you won't make yourself a name if you follow the rules

Emma Lydia Winchester and Clairestiel Novak are in my head again. Get them out, please. Or give me an original story they'll be happy in. I am too many seasons behind on Supernatural, with no intention of catching up, to write the specific shenanigans they want to play around in.

ETA: BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR because what I really needed was a new original setting with epic potential story.

In conclusion, I do not believe it's accurate to sum up Supernatural as just a show about "straight cis white Christian guys."

TELL ME MORE OH WISE ONE

Okay, so I figured out how to make YGO have a massive effect on SPN in the crack YGO/SPN crossover wherein Bobby Singer is Mutou Yuugi's father. Next question: how do I make SPN have a massive effect on YGO? Bobby being Yuugi's father doesn't count.

Comment here if you want to play, and I will give you three-six fictional characters or couples couples that I associate with you, and you make an entry in your journal talking about those couples and fanworks that you wish the universe would create for you.

somnolentblue gave me October Daye, Anna/Ruby from Supernatural, and Odette and Odile from Swan Lake.

I really want the universe to create me the fanwork where Toby figures out that there's a reason the hope chests do what they do, and a reason she and her mother can do (and Gillian presumably could have done) the exact same thing. I'm sure there are reasons. I even think I know what those reasons are. But I don't have time to write this fic myself. (If I ever do, it'll be part of Changeling's Choice.)

I also want the spinoff series featuring Anna and Ruby, resurrected, with some perspective on the whole Lucifer deal (I'm convinced Ruby had no idea Lucifer planned to destroy everything), and ready to kick some monster ass.

Re Odette and Odile: Basically Mercedes Lackey's The Black Swan, only with more Odette PoV (she is not a PoV character in the novel) and less no rape committed by a PoV character with whom we're supposed to sympathize (Siegfried).

No, brain. No. We are not putting Mazaki Anzu in the same vicinity as Dean Winchester. Nor Kujaku Mai. No, not even in the 'verse where Bobby Singer is Yuugi's father. That would go really poorly. Not that Anzu and Mai couldn't handle themselves, but, no. Bad idea.

I have a confused. Apparently the Supernatural spinoff just cast its leads. *IMDBs the names* To everybody's shock, one of them is not a white dude.

The confused is something else, though. If you compare this report with this report, note that one mentions brown dude's dead fiance, and one mentions brown dude's dead fiancee.

This is kind of a crucial distinction, folks. Canonically-queer brown lead character? Sold, even given that the guy our lead is queer with is dead and also there's no sign yet of any women in the cast. Straight male lead character with dead lady backstory? Fuck the women-in-refrigerators bullshit, no matter how much I want to encourage brown leads.

If Oz is a real place in Supernaturalverse, what about other portal fantasyworlds? Like, say, Narnia?

Probably won't see Narnia in canon for Doylist reasons—Oz is public domain and Narnia is not—but on a Watsonian level I bet we could.

Things I am not doing: vidding Sam to Florence + the Machine's "Lover to Lover".

My first fandom was Sailormoon. I remember inventing my own Outer Scouts before discovering—and I don't know how I discovered this—that it was a Japanese show and there was more to it than had aired in the US. I latched on to the Sailormoon Millennia Trilogy fanfic mostly, which I think may have been after we got S and SuperS in the States? Never did get Stars as far as I know, and SMMT has an alternate to Stars as well as a prequel and sequel to the series. My first published fanfic was fanfic of SMMT, and it died with Geocities, and while I know it still exists on the Wayback Machine, please do not go looking for it.

My second fandom was Harry Potter. I spent every free moment between bus arrival at my high school and the bell for homeroom in the library, saving fanfics to a floppy disk so I could read them in leisure at home. And I read the first five books dozens of times. I wasn't as impressed with the sixth, only read it maybe a half dozen times, and the seventh I think I've only read twice. Needless to say, it's been a while since I've been in that fandom, except for Anne Walsh's Dangerverse. I wrote some fanfic for that, too, which still exists on fanfiction.net.

My third fandom was Supernatural. Lots of y'all know me through Supernatural. This was also my first slash fandom. I got into it the summer before season five, saw Lazarus Rising on a rerun and got hooked, and I was so busy marathoning the first three seasons that I missed the reruns of episodes two and three of S4. (Also the rerun of the stripper episode, but I think that one just didn't reair.) And I was reading spn_j2_bigbang as I went. I was a little confused that summer, but once I got it all straightened out in my head I had a blast. I still mean to finish the Epic Bechdel Fixit Project. That's gonna be entertaining, though...

I've had flings with other fandoms, Community, Lost Girl, synecdochic et al's Clan Mitchell Stargateverse, but they were never my fandom, you know?

I seem to be between fandoms at the moment. Unless we count Fairy Tales and Related Fandoms. Or Blow That Trumpet Gabriel, which really shouldn't count as a fandom for me because I'm the canon creator... I'm really enjoying this year's Yuletide fandom, but for obvious reasons I can't name it, and equally obviously there's not a whole lot out there for it.
