Distracted By Something Shiny

A little something I wrote last year for menel and am only now getting around to posting. So Happy Birthday this year and Happy Birthday last year, babe! I freaking love Tim Gutterson so it wasn't that hard for me to fall down the whole Tim/Raylan rabbit-hole, but still, I'm going to blame menel for it. 5,777 words of flirting, guns & coffee. Enjoy!

( Today had to be better than yesterday. Nobody would shoot at him today. That was Tim’s new motto. ‘No one’s gonna shoot at me today.’ )

My Halloween story for the year! 3,130 words of ridiculous fun Avengers fic in which Thor wants to learn about trick-or-treating and Tony makes everyone dress up. (I had to drop that X-Files fic I was working on because I've been too under the weather for that much plot, but I swear, I'm going to finish it for next year!) This is for all of you - hope your Halloween's were good ones!

( Bruce wouldn’t have even known it was a Thursday if it hadn’t been for the regular Thursday morning mandatory Avengers meeting/breakfast fiasco that Tony said Nick Fury demanded they all have for a proper weekly check-in, but that Bruce was almost certain was actually Pepper’s idea. )

jojothecr! Do you remember how Jensen wore that jacket to that convention and then you and I made a lot of, uh, comments about said jacket and then I started writing fic about Jared's reaction to the jacket...but the fic kind of fell off and didn't get finished? I finished it! I pulled it out in honor of your birthday and got that baby done! And okay, your birthday was last week, but still...it is finished! Hope you enjoy! 3,432 words of humor-filled romance and Jensen's clothes! (mild handwave on the timeline).

At long last, here’s The Nephew’s back-to school fic. It’s my fourth Fic-For-Kids thus far and I am really getting the hang of writing for a younger audience. The Nephew is only suppose to get fics for his birthday and Christmas, but clearly I am a sucker because I got talked into writing this. I decided on Spiderman and Iceman because I used to friend-ship them so hard when I was younger. Spiderman was my favorite superhero for years and years, so I wanted to try him next. As for Iceman, when The Nephew was about three years old, he would tell us all these long stories about adventures he went on with his brother, Iceman. So this seemed fitting. It’s also a story about making friends at a new school because The Nephew himself started at a new school this year. He assures me he has made three friends already.

Spiderman & His Amazing Friends - Altered-Reality, Angst, Drama, Gen, Friendship, Fic-For-Kids with Bobby Drake, Peter Parker and a little Aunt May and Mrs. Drake. Rated PG for bigotry against mutants and mild violence. 4,053 words beta’d by the supremely awesome liptonrm. - Bobby Drake hopes this new school will be different from the last. Or the one before that. Or the one before that.

Dedication: To The Nephew. Because I love Spiderman and you love Iceman and I love you!

My Valentine's Day fic! Hey, I am pretty happy with the fact that I am getting this up less than a week since Valentine's Day occurred. This is a record for me. This story was seriously suppose to be 1,200 words but somehow I kept adding more and more scenes until it was over 4,000 words. I can't remember the last time I broke 4,000 words. Besides adorable!Dean/Cas, I am also really happy with all the added interactions Dean has with everyone else in his life.

A bazillion thanks to liptonrm for the beta!

Summary: Dean wants to buy something special for someone special for Valentine’s Day. First he needs to figure out what to buy, where to get the money and which special classmate to give it to. Dean/Cas (age 12), Sam, John, Bobby + Various Cameos, AU, Fluff, Holiday, Romance, Wee!chesters, Rated PG with some Mild Language and Kissing and 4,444 words.

My lovely Flist for Valentine's Day - this one is for all of you! /hearts and kisses and rainbows/

It's a Supernatural/Firefly Crossover! It's Cas-centric. This is the first time I have ever done a full-on Cas POV. It made for a different writing style than I am used to, trying to capture his voice - but it flowed pretty easily, which is a good sign, I hope.

I'm a firm believer in considering something "General" if it isn't about the romance - but there is an undercurrent of slash - (with all my favorite guys in the same place, it was bound to happen) - and a het romance for Castiel - (if you want to know what it is, it's under Characters/Pairings in the Header Info). The story itself is more about Cas' journey - not quite an angel, not quite a human, and stuck in the Black.

I wrote this halfway through season Five of Supernatural. The Apocalypse hadn't happened yet - so let's say post-horrific-and-angsty-apocalypse AU for all three boys. Firefly timeline is set between the end of the series and the beginning of the movie - (read: no Book, because Book meets Castiel is a whole different story).


Castiel is being swallowed by The Black and losing his Heaven. Also, they’re on the Firefly ship. PG-13. 4,628 words. Totally written for The Guy Cousin, because he deserves Serenity.

( It had started about three days into their trip. It got worse every day. The farther into the Black they went, the less of Heaven he could feel. It was slipping away from him and Castiel found himself desiring more and more mortal things. )

liptonrm, look, look! Remember twelve years ago when I said I was working on something for you! I finished it! Because I lost all my So You Think You Can Dance episodes and you totally got them for me! So, naturally, I wrote you Dean/Cas fic.

Extra special shout out to menel, for reassuring me that I do not, in fact, suck.

This is not the first Dean/Cas fic I have ever written, but it is the first I have ever posted - which is weird, because they are my SPN OTP of Love.

It's Dean/Cas, with Angel-Turned-Human!Castiel, and some Sam. AU (altered reality), Humor, Romance, Angst(ish) (<--honestly I hate category listings). Castiel is confused about how to be human. Dean is just plain confused. They’ll figure it out. 4,578 words!

( So, they’d accidentally turned Castiel into a human. It happens. Dean wasn’t going to sweat it too much. )
