Causing a big fuss

nilchanceRescued 5 animals last weekend (105 total), 3 kittens and 2 flinch-y barking scared dogs. One of the dogs was a German Shepard, with that ear-shredding bark that made me nervous, but the cats were like, "pft, whatever," and they nursed on my fingers with their tiny sharp teeth. One time the dog started up, and the littlest kitten went *squeak?*, and the dog shut up for an hour.
RECS:
SPN, gen: Tin Soldier. Dean is cold, Castiel is fading, and Sam is surprisingly even keel. Also, someone is raising the dead. This fic is inverted trope after inverted trope, and it's got genuine horror. I love that. I love her Castiel and her Dean and her Sam, and I loved the OCs, and ohgod, if I list all the things I loved, I'm going to spoil it. Just go read it. Warnings first.
BBC Sherlock Holmes, Mycroft/Anthea het: The Art of Scheduling, or, How Mycroft Came to Realize He Was Well and Utterly Fucked: It suited him, and he assumed it suited her for she'd never given any indication otherwise. I know nothing about BBC Sherlock, nothing about Anthea, and very little about Mycroft except that he was in that Gaiman Lovecraft/Holmes crossover. I still love this fic, a sharp sweet cat's-cradle of power exchanges and clever dialogue and hot sex, framed around additions Anthea made to Mycroft's appointment book.
CWRPS, Jeff/Jensen, AU: A Kept Boy is complete at 88 chapters and 200k+. Becausepoisontaster is freaking amazing. I write stories that tie into hers, but that's not why you should try it out. It's a love story, and it's hard, and it's gorgeous; it's a thorny labyrinth with a bed in the center where you can rest.
Essay: Sticks and stones: anger, responsibility and control. It's an essay about bullying, to some extent, and about the way adults teach kids to deal with anger by denying that they have it. By undermining what one feels with "oh, you're not angry, you're not REALLY angry," until the kid in question can't recognize their internal emotional cues anymore.
