Summary: Jared is a renowned 19th-century hypnotist. He puts Jensen under his spell
Reccer's notes: Tipsy_kitty writes some pretty marvellous AUs, but this piece I find particularly delightful. Set in 19th century England, Jensen is a pompous prig and Jared, his long suffering admirer. I love the way tipsy_kitty portrays both of them in this story. Her Jared has his hands full courting Jensen, and the slow build as Jared uses his skills to convince Jensen he needs him, is quite diabolical. Jensen never sees him coming! Beautifully written with just a lovely touch of whimsey and humour, this is a wonderful romp.
[Short excerpt]“Do you need any of your special little baubles?” Jensen asked as they made their way into the suite’s parlor. The chambermaid had lit the gaslights in Jensen's absence, and the room was suffused with a golden glow. “I don’t want you crying foul when you lose our bet because your magic crystal was at home.”
Jared stifled his irritation. Damn Jensen and his condescending attitude. Jared had half a mind to make Jensen believe he was a housecat and then invite some of their mutual friends over for a nightcap.
But no, it would be enough to know that he’d won, that the “great intellect” of Jensen Ross Ackles could indeed be as suggestible as a bar wench or coppersmith.
“I have everything I need,” Jared said smoothly. “Let’s get started.”
