ARGH! WORK! WHY MUST YOU SCREW WITH MY ABILITY TO READ A LOT OF FIC? Another short list, but I have so much fic bookmarked for this weekend (when I don't want to work on my Big Bang anymore, that is).

The disclaimer for these recs still applies. I base these on nothing more than my own personal taste and enjoyment. Some you might agree with and some you may not, but that's the point of personal taste - everyone's is different! Because if you can't rec what you like, what's the fun?

WORDS.

secretlytodream | I wrote this novel just for you
Jensen/Jared. Funny, they could be a perfect couple if one of them wasn’t a psycho serial killer and the other his biggest fan. 19,000 words. NC17.
This is far and away one of the best stories I've read in the last few months. Very different from what I usually seek out, as it's very much a horror/murder story, but it was fantastic. It was dark and horrifying and at the same time, written so gorgeously it made my stomach hurt a little bit, and I couldn't stop reading. Like every line was essential and perfect. And the ending, eeeeek! Definitely give this one a chance.

gatorgrrrl | Down the Rabbit Hole
Jensen/Jared. Jensen and Jared are competitive alpine skiers. And while Jared's at the top of the sport, Jensen's simply looking for one last big race. 4,400 words. PG13.
My favorite story to come out of the Olympic fic craze :) Understated, emotional, and lovely!

agt_spooky | Shadows In His Eyes
Jensen/Jared. For K-9 Officer Jared Padalecki, transferring from the San Antonio police department to the elite L.A.P.D. was a dream come true. He nearly forgets he’s in Hollywood until he responds to a 911 call that brings him to the home of actor Jensen Ackles. It appeared that Jensen had it all – a career that was on fire and a loving, long-term relationship with his partner, Mark. But then Jared uncovers the truth that Jensen had been trying to hide, and the illusion comes crashing down. 45,000 words. NC17.
Really? A story where one's in law enforcement, and the other's an actor? Sign me up!

redsbball61 | Life With You
Jensen/Jared. It's not perfect, but it's theirs. 1,600 words. PG.
This little scene from an AU will really pull at your heartstrings in the best way. So much love!

And now, POSTING FRIDAY FIC! As soon as I finish editing :)

Two Become One That's not our song.
Jared/Jensen. High School AU.
R. 2900 words.
In which Jensen wears eyeliner, and Jared may be the Spice Girls' #1 Fan.
Yes, this is the goth!Jensen, Pop Princess!Jared fic. Further proof that one should never stay up late on Twitter with aldehyde, dugindeep, twofourteen, earthquakedream, and chez_amanda. Thanks to dugindeep for the beta!


( They sat at the same table in Mrs. McCarthy's advanced art class. Jensen figured he was going to go blind from Jared's pink polo shirt, but his jeans were tight across his hips and, well, that hadn't been so bad to look at. )
