[ladyjanelly]

Fictional
Warnings: "Oh, Jensen--" read at your own risk
So much thanks to Jellicle for the hand-holding and the con-critting and corrections and all her hard work

I'll probably make some changes to this fic before I pimp it out or make it overtly-public. All y'all friends list people, feel free to hit me with any and all concrit you've got.

I think the only thing poor Jen really has to worry about is being hugged to death by Padaleckis! LOL

[ladyjanelly]

Heh. They are a little bit much for a complete introvert to deal with, aren't they?

[elucreh]

Yeah, okay, there is Oh, Jensen--but this chapter? Mostly oh, Jared.

*snuggles this fic hard*

[ladyjanelly]

Hee! Glad you enjoyed it.

The warning's there in case it goes places or I reveal things that hit people's squics or ouches. I dunno. I don't want anybody to say they thought it was pg-13 and then be upset at where it goes.

[elucreh]

I can see that--I'm paranoid about posting warnings myself, so I totally get it. *g*

(Also, am highly amused because my grandmother's name was Lenore.)

[ladyjanelly]

I'm like--not even exactly sure what warnings it should have yet.

So. I've got this cousin, in real life, named Garrett. And he's married to Lenora, and they just had a baby.:)

I can claim no originality on the names here.

I really like this darl, how the characters are set up and everything. I would definitely like to see where this story goes so i say continue lol.
:DD

I'm like 500 words into the next chapter. I finally figured where the 'ride home' is going, and how it'll move the plot forward.

Glad you're enjoying. Thanks for the comment.

Heh. They're so politically correct that it hurts. They are kinda stuck between wanting their child to be happy and knowing the path he's on is gonna be hard. It's definitely not easy for them.

I want to get it done or almost done before i post it on the comms (I'll probably lock the posts here, do the edits and then unlock them one at a time). I'm thinking about doing art for each chapter too, just little pencil sketches or something. That'll slow the posting time down and give the people who have already read and reviewed a reason to catch the new posts.

I think this is my slowest-developing relationship in a fic ever. So slow and careful...I have to pick every line from either one of them so precisely, or it'll go off on a tangent there's no returning from.

thanks so much for your feedback. I appreciate it.

For some reason, when I'm writing this fic, neither character is really high-sex or rush-rush-rush about it. They're a little strange, but really cool to write.

I am a jack of all trades,man. I'm good at a lot of stuff but not great at much. When learning a new skill, I got from beginner to intermediate very fast, but intermediate to advanced very slow. It's cool sometimes, but frustrating too. It's so easy at first, but getting really good is hard.

God, I love this verse. The way that Jared keeps on finding out about himself from other people is amazing. I really like how Jensen is so repressed. how he doesn't hope or really want things. I loved that exchange between Jensen and Garret "He likes to draw me" was so adorable and even in one way hopeful.

[ladyjanelly]

Jared's funny. I had no plan at all for him, but his family is giving me depth to write about, and a starting point to develop the character. I'm so haphazard as a writer it's ridiculous.

Jensen's so afraid of wanting or hoping, so afraid of the vulnerability that brings. It's tricky, as the writer, to slowly open him up at a believable speed.

Thanks for the comment. I appreciate it.
