questions and feelings

[whynot]

I'm this month's "Ask the Author" on spnroundtable! So if you guys got any questions about why I think Castiel is a deer with trees for antlers or something, drop on by.

In other exciting news, I can haz a be_themoon, at least until Monday. :DDDDDDDDDDDD

In less exciting news, I feel like I'm the only person not watching Teen Wolf these days, but this is a lie, because I have watched some Teen Wolf and can somehow discuss it at length even though I've only watched 1.5 episodes because THAT'S WHAT FANNISH OSMOSIS DOES TO YOU. THIS IS A GIFT!!

SDCC, man. Why do Jensen and Misha try so hard to make me ship Jensen/Misha? why do they do that. (why is it working)

I ACTUALLY ALSO HAVE SOME BEN EDLUND/MISHA COLLINS ~FEELINGS which at first began as like "lololol what if Misha was Ben's muse" but then Comic Con happened and then all the ~*~*CANON*~*~ where Cas is Ben's favorite character to write, and Misha can watch Ben work for hours, and Ben thinks Misha brings new life to the show, and they both think the other charming psychopaths, and they obviously adore each other omg, and then their ~creative process~ when filming 7x21 and and aaaaand now I want this RPF. Of like. Ben and Misha trolling the goddamn world and sometimes they eat Fruit Roll-Ups. supernaturallyflaccid@tumblr prompted me to write this, but I can't say I wasn't asking for it:

It’s 4 AM when he calls and maybe in theory you should be angry because who the hell calls at 4 am, but the answer is: Misha, because he knows you’re awake. You always are, days like these. Deadlines like these, more like.

The first thing he says is, “Jicama was the missing ingredient,” and it takes you a few seconds to remember that the last thing you guys talked about was the hypothetical perfect salad. So, he’s established yellow pepper, jicama, onion, spinach, and you are skeptical of this flavor combination. You think he’s probably just stoned.

You say, “The dressing should probably be some kind of sweet vinaigrette,” anyway.

You’ve got half of episode 8.04 on your laptop, and the other half is all over your desk on the back of receipts and reservations and rejected proposals. This is what you tell him when he asks what you’re up to, and then he asks, “Am I in it?”

“I don’t know yet.”

“Put me in, coach.”

“Doing what?”

None of the suggestions he gives are serious, and you hear the tock-tock of knife on a cutting board in the background as he speaks. You start doodling the beginnings of 8.05 below a scene snippet on a CVS receipt. ‘Killer mermaids?’ you scribble, and underline it twice.

“Hmm,” Misha says. “Some cheese?”

“What kind?”

“I only have gouda and goat.”

“No cheese.”

“‘Kay. I’ll let you know how this goes.”

“Godspeed.”

You hang up. Under ‘killer mermaids?’ you write ‘feral goatmen?’ and stare at it for a few seconds before going back to 8.04. Dean’s tears aren’t going to cry themselves.
