Dear people who write J2,

I love your stories, I really do. I love when you use the entire roster of CW stars, past and present. (yes, some of those folks no longer work for the CW). But let us get some things straight. Mr. Tom Welling has green eyes. Not blue. Superman has blue eyes. Thomas has green eyes, and they are as pretty, if not more, than Jensen's. G-R-E-E-N. Stop making them blue!!

He's almost as tall as Jared; he is taller than Jensen, so much taller that it makes me think they're fudging when they give JA's height as 6'1". He's built more along the line of JP, but with real muscles, less gay porn and more just naturally hot as the sun. *koff*

I understand the need for a villain in most of your stories, but I think that it's becoming fanon in J2 that Thomas is a dick. Sorry, that's not true. Nearly every interview with his co-stars, or article about Thomas, mentions what a nice guy he is, genuinely a nice guy. There's a shit-ton of pics on line with Thomas and kids, and he always looks happy to be in the shot with them--you know, nice to his fans. He's the real deal. The very very *very* few stories I've read in which Thomas is not an abusive asshole bastard pick up on that and more importantly, give him credit for being smart as well as sweet.

I don't know, just feeling oddly protective about my Thomas and Clark lately. I just needed to get that out. I hate what folks do with Thomas, and hate how they waste him in fics. I'd like to read *something* where he figures as large as Christian Kane and gets decent treatment. (by the way, where's the Chris/David fic, fer cryin' out loud?
*deep breath*

Next time, I'm going to talk about what they do to Michael in these stories. You might want to step back from the screen when I do.

I actually have no problem seeing Jensen as an asshole, and I like him--like, a *LOT*.

Still, I don't think it's much of a stretch to make him one. And yes, I enjoy asshole Jensen fics, as long as he comes around eventually. Even so, in most of those kind of fics, it still feels Jensen to me, asshole or not. I feel the same way about Jared--I have no problem with him being a borderline asshole either. It's just--these folks who write asshole Thomas have never seen him in action. There's just nothing about him that makes it a viable characterization. And just making someone a douche because you need a douche...naw.

It pisses me off the same it pisses me off when folks write Jensen as a girl with balls. Why? There's nothing feminine about the guy. He's pretty, but he's not girly. *shrug* Maybe I'm just picky and crabby. *G*

Also, I wanna know what fic is the Asshole!Jensen fic?

No, I totally know what you mean.

Like I said, I actually can see Jensen being an asshole, so it doesn't bother me when it happens. Also, it really helps if they have a character, and aren't just some random, emotionless villain.

Just like Wes is my favourite character in Buffy/Angel, and my favourite flavour of him is stone cold bastard :)

Oh, also? I've gotten myself hooked on Smallville lately. Never watched it before, but in the past few months I've watched the entire series, and I LOVE what they did with Lex. He was just awesome.

Plus, I am so in love with Oli right now, I think I might explode. Like, I wouldn't quite leave Dean for him just yet, but I'd definitely have an affiar :)

And yeah, I hate it when peopl make Jensen a girl. You're right, it makes no sense. I have no idea what Tom's like outside of Smallville, but I do see Clarck as a bit of an ass at times, so maybe people are tapping into that? I don't know.

I don't remember what fic that was with asshole!Jensen, but if I can find it, I'll let you know.

Oh, hell yeah!

Smallville I've always had a love hate relationship with--I find I like it a lot now that Lex isn't there anymore. I could hardly stand how they fucked up his character from season to season. Lex was the best, the coolest, the hottest character they had and Clark and Lex together burned like fire! As for Olli. Well, you enjoy him. In fact, if you wanted to take him and hide him away some where just for yourself, I'd be behind that. *koff* Just sayin'....

Clark and Lex though--man they were fun to write some fucked up shit about. Folks say that SpN is the fandom of pain but SV, back in the day, kicked angst filled ASS.

Oh! No love for poor Mr. Queen, eh?

That's fine. All the more for me :P

I actually don't like Clark at all. Smallville has turned Superman upside down for me. I don't like Clark, and LOVE Lex and Lois.

It's a shame that people apparently bash TW so much in rps, because I like the actor, just not the character he plays. Although I think a lot of that had to do with Lana, and how epically lame she was. She totally dragged him down, and I was over that relationship even faster than I was over Buffy/Angel. Which was pretty damn fast.

I have a hard time slashing smallville, but I suppose I could see some Clark/Lex in an extremely wrong way. Heh, I actually had moments where I saw some Oli/Jimmy, where Oli was an ass, and just let Jimmy please him sexually because Jimmy fanboy'd him.

Anyway... http://elizah-jane.livejournal.com/47779.html

That's the fic I was talking about.

Thank you for the link!

I'm really sad that you don't like Clark! Though I understand when you say that Lana dragged him down. The Show sacrificed a lot of Clark's character to make that relationship seem workable. It was a shame, because it did neither actor any favors--they shared no chemistry whatsoever. I think the Clark/Lex relationship seemed more than possible, and for me it went through so many changes--it could be written any way, from sweet and shmoopy into the most non-con of non-con. In the very beginning, Lex was so taken with Clark, and eps like Asylum made that so obvious--to a Clexer like me, anyway! :)

Yeah...Ollie. The only fic I ever wrote with Oliver Queen, Lex kidnapped him, tortured him, brainwashed him and then killed him. *GGG* Good times....

That story ws *excellent*! I actually kind of liked that Tom!
