J2 on the brain!

[ladyjanelly]

 
So this song is about this cowboy who is trying to catch and tame this wild stallion and EVERYTHING makes me think of J2 right now, so I thought:

Okay.  Jared's this cowboy (post civil-war, but not by much) who is wanting to add horses to his struggling cattle ranch.

Problem is, he has no credibility and no stock and not much money.

There's this

Ooooooh, branded!stallion!Jensen...*has warm thinky moment*

[ladyjanelly]

MmHmm. With that brand still half-raw on his hip and Jared all "Oh Jesus what have I done?" Jensen half-wild again and needing to be re-gentled. Half-horse inside his pretty head.

[spinfrog]

...but he can still turn into a horse and sire some foals once a month or whatever? ;)

[ladyjanelly]

o.0

Maybe he'll still be able to talk to horses? After being one for so long and can help Jared out somehow like that.

Oh my god, that has so much potential for awesomeness! And everyone likes weirdly dark crack-fics. (Or at least I do.) You should totally write it. *g*

[ladyjanelly]

But--but--firefighter!Jensen?

I DON'T KNOW WHY JENSEN'S A HORSE. <---the real reason.

[yonihamagid]

I can't believe I'm enabling your crack habit, but here goes...

An evil enchantress (enchanter, whatever) cursed him. Or he's a were-being. Or it's an AU in which the taming and branding wild animals grants them humanity, or just a few very special animals, maybe that's what Jared actually went up there to do, but the reader doesn't know it until they're in each other's arms.

Yes, it's all been done before. It's a MacGuffin (and, yes, I expect you know what a MacGuffin is, but read the entry carefully; all that's important is that the characters accept the situation, then the readers will too).

Awww. Crack is the best kind of fun.

Also, my homeless!verse is done. If you ever are in the mood to read one of my gay romance stories, that would be the one I'd recommend.

Also, lomer came up with an awesome idea about "It's post Civil War, right? If you wanted to go with dark-fic, maybe his family owned slaves so he was cursed to live as an animal until someone owned him"

Which is awesome of awesomeness.

[allyoops]

So it's safe to say Jensen's hung like a horse?

...I'm sorry. I just can't help myself. :D This deserves to be written, even if it does turn our to be dark or angsty or weird. Cowboy!Jared! ♥

[ladyjanelly]

But why is Jensen a horse??!!??

It breaks my brain.

[lunardreamed]

Believe it or not, I've had similar ideas (it comes of reading to much D/s where the one guy is all "easy" and needed to calm the other guy who is "skittish as a colt), but I have never been able to figure out how Jensen was a horse either.

[ladyjanelly]

lomer has solved the madness for me. OMG what a great idea.

Crap. Poor firefighter fic.

[gestaltrose]

oooo this looks good.... crack ness with j2.... don't know if it'll end dark but I'll take a shot at it (btw I am fucking sloooowww just so you know). :)

[ladyjanelly]

I think I've been talked into trying this one? But I'm working on firefighter first damnit.

I'd love to see what you come up with though. It's almost a story I'd rather read than write.

[gestaltrose]

Would you mind if I tried... I am sure it will be much much different than yours other than the premise... the taming the branding and changing into human.

[angels3]

Soooooo who are you trying to convince us or yourself.

[ladyjanelly]

Sigh. If I wasn't wanting to be nudged into writing it I knwo I shouldn't have brought it here. So evidently I had a secret desire to write it.

[angels3]

You just needed someone else to take the heat for it.
