Title: Exhibition: The Coffee Verse
Author: raeschae
Character(s)/Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Prompt(s): Table 04: Lover's Rock at spn_30snapshots
Word Count: 29,500
Rating: NC-17

Summary: The art gallery across the street from the coffee shop where Jared lives and works is not nearly as interesting as the sculptor who works in the studio above it.

Notes: This story was originally posted as a WIP at my journal, but I wanted to make it a little easier to read now that it's finished. It has been consolidated into a three-part story, and I've also included a .pdf for download, if that's more your thing.

Thanks to: maichan808 for the beta (and a better title).


Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
PDF Download

Obviously, anyone who was reading the Coffee Verse already knows that I completed my spn_30snapshots table, but I just got the nifty banner to make it official, so I'm sharing! Also, the beta on that should be done shortly, and then I will make the PDF available. It's coming, I promise.

I also wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who commented on my thread at the 'That's My Favorite' meme. I really didn't know what to expect, and you guys blew me away. Thank you so much for your kind words - they made my day.

On a somewhat related note, those of you who said Creative Control was your go-to fic, you inspired me. I am currently working on a fic with those guys to fill one of the prompts on my schmoop_bingo table. It's turning out a lot pornier than I intended, so I hope that's okay.

Alright, that's it for now - back to the writing. If I can stay inspired, I should have it ready to go today or tomorrow.

Summary: The more things change, the more it seems they stay the same.

Warnings/Author Notes: So this is it, the final chapter. I can't believe I cranked out damn near 30K words in less than a month. I don't wanna get all mushy or whatever, but I want to say thanks to everyone who kept me motivated to keep writing this story. It has been so much fun to play in this world, and you'll probably see some timestamps somewhere down the road. I'm not sure I'm ready to let these guys go just yet.

ETA: The consolidated version of this story is currently being beta'd. When that's finished, it will be available for download as a .pdf.
