This fic takes place five years after 6x11. It was written for the Queensland Flood Relief fandom auction.
Oh, god, this is beautiful and oh so heartbreaking

Small Small World by

Jensen Ackles has got the dream job of a former comic book fanboy: the creator of his very own series Small Small World which stars the man who would be perfect for Jensen if only he were real. Little does Jensen know that his world is about to get a whole lot smaller.
Loved the idea behind this. Wonderful storytelling. And the art! GUH! You must look at the art too.

Quick question
Jan. 24th, 2011 06:54 pmJust a question for my UK flisties, particularly those of you who are teachers.
Dan, my shift partner, is looking to improve his English skills. He dropped out of school early and he struggles with grammar and spelling. He's bright, but this is just stuff he never really learned. I'm helping him has best I can but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of a book that would help. It's just basic stuff like when to use a full stop and when to use a comma and the difference between been and being. Stuff like that.
Those of you who have done betas on my fics will know how hilarious it is me trying to teach someone when to use a comma ;)
Thanks!

Oh, God, I ship them so hard!
From Misha:
“The most embarrassing guilty pleasure that I would confess to is playing Scrabble with Jared. This is humiliating, and this is taking me down several pegs, but he usually beats me… No, he doesn’t know the words - that’s what drives me up the wall! He knows that certain combinations of letters are a word, but he doesn’t know the definition of the word. It’s really frustrating. For example, yesterday, he used the word fanion, and it is a word. It’s a small flag that a surveyor uses. He didn’t know that. He didn’t know what it meant, but he used it on the Scrabble board.”
GOD THEY ARE TOO PRECIOUS FOR THIS WORLD! I can just see it now. Jared being all smug when he wins and Misha getting all frustrated 'BUT YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT MEEEEEANS'
I need fic! FIIIIIIIIIIIC!
