spn_masquerade
Trick or Tease: Round opens October 24th

It's back! Come one, come all, and play with us!

Hey everyone! We're throwing a fanworks aution to help out theatregirl7299. There are already many great people offering, art, fic, and crafts. My own offer is here. Please check us out and help us support a fellow fan!

I claimed 5 fills written for the 5th round of the spn_masquerade. All of them are now cleaned up, expanded slightly, and posted to AO3. (Since masquerade is a kink-fest, some of these are a little more out there than my usual fare, heed the warnings and the tags on AO3.)

Wrong Delivery Gone Right: Jared is an unsuspecting delivery guy who stumbles upon a porn shoot and is promptly mistaken for the new guy. He wants to say no but then he sees the guy he’s supposed to fuck; J2, 4,1k, porn shoot with bossy topping-from-the-bottom porn star Jensen and mad director Chad

Jurassic Love: In Jurassic Park, Jared and Jensen are dinosaurs in love. Fences can’t keep them apart and it doesn’t matter what species they are — they always find a way to cuddle. 8 different dino incarnations; J2, 4,5k, ratings vary for chapters (yes, there’s the occasional dino porn…. It was for masquerade, okay? And dinos deserve some lovin too)

Written in Blood: Jared ruthlessly conquers the world for his Emperor. Jensen is warming his bed; J2, 3,3k, Warning: major character death! Because I know that’s not for everyone, I wrote a second fill for the barbarian Jared prompt:

Conquered: Barbarian Jared and his army conquer the city. When he demands tribute, Jensen volunteers. Jared thinks Jensen is another prize he can win but Jensen has his own plans; J2, 4,4k, no one dies, this one has a happy ending!

New Year, New Tricks: Jensen and Jeff celebrate New Year's. Jensen thinks they should ring in the New Year with sex, even if they are at a friend's party; Jensen/JDM, 1,2k, outdoor sex, written for my Hungry verse but can be read as a stand alone

I hope you'll enjoy!

Title: Hold Your Head Up High In Disgrace
Artist: blondebitz
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Word count: ~45,000
Summary: If you ask Jensen, Jared is a punk-ass little thief who’s not as irresistible as he thinks he is. If you ask Jared, Jensen is a mean, vindictive bastard, who’s definitely not as handsome as he thinks he is. But the world of intergalactic smuggling is small and Jared and Jensen keep crossing paths.
Just when they’re about to admit that maybe the other isn’t so bad after all, their pasts rear their ugly heads. When the stakes are their lives instead of the next shiny object, Jared and Jensen have to decide how far they’re willing to go to save themselves—and each other.
Warnings/kinks: Space-AU, show-level violence, criminals & smugglers
Notes: Written as an auction fic for the Puerto Rico Fandom Fundraiser for the lovely Kim who provided the original prompt.
Title from the song Strychnine by Floater (with many thanks to the lovely cleflink for suggesting it!)
This story would not have come together without brainstorming help from keep_waking_up and my Tangy.
Many, so so many thanks to dancing_adrift, who brainstormed, betad, cheerleadered me on when I thought I would never make it. You are the most beautiful rock, my dear. I would not have made it without you. More thanks also to ilikaicalie for heroic last minute beta help.
I also have to thank my lovely artist blondebitz for picking my story, making wonderful art for it (look at Misha, he's so adorable!) and putting up with my uncoordinated ass through it all. I’m so sorry I was such a failboat! Thanks for all your patience! Check out her masterpost on LJ or on AO3 and leave her all the love she deserves!

In spnspringfling tradition, I had to write a rarepair and with the wonderful prompts I got from sometimesalways, I could not resist this....

Title: What's In A Name?
Pairing: Jeff/Jensen
Rating: R
Words: 2,300
Summary: Jensen has a thing about pet names. He doesn’t like them. Never has. Until Jeff.
Kinks/Warnings: space, amnesia, angst and schmoop, exessive use of the word sweetheart
Notes: many thanks to ilikaicalie for the beta work!


