SPN Recs -- Round One: Epic-Length J2! \0/

[solarcat]

As I have stated previously, I have a serious kink for epic-length, non-AU J2 fics, and especially first-time fic, so that's the focus of this recs set. I've got some shorter, fluffy/domestic fics to rec, too, but I've got waaaaaay too many fics to rec, so I'm splitting them into a couple of posts. XD

Recs are in no particular order!



Title: Yes Sir (I Don't Mean Maybe)
Author: hkath
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: R
Warnings: Vin Diesel? XD
Why the Rec?: Jared and Jensen. In parenting class. With a robot baby. Also, there is Vin Diesel. This is cracky and schmoopy and LOVE, and is also just shy of 30,000 words. And it comes with art and a soundtrack. <3 Though, actually, a lot of these recs are Big Bang fics, so many of them have art and/or soundtracks and other goodies!

Title: In Production
Author: reccea
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Not really.
Why the Rec?: 40k words of post-series future fic. They'll always have Paris. I CAN'T EVEN EXPLAIN. Just read it.

Title: After The Tone
Author: kashmir1
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: some Jensen/OMC
Why the Rec?: Moar post-SPN future fic. Beautifully executed, and some very well done OCs. And it has a TRAILER! <3 Well, well worth the time to read it. The only problem with this fic is that it's so damn short! 24,500 WORDS IS NOT ENOUGH OF THIS FIC! /0/ *flails*

Title: There Moves a Thread That Has No End
Author: keepaofthecheez
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: some Jensen/OMCs and Jensen/OFCs
Why the Rec?: So, this isn't precisely non-AU. It pretty much is, but there's an element of the supernatural (hahah, yes, I know) involved here. Still, EXCELLENT. You've seen Groundhog Day, right? This is just like that. Except better. <3

Title: A Breath Away From Where We Are
(and the companion/sequel, Breathing in the Space You've Come to Inhabit)
Author: annkiri
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Jared/Sandy, Jensen/Danneel, Jensen/Tania content; life-eating fic. XD
Why the Rec?: This is FANTASTIC. Very, very them, as well as being long and plotty and full of UST (until it's not so much U, anymore... XD ). \0/ First fic is Jared-centric, and the companion/sequel is Jensen-centric.

Title: True Hollywood Story
Author: pocketfullof
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: R
Warnings: Jared/OFC content. Is "schmoopy domesticity" a warning or an enticement? XD
Why the Rec?: See that bit about "schmoopy domesticity"? That. And also that this is another post-show futurefic, life is mean to Jared, and then it isn't anymore. Because, y'know, Jensen. Just read it. <3

Title: A Very Gay Christmas
Author: celtic_cookie
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: SCHMOOP. <3
Why the Rec?: ^ Schmoop. Better than schmoop, in fact. DOMESTIC, CHRISTMAS SCHMOOP. \0/ It's a bit shorter than the other recs on this list, at only 9,759 words, but it makes up for length with its sheer adorableness. <3

Title: Incriminating Evidence
Author: timewillbe
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: not really
Why the Rec?: Roommates fic (because they live together!!! no, that will never get old), in which Jensen moves in, and some things are discovered. 34k, and you will want to finish it once you start, so plan your time accordingly!

Title: Ouzo
Author: lazy_daze
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: not really
Why the Rec?: Jared and Jensen. In Greece. With accompanying (gorgeous!) photos of the places in question. This is one of those fics where you can feel the atmosphere. If you don't immediately want to run off to Greece after reading this fic, I really don't know you. XD

Title: Not on the Map
Author: elless18
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: not really
Why the Rec?: Jared. Jensen. Road trip. Hawt Mansex. <3
http://elless18.livejournal.com/10743.html


Title: The Truth About Heaven
Author: destina
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Jensen/JDM, Jensen/OMC, Jared/Sandy content.
Why the Rec?: More SPN-is-ended fic, in which Jensen deals with his gayness, and happy endings are achieved, as of course they should be. ^^

And, to round it out, one vid rec! (Since I promised everyone today that I'd link them to the vid. XDDD )

Title: I Fell in Love
Vidder: proofpudding
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Music: "Here in Your Arms" by hellogoodbye
Warnings: Beware this vid. It will pimp you into J2, all by itself. <333!
Why the Rec?: It's a vid of Jared and Jensen, being Jared and Jensen. In other words, this is the epic tale of two boys in love. Bouncy, happy, catchy, endlessly re-watchable. And the perfect pimping vid for those J2 doubters on your f-list. XD

OMG I LOVE YOU. I've been marathoning SPN and reading fic for like three weeks and I haven't even read any of these yet. Seriously. I am so stoked. And that vid is like my new favorite thing. Ever. Possibly I'm going to adopt it and dress it in cute jumpers and so forth. This also draws my notice rather sharply to the fact that I HAVE NO SPN ICONS. This clearly must be remedied. <3 <3 <3

[solar-cat.livejournal.com]

\0/ *is loved* I hope you enjoy them!! And yes. Very much yes. Best. vid. ever. It's just so HAPPY!! *flails* I love them so much. I don't even have the words to describe how happy the J2 makes me. <333

[marn-barn.livejournal.com]

Okay, that vid has to be one of the CUTEST things I've ever seen. I've never really shipped these guys because I'm actually pretty new to the fandom, but they're almost a rival for Bradley/Colin in my RPF OTP ships list XD

I will definitely be reading and commenting on all these fics- thanks for pulling together such an awesome rec list! :D

[solar-cat.livejournal.com]

Isn't it just??? And it's definitely a pimping vid, no question about it. There, in that vid, is why they have an RPS fandom. <3333 I CAN'T DECIDE WHO'S MORE ADORABLE! ...Clearly, Bradley and Colin need to hump each other in public more AT ALL. THEN we will have serious competition on our hands! XDDD

I hope you enjoy the fics!! =D

[marn-barn.livejournal.com]

It almost reminded me of wistful_fever's adorable Bradley/Colin vid, only with a lot more touching and more Jared (what can I say, tall guys are just awesome).

Oh, and I read "Ouzo" last night. Seriously, I am so going to Corfu someday. Those linked pics were just like tourist porn for me XD

[solar-cat.livejournal.com]

God, I love that vid SO MUCH. *huggles it tight* =333 They're so CUTE!! And Colin in his HOODIE with his little SMILE at Bradley...!!! *makes high-pitched dolphin noises* (And yes, Jared's tallness is AMAZING. I like, want a hug from him. Just so I can feel tiny. XDDD )

Inorite?? Greece was never even on my "Places I Must Visit" list until I read that fic, and now I'm all like, sooooo... How much vacation time do I get, again? XDDD

[merelyn.livejournal.com]

Despite not being in SPN fandom and (ostensibly ha ha) not being much into RPS either, I do enjoy the occasional j2 fic. Will definitely save these for later, yay!

[solar-cat.livejournal.com]

...Clearly, this is an invitation for me to post more delicious recs, with which to tempt you to the Dark Side. XDDDD

I hope you enjoy! =D

[merelyn.livejournal.com]

Ha, feel free! My line with RPS erodes more everyday. (Though I think the reason I can read j2 without being too bothered is precisely *because* I'm not in SPN so it's less squicky to me?)
