Title: Excerpts From Carver Edlund's Magnum Opus
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing: Dean/Cas
Summary: ""C'mon, Cas, it's like we're Mulder and Scully, this is totally X-Files," he says expansively, waving a hand around. It makes his tie flap and momentarily obscure the new and distracting belt buckle that just says "LUCKY" in huge, embarrassing reflective script in the early morning light. Castiel just stares blankly at him.
"I don't know what that means," Cas replies. Dean sighs and rubs the bridge of his nose under the bright yellow sunglasses."
Length: 27,000 wordsish.
Warnings: Gore, kids, questionable science, THE ONE AU TO RULE THEM ALL.
Notes: Okay. This requires a lot of notes. A little over ten months ago, I sent the first two paragraphs of this to
rageprufrock being like "HA HA WOULDN'T IT BE FUNNY TO HAVE A BONES AU OF SUPERNATURAL WHERE THEY WORK IN A LAB AND DEAN IS A SEXY FBI AGENT AND CAS IS A SOCIALLY-AWKWARD FORENSIC ANTHROPOLOGIST? AND CHUCK WRITES GENDERFUCK FANFIC BOOKS ABOUT THEM." And then slowly but not really surely, I wrote this, which is also responsible for the birth of the nickname "wheatgoogler" because fuck everyone, I like to pretend to be factually accurate. But thanks and apologies to
rageprufrock (who stayed up late to talk about Jack),
merelyn (who still ate Chinese with me, even after I talked about dismembering for a lot longer than I should have),
leupagus (who also had to listen about dismembering, but while we were watching David Attenborough) and for
mklutz (who had srs bsnss FBI discussions with me).
( It is entirely implausible that there is some sort of supernatural element at the root of this case, Cas says stubbornly. )PART TWO.
