This is my spn_j2_xmas story for ms_soma, who enjoys college AU, romance and schmoop of the not overly-sappy variety, humor, boys being boys, boys trading clothes, and coffee.

Low Rising [Jensen/Jared, PG-13]
Jared does laundry. Jensen overreacts. Danneel makes coffee. Harley has issues.

You're going to have to forgive my lack of English skills in this response. I'm blaming consecutive 35C+ days, no aircon in my apartment, and a severe lack of sleep resulting from said hot weather and lack of cooling!

I adore the cadence of this; slow and almost melancholic - it suits Jensen's mood perfectly. I actually identify with Jensen a lot in this; being happy with who you love but still wanting to escape somewhere and discover new things, unsure if that's what they're wanting to do. The symbolism of him picking up the lone mug, my laundry is a metaphor for my life being both amusing and a little poignant, Jared shrinking the piece of hope that he held onto... I can see it all! On top of that, you have Danneel being the awesome and amusing voice of reason, and Jared there at the end being just who Jensen needed.

Oh, and Jensen's I may have overreacted made me laugh, and the image of Jared linking index fingers with him makes my heart melt!

Thanks so much!! This was wonderful!

I'm so glad you enjoyed this! I was worried that I'd tried to cram so much in that it wouldn't hold together, so I'm relieved that you were able to identify with Jensen. I'm glad you didn't mind Danneel being so involved, and it's great to hear that you liked Jared linking fingers with Jensen like that. Thank you so much! <3

Clearly, this is not rational. I'm hopeful that perhaps it qualifies as quirky? *g*

This is is wonderful. I want a prequeal and a sequeal. LOL!

[apreludetoanend]

I'm so glad you liked it! And I know, it almost seems like it should be part of something larger, doesn't it? Thank you! =)

[apreludetoanend]

That's such a nice thing to say! Thank you! <3
