Prompt: Jared has been studying dragons since he was small. He's been fascinated with them for what seems like forever. There have been tales of an old dragon who lives on a protected mountain somewhere close to the University, who some times will grant audiences to the ( Read more... )
He's nesting. The thought makes Jensen smile, because it's almost as if they're making a home, him and Jared, in this room with their shared books and their shared bed. The smile's wry. Jared's human. Jensen's not, and every moment is precious. Jensen finds himself trying to memorize every word Jared says, the exact configuration of his knuckles, the smell of his skin, the arch of his back under Jensen's mouth.
Even in six months, Jared's older. He's lost the desperate possessiveness of those first kisses, although he's as jealous of Jensen's time as Jensen is of his. He's learnt to phrase his sentences to hint at arguments he can't say aloud, and the dissertation itself has become a covert, elegant challenge to the University's orthodoxy. He's bulked up, shifting crates, and he moves with a confident surety that fascinates Jensen. Jared knows it, too. A sly smile can make Jensen shiver in the heat of the Blind Unicorn's taproom: alone, Jared can be tender, romantic, or so wickedly, dirtily obscene that Jensen finds himself in an almost constant haze of sexual arousal. He'd thought, vaguely, somewhere in his future when he mated he'd find out what all the fuss was about. Now, he's half hard the moment he steps in the room and Jared's there. It makes for long nights, and adds a level of play to academic argument that Jensen's never suspected could exist. Both of them are prepared to play dirty, and while Jared's bigger, Jensen's sneakier.
He's also happy. It's unexpected, shocking, wrong. He's never heard of a dragon in love with a human. Dragons quest, following some ill-defined urge Jensen's never bothered to find out much about. They find a mate. They nest. Sometimes, they have nestlings. It's always seemed a little boring.
There's nothing boring about Jared. He's fascinating. He's so human, and at the same time there's something about him that's almost dragonish: his toothy grin, the shape of his hands, the way he collects things. Sometimes, more and more frequently, Jensen dreams they're flying together, tumbling through the sky in a synchronicity that's all grace and power. In his dreams, Jared's a blue dragon. Always blue. It is, Jensen thinks, something about the shade of his skin in candlelight. Once, looking at Jared's hand clenching on the bedsheets, the sheen of light had fragmented so clearly into a pattern of scales Jensen had blinked.
I can't wait for Jared to change either. gah. I just LOVE what you've done here. I saw you mentioned a few creature!fic writers and I absolutely agree, they're amazing. Just wanted to add that salire is writing a gorgeous dragon!J2 as well although I must add it's a WIP.

- awfully glad you liked this one, too. I must admit, I rather cherished it for the chance to write books - not something I can do that often in SPN, although they do seem to creep in around the edges!
Cover *is* stunning, so agreed!
