Sick Kid for Sick Kids
It's pretty exciting to get to talk to you guys outside of the comments and my Dean-voice. I haven't really done that before, y'know?
So, hey.
My name is Kira (it isn't really). I'm twenty. I started watching Supernatural in July and it promptly ate my life. I'm a college student on the east coast, majoring in English, and I want to be a big real writer when I grow up! I have cats and a dog and a girlfriend and a moose pillow pet named Growley. I write a shit ton of original stuff but I love, love, love writing Sammyverse, and the fact that you guys actually want to read it makes me UNBELIEVABLY happy.
So now naturally, I'm going to take advantage of you.
Here are a few truths.
--When Sammyverse Sam walks into his apartment at the end of "If Sam Loses Everything In The Fire," he will find Jess pinned to the ceiling.
--A TON of you guys have begged for an AU in which, essentially, Sam walks in to Jess happily making cookies.
--I want to write this AU.
--My spirit animal Jared Padalecki and patron saint Genevieve Cortese Padalecki are having a baby sometime in March.
--They're raising money for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. So far, they've raised over $20,000. Some of that--granted, a small part--is from me.
Let's make it less small.
For every $10 one of you donates between right this minute and the birth of the padababy, I will write 1,000 words of a curtain-verse of sorts in which Dean, Jess, and Sam settle down sometime after "If Sam Loses Everything In The Fire." So, essentially, we're writing a whole new series here. That's the only outline I'm giving, because the rest is up to you.
There's no limit to this. Get to $100 and I'll write 10k. Get to $1000 and I'll write 100k. Get to $1,000,000 and...I don't even want to think about that math, but I'll do it.
Here's where it gets fun.
Donate at least $10 and message me a screenshot (hit prntscr, paste it into Paint or whatever, crop, upload, send) or cut and paste your "thank you for donating" email. PLEASE feel free to black out whatever personal information you like. I don't need a last name. I don't need a first name. I just need whatever you feel comfortable sending that will show me that you donated, and a note saying how much. (But Kira, couldn't we cheat and make up an email? Yes, douchebag.)
Once I reply back telling you thank you and I love you (I am quick, it will not take long, and I will answer them in order--that's important later) come back to this post, put DONATED in the subject line so it's easy for me to find ya, and write, for each $10, an aspect, a prompt, a plot point, fucking ANYTHING that you want to see in this verse. And I'm on it.
That's obviously optional. If you want to donate but you don't have any demands, obviously don't let this stop you.
There are a few caveats. There have to be.
--Most importantly: First come, first served. If your prompt contradict a previous one (that's a judgment call I will make as reasonably as I can) I will tell you and you can try again. And there are a few things I won't do:
--Porn. Not on the journal, kiddos.
--Focus on hurt/sick Dean over hurt/sick Sam. Don't get me wrong, I'd be happy to beat up Dean some, but this is fitting with the original feel of the verse. So Sam's always going to be the one getting the brunt of my torture. Militant Samgirl here, sorry guys. (pro-tip: I'd be more willing to make Dean hurt than sick.)
--Kill of Dean, Jess, or Sam. That's why we're here!
--Contradict anything in the pre-Stanford/Stanford fics. This doesn't mean we can't go back and add/illuminate stuff, but we're assuming everything that's happened up until Sam walks into that apartment is canon.
And a few things just to keep in mind...if you want a baby, I'll write a baby, but keep in mind that that means I would either have to skip some time (Jess isn't getting preggers before cooking school), have it be an accident, or make you wait a little until I get there. (ETA: BUT there's no reason I have to write this one in order any more than I do Sammyverse, so I could always skip ahead and then pull back.) Similarly, it's veeery unlikely that Sam and Jess would intentionally have a biologically-all-theirs kid. Adoption or Dean's spunk in a cup would be more likely, see Jessakkuh for details on that. Also, there are still bad guys out there. They might need to hunt them once in a while. Up to you. And John's out there missing, what's up with that?
But this up to you, guys.
Please spread the word anywhere and everywhere where you think anyone might be interested. And if anyone with any skills wants to make a banner or some code or whatever the fuck kind of thing they do for memes? I would be SO INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL.
Please ask any questions in the comments, anything, anything, anything at all.
Okay. Let's make some sick Sam for some sick kids.
