You're welcome...and sorry? Lol. I kept thinking, "I'll just wait until [insert challenge name here] is finished and then I'll post some recs."
But there are awesome challenges all year round and so much amazing fic being posted all the time... so, the article prompted me to just do it! :)

Hope you enjoy 'em! :)

Kroki_refur's is a gem, and I love the Dine Winchesters (I was lucky enough to pick up one of her Dine stories in a bang as artist though the art didn't turn out the way I wanted...). I can't wait to read the Aussie one! Dean is Aussie at heart, ain't he... :D

Yep, I love the English Winchesters. I chuckled my way through that story and I thought turning Bobby into a Scot was quite inspired! A lot of fun.
