I have no life either...but I do really. This is my life! : D

I love fandom and fans, but the whole Dean/Castiel pairing is like watching lemmings off a cliff. Especially in light of the fact that in addition to what you're saying (no chemistry, no affection), we've seen a whopping 10 minutes of Cas and we're already at ep 7 tonight. I asked around; people were desperate to be able to slash someone on this show and couldn't, understandably, get behind the wincest. Desperate, I tell you. So I understand that part.

What's come out in fanfic (I've read a few) is doing some interesting things with, given Cas's threats to Dean, the whole dominance/sumbmission issue, or they posit that Cas is going to have s-e-x with Dean to try to relate to him better, to get Dean to trust him, and the writers seem to forget or don't understand that Dean has sex with relative strangers to have sex and not to get closer to them. I could buy the whole D/C pairing if I felt it was being done realistically - I want motivation and reasonable, within-character actions, but what I've been getting so far is a bunch of "...and Dean saw the angel's cock and it was a beautiful thing..." Can't go there. Still waiting. Not getting it.

Of course you know about the Big Bang stories, which address the very issue of the need/desire for longer, more in depth stories about them getting together, right? Those are pretty wonderful, because the writers are good and they take it all so seriously, just the way I like it. I think you think exactly the way I do about this. I'm too serious for my own good, but I want to watch the process of them falling in love and taking that last step towards wincest. This isn't just slash, with two men are having sex, this is incest, fer crying out loud! I don't care who you are, that's a big step to take if you're going to have a relationship - I want angst and I want agony over the thing. And then I want good porny stuff.

I have a rec list, if I've not already given it to you. On my LJ here, *points to the left side of the page* you'll see links and "Amalthia's Rec List of SPN." Abondanza, baby. (Favorite PWP is Plutogirl10's Into the Woods.)

Hahaha, yes fandom is my life, too! My mom would be so proud that I sit around and talk about gay incestuous sex all day long, LOL!

See, the whole Dean/Castiel thing squicks me in the way that the Sam/Ruby thing does (only it's freaking me out that Sam/Ruby might actually BECOME canon, which is my one and only MAJOR issue w/ this season, cause I do not want my Sammy to become a rapist!). But...Castiel is not HUMAN, and I just don't understand why people think that's hot. I mean, Misha Collins is nice to look at, sure, but I dunno, I guess I don't do slash just for the sake of it, but rather cause I see something between two characters that's actually worth exploring. But I just don't see that between those 2 at all. It's not that kind of relationship between them.

Yes, when I want my super fluffy schmoopy fics, I read J2, cause those boys are just so adorable and sweet that it makes your teeth hurt just looking at them, lol. But when I want buckets of angst and drama (and even action/adventure, if it's a case-plot along w/ the porn), I go right to the wincest, lol. And yes, I do know about Big Bang!! I spent MANY MANY hours this summer locked away in my room reading through some of those. So very good. Though so may of them are AUs, and I generally don't read those as much, so I'm always on the lookout for other really good, longer fics that explore the boys a bit before the porning happens, lol.

And oooh, I'll have to check out that rec list! Thanks! :D

I'm squicked like you are. I can't see Ruby/Sam and I don't think Ruby/Sam will become canon. The statement Padalecki made was just him talking to a reporter, giving them something, anything to make them go away. IMO.

You're welcome for the rec list! That should keep you out of trouble for a while....

Yeah, I really hope Jared was just kinda running his mouth to keep the reporters at bay, cause I'd be very upset if Sam/Ruby became canon.

Lol, well I hope it keeps me busy for a while, cause I seem to keep getting into trouble when I open my mouth in my LJ. Time to jump head-first into a pile of juicy fic, lol.

I'm sure he was, I'm almost positive. Or maybe Kripke told him to say it to stir things up, who knows. : D

Getting into trouble, eh? Well...if you're keen on some dark angst, I'll self pimp myself...click on the big bang link there *points to the left again* and, I'm told, you will need kleenex.

Lol, some dark angst may be what I need right now. Could be very cathartic. *goes off to find links*
