Somebody had to write

by who_la_hoop

This is a stupid fanfiction and I shouldn't have written it. I have no shame. Don't like, don't read. Abandon hope all ye who enter here . . . (A little piece of silliness, wherein the above summary, dubious poem below, author notes and accompanying tags are entirely composed of existing AO3 freeform tags.)

I started watching Supernatural season one last week and I'm up to ep1x09 Home. I was wondering if anyone could tell me which communities are the best to join for good fanfiction about Dean and Sam. I haven't been in online fan communities before and am not sure where to start. (read comments) (post a comment) Or: in which Sam and Dean mod a comm, the final SPN season is airing, Castiel is the newbie, fandom is obsessive as ever, and betaing is totally a metaphor for love.

"Why wouldn't you travel by main roads?"

by Farla

Witchers feel emotions, Renfri wasn't a monster, Roach is notably chill, Geralt prefers nonhuman company and lies a lot, Jaskier is generally good at people but is happy to ignore what they say because he thinks he knows best, Yennefer's life is abuse piled atop abuse with a sprinkle of ethnic cleansing and a complete lack of choice, Istredd's life likely wasn't much better, Tissaia does not know what she's doing, Triss is lying about being assigned to cure the princess but is afraid to admit a personal investment, Jaskier is surprisingly tolerant of Geralt getting him on Calanthe's shitlist, Kalis was in a bad situation, and didn't rise above it, it really shouldn't surprise people Yennefer gets weird about having a kid, rogue mages are afraid of the Brotherhood but it seems to be a paper tiger.Ch21:Jaskier took being dumped by the countess really hard, and it's left him worried about if Geralt doesn't care about him either. Despite being drunk and having his own problems, he's concerned for Geralt and wants to help him.
