Excerpt from runawaydr3amer’s notes on Sandman:“This whole thing is kinky and explicit AF. It's got a good whack of angst, especially at the start, but if you take a chance on me, I promise it's also schmoopy as all get-out. Despite the somewhat alarming tags, please note that I only write happy endings. If you don't like men showing emotions in response to trauma, this is not the right place for you.” This doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of the Wincest epic that is the

Podfic Time – “Tell Me What’s Wrong” by ArthursKnightThanks to Arthur (ArthursKnight) for suggesting this rare pair fic — Ketch/Dean — of his to narrate. It’s a short little Omegaverse story with Omega!Dean and Alpha!Ketch. I ask that anyone who listens suspends their disbelief when you hear me as Ketch. I tried to go for more of the character tone than imitation (I am not the best at accents). My narration is merely an inspirational interpretation. Please visit the fic (and all of Arthur’s work)

Seriously, this talented artist has some awesome convention mojo regarding J2 interactions. Call it “The Jessica Effect.” They talked about CharlotteCon, HawaiiCon, the Pride art Jessica created for the podcast, and all the Jessica/Jared moments that stirred up some thoughts from Kasey.
