Countdown to slashpocalypse in three... two....
Posting this here because it's early days yet. I mean, this could get so much bigger. (And I'm feeling kind of evil for hoping it does.)
The scary starts when zenamydog posts in the dean_sam community (complete with scrolling text, which I refuse to duplicate):
MISHA WANTS MORE SLASH!
It’s all over the fandom. At the recent LA convention, Misha Collins was quoted as saying…
“I'm fascinated by this slash fic thing. I’ve read only one, but it stuck with me. I'd like to find out more, if I could do it without being molested."
Well, Misha… Your wish is our command.
As some of you may know, I am going to the convention in Vancouver in August.
So here is the idea folks… If Misha wants more… Then let’s give it to him.
So what am I after? (under the cut)
Working Title: MISHA’S LITTLE BOOK OF FANFICTION.
I plan to put together 6-8 fanfiction stories and present it to him when I have the opportunity. I will have it bound and my hope is that it will have some great artwork on the front. ANY TAKERS?
I need REC’S REC’S AND MORE REC’S. But there is a condition… The Author must know you’ve REC’d it, so if it’s used, they won’t get a shock when I ask their permission.
Obviously if your rec is one of the fics that go into this, then the Author will need to give consent. You may let the writer know that it can be included anonymously if they wish. Self rec’s are very welcome.
Good meaty fics folks… (Try saying that fast.) Plot is very important.
Fics must be between 2,000 and 10,000 words and complete.
CATAGORIES

Mods please delete if not allowed.
She also made an identical post on spnstoryfinders, but it has since been deleted. Perhaps the mods did not, in fact, allow it!
So far, it's four pages of people saying OH HELL NO. And one or two people who are, incredibly, for it. The latter commenter especially seems to have an epic case of Not Getting It:
Personally, I don't think he'd be all that upset if they are about CHARACTERS, characters are NOT real people. It would be like giving Harrison Ford a Han Solo and Luke Skywalker slash... he might not be 'into' it, but I DOUBT he'd be offended.
And somehow, the twin spectres of
Harry Potter and Strikethrough rear their ugly heads. Because in the end, everything always comes back to HP.
EDIT: Deleted, alas (or... yay? for sanity's sake?), but I managed to save it:
Page 1Page 2Page 3Page 5Screencaps of collapsed threads and of page 4 (which, for some reason, insisted on only saving as the "no such post" screen) forthcoming. And I really need to get me some of that full-page-screencapping action.
EDIT THE SECOND: Screencaps of collapsed comment threads and all of page 4.
