Talking about why this scene was rewritten/cut. Says he would get notes saying they know what the subtext is, bury it, use language less to the core but he wants to go straight to the core. Says its still clear Castiel is totally ride or die by Dean. He has to show it not tell it.
You were not crazy, folks, and I need to lie down.
Jesus Christ that dude was menacing. Standing just shy of the rain pouring down from the overhang. Like he didn't even feel it.
Yeah alright I was looking at him way too long now, shit-
"Where do you think you're going?" that voice, tinged with a dangerous edge, sent shivers down my spine.
Heart pounding, my nervous ass was trying to sidestep, but that man's presence was pulling me in, commanding attention and fear in equal measure.
"Home. Just trying not to fucking drown in the rain, man"
That asshole's eyes never even blinked and locked onto me like I was the one trying some shit.
"Have I seen you before?"
"Absolutely not."
Why couldn't I shut up and just walk away-
"Stop lying."
"I'm not?"
....have I seen him before?
How the fuck was his hand on my shoulder without me noticing-
"Let's wait until this fuckass weather chills down and then we can go home? Do you smoke?"
I didn't. I took a drag and almost died coughing. He just laughed. That's when I noticed the blood stains underneath his collar.
the way he literally had to make that has me SCREAMING he sat at his computer all day editing a fake article to post a silly april fools prank to shade j*pad he is literally SO FUNNY for this
This poll is for Destiel shippers and sympathizers. No hate towards Destiel or Cockles.
*By "Cockles" I don't necessarily mean the ship. The question is more "Which came first: the chemistry between the characters or the chemistry between the actors?"
A (5 star) review of Bury Your Gays, by @drchucktingle!
I read this book in one sitting. I did not plan to read this book in one sitting, but I could not put it down, accepting that my lunch break was now an extended reading break. Bury Your Gays was just that good.
It starts simple. Screenwriter Misha has been told by his exec that the season finale of his show must out, then kill the two leads. He needs to bury his gays because the board has determined it's where the money is. Misha says no. Then starts getting stalked by his (definitely fictional, right?) characters from other shows. Either Misha developed some incredible supernatural powers in that meeting, or something more sinister is at work…
Bury Your Gays illustrates why queer people should be allowed to tell the stories they want to tell, instead of being made to use queerbating, tragic tropes, or fake relentless optimism in the name of corporate Pride. It's a story about the queer struggle to find oneself in a world that makes it so, so hard. There's a lot of love for the queer community poured into this book, and oh does it shines. I especially adored the ace rep - and the concept of ace rep as a plot point. I shall not explain further. However, I am more scared than ever of the corporatization of Pride.
Bury Your Gays also criticizes capitalism's monetization of tragedy and exploitation of workers. It explores what happens when ethics are ignored in the name of an ever-growing profit margin, to the point where the bottom line becomes a near-sentient thing. It leans into the horrors of AI and data-mining by combining the two and going all the way with it. Chuck Tingle has acknowledged all my fears of black box algorithms and also made them ten times worse. Truly a feat! I will be sleeping with my router off!
It's a masterpiece of horror, both visceral and psychological. Since the main character is a horror writer, the story is very genre aware. There's a lot of fun to be had in the tale of "writer being followed by the monsters he wrote," and certainly no small amount of terror. It gets gory here and there, with plenty of suspense in between. Hints are laid out for the reader, enough where I was occasionally able to predict what was coming just a page or two before it landed. My jaw dropped multiple times! The writing is descriptive enough to pull you right in (and gross you out!), and it's paced near-perfectly. There's all these little moments sprinkled in that elevate the whole story, from fun references of other work to subtle clues you'll only catch on a reread.
This book will be living in my head rent-free from now on. It's about so many things and yet has interwoven them all perfectly. Fans of classic horror movies will love this story. Those of us fed up with AI generated trash will love it. Anyone who joined a WGA picket line will love it. Asexuals fed up with lack of representation will love it. People who watched multiple seasons of Supernatural will love it. Is that you? Go pick up Bury Your Gays. Be scared, be sad, be angry. But also validated, loved, and joyful.
paucafideliter and I finally got the jpeg of our Cockles op! You can reuse this in other places but PLEASE ASK FIRST. We’re not scary, I promise. It’s just really weird to see your op show up in unexpected places.
