oh dear..ramble du jour
SpN really likes the non-con/hooker fic, hunh? And why do so many people make Jensen (the RPS character) into a damaged little monkey? Does he ping you like that? It's so weird, I don't get that at all. I see him being sort of sensitive under all that dickiness, but not delicate. Or romantic. Though I guess I do the same thing with Lex don't I, and lots of folks probably see that as OOC. To me though, Lex *is* delicate. He's like this huge balancing act, a giant teetering stack of behaviors and justifications and lies that let him survive. I absolutely believe that he believes he's doing the right thing, that he's the hero, and other people see him as the villain because they have no vision. Poor little thing...now there's a woobie for you.
I love you Lex Luthor--I want to bear your children!
*whispers* also, I think I'm back for good now...

oh I agree! Everyone has a different way of seeing things, and if I totally disagree, I just don't click again. I can't deal with a weepy girly Dean or Jensen, for that matter, a weepy girly any guy. But the different takes I enjoy. If everyone wrote them exactly the same it would be boring as hell.
So when I say Lex is delicate, I don't mean feminine, or fragile as such...brittle is more what I mean. To me, every movement he makes is that of a man balancing on the edge of some great height. When you watch Lex, he never makes a move that doesn't have a meaning. If he's not protecting himself, or someone else, he's very very still and contained, more so as the seasons go by. At least, that's what I project on him, and that's what I write.
Fanfic--it's like a window into our own psyches, lol!
