Not dead

HELLO!

Rumours of my death were greatly exaggerated ;)

I just wanted to check in and let people know that I'm still around, kind of. I've got myself into a bit of rut with LJ wherein I don't have time to check it on the days when I'm working and then on my days off the idea of trying to get caught up is so daunting that I read a few pages of my flist and give up.

I promise I don't hate any of you and I'm not deliberately ignoring anyone. I'm just really struggling to find time for LJ. Twitter is so much easier to just dip in and out of and I don't have to worry about scrolling back through loads of posts.

So, sorry. If you want to de-friend me I totally understand.

Monday fic recs

Dean/Castiel
Among the Wreck by lady_deathangel
The fate of the world has been decided and two human vessels are the key to the final battle that will trigger the apocalypse. Not content to leave anything up to destiny, Heaven takes matters into its own hands. But a simple assassination is complicated by the interference of one of their own, leaving the future in limbo and the angel Castiel to pay the ultimate price for his actions.
But what should be the end is only the beginning. The angel’s fall from grace crash lands him in the body of a young Jimmy Novak as his soul departs. The process leaves Castiel with no memories of his celestial past; he knows himself only as Jimmy Novak, a sickly child whose overnight recovery is nothing short of miraculous. But as Jimmy’s life starts anew, Dean Winchester’s has all but ended.
It’s under these circumstances that these two boys come together and forge a friendship that slowly develops into something more. But their path was never meant to be easy and fate eventually intercedes, thrusting them both into the roles they were always meant to play: the angel and the hunter. The Righteous Man and his Protector.
Absolutely fantastic long and plotty fic which had me gripped from beginning to end. Fantastic blend of AU and canon.

Sam/Castiel
Between the Stitches by lustmordred
Even though Sam really loves the guy, being the damsel in distress all the time sucks.
Oh, god, I love Sassy. I think this is the first AU I've read for them and it was amazing!

This was an absolutely wonderful look at 'Cas comes back'. The author doesn't gloss over anything which just made me love it more.
