Homeless!Jensen fic squee.

Anybody here reading In From The Cold by ladyjanelly?

This verse has been posted for quite some time, but for some reasons, I have this strange reluctance to rec it. Not because I don't like it, oh no, not at all, and also not because it's a WIP ( there're 15 chapters up now, the author updates regularly ). It's more like because I love it so much, so much so that I feel like hugging it to my chest, to savour lovingly and in private, like a child with an ice-cream which she refuses to share with anybody. Which is ridiculous rather, since she has lots of people reading that fic.

Someone had described 'In From The Cold' as a graceful fic and I can't agree with her more. The pace is slow and gentle, but never boring. It's lovingly paced out, and the chapters are like petals of a flower opening up one by one. The words, lines and paras are like tiny, barely-there kisses brushing over your erotic spots, like words whispered in the dark of the nights, like lullabies sung to a baby ...

Anyway *clears throat* the story is a J2 AU, Jensen is a homeless person who has no idea who or what he was, while Jared is the paramedic who takes care of Jensen when he comes into his clinic late one night, broken and beaten. This story has almost all of my kinks in it - it has Jared patching and cleaning up Jensen, Jared taking Jensen in, Jared teaching Jensen to read *whimpers*, but the story is not just about Jared taking care of Jensen, it's also the other way around, and oh my, Jensen taking care of Jared is so very sweet it makes my heart melt every which way.

I can't rec this gentle and beautiful story highly enough!

Also, digitalwave made this lovely cover-art to go with the story.
