FIC: Mildred: A College AU (J2, NC-17)

FINALLY. THANK GOD.

Title: Mildred: A College AU
Authors: causeways and walkawayslowly
Artist: heyhoolou, her art post is here. Tell her she is awesome!
Word Count: 62,131
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Official Summary: It is a truth universally acknowledged that a Jared in possession of his heterosexuality will immediately switch teams upon enrollment in college and first contact with Jensen Ackles.
Original Summary: Jared goes to college and is gay for Jensen Ackles. It's a real shocker, sports fans.
Real Summary: No really, that’s all that happens. For 60,000 words.
Disclaimer: Jared, Jensen, and all of the other real live people we mention belong to themselves. Sadly. The OCs are ours, all ours.
Authors' Notes:

Kelly thanks: walkawayslowly, for suggesting that we cowrite in the first place, and for waiting patiently for me to move past the laughing-in-her-face stage and into the "omg fine" stage; for not murdering me during the many, many periods of story-related emo; and for still being my very favorite person on the entire internet (and beyond!) at the end of it all. I can't think of anyone with whom I would rather have a child that is also a piece of fanfiction. You say that's slightly creepy? I say that's how we roll.
girlmostlikely, for a very fantastic beta, and for being one of my very first fandom friends, back when I was new and writing about Wincestuous adventures in prison. Those were good times.
nemoinis, for being so excellent as to offer to beta even when she did not know half of the authors, and for doing a fantastic job while she was at it.

Merrin thanks: causeways. I understand the key smash when I first asked her to cowrite now, and all the laughter. See, she'd done this before, and I really hadn't. If you are not familiar with the process, it is one arduous task. Similar to giving birth, I would imagine, or climbing a mountain, even though I have only done the latter and not the former. I have a new measure for a friend now, and it’s someone who will cowrite 60k of coming-of-age (and out-of-the-closet) rps with you and still be your friend at the end of it.
girlmostlikely, for agreeing to beta even though she knew how long it was going to be, and how much time we weren’t going to be able to give her. thanks also for pointing out our ACTUAL posting date as opposed to the posting date we THOUGHT we had. Love you, babe, you are the BEST.
nemoinis, for ALWAYS betaing everything, even my crappy popslash. and for being one of MY first fandom friends, back when I thought "slash" fic meant "stabbing people with pointy knives."

Kelly and Merrin both thank: heyhoolou, for picking our lame summary out of a whole list of summaries, and being an INCREDIBLY awesome artist; and the spn_j2_bigbang mods, for running this wild rumpus again.

This took WAY longer that I thought it would when I started writing it. That's because it's been rewritten like . . . four times. Thrilling, I know. Anyway, this is pretty different than the story I thought I was going to write when I started it, but it still ends up in the same place. So, cool.

Title: Jagged and Endlessly New
Author: causeways
Rating: NC-17
Pairings: JC Chasez/Chace Crawford, Chace Crawford/Ed Westwick
Word Count: 4,054
Disclaimer: None of these men have ever had any sort of homosexual relations with each other whatsoever.
Summary: "I think I'm moving out of my apartment," Ed says one afternoon on set. They're huddling in Chace's trailer between takes.
Author's Notes: This is the sequel to Some Surreal Country, but it should stand alone pretty well. walkawayslowly would have betaed this if she'd been around.

Also, I can move on now. THANK GOD.

Hahaha, yes. The first fic I am posting since October REALLY IS JC Chasez/Chace Crawford. EPIC SIGH.

Let me start by saying that I owe walkawayslowly my soul. She's had to hear about this story for way too freaking long, and she could not possibly care less about this pairing, and yet she has sat through every bit of my blabbing about it and has not even said "stfu before I punch you in the face" so much as once. This is because she is a saint.

Merrin not only sat through all of my blathering, but she ALSO looked at this when I said, "I think this is two stories. Do you think this is two stories?" and then after confirming that yes, it was two stories (Story #2, in which Chace Crawford is gay with Ed Westwick, is on its way!), she even freaking betaed. Because she loves me. Anyway! Story!

Title: Some Surreal Country
Author: causeways
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: JC Chasez/Chace Crawford
Word Count: 3,125
Disclaimer: Despite what every magazine and gossip blog ever has said, JC and Chace are not gay with each other. No, really, they're not.
Summary: JC Chasez and Chace Crawford were totally doing it.
Author's Notes: In case it was not clear from the above, I owe walkawayslowly BIG TIME. We're talking, like, a pony here.

Story #2 is coming soon! Far sooner than walkawayslowly would like.

ETA: Story #2, right here. Jagged and Endlessly New

2008 in review, and The Twilight Effect

stock: but when merrin is bad

causeways

January 1st, 2009

In 2008 I:

- graduated from college
- got a full-time job
- decided I actually like my job
- spent the entire month of November at my job, frequently to the exclusion of sleeping
- drove cross-country for the second time
- wrote far less than in 2007
- had far more ideas for stories, and better ones
- lost some very close friends
- made some better friends
- met up with some fandom friends (multiple times!)
- moved to New York
- worked in three states and lived in a fourth
- yelled from the roof of my apartment building on Election Day
- yelled from the streets of Lower Manhattan on Election Night
- kissed someone in an elevator
- bought the first decent bed I have ever owned
- fell a little out of love with SPN
- fell a lot in love with Entourage
- rediscovered board games
- discovered that I have an inner '50s hostess
- frequently decided that walking a mile and a half cross-town in the cold was a better choice than riding the train one more stop. Note to self: wrong.

