one last thing about Supernatural fanwork

"(on a sorta related note: someone on the anon meme was like, "what do you want? for people to write the J2 as POC in these fics?" and I thought, 'heeeeey. wait. PEOPLE COULD DO THAT. (okay, on second thought, they would probably do awful things with it. but the idea! ) except wait--you were joking? so, why not? come on, don't tell me that's deviating from "canon" more than jared being a mermaid or jensen being a submissive ship captain IN SPACE.' I love how THAT's a total random and implausible suggestion--making the J2 actual participants in these cultures people want to write about, instead of sparkly white journalists)"

-- and really what I got from it was "what do you want? for people to write the J2 as POC in these fics?" and "heeey wait. PEOPLE COULD DO THAT" combined with the fact that my mind is currently full of the awesome that is The Racebending Revenge Ficathon --

And yeah. Stuff happened.

I used Sam and Dean instead of Jared and Jensen because I'm not really into J2. But the idea remains the same.

Hm, well. That didn't go too well for Sam and Dean. Guess I'll try again later?

ETA: ZOMG, PART TWO!!!!

Edit: wait, I have more to say.

You gave them Indian(ish?) names and deported them to Mexico for being brown. Ahahahahaha except why does that not seem at all unreasonable given.... anyway, nice.

OH OBLIVIOUS DEAN I ♥ YOU SO.

Poor old man whathisface!

(I love this like delicious cake.)

I lolled.

Also that Dean is rly rly cute. *_*

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

ahahaha oh dear.

But it's true- I'm sure I've read someone who pointed out that a lot of the shenanigans that they manage to pull off are because of white privilege- two white men can handwave "we're supposed to be here! really!" waaay more than two men of color. It would be a totally different show. (I'd watch it, though!)

Also your colored intro pic is SO PRETTY. *_*

It was the awesome

How are you made of this much awesome?
Sometimes I wonder if you let it through your art so you wont burst into flying unicorns and talking rainbows.

AHAHAHA this is amazing <333

Yes. This is. This IS what I want. <3

This is awesome.

ILU.

You're pretty much my hero.

I ADORE YOU.
Even though you didn't hold off this the ficathon deadline. But you MUST link it there, and drag in more minions, sorry, fanartists, to produce such wonderful work. <3 <3 <3

I knoooow I feared it might lose its relevancy/connection to the Haiti SPN fic controversy, hence the early posting. D'oh! But I'd like to draw more for the comic, so I can link it all there!

Thank you again for this idea, I am so excited about it!

I LOVE YOU SFM, OMG. :D :D :D \o/

i actually laughed out loud in real life! this is so great.

AWE. SOME.

Ha!

I was gonna work on a PoC Sam & Dean manip due to all of this. But I don't have to now, cause;

1) Desi Sam & Dean - woot!

2) Comic!

3) Fatal lessons about discrimination.

Ooooh, do it anyway!

This is awesome!

Oh, excellent! ♥

(Here from [Bad username or unknown identity: glass_icarus"]'s rec.)

That is awesome beyond the telling of it. :D

I WOULD WATCH THIS VERSION OF SPN IN A HEARTBEAT.

Also, I nominate Gina Torres for Castiel.

Best Idea I've Heard All Day!

*dies from awesome*

I'm just going to quote my IM conversation with the person who linked me to this:

"I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
I'm sort of doing both at the same time.
Either way though, FUCK IS THAT ART AWESOME."

I vehemently agree with myself from 15 minutes ago!
