Brittana/Faberry Fic Recs

Hi! Here’s a list I compiled of some of my all time favorite Brittana and Faberry fics! I was originally going to separate the list by Faberry and Brittana, but many of the stories have both, so instead you can just read the pairings listed for each. They are sorted by multi-chapter complete, multi-chapter incomplete/in progress, and one-shots. Each title is a link you can click on to take you to the fic. All credit goes to their respective authors :)

Also, here’s a quick rating guide in case you needed to know:

GA/PG - General Audience

T - Teen

M - Mature

E - Explicit

NR - Not rated

That’s all, I hope you enjoy!

anything could happen (T) - One-shot - Pairings: Rachel/Quinn - She stared down at the test in her hand. The line was faint, disappearing depending on the angle.

RE: Hiveswap '17-09-14

IT. HAS. ARRIVED.

FINALLY!

Wow, it feels so unreal, but we're gonna do it! Tonight we'll install the game and hopefully play a little bit already. We've decided to install the DRM-free version, I just hope we won't regret missing out on any achievements or shit.

Dang though, I can't wait to see what neat little tidbits of the Homestuck universe we'll get to learn about. What vague conspiracies Jude believes in (or not) that we can snicker about. What references to old memes we'll encounter. (Is... Is that John Cusack?) ... The ones that What Pumpkin could make without infringing on copyright, that is.

Will there be references to Bro? To ancestors of the original A2 troll group? It just dawned on me 'A2 trolls' is no longer a valid descriptor to distinguish the twelve orginals from other character trolls. It's probably still going to be used, but I suppose 'Homestuck trolls' and 'Hiveswap trolls' is a valid distinction too.

I'm certainly excited to learn more about Grandpa Harley! Anything that demystifies those elusive Guardians is a gift indeed!

Over the past few days, we've seen the hype building. We Love Fine sending out mails, I think to promote new prints, haven't watched actually. And just now that we check our mail, it turns out there's a new release on Bandcamp, even on the Homestuck one, not a new one! It's... probably the Grubbles album? Probably? :)

So, without much further ado, let's go and see!

----

Ooh, the download also includes the music!

I wonder what the deal is with Humblebundle's "sign in to claim this page" link.

Oooh, the game is 1.9 GB (archived)! I don't know what I was expecting, but it's definitely largeish!

Heehee, I like the logo icon, HS against a spiral sucker background. (Could be used for a future pin.) The spiral will be an integral part of the key to the portal, but I wonder if it'll show up elsewhere.

The archive contains 277 files... accounting for a whopping 5 Gigabyte! Wowee!

---

Wow, that menu looked gorgeous. I love that the castle is taunted, even though it doesn't have the focus in this game. Talk about a bait and switch!

I've come to wonder, after reading the first few introductory lines for Joey, whether it's not Hauntswitch though, that would be quite something! That make for good material for the other game! A mysterious place, not just a mansion, to explore with Jude and Dammek. Maybe the town was originally called "Haunt's Witch" or something.

Anyway, the intro was every bit as delightful as I could hope.

And Joey's introduction every bit as Homestuck.

"SEMI-ORPHAN", though. :( Guess Grandpa really neglects his parental duties. "ASPIRING VETERINARIAN" :D Being good with animals is probably part of why Tesseract looks so well fed. And it'll help her on Alternia, no doubt. And even now, to know the monsters' weaknesses and how to perhaps passify them? Also, I wonder if "multiple" dance schools means she knows more than tap dance and ballet!

I love how the backgrounds come to live, it's just so good to look at them in the intended resolution! The music is so good, too. Really top notch job all around!

Eesh, I notice that using Alt+Tab to switch between Windows has the downside that Alt is also a key that forwards the dialogue...

I guess the laser backdrop from those teaser pictures, is just the default background for the playable character's icon!

