Comment Fic

[raeschae]

So, I woke up at 5:30 this morning with an upset stomach and starting watching The World Series of Poker on ESPN, as you do, until it was time to get ready for work. It was there that I heard this quote (I have no idea who to credit for this as I know nothing about the pro Poker circuit. I know he was wearing a hat. And sunglasses.): "Lady Luck hangs out with the guys who practice hard." So, uh, let that inspire you? I don't know, I just liked it. I was also sick, so take it for what it's worth, I guess.

A giant THANK YOU to kiwiana for the Katie/Genevieve fic she wrote me in the spn_fs_exchange, Those Nights Belong to Us. If femslash is your thing, check it out!

So, I decided to pinch hit for the spn_fs_exchange and am currently putting the finishing touches on that fic, then I'm clear until j2_afterclass in January. Well, I have a hs_bingo card to play with but it's not due until May so I'm, ya know, procrastinating.

I ♥ you guys, but I suck at holiday cards and gifts. What I can do is comment fic. Here are the stipulations:

1.) Fic will be roughly 1000 words.
2.) No pairing is off-limits.
3.) You can request more than one prompt but I can only promise one fill per person, so make sure the fic you most want to see is prompted first.
4.) Prompts can be holiday-themed but they don't have to be, unless they come from the Disclaimer 'verse.

ETA: All prompts have been filled!

They got together before Christmas last year but this is the first time they’re going to be sharing a space, decorating and establishing routines and traditions of their own. They won’t acknowledge that, of course, but Jared thinks it’s pretty cool.

He spent years looking forward to Christmas because it meant somebody would notice him, love him, want him around. It’s different this year, having someone in his life who’s done all of those things all year long. It’s a better reason to celebrate.

They argue over which tree they want, what colors they want the ornaments to be, how much they’re going to spend on this thing in total. Jared says they should keep it simple; Jensen, as always, wants to fly over the top, to make their little living room look like Rockefeller Center or something.

They end up spending what is, in Jared’s opinion, too much but it’s kind of exciting and Jensen is happy so he figures there’s no harm.

Once they’re back in the car again, Jared takes a deep breath and lets himself appreciate the fact that he has a home this Christmas, a house and a family of his own. It’s more emotional to consider than he thought it would be.

“We should have a party,” he hears himself say. He can’t blame Jensen for looking at him like he’s lost his mind. They’ll go to a party anywhere, at any time, but they don’t throw them. Ever. “Nothin’ crazy. Just, I don’t know. Maybe on Christmas, we can throw down an open invite to whoever wants to show? Order some food, let our friends know they can stop by whenever, if they need to.”

For a long time, Jensen just keeps staring at him. Jared’s pretty sure he’s going to say that it’s the dumbest idea he’s ever heard.

Instead, Jensen smiles and nods. “Yeah, I think that sounds good.”

after reading about the christmas tradition in so many fics, it's really great to know how it all started. i like knowing the back story.

Thank you Rae, this was so perfect!

As you know, Disclaimer!Christmas is one of my happy fics so I absolutely love having the backstory of how it all started.

I love getting inside Jared's head a little and that he ends up giving into Jensen and his more extravagant decorating ideas. Now I'm totally convinced that they have the coolest lights and decorations in their whole block and Jared secretly loves the whole thing.

I'm so glad you liked it!

I've always imagined that the guys pay someone to decorate their house at Christmas, now that they have the money to do it, but I kind of like the idea that they still have a tree in their bedroom that they decorate together. ;)
