at adventure he has always wanted. But he quickly finds that being a hero is a hell of a lot harder than it looks in the movies.
Title: Hockey Nights

Summary: Jared's a successful young goalkeeper for an NHL team and his career is on the way up all the time. Jensen plays University hockey and meets him thanks to his friend's outrageous behavior at one of Jared's games. But Jared's not ready to tell the world the truth about who he is. When Jensen gets a chance to play for the same team as Jared, he tries to prove that neither of them has to hide.
