Fic: Untitled Henricksen Snippet, PG-13

[dwarfankylosaur]

Circa Night Shifter, Henricksen muses on the Winchester brothers and the evidence at his disposal. He is, of course, so very, very wrong. 350 words.

Re: yes!

It's why we love him.

[tigriswolf]

Wriiiiiite. You know you want to!

[dwarfankylosaur]

If I wrote it, would you read it over (assuming a word count of less than 15,000 and serious creepiness)?
BTW, I am behind on comments, but the SPN drabble you posted today was extremely satisfying.

[tigriswolf]

Thank you!

'long as there's no NC-17 sex scenes, I'd be happy to read over it!

[cmdc]

Dude I would read it so hard it would sleep for a week.

[dwarfankylosaur]

Thank you!

I do believe I'm slowly but surely beginning to fan the heck out of Henriksen. There's far too few fics with him.

And this is one of the most awesome. *smish*

You really should see if there'd be more to this.

Thank You for letting us see this! :)

[dwarfankylosaur]

Thanks! (I was praying for an episode where Henricksen actually lays out his theories about the Winchesters' childhoods and formative experiences. And now I shall never get it. *sniff*)
And I don't know about more to this particular story -- this was really all I got -- but there should definitely be more Henricksen fic out there. This deficiency is a black mark on fandom, I say.

I was hoping for a Henriksen-ep, too. One from his POV. But I think Kripke & co. don't dare try Outsider POV-idea yet...

Henriksen is quite a curious character, and he has his own voice, and if he would only talk to me, I so would write fics about/featuring him.

[auroramama]

*oooh*. I love that he's wrong, wrong, wrong... but not about that.

That little canon half-line about white supremacists and survivalists opened up a whole world to me. Of course he'd see them that way. The way you've expanded and unfolded that here, and made such plausible, vicious monsters out of the boys, is pure seduction. Yeah, you may have to write it.

And such a dark wish, that Dean should be confronted with an aspect of himself that (he thinks) even a monster like that would be appalled by. But it's so reasonable to want the gorgon to see itself.

Wrong again

[auroramama]

...is me. Read this aloud to the spouse, who said, "Because Sam is the one who would get away." I didn't get it until then -- that Hendriksen hopes Dean will kill Sam, that he thinks death is what Dean wants. Oh, am I dense. No fault of the story. It isn't just my slash glasses, since spouse is a Wincest fan too, but perhaps as the older of two, with a particularly vulnerable younger sibling, my mind just wouldn't go there. (Spouse is a middle child.)

Wow, I suck *so bad* at answering comments in a timely fashion.

You didn't come to the conclusion I was aiming for, but that doesn't mean you were wrong. I was really aware of how it would sound when I was writing this -- I feel like the line between the kind of overwhelming, obsessive love we see on the show and something even creepier is really fascinating. Honestly, Hendricksen's hypothetical Dean probably wants to do both. < g >

And yeah, I'm the eldest in a family with not-so-involved parents, and I'm totally with you on the mind block.

Re: Wrong again

[auroramama]

You totally win for answering. And yeah, the line is fascinating and possibly all stretchy. The idea of Hendricksen's Dean wanting both, yes -- as if under Hendricksen's best-guess conception of a sadistic killer there's someone who is just so fucked up that he doesn't know the difference. There's a kind of innocence in that, and I wonder if Hendricksen has any sense of it, if it's just something he does when trying to figure out how his quarry thinks, if it's a softness in himself that he still imagines Dean that way, or if he's right, if that's really what would be going on if Dean were the person he thinks him to be.
