Ahhhh. *sighs in relief* So glad to hear someone that thinks the same as me. I just posted a request to Spnstoryfinders the other day, asking for long bottom!Jared/Sam fics, and I MIGHT have mentioned in the request, that my excuse was I couldn't find too many, that they seemed kinda rare, and I was hit with a couple of comments like, "This year's bigbangs are 80% bottom Jared." And exactly what you just put there, someone told me bottom!Sam/Jared isn't a rarity, when..I know good and well it IS! And I see TONS of requests for ONLY bottom!Jensen/Dean fics, and no one talks back to them whatsoever. :( People are unfair.
I know, I was tracking your request! That's part of why the kink meme thing bugged me even more!
Bottom!Sam/Jared is rare, at least when compared to the amount of bottom!Dean/Jensen fic. And that's when we're lucky enough to find Sam in a pairing at all (since Dean/Castiel has become so popular and Dean gets a majority of the rare pairs as well).
When I read the comment on your post about bottom!Sam/Jared not being a rarity, my first thought was that they must read bottom!Jensen/Dean or top!Jared/Sam because only people who aren't bottom!S/J fans would say something like that. And like the brat I am, I checked their profile. They're part of the Bottom Jensen and Dean communities as well as the top Jared/Sam comm. *called it*
*snickers* I do the exact same thing lately. I've noticed that if anyone mouths off about bottom!Sam/Jared fans, or even hurt!Sam/Jared fans, it's usually cuz they're bottom!Jensen/Dean fans. And then I feel like a bitch for being mad about it, cuz everyone deserves their preference. And you're right, Dean's in all the rare pairings, and if it's threesome or foursomes, the focus is always on Dean. But..I almost HATE bottom and/or hurt!Jensen/Dean fics, and yet I don't flame people who do. :( Wouldn't dream of it, cuz it's just not fair. And most fics I read lately, if it's bottom/hurt!Jensen/Dean, then Jared/Sam is usually an asshole trying to beg Jensen/Dean for forgiveness through most it...but oh well..I gotta stop, I'm feeling bitchy again. XD Did you read insertcode11's bigbang for this year? That is by far THEE best bigbang I've read! ;D
UGH, I know! I hate seeing how Sam/Jared turns into an asshole if it's bottom!Jensen/Dean. I know it doesn't always turn out that way, but so many of them do. And I've read bottom!Jensen fics that I love (2 on my top 5 favorite RPS fics are bottom!Jensen), but it's because Jared is his sweet, lovable self. Goofy and puppy-like and gets his vulnerable moments and it's equal. There's no toppy/bastardness that I see so often in top!Jared fic.
I probably wouldn't have read her fic originally because of the length (I don't generally start reading fics that are longer than ~25k because I can't handle all the angst and suspense packed into longer fics a lot of the time. Another funny thing because most of my top 5 RPS fics are really long). But yeah, I actually got to beta it and experience the amazingness that was Lengths and I'm so glad because otherwise I would have missed out on one of the best pieces of fiction I've ever read.
*snorts* It's instances like this that make me want to issue a nasty blanket statement about all bottom!Jensen fans when I know that's not true.
I get the OP would be upset. But really, the person liked your prompt enough to see it, just with the characters switched. I would be miffed, but happy someone else liked my idea.
And, IDK which meme you're talking about, but can I just say? Most prompts for kink memes aren't that original to begin with. I'm just saying. >.>
I'M GLAD YOU LOVE IT WHEN I'M BITCHY. *CLINGS BACK*
UGH, yeah. I get being upset, especially if the repost gets a fil when your own didn't. But I just find it ridiculous that it became an issue at all when it's happened tons before and nobody ever seems to get upset.
Freakin' bottom!Jensen/Dean fans. I get that there are nice ones out there, but it's really hard not to group them all together.
Like the Destiel shippers.
Man, I really am bitchy today. Good thing I'm trying to participate in that tumblr blackout thing today or I might lose some followers.
It's really stupid and pathetic that over half of the hate and wank in this fandom is over Ships and things having to do with them. I mean Jesus this is all for fun get over yourself. I've seen prompts on other meme's taken without permission before (like mine) and I didn't jump their bones I just said hey that's my prompt and done with it. She should have said hey I linked that prompt in another meme and if someone wants to write it I as in me the original OP wants bottom!Jensen but if someone wants to wrote bottom!Jared for the other girl that's fine too. That would have solved all of their problems just ugh....this fandom sometimes. The things we fight over
But yeah. It didn't need to become an issue at all. So someone took your prompt and turned it around. What's the big deal. Especially since the OP asked for bottom!Jensen which has a better chance at getting filled than the new post anyways, at least in my experience with watching this and the blindfold meme. *rolls eyes* PEOPLE MAN. I'm not even Dean's biggest fan, but he hit the nail on the head: Demons I get, people are just crazy.
So what two people were going at it over that? I want the juice! Was this person like being all RAWR THAT'S MY PROMPT BITCH or what? Just some people are ridiculous
Most of it happened anonymously. And the person who stood up for the OP is also a top!Jared/bottom!Jensen prompter. And the person who told everyone to cool it does both and while I'm glad they got everything stopped before it turned into a huge deal, it's still annoying that this person got told to reword/come up with their own prompt rather than taking it word for word. It really wouldn't bother me if I hadn't seen it done so often before with no comments or reprimands.
Bottom!Jared/Sam is rare anymore out there. *nods* It use to be rare to see bottom!Jensen/Dean (which was so nice. LOL - this coming from a hard core bottom!Jared/Sam fan) but now it is totally the other way around. One of the HUGE reasons I don't read fics anymore. Alas, you won't find that on my board! *winks* And even in the rare fic where Jensen/Dean does bottom, he still kinda tops. LOL
Totally with you on this one! I got a review for one of my fics that stated they'd love to have seen who topped in the relationship between Sam and Gabriel because, in their words 'it's hard to tell, Sam's all meek and shy now but he's still really tall.' I kinda gaped a little. Then politely told them to check out all my other fics and see who they thought would bottom. *snicker* Come on!!! With hair that floppy, how can Jared/Sam not bottom. I mean, if all the top!Jared/Sam people can claim his height as the reason for him to top, dammit, we can claim his hair for the exact opposite reason! Nods