Heheheh, the hint function is disabled for now. My bet is it's enabled as soon as you have the magnifying glass. "it won't any good" <- typo

OOOOOOOH!!! GOD YES!! Hiveswap supports multiple save files!! That. Is. A. Life saver. Saving just before a battle? Before combining Glowy Thing 1 with Sinister Crevass 2? Hell yes.

Hmm, something buggy about clicking on Joey's icon at this stage. The cursor turned into an iris, and I had to click the hint button to get it away.

Ooooh! Hell yes, the header can be minimized!!!

LOOKing at the calendar, it turns out the date is ACTUALLY NOVEMBER 11TH, 1994!! God dag nabbit! So, what, the monsters have something to do with Betty Crocker? Did Condy try something on 2x2 prong day in B1, it failed, and then she just thought to herself "needs more prongs" and did it again later in B2?

We can try to MARK the calendar, yet it's already got a cross for the date. Oh, heh, that just gives the same response. It's probably to keep us on our toes, since we can't be sure every command has a different outcome!

LOOKing at the ballet shoes, we learn about Joey's aspirations to create "Ballap", pfffff.

And, welp, guess Print Screen is also an action key.

EQUIPing the ballet shoes... We learn about ABILITECHS and TECHNICHES. Perfection. Goodbye SYLLADICES and SPECIBII! Say hello to the good old school technology of our youth. :P "In my day, we didn't have those newfangled SYLLADILLIES you youngsters swing about, oh no!"

LOOKing at the posters, Joey talks about how her posters talk to her in her dreams, talking about a better world past the stars. I doubt they mean Alternia. :P Also, dreams, eh? Even if she's not a Sburb players, her dreams could still be prophetic in a way.

Clicking on the light switch... Actually works, hahah! I thought for sure the power would be out right now!

Oh, so the eyeball was meant to go on the ceiling only, heh. And, the plush on the bed. N'awww, so Joey and Ms. Clair both worked on the ceiling. And she calls it a "mural", which of course reminds me of the ones in Problem Sleuth!

Oh, the oven near the closet was her birthday present "last year". I wonder what her birthday is. Seems like it's more of a children's oven, in that it probably doesn't produce edible cake, I think? (Welp @ her comment regarding not having a mom.)

And speaking of Moms!! The wizard globe is present from Mom! Or, well, Roxy, I guess she should be called. The B1 version. So she really IS Joey and Jude's babysitter. Or at the very least, she was until last year. Wait, no, it doesn't specify a year. Anyway, I guess this little corner of her room is full of presents she's received. Also, Roxy be Roxying.

Oooh, those books start Joey of on a BOOK REPORT she has to hand in! She goes to school! Or at least, has tutors. Pfff, Old Yeller reference for the win. "You kind of hate your teachers sometimes." Yeah, let's keep Tess nice and safe, shall we?

I like Blaperile's idea that Jude would take Dammek to school. Since they're probably going to be swapped for sometime, it just might happen. Imagining Dammek sitting in class, refusing to take off a high hat. Hmm, okay, but November 11th is a Friday apparently (dang American week day numbering system!) so it's probably not going to happen. I think 48 hours is more than enough time to swap them back.

Blaperile saw that November 11th was a holiday for America just like it is where we live, so that means Joey & Jude probably spent the whole day goofing around with Tess like we saw in the intro scene. Veterans Day, more like Aspiring Veterinarians Day, amirite?

---

So, first few steps in the game, taken. Save file location, found. (Can't hide from me, I'm a programmer!) Hype feelings, assuaged. :D

I'm captivated by what few things I've already seen, looking forward to the next!

For people eager to see me and Blaperile's gameplay reaction, strap on, it's going to be a long ride! (If you're wondering why we don't just film ourselves playing - English isn't our first language.)

Hhopp’s Destiel Angst-a-Thon

Alrightyyy gonna need everyone’s help with this one.

