Real Person Fic - CW: As Boundless As the Sea [Masterpost]
Title: As Boundless As the Sea
Fandom: Real Person Fic: CW
Characters/Pairings: Jared/Jensen, attempted Genevieve/Jensen, background Misha/Vicki
Rating: NC-17 for tentacle porn, bondage (kind of?), interspecies (by which I mean humanoid alien/human) sex, interspecies violence, past off-screen character death, discussion of past suicidal thoughts, and language
Word Count: 35,209
Author’s Note: Late for one deadline and cutting it close for another, here at last is my spn_j2_bigbang for the year. Once upon a time, when I was in high school, my mother was driving me to school one morning and we were listening to Coldplay's "Fix You." She turned to me about halfway through the song and said, "Did you know this song is about an alien who falls in love with a sad human?" and then just kept right on driving without saying another word about it. I shit you not, that incident is responsible for this entire big bang. Also the fact that I like tentacles a whole lot and Jensen, by having the last name Ackles, was asking for it. Really, I cannot account for the things I do. I want to send a big thank you out to some people who were incredibly patient with my general failure as a human being: blythechild, who had only just hardly escaped being tied to me by our shared passion for tentacles in tentaclebigbang when she heard I was having trouble getting claimed for yet another tentacle bang and decided to take mercy and claim me, even though RPF is not her joint. Not only did she produce YET ANOTHER fucking gorgeous piece of art of which I am unworthy, she was also super patient with me when I failed, failed again to meet deadlines. Also, you guys will never get to see the glorious draft of tentacle porn she sent me for this story, so y'all should feel pretty sorry for yourselves. BWAHA. Another round of thank yous to four darlings who stepped in when I was in need of betas who could work with lightning speed because I am a fucking asshole: zubeneschamali, mollyamory, cackling_madly, and laurathelurker. They all found different but equally glaring mistakes to correct me on (this story was a fucking disaster before they swept in, take my word for it) and, for reasons unbeknownst to me, not a single one of them tracked me down and punched me in the face, though I sorely deserved it. And they also gave me some much needed confidence boosts and encouragement about this story when, quite frankly, I was in a fucking rut with it. Finally, the spn_j2_bigbang mods who run an incredibly tough bang every year with unbelievable patience and competency, and who have also done me the honor of not punching me for my lateness. Bless them. Shout out to my boy, Shakespeare, for titling all the sad, nameless things, and for not coming back from the dead to punch me. Oh, and in case you were wondering, yes I did pull the inspiration for Jensen's tentacle coloring from the squid in this icon. I owe thanks to selecasharp for using this little guy to inspire my paper writing during finals last month.
Summary: AU: Jensen is an Engelon, a species whose home planet was drained of all its resources and abandoned thousands of years ago. Now what remains of their collective live in a large spaceship that travels between galaxies in order to find, conquer, and drain new planets and their inhabitants of the one precious substance they need to survive: water. The Engelons don’t feel anything except for greed, thirst, and hatred for all creatures that try to stand in their way-except for Jensen. Always the odd alien out, Jensen has tried to keep his yearnings and emotions buried, but when his collective discovers a big, blue planet called Earth, everything changes.
Jensen is assigned the task of observing humanity up close, learning their ways and customs. When Jensen unintentionally takes a human form, his fellow Engelons have finally had enough. They cast him down to Earth, far from any ocean, where it is assumed he will die without access to water. But Jensen is rescued by Jared, a man who lives alone on the farm Jensen was dropped on. Jared has lost everything he ever held dear, but he has not lost his kindness or his willingness to help a very strange stranger in need.
