New experimental story: Depending on Sock Design

Jul 18, 2007 21:13

I'm totally excited because I finally finished my fourth chaptered BTVS fic. It's entitled Numb and Number. I'm having it beta-d and edited right now.

But before I post that, I want to get some personal catharsis. I love Supernatural. Recently I watched Gilmore Girls and apart from S1, Luke/Lorelei and the very last episode, I hated it. No offense out there to any Gilmore Girls fans on my f-list, but I hate Rory with a passion.

So I wrote a kind of Supernatural/Gilmore Girls cross over. It's a 7 part synopsis of all 7 years of GG, seen through SPN eyes. Kind of to get back at Rory, kind of to make fun of all the connections between these two fandoms.

Title: Depending on Sock Design (taken from a line of GG) Part One: Boyfriend Material
Rating: G
Warnings: Rory bashing galore, spoilers for all of GG, general SPN stuff-I assume you know everything in this.
Disclaimer: I own neither SPN or GG, just my ideas.
Description: What if instead of dating Rory, "Dean" was hunting her?

So please read and give me lots of comments and feedback, but please not to tell me you don't approve of my Gilmore Girls bashing. That's just what it is.


Truth be told, gun slinging and kick down the door is what I’m used to. But I’ve always been interested in the research and detective part too. Lying’s never been my thing either. Doesn’t mean I wasn’t good at it.

This was my first solo job, though to say I had help would be an understatement. I think my age was the only reason I was allowed to do it instead of my older brother.

I was nervous because this was a bad one I was hunting. Commonly known as the Beast, millions of men had fallen prey to it, and it often affected the behavior of the people around it, causing them to act in impractical, unseemly ways, not unlike itself. Its pattern was to select an area, kill one of the residents, someone suitable to its needs, and assume their identity.

We knew who it was-but we were too late to save the girl. Now we had to wait, watch. I had to get close, find out its weaknesses, its strengths, and gain its trust. In short, meet the Beast’s boyfriend.

But in order to become that, I’d have to create an entire new identity. I didn’t come up with that myself entirely. My dad set it up, but I had to be the one to maintain it.

I suppose I was thinking about him at the time, but Dean was the first name that popped into my head.

Gaining the mother’s approval, now that was hard. Partly because she was incredibly smart and not afraid to pry, but mostly because she didn’t know her girl was dead and the thing she was doting on had killed her. It would harm her to tell her, so I just had to let it happen. As well as keep the grandparents and the entire town who adored the girl in the dark. Precisely the reason the Beast had chosen Rory Gilmore.

I approached the Beast with caution but with confidence. I had to take it slow and yet make my actions completely believable. I should have been an actor.

But there was always a danger that I would be poisoned by the Beast’s powers. I did know what it really looked like. That helped, and taught me how to control my up chuck reflex. But the power would be too great for just me to maintain. That’s where the bracelet came in. As long as the Beast wore it, I would be protected. Dean made it for me to give to it.

It wasn’t long before I made my first mistake. The Beast had to think it was running the show. I moved too fast and it flipped out on me, thought it had to teach me a lesson. So I let it teach me. And endured all the whipped boy jokes Dean made whenever he would visit.

Eventually I won the Beast back over. The moment was perfect for the climax of any major chick flick movie anyone had ever seen. Let’s just say that it’s definitely not as glamorous when the girl is actually a Beast.