I’ve been stuck in a writing rut. I’m trying to get back into it and I really wanna write some destiel. So I’ve got a huge list of angst prompts (idk why but I love writing angst and whump), but I need motivation. Please, if you have any interest at all, send me a number. If you have any additional details/requests, please send off anon so I can message you to clarify.

��Can you please come and get me?” (hs/college au)

“I’m at the hospital”

“Hey, don’t do that, you’ll hurt yourself”

“How long has it been since you’ve slept?”

“You’re burning up”

“No, don’t cry, I hate it when you cry” (Dean saying)

“Because I care about you!”

“You look sad” (Probably a kid!fic or some lack of maturity type of deal for this one, w/ Cas saying)

“Please, don’t leave me alone”

“Oh god, you’re bleeding”

“Hey, just look at me. Breathe.”

“Hold my hand. You’re going to be fine”

“You need to eat something”

“Stop telling me you’re okay” (Dean saying)

“Don’t touch me!” (Dean saying)

You’re severely depressed and I’m too scared to leave you alone (Cas’ POV. At this point they wouldn’t be dating but that would happen by the end, they’re friends and/or roommates when this bit happens)

One day, {A} comes home with bloody knuckles and beat up face and is shaking, {B} tries to ask what happened and what’s wrong but {A} just locks themselves in their room. Imagine {B} banging on the door and yelling for {A} to let them in and {B} being so worried but {A} won’t let them in. Imagine {B} just sitting outside of the bedroom door all night and {A} is sitting on the other side of the door

“You’re okay. Breathe. Just breathe. Open your eyes. Come back. It’s okay. It’s over now. You’re okay. Wake up. Please wake up. Don’t do this to me. Don’t do this to me. Don’t do this to me. I love you so much. Come back.”

{A} gets kidnapped by some people, and {B} has to find them somehow. He finds {A} alive but he’s horribly injured mentally and psychologically. {B} is hurt seeing {A} in such a state; flinching away from people, jumping at sudden noises or movement, afraid of being alone. (Dean is probably A but if you make me a strong enough case we can switch it)

{A} is under their desk, with a bottle of alcohol, crying their eyes out when {B} finds them and pulls them into a hug. {A} soaks {B}’s shirt with their tears. (Dean is A)

“It’ll be warmer if we cuddle together….” (post-hypothermia-- this would be the gist of what is said but I can’t really see either of them saying the word “cuddle”)

“Are you telling me our years of struggle meant nothing?” (apocalypse AU, not within canon)

“Music is my getaway” (Selective mutism on Dean’s part)

“I don’t understand how you haven’t left me yet” (Dean saying)

“How can’t you see I’m fading?” (Cas saying)

“You promise?”

“Please, let me go”

“Don’t look at me, I’m disgusting” (mpreg. Either Cas is pregnant and Dean doesn’t know it yet, or Dean is 5 months or further and is hormonal. No a/b/o)

{A} suffers with depression, and {B} has been supporting them through it as much as they can. Since {A} doesn’t like the word depression, {A} and {B} have always referred to their depressing thoughts as “the monsters”. For a period of time, {A} becomes really happy, which makes {B} happy. However, one day, when {B} comes home, {A} wraps their arms around {B} and starts crying. When {B} asks what’s wrong, {A} whispers, “The monsters came back.” (Again: Dean is probably A but if you make a strong enough case, we can switch it)

{A} helping {B} through a panic attack via Skype

“Is there any reason as to why you’re getting drunk in the middle of a Tuesday afternoon?” (Cas saying)

“I just don’t want to think for a while.”

“Say it again.”

“Don’t lie to me.”

“I didn’t mean it like that, and you know it!” (Dean saying)

“Is that— blood?” (Dean saying)

“Does that feel good?” (Cas saying)

“You deserve better.” (Dean saying)

“Is that all you’ve got?” (They’re physically fighting each other for whatever reason, the one saying this is bloody and bruised and probably has a few broken bones, is lying on the ground and clearly losing but he’s mad at himself and think they deserve this so he’s trying to rile up the other into hitting him again. Early stages of the relationship.)