(I also completely forgot to post about the newest installment of the Underneath series, so in case anyone on here doesn't get notifications from ao3, I finally got around to writing Jensen's family vacation: Family Matters)

Title: Anger Is A Killing Thing

Pairing: pre Jared/Jensen

Rating: R

Words: 5,600

Summary: Jared is eleven when his mother is murdered.

Warnings/Kinks: minor character death, derogatory language, crime and murder

Notes: Part of my Underneath verse. Takes place about 14 years before the main story. I’ve been working on this on and off for a while. I had planned on writing Jensen’s vacation first but Jared wanted to say his piece, so I had to give him his own story. Title by Louis L’Amour.

Many, many thanks to keep_waking_up for help and handholding and to ilikaicalie for outstanding beta efforts. All remainig mistakes are my own.

...and 2018 New Year’s resolutions writing list rough plan

Hey everybody! Happy New Year to all of you who celebrated, general happy days to all of you who celebrate New Year at another time.
This year was kind of insane for me and unexpected in many ways. I finished the last leg of my education (maybe), got a scholarship I applied for and traveled over the atlantic for a new job. I’ve been really lucky with co-workers and the work itself but it was definitely a challenge. After the initial adjustment, I thought I’d have soooo much time to write, but new opportunities and responsibilities came up and I did not.
Unfortunately, my writing time suffered (AO3 informs me I have only posted 170k this year which is a little less than my usual 220-260, and at least 40k for this year’s bangs were written in 2016, so…) and I realized once again how much I miss writing when I can’t do it. I also miss fandom time, though it has been a while since I watched the show. I miss it, and everytime I see the pic of the boys it makes me miss it more but it’s getting harder for me to watch the new eps, so I don’t know if I’ll get back to that. I’m mostly on twitter these days because it’s quick and easy to navigate.
Anyway. Here’s my list of writings this year. I’m mostly happy with what I managed this year and I got incredibly lucky with artist collaborations.

January: Raven's Fight (Jensen/JDM, fantasy AU, 20752 words, X-mas exchange 2016 posted way late)
March: Starcrossed (J2, space AU, 54672 words, RB with amberdreams, unfortunately still a WIP but there are plans!)
April: To Slay A Dragon (J2, fantasy AU, 2890 words, Springfling)
July: Breaking the Ice (J2, fantasy AU, 69973 words, Bigbang with dancing_adrift, probably my own fave that I write this year though I have a feeling it’ll be tie with Starcrossed as soon as that’s done...)
August: Got Me So Blind I Can't See (J2, fantasy AU, 19994 words, auction fic)
September: Long Time No See / Home (J2, 4871 words, smpc)
December: Underneath It All (J2, mob/FBI AU, ~100k, I have been posting this verse since 2014 and now I’ve completely edited and expanded it)
Secrets (J2, Underneath timestamp, 1159 words)
Beating the Odds (J2, sci-fi/dragon sports AU, 7314 words, written for the spn_j2_xmas exchange)


My list for next year is a little shorter but of course, as always, there is a list. So, to hold myself accountable, here it is:

Reversebang with quickreaver (due to crazy rl, I completely flunked out of rb but Chris has been great and forgiving and I plan to write that fic promptly!)
Reversebang with amberdreams (from last year *hides face in shame* I finished the first part of the fic, and this year, I plan on finally finishing the rest!)
Auction fic for the Puerto Rico fundraiser
Unofficial auction fic for somer who also donated for Puerto Rico
Underneath verse: I have three little more than halfway finished timestamps: Jared’s origin story, Jensen’s vacation and a fic where someone gets shot. Considering the speed with which I have been updating this fic, three timestamps are ambitious but I’ll try.

And that’s it. Since my contract was renewed for another year my job is safe and I hope I’ll have a lot of time to write :)
Thanks for everyone still sticking with my writing and if you’re waiting for updates, thank you for your patience!

There is a wonderful fanworks auction on dreamwidth for Puerto Rico with many goodies from our fandom and others.

My offer for a fic is here: https://fandomlovespuertorico.drea…

Okay, super wonderful artist of E3006, if you come to see who this person with the weird name is that claimed you, I would love to meet you and talk about your beautiful RB piece! You can contact me here or on twitter or email or tumblr or everywhere really!
