beelikej: (J2)
I had planned to do a lot of things today and I did manage to do laundry, get myself dressed, write a challenge for [livejournal.com profile] nickngreg, sort out my recycable paper, catch up on the internet, answer my mail and eat three meals a day in between, but after dinner my ability to do useful things disappeared and I can't remember even half of all the things I had wanted to write an eleborate post about. I know it included the coming elections in The Netherlands and some sort of rant about work, but somehow my body and brain prefered to hang on the couch for a bit and not think about anything;)

Tomorrow I'm going on a trip to The Hague to celebrate the other brother's birtday with the rest of the family and I should really go do the dirty dishes that have been piling up for two (three?) weeks so I have clean plates and utensils on Monday. (I doubt I'll be in the mood to do them after traveling back and forth)

I'll just limit this post with the ficrec I promised. I know I said I was done recommending for the SPN_J2_BigBang, but this was one of the best stories I've read all year and I have to share.

The Extra Light Switch
Author: [livejournal.com profile] checkthemargins
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] little_jade
Pairing: Jared/Jensen (Jensen/Danneel, Jensen/OFC, implied Jared/OMCs)
Rating: NC-17
Word count: ~60,000
Warning: non-AU
Summary: Season four takes a lot from Jensen: his girl, his sanity, his ability to know where Dean ends and Jensen begins. It almost takes his best friend away too, but he and Jared find their way back. Jensen's got an empty apartment, and Jared's got a house that's always been a home, so Jensen moves back in and life returns to normal. Jensen and Jared, taking on the Supernatural and the Greater Vancouver Area.
Four years later, filming of season eight starts with a bang—casual liaisons in the foyer, blinding jealousy, girls and dogs and drama, oh my. Jared's hiding something, smiling way too much, and obsessing over an extra light switch in the living room. And Jensen? Well, Jensen's realizing that he might be falling in love.


REVIEW: *sighs happily* What a wonderful story! It had me choke up a couple of times (stupid men and their stupid feelings and the not talking about them). I love that everyone is a real person and not pure good or evil. Splendid stuff. I like where the author took a turn from real life as we know it and continued the story in season eight, which we have yet to see happen. Jensen's POV, in depth soulsearching, a good dose of hurt/comfort and -as mentioned above: men being men.