“Why do you even care?”

“I’m not going to break.”

“You don’t scare me.” (Dean saying, see #39. Probably a similar type of deal but if you’ve got a completely different idea tell me)

“It’s okay, I’m here.” (A hospital is probably involved. And I think I want Cas to be saying it, visiting Dean)

One finds the other about to commit suicide and stops them (strangers/acquaintances/friends at this point)

“Who gave you that black eye?” (Idc who says, but it’s a young-ish AU with no monsters. Could have been a homophobe, could’ve been someone else)

“You haven’t even touched your food. What’s going on?” (Cas saying)

“I’m pregnant.” (Dean saying, no a/b/o)

“I’m your husband. It’s my job.”

“I won’t let you get hurt.”

“You’re strong, baby. You have to be.”

“I can’t stand seeing you like this.”

“Me and the boys will handle it.”

“Come on, baby, up to bed.” (Dean saying, Cas is miserable either emotionally or physically after taking a very bad beating. Could be canon, could be AU. Established relationship, but you can choose how long it’s been going on)

“Trust me.”

“Did they hurt you?”

“I don’t need a hero, I need a husband.” (They are already married at this point)

“Don’t shut me out.”

“You can’t just hug me and think everything’s okay.”

“Is he coming home?” (Sam would probably be saying this)

“Quit moving, I’m trying to sleep. Wait…are you…what?!” (Must be interpreted as angst)

“Use your words.” (Maybe Cas trying to coax Dean out of selective mutism. Could be futile, could be not. But full maturity and mental capability to speak. So no kidfics or anything like that)

“I just need ten minutes.” (Dean saying)

“I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.”

“It wasn’t supposed to be this way.”

“The blood’s just from a nosebleed; don’t worry about it.” (They had a fight, speaker stormed out. Came back several hours later with a bruised, bloody face. Still mad at the other, storms off but other follows him and tries to patch him up. Story comes out and they make up. AU, canon?)

“I’m just as screwed up as you are.” (Dean saying, probably a no monsters AU)

“This is bad, right?” (Cas, high on pain meds after a really bad accident/fight, breaking Dean’s heart because he looks so damaged and broken in this hospital bed but he has this dorky little smile on his face and he’s smiling like a little kid who doesn’t understand why the grownups seem so upset)

“Sometimes I feel like I’m tearing myself apart and I can’t stop.” (Dean saying)

“I just want a hug.”

“I don’t understand why you feel like you have to keep this kind of thing from me.” (Cas saying)

“Hey I heard yelling and crying coming from your apartment and I just wanted to make sure everything was okay” AU (Everything is not okay)

“Tell me what happened. Tell me why everything happened. It’ll be okay, I promise you, it’ll all be okay, but I need you to tell me.” (Dean saying)

“Don’t look at me like that.”

“I can’t do this without you.”

“Don’t let go of my hand through this, please.”

“You need to help me, I can’t do this alone.”

“You’re worth any fight.” (No magic AU)

“I’m crying on the floor and nothing’s right, but I know you can make this better.” (probably a prayer)

“I can’t depend on anyone else, just you.”

“Thank you for always being here for me.”

“You could call be at any time and I’d drop anything if you needed me.” (Dean saying, no magic AU)

“I’ll still be here when you get back.” (Cas saying, no magic AU)

“Can you give me a ride?” (Cas saying, no magic AU)

“Come here, let me give you a hug.” (Gist of what is being said, not the exact words)

“You ran to get here this quickly?!” (Dean saying, something is wrong and he called Cas who lives somewhere else. Most likely a highschool AU, Cas as a pastor’s son and they’re dating under the radar. Dean’s at home, Cas ran either from church or from his house a few neighborhoods away)

“I need you.”

