Masterpost for Blessed Bees

A sweet story about bees, grace and unexpected solutions, by @ravenfuchs with adorable art by our own sweet @golby-moon !

Summary:

Castiel had longed for having his own beehives to tend to. When the opportunity presented itself to take two hives that needed to be relocated he was more than prepared for the task.

What he didn’t expect was that the two queens were on death’s door and that his efforts to ensure their survival would have implications not only for his loved ones but for all angel-kind.

Masterpost for The Sharp Sting Of Defeat

A lovely addition to our little bang by the amazingly multitalented @golby-moon !

A story about our favourite boys, hospital and some mild homophobia.

Summary:

Gavin's been a nurse for long enough to know that the weirdos always come in on the quiet days, and a guy having a severe allergic reaction to a bee sting and his spiky-haired friend just further proves that.

Read the story right here!

[golby-moon]

this was supposed to be paired with a fic that was actually already posted for the @destiel-buzzy-bee-bang but I haven't had power for multiple days so I couldn't post the art for it oop

I've never drawn a coffee machine and it shows in this one chat but an attempt was made and idk why I forced myself to draw so much furniture what was I thinking. I did have a vision for the title though so naturally I had to arrange everything to be as zesty as possible with the sugar packet and poor attempt at cursive and such (I never learned cursive and it also shows ghsjghjf)

oh no not me forcing myself to draw more furniture. background is noticeably lazy but I was short on time. also this was not the angle I originally started from but somehow Dean and Cas ended up awkwardly looking at each other from the doorway to the desk instead of side by side and idk how to feel about that

the fic this is made for is called "Gimme Some Sugar, Little Honeybee" by @hectatess for the destiel buzzy bee bang

Masterpost for Gimme Some Some Sugar, Little Honey Bee

Author @hectatess

Artist: @golby-moon

Link to story / Link to art

Summary;

It’s Dean’s last day working in the strip club, when Balthazar begs him to sub for Benny. Dean hesitates, of course. He’s due to start his respectable job as office assistant next Monday. What if someone recognises him? Balthy offers a great solution! No-one will be any wiser.

When Castiel has to find a new assistant, he hates that he has to interact with strangers. But then he recognises something in the eyes of his new assistant…

Masterpost for Don’t Bee Cruel

Author: @punk-is-notdead

Artist: @onowey

Link to story / Link to art

Summary:

Now human, Cas is training to be a nurse. One of his favourite patients knits him a bee sweater, which he wears with pride - despite it being a bit lopsided - that is, until two women at the hospital make fun of it.

Dean hatches a plan involving fake flirting, to get back at the women and make Cas feel better about his sweater. The fake flirting leads to actual flirting, which leads to, well...

[destiel-buzzy-bee-bang]

Posting day!

May 1st, dear hearts!

Time for our Buzzy Bees to post what they made! Keep an eye out for all the bee content on this page!

Masterpost for You Are Bee-utiful

Artist: @thestarsmakemedream-art

Author: @hectatess

Link to art/ Link to story

Summary:

When your cute, slightly awkward, but sweet as a gumdrop neighbour tells you he never had one of those humongous plushies you can win at the carnival, you offer up go get him one, right? Even if you’re not a fan of the whole carnival experience.

Yeah, so that is what Dean does.

[destiel-buzzy-bee-bang]

For all of you who were eagerly waiting for me to finally get my head on straight: Registration is now OPEN!

Feel free to share this with your Destiel author and artist friends and let’s fill the first of May 2025 with happy, buzzy Destiel goodies!!

Love, Beekeeper Hectatess

does anyone know wtf word-stream.com is or where to send them a takedown request? i just found a bunch of fics, including my own, hosted on this AI slop site—apparently offering what I assume are AI-generated audiobook versions & (equally AI-generated) ratings and reviews. i can’t take a closer look without signing up, which, no thank you, but it looks like they’re hosting the full fics and are peddling a paid subscription for the trouble of hosting them. can someone more knowledgeable than me explain what our options are in this situation?

[makicarn]

First of all, I'm really sorry to all the authors that have had their works stolen and hosted on this site, this really sucks.

