Oh! Good question. I think adventure, drama and serious, SPN or J2 are all in play. I'm not sure I can really write horror and I don't want to write a long crack piece right now, I like those short and sweet. : )
Here's some ideas - and don't worry, I won't be offended if you have no interest in any of them! But perhaps they will strike the flint for your spark.
A riff on the classic concept of the Mummy - Jensen as a being cursed to be immortal, given a chance once every 100 years to find and win his true love and break the curse. This time around it's Jared.
Steampunk setting - Jensen as a Captain Nemo figure, Jared as a merman charged with keeping his realm from being discovered. Jared is taken prisoner (however dark that goes) and has to figure out how to get Jensen to see reason with no leverage.
Dean/Sam story with a Snow Queen-esque villain who turns one of their hearts to stone
Jensen as an almost literal Disney princess - can speak to animals, they follow and flock to him - and he hates it. Jared is the prince come to woo him. He hates that too. But fleeing his destiny gets dark - maybe he wishes away his power a la the little mermaid but loses the ability to communicate with anyone, or some other curse. Or maybe Jared is cursed or killed
( ... )
Oh, those are some great ones!!!!! Thank you so much. I really for some reason love the Disney princess one. I'll have to cogitate on these. And yes, thanks for understanding. I just need a little somethin' somethin' to get reved up! And there don't seem to be any demon blood options around. LOL
LOL! (Love your icon) I love that series, but I'm think it would be more of a cracky one-shot for me. casey679 asked me what genres, (which I didn't think of adding in my request). I think I'm more in: adventure, drama and serious, SPN or J2. Thank you so much though.
I love that image. For some reason I think it's been cropped, but I couldn't find anything else related to it. Love though, right?
And yeah, any help appreciated. A prompt post like this a couple of years ago got me my merman!Jensen fic, The Dispossessed. I had an old partial fic that I had written but not posted that got me going on The Prince and the Raven, but since the bonk on the head, I'm finding getting started is really hard.
The image WAS cropped. phoenix1966 found the full sized original for me *bless their heart* And it's now in the banner. I THOUGHT there was something wrong with it. LOL!
Oh, it’s so beautiful! I thought, when I first saw it, it was an illustration for a baseball AU that my brain won’t release the name of, lol! One of my favorite Sam/Dean stories ever, too. Oy.

Hey there. I still have many bunnies and less time to write, so if any of these hit the spot - have fun. I would love to read anything you write!
- J2 live in a future world, where it's common for the rich and wealthy to clone themselves. Jared is the clone of one of the engineers in the clone program. He is a clone failure - rather than a carbon copy of his brilliant megalomaniac mentor, he just wants to pursue art, live a quiet life with dogs and - he likes boys. Jensen is also a failed clone. Overhearing his "father's" plans to "decommission" him he runs away. They somehow find each other and end up on the run from rich and powerful people who will do anything to keep the truth about the clone program failures from coming to light.
- S/D - the boys weren't really built for peace in the long term. Finding new adventures isn't as easy as they'd like with all of heaven out to keep them safe.
- If there is a J2/SnD crossover where the boys end up in a J2 universe that isn't a riff on Show, I don't know of it. I think it would be
( ... )
- of course I remembered a couple more. I've always remembered how Cas couldn't get all of the grace out of Sam. When Dean is a demon - Sam forces Dean to drink his blood in order to humanize him (can't rememer now if Crowley had already been through this and that's how Sam knows it will work). This weakens Sam and Dean breaks free and tempts Sam into drinking his demon blood. Much blood drinking ensues - because I like pretty things. I never have gotten much past this point.
- Jared is a failure as an angel (failure getes you assigned to hell) and has been given one last chance on cupid duty - helped by other cupids (CW friends) he tries his best. He's doing great until his assignment is Jensen. He just can't make the beautiful model fall in love with the intended female target. The arrow misses and Jensen is able to see Jared. It's obsessive love at first sight. What happens next?
So many goodies in both these posts. I've got to make a word file now and think these all through. Thanks for the Brainstorm off too! So much appreciated!!!
I looooove the Sam saves Dean from hell idea - especially since that was Kripke's original intent. I like Sam going heavy into witchcraft after Dean's death and the time travel idea too!

Do you have an idea what genre or tone you'd like to write? Adventure, horror, drama, serious or non-serious?

I'd be happy to beta it for you!
(I'm thinking of rereading it, just because I thought of it now!)
