A couple of fics that I've enjoyed.

A Bizarre Love Triangle by riyku. J2 AU, PG-13, 7500 words.
Summary : In which Jensen hates his nickname and Jared looks very good in pink. Jensen's also carrying a torch for his best friend, but that's another thing entirely.

I've always had a soft spot for J2 stories in which one of them is secretly in love with the other. Two best friends growing up together, Jared aiming for the stars with his artistic talent leaving Jensen feeling that he's holding back his friend and on top of that trying to hide his love for Jared. Enters an Ivy-League type, old school friend who used to be on Jensen's case which made the story even better. Heh, I'm such a sucker for jealous, insecure Jensen lol.

Lovely story, this made my heart ache in all the right ways.

Bobby's story by verucasalt123. Sam/Dean, R, 1004 words.
Summary : Bobby’s take on the relationship between the Winchester brothers.

A short but poignant take on the brothers over the years through the eyes of Bobby. I love outside POVs and this one doesn't disappoint.

I really hate it when writers are recc'd, only to discover that they have their whole journal on friends lock. I just don't understand the reasoning behind writing a fanfic, posting it to a PUBLIC journal and then locking it down so no one except who you allow to can read it. Then a writer goes and complains that no one reads or comments on their stuff!!

Yup, it's upsetting being linked to flocked posts and I never did that!

Are you unable to read the above fics? They're not locked.

I tried to click on the second fic, and I get one of those "Frank the goat giving you the evil eye" access denied error messages. Very annoying. I tried to click on the author's name, but the fic doesn't seem to be there, so I'm guessing it's now flocked, even if it wasn't when you posted the link.

I've pm'd the author and hopefully she'll unlock the fic. Aargh, my bad :/

[shadowc44.livejournal.com]

Not your fault! Thanks for pm'ing the author.

[layne67.livejournal.com]

It's unlocked now!

[layne67.livejournal.com]

Shadowc44 told me that she can't access the story either. Ack, my bad and I apologize. But I think the author has unlocked the story now.

And you can read them on your awesome new phone!!!

[i-o-r-h-a-e-l.livejournal.com]

Of course

:D:D:D:D

These were both very enjoyable. Thanks for the rec!

The one thing I can't quite decide is whether or not Jared had any feelings towards that old school mate of theirs. I think it was just friendship on his part and it's just Jensen being insecure and feeling left out!
