everything's coming up fic-for-las

IT HAS BEEN A HELL OF WEEK. My favorite part was wandering around some caves in Tennessee and Virginia. Hey, remember the time Dean and some creature were hunting each other in the maze of caverns under Lookout Mountain? Or the time Castiel stood on the edge of the Lost Sea (a.k.a. America's largest underground lake) and thought he felt the amulet warm? CAAAAAVES <333, now probably my second favorite, after deserts. Jungles and oceans still have to duke it out for third.

Last week was also my birthday, and omg you guys. Life blessed me with [personal profile] be_themoon writing me us with our pilgrim hearts which is about TEAM FREE WILL: THE NEXT GENERATION. Claire, Ben, and Jesse saving people, hunting things!! I already OT3 them kinda hard, ngl. And then! More blessings in the form of [livejournal.com profile] roque_clasique writing Restore, which is about CLAIRE AND CAS <3. CLAIREFEST FOR MY BIRTHDAY yaaaaayyyyyy \o/ so read these wonderful fics, is what I'm saying.

Read also the following wonderful fic! Remix Redux 8 went live today, and some brilliant anonymoose took my words!Castiel fic, unnamed, and shook it until plot improbably fell out: Drink Up, Dreamers (The Jaded Underworld Remix). Its tags are 'case fic', 'mythology', and 'meta'. ARE YOU TURNED ON YET?

Speaking of joy, why not hop over to the SPN angel commentfic meme?

And now for Important Questions Time.
[livejournal.com profile] 22by7 and I think Ben, Claire, and Jesse could be played by Ben, Claire, and Jesse.



...Mackenzie, Danes, and Bradford, that is. Yep. HOWEVER. I am also partial to:



Tobey Maguire as Jesse




Zach Gilford as Ben




Taylor Kitsch as... uh. Where was I?




Scarlett Johansson as Claire


OKAY YOUR TURN

(ALSO because I suck at memory sometimes OMG YAY YOU ARE BAAACK. <3333 I'm glad you had a good vacation, too - Tennessee and Virginia are GORGEOUS and I love them.)

I was considering Ian as Jesse! He def can do snark well, and yes he fills up the pretty minimum QUITE WELL. Jesse Bradford has been in crappy teen movies, like Bring It On, and he was also in... Jumpers? Tobey Maguire is Spiderman! And in Cider House Rules. I think the Wonder Boys? Snow Falling on Cedars.

<3333 Tennessee and Virginia hold so much natural beauty, wow. I was also thinking "hey why does Rock City sound familiar OMG IT IS FROM AMERICAN GODS". I was kind of awestruck as we drove down the highway, all the open space, the greenery. Pull up to the shoulder and roll over into the woods. A pasture, some horses, some sheep, some cows. I wonder what life is like for a kid who has horses and sheep and cows. Shops where they sell symbols of the confederate flag, billboards that sing the praises of waiting until marriage. Highways that become main streets and, before you know it, become highways again. CAVES. Hootenannies held in them during prohibition, how you can drink much more and not get drunk down there, but the higher the altitude, the drunker you'll feel, and some people couldn't even make it back up to the mouth of the cave, they were so drunk. A sea of stalagmites that isn't, because it's just a sea, currentless and still so that the stalactites are perfectly reflected. Rock formations called angel wings and dragon's foot, and one in particular named Pluto's Ghost. Waterfalls. Civil war soldiers writing their names on rock walls, those goshdarn kids. TJ Hardy, 1863. Caves caves caves! I am enthralled.
