    After Brian handed Dom his keys and got himself arrested, he knew life would never be the same again. He just didn't know how bad it could really get before it got better. A year in Chino was just the start.

  2. Summary

    The song that inspired this verse truly summarizes it very well, this is an excerpt.
    "I still see us behind the chutes, standin' in the sun,
    Light reflecting off the shiny buckles that we'd won.
    Farmin' boys from everywhere, just a ropin' in our dreams,
    Buckin' down the highway in old trucks and faded jeans.

    Cheyenne days to Fort Worth nights, we drove every inch of road,
    We often spoke our dreams out loud, sharing rooms and dirty clothes.
    The bandaged up, the broken ones, too tough to ever cry,
    The one we won the big go around, the drinks were ours to buy.

    Days were filled with mundane chores that kept us lean and mean,
    But our nights were spent out dancin' with the fairest girls we'd seen.
    Regaling them with wild ass tales, that weren't that far from true,
    There wasn't a single favor asked that your old pal wouldn't do."

    'Let The Ponies Run'

  3. Summary

    When I read the epilogue of Deathly Hallows, I hated it. It took me years to go back and reread the entire canon again because of that one chapter that so thoroughly annoyed me, and after finishing it, this happened.

    EWE fic wherein Ginny died, Fred didn't, and Hermione and Harry are both several steps ahead of Ron, as usual.

    Ron doesn't mind. He likes the view from back there.

  4. Summary

    "You must know this. You're too smart not to know this. They paint the world full of shadows and then tell their children to stay close to the light, their light, their reasons, their judgments, because in the darkness, there be dragons. But it isn't true, we can prove that it isn't true. In the dark, there is discovery, there is possibility, there is freedom."

  5. Summary

    Exactly what it says on the tin.

    This will be a collection of shorts (I hope!) set in what is evidently going to be a whole 'verse of mostly fluffy suburban Cougar/Jensen fics.

    Summary

    Crowley woke up with his head pillowed on Aziraphale's stomach, his arm thrown over the angel's thighs and his long legs dangling off the end of the bed nearly to the floor. Aziraphale's hand was in Crowley's hair, absently petting him like a lazy cat. And like a lazy cat, Crowley stretched, muffling a yawn into the line of Aziraphale's hip and grumbling wordlessly into the warm skin.

    "Good morning, dear," Aziraphale answered, as if Crowley's sleepy snarl had been a cheerful morning greeting. "There's coffee for you on the nightstand."

    Summary

    Clint has this thing. It’s a very simple and fun thing (in Clint’s opinion) that he enjoys doing to his friends. It's something that has been done by many others to their respective peers since the beginning of time, when humanity first rose from the earth and started walking forward. It’s a surprise hug.

    Summary

    This was my take at the McSpirk Halfway to a Threeway Challenge on Tumblr. It was a few years ago. Jim and Spock are already together and trying to figure out how to tell Bones that they want him to be a part of their relationship. Just being honest is usually best but when has Jim ever listened to anything Spock says?

    Just. God. Perfection, and beauty, and so many lush mental images and feels and just... Yes.

    Perfection covers it well. <3

    Summary

    After four years of solitude on a remote island, Dean’s been through hell. But he’s home, he’s healing, and he has a very special gift for a man he’s never met. (Basically this is an AU of the movie Cast Away that takes place after the island.)

    I hated Castaway, but it LOVE this story. Just, so much.

    Sometimes I dealt with life better than others. At multiple points I've just ... stopped participating and stayed home. It was easier. Once it lasted for nearly three years. Dean's issues, trying to rejoin life? Been there, done that. I still get hinky in crowds and I can't sleep unless I have my own pillow and my familiar music playing, preferably with my dogs asleep on my feet.

    I saved this on my computer, it's THAT good.
