summary: Or, A Love Story in Three Beats

“These records belong to my father. Waverly gave me his address, some nice house in the suburbs. Asked me if I wanted it for myself,” Gaby admitted after New York.

“I was youngest KGB agent ever qualified. My comrades...were not pleasant about it,” Illya confessed as he stroked his scar in Amsterdam.

“I was going to keep the watch,” Napoleon let slip while in Istanbul.

Two years of missions, from trafficking rings to spy hunters, attempted kidnappings, underground boxing matches, and sanctioned bank robberies. The three of them have found sharing secrets helps.The traveling and the teamwork are nice, but the steadily building sexual tension none of them know how to acknowledge keeps causing a spike in their plans while working for a company that has barely gotten its feet under it. The best they can do is scramble.

“Castiel Novak might have to attend three weddings in two months, but he’s not about to let his brother play matchmaker. His family’s Internet streaming company is too important to let a relationship steal his time, but he knows exactly what to do–hire someone to pretend to be his boyfriend.Dean Winchester has worked five-star hospitality long enough to know how to fit in with Castiel’s crowd, and this job could score him the connections to make his acting career take off. It’s a business deal, no matter how they’re drawn to each other. When the lines of their contract start to blur into real feelings, can they withstand Castiel’s family and jealous fans working to split them up?”

My Notes:  This fic totally did not go as I expected it to.  It was a really cute story and super pulled me in at the beginning, but somewhere it kindof...lost me.  Now I will say that I read this while sick and in a bit of a fog, so take what I say with a grain of salt, but the writing style could be a little convoluted in that it was almost too detail heavy at times and got a little distracting for me personally.  Still, I really enjoyed this story, and the fact that the author integrated music into the fic.  I’ll give it a B-/C+.

Fic: Heart

Author: Speary

Rating: M

Word Count: ~90k

“The heart is a funny thing. Some say it loves, and others say that it is just a muscle, keeping you alive for some minuscule amount of time. For Cas Shurley, the heart was a defective reminder that each day was maybe going to be his last. For years he had been in and out of hospitals. For years he had viewed time as something trickling down the drain. Then Sam Winchester died. He died, and Cas got to live. And in what universe was that fair? But he accepted the gift, and told himself that he would live. Each beat of Sam’s heart in his chest was an anthem, a siren song beckoning him back to life.

This new heart though, wanted him to do more than just live. This heart had a story to tell. It would wake him up in the night, and visit him with cold drafts and a sense of purpose that would propel him out of bed. But before he could truly live and act on the demands of his new heart, he would have to get out of the hospital, and he would have to meet the Winchester family. And though he didn’t know it, he would especially have to meet Dean, Sam’s brother. And meeting him would remind him of just how much more there was to life than just the living.

Written for the 2015 DCBB.”

My Notes:  This fic was not at all what I expected.  The first few chapters were the story I thought the summary was hinting at, but then the plot got a more complicated and slightly confusing.  It also seemed like more of a Cas-centric fic than a Destiel fic.  All of that worked pretty well, though.  I will say that there were two things that kind of pulled me out of the story.  The first was writing style - there was a lack of contractions, especially in dialogue, which is just a personal pet peeve of mine.  The second was that everyone seemed to kindof go in and out of character.  Still, it’s an interesting story and i really liked how the author wrapped everything up in the end (also the art ties into the story really well). I’ll give it a B-/B.

Fic: Don’t Let it Burn (http://archiveofourown.org/works/1517858/chapters/3208802?view_adult=true)

“Cas and Dean have been through much together; they got married, expanded their businesses, dealt with health scares and the ups and downs of making a relationship work. Now expecting their first child, life is busy and happy for both of them. Cas is invited to be part of a new show on Food Network. He and several other chefs, including up and comer John Bartholomew, are the judges for a new high-stakes competition show. He’s flying to New York a lot, while Dean holds down the fort back in Kansas. Dean’s a pretty happy guy these days. He’s given Benny more control of Winchester and Sons, in preparation for cutting his hours back when the baby comes. There are new babies in their extended family and Ben’s on the Dean’s list at Stanford, really, things couldn't be better. One drunk driver, and tragedy hits the Winchesters hard. Dean’s entire world is upended in one night, and he needs Cas more than ever, but Cas is in New York more and more, leaving Dean to deal with the situation in Kansas. He’s falling apart, slowly but surely, close to the edge and about to tumble over, and Dean can't help but wonder if anyone will be left to catch him when he inevitably falls.“

My Notes:  So this fic is DARK.  I mean, I expected angst going in, but I didn’t expect like people hitting absolute rock bottom angst.  I also didn’t expect it to take up as much of the story as it did.  Honestly, I think that the biggest issue with this fic was that there wasn’t enough time spent coming out of the angst and on the happy ending.  It’s not a bad story, but I really wanted more.  Overall, I’ll give it a B.

Fic: Half Price Gemini (http://archiveofourown.org/works/3370175/chapters/7370528)

“ After his twin's death and a hospital mix-up eccentric artist Castiel is left with his brother Jimmy's identity and responsible for Claire, Jimmy's young daughter. Afraid of losing his niece if social services learns of the name-switch, Cas & Claire move to a tiny town in the middle of nowhere. A town full of Winchesters, nosy ones. Things spiral out of control.”

My Notes:  This is an odd fic.  Like writing-wise, but also in Cas’ character.  That said, it’s a really compelling story, and all of the weirdness almost...works, in a way.  It’s honestly a lot more angst than I expected.  It’s also much more focused on Cas and Claire than Cas and Dean.  Still, I’ll give this one a B/B-.

“By ten a.m. Dean had seen his dream of expanding the hardware store dashed.By one, his baby had been impounded off the street.And by midnight, Dean’s personal space had been invaded by an angry, wet bookseller with hot blue eyes and an armful of natty first editions.There was also a cat.Maybe we should start at the beginning...”

My Notes:  This was distinctly a lastknownwriter fic.  I mean, you’ve got Dean and Cas’s relationship developing really quickly, them not being able to keep their hands off each other, adorable domesticity, and some great banter, and I loved all of it.  I will say that there were some time-jumpy bits that confused me a tiny bit, but I got sucked into the story nonetheless.  I’ll give this fic and A/A-.

"Dean's life is all work. He's either at the bar that's been left to him, serving drinks and cooking with his friend and partner Benny, or tinkering with prosthetic limbs. The rest of his life is one unhappy mess after another. Finding a stranger in the bathroom of his bar, after hours, doesn't necessarily improve anything."

My Notes: This fic is so different from anything I've read before, and I really liked it.  It's super angst heavy, though, so be aware of that going in.  Still, I thought everyone was pretty in character, and the fic was a crazy but interesting rollercoaster ride.  I'll give it an A-.