If you try to click on any of the sites, you get a link to the App Store app, which is called "WordStream - Audiobooks".

Who is Ofek Weitzman? Apparently he's also known as Cliff Weitzman, the CEO of Speechify, an AI Voice generator app famous for its partnership with Snoop.

Also, Cliff Weitzman is named as the copyright holder at the bottom:

If you search for Ofek/Cliff Weitzman, you find his name in the terms and conditions for Speechify.

Strange that someone with a legitimate company with a partnership with Brandon Sanderson would put their name behind a shady company stealing works from fanfic writers, but it may be worth reaching out to him on X.

Best case scenario is that someone has stolen the name for an app, but in that case, it would be good for him to know.

Otherwise, it would be good to start a dialogue about how authors can get their works taken down from this site!

[makicarn]

It really does seem like this is the right guy to contact, based on the Youtube channel for WordStream, which features Cliff Weitzman!

Given his desire to work with authors, I hope he's responsive to fanfic writers and can get everyone's works taken down.

[ekingston]

Thank you @makicarn & @fazedlight (see her reblog in the tags) for finding more information!! According to the listings for the app it's only been live since October, which explains why we haven't heard much about it yet. The website also purports to provide access to AI-voiced classic novels like (at a glance) Pride and Prejudice, Moby Dick and Sherlock Holmes, all of which are all in the public domain, which leads me to think the creator of the website wrongfully assumes copyright doesn't pertain to fan fiction.

Per @echoekhi 's advice (who's done invaluable work for fandom with their project Copy-Knight) I have contacted OTW Legal, hoping they can help. Because word-stream doesn't list a formal policy regarding copyright violations, and Weitzman doesn't appear to publically own up to his connection to the website anywhere, (correction: I just watched the YouTube shorts Maki linked to and his face is right there along with the boast that we can access all of these free works for just one teensy payment, isn’t that just SO GENEROUS OF HIM) I agree with them that it's inadvisable to file a DMCA takedown at this point. I wouldn't trust it 1. with my personal information and 2. for it to actually go anywhere. That being said it's definitely something to keep an eye on and obviously anyone whose work is listed there should do their own research and decide for themselves which steps they want to take.

Sorry to bring attention to such a crummy thing right before the holidays!!

[destiel-buzzy-bee-bang]

Well, I’m sorry to say that due to this development, I have taken the precaution of locking my works for not registered users on AO3. I never wanted this, because I felt my stories should be accessible, but this is just thievery!, and I will not have others profit from my readers!

[destiel-buzzy-bee-bang]

OH MY JACK!!! I forgot to start this on December 1st!!! What do I do now?

Open up on New Years Day. We can manage even with a month less time

Push the whole Vang forward a month, too bad about May 1st, but eh.

Skip this year.

Save The Bees

Go ahead and read this sweet meet-cute that @ishipdestiel submitted this bang! I absolutely adore it!

[golby-moon]

so I heard about something called @destiel-buzzy-bee-bang actually last year and internally died over it since then because I was a couple months too late to participate and only knew it existed when I found a fic for it last year so yeah there was some hype involved. and now look I threw art at a fic for it :000

the fic in question is very silly so I went with a silly sorta style for this as far as the expressions go. Dean is a nurse here putting an IV in Cas' arm because Cas has allergies uh oh (hence the red skin that I definitely didn't go overboard on uh) and oh look they so happen to be soulmates, which Meg just realized as well. I've never drawn any of the hospital-y stuff before so if anything looks terrible (looking at you curtains and IV pole) that'd be why uh

yeah. anyway

the soulmate marks are based on the Mark of Cain as well as honeycomb. I don't think this is exactly what my author had in mind but it gets the point across at least I think. also I've never drawn Cas with a beard before how terrible does it look be honest

the fic this is made for is called "Honey Honey" by @callalilycas for the destiel buzzy bee bang

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

[destiel-buzzy-bee-bang]

Will you look at this? What an amazing collaboration! Thank you so much for making this!!!

[hexentaenzerin]

Cas craved some honey and Dean knew just the right spot. art for the @destiel-buzzy-bee-bang

Will you look at this! Those two… one day they will kill me… with cuteness
