Happilyfeatherafter’s ficrec Fridays

It's February!! Welcome back to another week of ficrecs. A mix of post-confession therapy, poetry, and glorious AU this week. (I thought I'd not read much because this week has been, quite frankly, a bastard, but apparently this was a lie!)

If you missed last week’s you can find my previous rec lists here for more!

2 February 2024

maybe i like pleasure pain by tothewillofthepeople (@kvothes). After the perfect darkness of the Empty, Cas finds the world a little…overwhelming. Dean tries to help. Post 15x18, Cas is both touch starved and touch sensitive, and the sensory overload of the world can be a bit too much. He craves Dean's touch, but resists asking for it. A really beautifully written, metaphor laden examination of chronic pain, disability, trauma and the physicality of the body and nebulous presence of mind. All wrapped up in an abundance of love and devotion. Absolutely gorgeous.

Prayer to a False God by K_A_Mindin (@katerinaalianovamindin, art by @gaytedlasso for @spnbangbang) It’s been two years stuck in the Empty, where the Shadow showed him his worst mistakes over and over again. Then he's brought back, to Jack and to Dean, and silence continues to rein, the unspoken acknowledgement of the confession lingering in the air...until Cas decides he needs to stop letting silence rule. Alongside the emotional pull of this thread, the D/S dynamics which grant Dean the permission to speak his truths, through prayer, and through physical release, are a joy to behold.

i like your shoelaces (thanks! i stole them from the president) by @you-cant-spell-subtext-without is a brilliantly funny take on Misha's "Dean is a custodian in a fast food restaurant. Castiel is the President of the United States" fic prompt from a convention, told through the narrative hook of a Cinderella story. Delightfully tongue in cheek, and laugh out loud, this is currently a wip but a must read to bring joy to your inbox each update.

FROTUS by kathscradle takes the very same prompt but approaches it in a very well executed slowburn that says ok but seriously what if? My favourite thing about this fic is the importance of family, Cas being the widowed single parent of Jack and Claire, and Dean stepping up in his new role as step-Dad. Add in the slowburn relationship unfolding through long distance hyper-monitored correspondence, and all the national security matters at hand, this longfic gave my The West Wing/Scandal/Destiel brain a great big hug.

birthday candles by rhinestoneangels (almondrose/@pinknatural) is a super cute, ever so charming Dean's birthday ficlet in which Castiel's sister Anna drags him to a birthday party for a friend of hers who he has never met. He googles what to bring to a birthday party and settles on baking cookies...one fire later and fortunately, the firefighter who shows up to save Castiel from himself is very dreamy, and what a coincidence! It's his birthday, too….

I've also fallen down a rabbit warren of destiel and spn poetry, and I really really love this one by @whatladybird and this one by @eyelinerdean, @donestiel's incredible poetry gif edit series and I'm very excited to keep reading more on the @spnpoetryrenaissance blog. Has anyone seen a 2024 prompt list? Asking for reasons.

PS if you'd like to be added to a tag list for my ficrecs going forward please let me know!

OH and also samantha smith called my friend delusional for shipping deancas on twitter a few years ago. idk if that's a reason to HATE her but she did express her opinion that way lol

Ah I see...I don't like that!! Thanks for sharing that because it's good to know those kind of things!

Her milf status is cancelled 🙅‍♀️

I just really dislike when actors talk down to fans even if they don't share the same opinions because there's a real imbalance of power there - plus it's just rude!

#like I'd never call someone delusional to their face for shipping an innocent ship #some ships? (you know the ones) yes maybe if confronted #but otherwise that's just very rude and unprofessional!!#alison answers #whatladybird

are you going to write anything based on the the concept you posted earlier re: "don't fuck the angel?" I'd love to expand on it and write something but only with your permission. I'd credit you of course as well. no worries either way! :)

not planning anything, expand all you want!

Tag Game: Reveal the significance/meaning of your username

I was tagged by @girldadbuddie and @burnthatbridge 😊

I signed up for Tumblr way back when it was new and was using my real name for a few months til I picked the username wewantashrubbery. I loved that username and had it for years until I accidentally sent a link to my mom's Skype with my url and I had to remove myself off the internet forever 😅🙃 she didn't seem to notice it but I'm too terrified to ever go back lmao

So, the on the spot name I came up with was from Doctor Who since I had that on the tv when this happened! It does get confused with "that's very good" by people sometimes when they don't get the reference to the Ood species lol but I am a creature of habit and have kept the name since. Maybe someday I'll go back to wewantashrubbery but today is not that day 😂

Tagging @wecanbepirates @whatladybird and @heathyr if you want to do it!
