It should be criminal to write words that ring so true and break my heart in 1000 pieces 💔

In his life, Dean knows what it is to pretend. He knows what it looks like. The dutiful son, the staunch protector, the class clown—he knows the burden of the performance and what it feels like to forget who you are when the curtains are closed. It took him five thousand miles and a war to figure out. Novak, it seems, has a little further to go.

Never want to read another gay historical romance set in a world war because Ninety One Whiskey left me in absolute shambles and I don't know whether I'm afraid the experience won't ever be replicated or that it will.

#every so often you come across an author that make you go 'this is FANFICTION?? this is fucking DESTIEL FANFICTION?? #what the FUCK do you mean you're TWENTY THREE????' and then you have to put your head between your knees and never recover #anyway it's 400k words and I have been emotionally unsound for the last four years #still don't know how to handle her So Says The Sword #'there's a masterpiece of english literature on ao3 but you might need to watch one of the worst tv shows ever created to understand it' #EDIT: SHE CAME BACK LAST MONTH AFTER 6 YEARS TO WRITE ANOTHER N-OW ONE SHOT FOR RALLY FOR PALESTINE!! #gay romance #gay historical romance #book recommendations #book recs #fic recs #fanfiction #knee of huss #komodobits

Ninety One Whiskey

Title: Ninety One Whiskey

Author: komodokits

Rating: E

Word Count: 401,183

Summary: In the spring of 1944, the 104th Medical Battalion of the United States Army is disbanded, and its men reassigned to various infantry companies in preparation for their invasion of occupied France. For First Lieutenant Novak, this is less than helpful, as he has so far met his platoon’s designated medic a grand total of twice, and has both times found Sergeant Winchester to be the optimum combination of reckless, arrogant, and downright insufferable so as to make cohesive platoon function near impossible. When the time comes to move out, however, Castiel has to reconcile himself to the fact that men are going to go down and trust that Dean Winchester may well be the only person who can put them back together again. WW2 ETO infantry AU.

Commentary: You know that fanfic you read that for a while felt more real than canon? This happened to me and 91W. I started reading this not knowing it was a fandom classic – I read So Says The Sword, by the same author, fell in love with their writing and wanted more. I don’t usually read AUs, because often the characters are too out of character, but I gave this one a shot. Had to skip some scenes in the beginning to make sure I wanted to read it (to get to Dean and Cas’ scenes), but had to go back to read it after, because this story is AMAZING.

I don’t understand or care much about war, but the author is so good at storytelling that they made me want to go watch war movies.

The fanfic follows Castiel’s POV through WWII – he is a lieutenant and goes to Europe in 1944. Castiel is aware he is queer but hates it about himself – as would be expected of a man in that time. He meets Dean, a medic, who is funny, charming, impulsive, brave and begins showing interest in Cas, which is very dangerous in their context.

The author says in the tags it’s “not a nice story” – and maybe it’s not. As we follow Castiel in the war, he describes many details of what he sees and feels, many times causing the reader feelings and anxiety, fear, sadness and helplessness. He is a queer man in the 40’s, in the war, being a leader. That happens because the author is so so so so good, the way they write is so immersive. You can tell the author did their research about everything they talk about here.

Dean and Castiel’s relationship start as something not physical nor friendly, but…There’s something physical, of course, about what attracts them, that is described beautifully. Watching each other, their relationship also becomes admiration and interest. Cas has a very hard time with it, being scared most of the time. Slowly we see him fall in love with Dean, and Dean fall back.

The characters are incredibly in character, despite of the context. Castiel is very similar to season 5 Cas – lost, confused, angry, lonely. Dean is very similar to pre-hell Dean (and Dean in general) – understanding, laidback, focused, brave, compassionate, nurturing,

Unless you’re a very sensitive person who can’t read about violence, self-hate, death and other war related themes, please please read this story. It’s so good.

91W has two sequels (that are much shorter), called 4-F and At Ease.

to everyone who read A Complete Kingdom by komodobits and says that it is the most fucked up fic they've ever read with the most fucked up ending, they clearly haven't read Every Part of The Animal. like good god that fic gave me a panic attack holy shit im never gonna get over it. fuck.

#komodobits #a complete kingdom #every part of the animal #destiel #supernatural

[bloodydeanwinchester]

#fanfic #komodobits #and i LOVED ack by the way #i just REALLY love fucked up shit like a lot

[simplenefelibata]

been thinking a lot about dean seeing cas' true form lately. might write a fic where he falls to his knees crying shaking and throwing up after being in the presence of the divine. will update later.

#i blame #so says the sword #because i haven't read something similar to that reaction #like come on dean is seeing an ANGEL #why do people write him so Chill about it like it's just something cool #no it's not COOL it's life-changing. it's unique. it's something he could get to see once and just once !!! #destiel #destiel fic #supernatural #castiel #dean winchester #spn #casdean #komodobits

I can't EVER be normal about these boys. Somebody hold that man tight and never let go.

He’s not like Sammy. He’s not smart enough, not ambitious enough, not anything enough—for anything else. Being the idiot is easy. Fun, even. It’s one sure way to get noticed. Spend long enough lonely, and a backhand isn’t too different from a palm cradling your face. At least someone is reaching out for him.
