fangasmicI don't know what you kids do on long weekends, but being kind of a jerk I like to spend one day with people and two days separated from human kind. You know, play video games, bake something, read masses of terrible, mind-altering fanfiction.
What's that? You try not to read things that might make you clinically depressed and very confused? We must have different ideas of what "holiday" means. Here, have a taste of my long weekend readings:
It's not so much that this sounds terrible as that the apparent plausibility is terrible. I mean, don't the chances of fiction becoming reality at this point kind of skyrocket? That scares me. It scares me in my soul.
Shawn Actually Becomes / Already Is Psychic is a common thing in Psych fandom, and I keep reading it even though it has yet to actually be good. But I can see it happening, you know? A kind of comeuppance for Shawn Spencer. It's fairly believable.
Do you know what isn't believable? Vulcan!Shawn. Also the fact that this anon thinks her prompt isn't specific as to plot or pairing. ARE YOU CRAZY, ANON? I THINK YOU ARE.
I'd like to think it's just Supernatural fandom, but it's not: guys, there's a difference between non-con, dub-con, and rough sex. You should probably know it. Also No Means No. In the meantime, somewhere Castiel is crying sad Angel of the Lord tears over this story and Fanspastic. I can't say which earns more tears after today's Easter Post.
Lesson: Don't read Preacher. Specifically, don't read it when you're nine.
Or, you know. Ever.
In conclusion, I now cannot tell if this is serious or not:
