Just needed to rant. It's ridiculous and I'm extremely bitchy today. Sorry...  


It's always interesting to track the kink memes. You get to know how many people out there have kinks as weird as your own and that's pretty awesome, if at times I wish I could unsee some of them. But it's always my own fault for looking, I get that.

But you also get to keep up with all the ~drama~. People are totally freaking out because someone reposted a prompt with the roles reversed and the OP thought it was "rude" as well as a few others. Here's what I find funny/aggravating:

The person switched the roles from bottom!Jensen to bottom!Jared. And the OP is angry because if they'd "wanted Jensen on top, I would have prompted it".

But I've seen prompts get reposted with the roles reversed all the time, and had nobody comment. You know what I've noticed about those prompts? They're bottom!Jared getting switched to bottom!Jensen. I've seen that happen multiple times, since I've been tracking these comms since I found out about them. And I've never seen them freak out over the bottom!Jared stuff getting switched to bottom!Jensen.

This obviously isn't actually the reason the OP is pissed and I know that. I'm just bitchy and moody and still miffed about someone commenting on a post with "it's not like bottom!Sam/Jared is a rarity" when only about 20% of this year's BB fics were bottom!Jared/Sam. So, yeah. In a ~mood~.

I'm really, really sorry for this stupid, ridiculous whining post. It didn't have much point beyond me wanting to just scream at all the stupid I've witnessed this past week.

UGH, I know! I hate seeing how Sam/Jared turns into an asshole if it's bottom!Jensen/Dean. I know it doesn't always turn out that way, but so many of them do. And I've read bottom!Jensen fics that I love (2 on my top 5 favorite RPS fics are bottom!Jensen), but it's because Jared is his sweet, lovable self. Goofy and puppy-like and gets his vulnerable moments and it's equal. There's no toppy/bastardness that I see so often in top!Jared fic.

I probably wouldn't have read her fic originally because of the length (I don't generally start reading fics that are longer than ~25k because I can't handle all the angst and suspense packed into longer fics a lot of the time. Another funny thing because most of my top 5 RPS fics are really long). But yeah, I actually got to beta it and experience the amazingness that was Lengths and I'm so glad because otherwise I would have missed out on one of the best pieces of fiction I've ever read.

Oh you betaed it?!...Actually I think I might have known that, now that I think about it, I remember your name at the top or somewhere. *facepalm* So we have you to thank for some of that awesomeness too then! *beams* I remember being amazed that there was no word out of place, everything, the flow of it, the details, even the stinkin punctuation was SPOT. ON! ;D And would your awesome bottom!Jensen fics happen to be on your memories list? Cuz I'd love to see Jared written as his sweet, lovable self while being the "dominate" of the two, I'm actually not sure I've read a fic like that! :O

Dude, you have no idea how happy that makes me to hear. There were three of us who read over the fic and it's such an amazing feeling to know that we didn't miss too much. :D There was certainly a lot of fic to look over (and how awesome that was). :D

Hmm, I don't actually use my memories thing because it confuses me. BUT, I believe I have the links in my bookmarks.
Honestly, you might have already read them. Or at least 'Sunset' because it's fairly popular. But it's too amazing not to read, in my opinion. The same with 'Vending Machines'. And I've listened to the podfic for 'Sunset' more times than I can count.
As This Sunset Turns to Morning

But We'll Always Have Our Vending Machines

Oh awesome, I actually..haven't read either one of those. *facepalm again* I've been living under a rock, sue me! *grins and smishes you*
wolfish_willow: Jared - smile[identity profile] wolfish-willow.livejournal.com on September 4th, 2011 08:23 am (UTC)
I really hope you enjoy them! I'm actually going to be rereading and/or re-listening to Sunset sometime this week, I'm sure. It's been on my mind for days. :D

And Vending Machines is just. *-* It makes me feel happy inside. :D

And, OMG. I saw your response at the kink meme and can I just.. just...

*HUGS AND TWIRLS*

That was awesome to see pop up in my inbox, let me tell you. LOLOLOL I love that you've got the guts to do that, and that you did it un-anon. I couldn't even be that awesome if I was hiding behind anonymity.

WELL...I mean, I went over to see what you were talking about, and..it pissed me off too! And it looked like it was several Dean!girls vs. a Sam!girl, and I just...couldn't have that. *shakes head* I'm probably gonna get hate mail now. *snickers* And they were being extremely rude to her, and then the one pops up saying that she apologized and to leave it at that, but THEY sure didn't apologize. Just didn't seem fair. XD

*_________________________________________*

You're so cool. Because it really did seem like a bunch of Dean!girls against the one Sam!girl and yeah. *-* Awesomeness.

Heh, the "Sam!girl" sent me a PM, and went on and on thanking me for sticking up for her, and that she meant nothing by it when she reposted the same prompt, she didn't mean to be rude, and that she was just waiting for the shit storm to leave, and all that. *hugs her* Poor girl.
wolfish_willow: Jared - smile[identity profile] wolfish-willow.livejournal.com on September 4th, 2011 11:16 pm (UTC)
Awwwww, that's so great. ^-^ I'm glad that she had someone awesome sticking up for her. I saw that the mod took everything away and then said to not copy people's prompts. *rolls eyes* But at least you got in there before it all got taken away like she wasn't harassed for wanting the prompt as bottom!Jared.
[identity profile] yvonnegos.livejournal.com on September 5th, 2011 03:51 am (UTC)
*snorts* You know, someone should go and write EXACTLY THAT prompt she wanted for that meme, and make it aaaalllll about bottom!Jared. *giggles* I don't know if the other girl ever got it filled or not.
wolfish_willow: Jared - smile[identity profile] wolfish-willow.livejournal.com on September 5th, 2011 04:14 am (UTC)
I KNOW. I wish I was comfortable with TPE and, well, anything really beyond vanilla Sam/Gabriel. She totally deserves to have her prompt filled after getting ganged up on and then basically having the mods agree with all the jerks. :(

The other one hasn't gotten filled, but it's gotten seconded, like, 4 or 5 times today. D:
[identity profile] yvonnegos.livejournal.com on September 5th, 2011 05:58 am (UTC)
Nooooooo! *grabs the last few bottom!Sam girls around and tucks em' away* We're being over run by bottom!Dean girls! *winces and hides under the covers*

:'( :'( :'(

It's totally not cool, at all. :/

*hides with you*