2008, you were weird. Mostly good weird, but definitely weird. Overall I'm happier than I was this time last year, though, so 2008 can count for a win.

Oh! Haha! In 2008, also, I watched Twilight.

Unpopular fandom opinion time! I think Twilight kicks The Christmas Cottage's ass to hell and back. Both of these movies are pretty freaking atrocious! But Twilight is absolutely the sort of atrocious that is so bad it is also AWESOME, and it sinks its teeth into you and holds on for dear life and you LOVE IT. (YES YES. I KNOW ABOUT THE PUN.)

There are some pieces of fanfic that I have very similar relationships to. I shall call this multifandom recs list:

( Those stories you should really stop reading because the rational part of your mind is screaming for mercy and yet you cannot stop, ever, even if there were a pack of rabid dogs at your heels. Or beautiful, sparkly vampires.Collapse )

Regardless, the point of this is, Twilight! Really bad, but deeefinitely the kind of really bad that comes right back around to sort of totally amazing. I hear the books are extra awful, and Stephenie Meyer makes the universe cry, but I'm going to go read them now anyway. YUP.

FIC: Accidents Happen (J2, PG-13)

j2: small but queer

October 1st, 2008

I hear you all going, "causeways still writes fic? Whaaaat?" Trust me, I'm as surprised as you are.

Title: Accidents Happen
Author: causeways
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Word Count: 3,100
Disclaimer: Jared and Jensen belong to themselves.
Summary: Jared wakes up one morning, rolls over, and kisses Jensen. And then freaks out about it.
Author's Notes: A few days ago I was talking to balefully, and I said I wanted to write a fic about guys getting together after being in a club. And Lucy said, "Write it! Make it J2!" And I said, "No way, dude, they LIVE TOGETHER. If they were going to get together, it wouldn't be because of a CLUB." And then this fic happened. So this is for balefully. Also, big thanks to walkawayslowly, not just for being awesome, but also for betaing and killing all those colons.

Title: Workin' Hard for the Money
Author: causeways
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Word Count: 1,807
Disclaimer: Jared and Jensen belong to themselves and are not actually fucking in real life, nor is either of them a hooker.
Summary: After Jared gives Jensen the most fantastic blowjob of his life, Jensen runs into him again, and they go back to Jensen's house and fuck.
Author's Notes: This is the sequel to balefully's J2 hooker fic Heart of Gold, which she wrote for me and which you'll want to read first. I seem to have agreed with everyone who thought it needed a sequel, because I went and wrote one. Thanks to walkawayslowly for all kinds of good advice, as always, and to vinylroad for the title.

FIC: In the Telling (Sam/Dean, NC-17, 1,391 words) and some shortfic recs

The authors just got revealed over at the spn_gleeweek [guess the author competition], so I get to claim my story!

Title: In the Telling
Author: causeways
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Sam/Dean
Word Count: 1,391
Disclaimer: Belongs to Kripke, not to me!
Summary: After Sam gets him out of the deal, Dean fucks a lot of girls.
Author's Notes: Thanks to memphis86 for looking this over!

( In the Telling )

I sort of want to insert a long paragraph of blah about warnings and how I hate them (this is related because in spite of the fact that Dean sleeps with like a dozen girls in my spn_gleeweek fic I would never, ever warn for het in it), but I think I'll save that for another day.

Right now, I want to point you over to girlmostlikely's [accidental schmoop meme] where I got coerced into writing ~400 words of Sam/Dean, gruffness, the giver being more surprised than the receiver. Coerced, yup. Writing that was REALLY PAINFUL, let me just tell you. *g*

And speaking of the accidental schmoop meme and of the GtA competition, have some shortfic recs!

Jared/Jensen, off-season, missing each other by dontyouwaitup
PG | 565 words | from the accidental schmoop meme
I love the matter-of-fact-ness and also their banter SO MUCH.

Sam/Dean, taking a bath together by memphis86
R-ish | 556 words | from the accidental schmoop meme
My comment on this was something along the lines of, "I just made a happy noise so high-pitched that ONLY THE DOGS HEARD IT." First time Sam/Dean in a BATHTUB.

The lady of the right hand by fleshflutter
pre-series Dean-centric gen | PG-13 | 1,789 words | from spn_gleeweek
Dean's last night in New Orleans with that voodoo gig.
This is one of those fics that makes me wonder why I don't read more gen than I do. Or maybe it's just that fleshflutter's really awesome. Dean and a TOTALLY FANTASTIC original character.

Joie de Vivre by memphis86
Sam/Dean | PG-13 | 1,906 words | from spn_gleeweek
This is just a really cool short fic that TOTALLY MESSES WITH YOUR MIND. I'm a big fan of that. Sam in the South of France!

The Eyes Have It by __tiana__
Jared/Jensen | PG-13 | 1,200ish words
This isn't actually from either the accidental schmoop meme OR from the GtA entries, but it's short and also all about Jared realizing that there are 28374 pictures of Jensen staring at him like he is COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH HIM, so I really don't see how this could not get included.

*

I haven't actually read all of the spn_gleeweek fics yet, so there may be a part two to this after I get my act together. And now back to doing . . . whatever it is you do at your internship after you are already finished researching replacement refrigerator parts. Writing fic?? We shall see.

nobody else around to interrupt us or ask if you want to get corrupt as the time allows

Happy Saturday! Have a short list of things that are happy-making! This list is totally random, so first I will cunningly distract you with a rec!