“I don’t like lightning.” (PTSD, Dean saying. Trauma is up to you, so long as it isn’t war. I can’t write soldier stuff.)

“Don’t get up, i’ll do it.”

"I just want to go home" (“Home doesn’t exist anymore!”) (no monsters apocalypse AU)

"I'm not good enough for you.” (Dean saying)

"Wake up... please wake up..."

"Keep breathing, you'll be fine."

"Oh, you're awake! You've been out for so long!”

"Don't try to move. Just get some rest, okay?”

"Shh... take it easy, there's no rush. You were passed out for a long time, hon."

“I can't hold on... fading away.." (this is the gist of what is being said)

"What happened? Where is this-!"

"Gah! S-stay away from m-me! I don't know who you are!” (amnesia)

"Help me up… please help me up…" (“No, you need to stay… stay right where you are. Don’t move, that’ll make it worse. N-no, don’t! Don’t move!”)

Other things:

I don’t write smut.

3k word limit, but it has to be really good for me to go that far. 500-1k is more likely, or a drabble.

I’m open to writing deaths

Outside of that, though, I’m pretty sure these’ll have happy endings.

I haven’t seen s12 yet so if we’re doing canonverse it’ll all be s11 or before

Feel free to request multiple. In fact, spam my inbox with requests. Seriously, you’ll be making my day.

If I really can’t write something, I’ll let you know and you can choose another prompt if you’d like

You should tell me if you want canonverse because my automatic writing mode is AU

I like reading a/b/o but not writing it.

I. DON’T. WRITE. SMUT.

Genderbend is fine, but specify

You gotta tell me if you have any triggers I shouldn’t use. I’ll tag just in case either way, but put that in your request.

I’ll write pregnancy, but no parenting

I really like hs/college aus

I might do tropes without request but it’s rare, so if you want one, suggest it.

We aren’t doing anything remotely “Twist and Shout”-y.

They’re two really broken characters, so there’s no way for their relationship to be perfect. But this will be as healthy a relationship as can be with them

Minimal, low-level profanity. I don’t think that’s an acute problem to anyone but I don’t do the whole swearing thing.

I’m not an expert on a lot of things so I won’t be able to write things like legalese or mechanic speak

No previous/implied wincest.

Monogamous if they’re established (By this I mean that it’s fine for Dean to be sleeping around, just not if he and Cas are already an item)

I’m terrible at making puns so that’s probably out. Drunk banter might be in but we’ll have to see. Tell me if you don’t want sarcasm spewing constantly from Dean’s cakehole because otherwise it will

Characters who I probably won’t use

Kevin

John

Crowley

Ruby

Lisa & Ben

Zachariah (unless he’s unseen, like the beater for 17 or 45)

Samuel

Lucifer

Anna

Gadreel

Hannah

Metatron

Michael

Uriel (unless he’s unseen, like the beater for 17 or 45)

Abaddon

Azazel

Alastair

Garth

Becky

Rowena

Henriksen

Amara

Death

Characters who are definitely within the realm of possibility for appearances/involvement:

Sam

Mary

Charlie

Jo (Yes, I’ll ship Charlie and Jo)

Meg

Bobby

Ellen (Bobby/Ellen is fine)

Naomi

Chuck

Bela (Bela/Meg is not impossible)

Samandriel

Tessa

Jimmy

Claire

Cain (I love him tbh)

Donna

Jody (I’ll ship Donna and Jody)

Rufus

Ash

Emma (Dean’s Amazon daughter)

The Ghostfacers (probably in an AU, though)

Pamela

Benny (love him, too) (he and dean will not and will never have dated)

Jess

I don’t think you understand how much I love mpreg

I like roommate AUs (college dorms, broke students sharing an apartment, strangers who share, Sam introduced them because they were looking for someone to split the rent with, they grew up together and are the best of friends and decided to move in together-- really, anything’s fair game)

I’m pretty sure that’s everything but I’ll update if anything else comes to mind
