comment fic meme!

[mimblexwimble]

Following the results of the poll we took last month (don't make it easy on us or anything, guys, haha!), we've decided to hold a comment fic meme once every three months. This gives everyone time to write and prompt to their heart's content, and allows us mods to keep up with y'all. And we're starting right now!

FILLED: Where There's Smoke 1

[roque_clasique]

Growing up, Sam had always figured that there was a cosmic deadline on certain things; if you didn’t do them by, say, age eighteen, you’d never do them at all. Having sex, for instance. Going to Disneyland. Getting kidnapped. Smoking.

In High School he’d sometimes sit outside at lunch and watch the smokers out of the corner of his eye, marveling at the stupidity of the act - it seemed like the most futile, dangerous thing to do to yourself, with no benefits that Sam could see besides looking cool. Which, okay, was a pretty big benefit in the world of adolescence, but in the grand scheme of things, cool wouldn’t do shit for you. It wouldn’t make you taller, it wouldn’t get you into college, it wouldn’t feed you, and it sure as hell wouldn’t save your ass from getting mauled by a charging werewolf. Cigarettes did nothing except make your teeth yellow and your lungs black; they didn’t even get you high, from what Sam could tell.

Oh, wow. That last line and also the bit about getting relief from his grief. And I can see in later years adding on the further addendum that it's not like he's going to live long enough to die of lung cancer anyways. <3

I'm so glad you liked it! And yeah, it's easy to be self-destructive when you don't expect to see thirty :( (Also, there's a company in my town called Sisbro, and I think of you every time I pass it *g*)

Aaaaaagh! That's EXACTLY what it was like!

23 years after the last cigarette I ever TOUCHED, much less SMOKED, and I still want one sometimes. I can remember that last one, too, as if it were yesterday.

I quit smoking; now I should be bloody IMMORTAL.

Eek, sorry if this made you want a cigarette! But glad you found it realistic?

Re: FILLED: Where There's Smoke 3

[rince1wind]

Yes, I did find it realistic. So realistic that it distracted me from your excellent story. *looks up at ceiling in embarrassment*

OH GOD THOSE LAST TWO LINES. This was a little tragic but mostly playful and then you get there, and it's like bam, twist the knife a little bit. It hurts, and I love it.

[roque_clasique]

Yay, so glad you liked it!

I ♥ your writing and want to go steady. But I guess I'll settle for metaphorically bumming a cigarette so I can bask in your presence!

OH SAM! I have so much love for this. Dean being so angry about it was an excellent touch.

And the last bit... Wow, that's a kicker!

All around a great fic. :)
