I'm forever disappointed that the 13th Doctor never had the joke of calling herself John Smith while under cover, just for everyone to look at her real confused

Two things; Have you read 'Down to Agincourt'? and You know how you tried giving Rumbelle a short cut to their happy ending by making a small canonical change early in their story? What change would you make for Destiel to get their happy ending?

I have not read Down to Agincourt. Should it go on my to-read list? Author/link?

And the right trouser of time to give Dean and Cas a clear path to a happily ever after, together? I... god! Lemme think.

I mean, Belle's and Rumple's jumping off point offered itself: change things just enough that when Rumple panics, thinking Belle can't possibly love him, he can't actually drive her away before they can work it through. So, I went with, "His price was her hand in marriage." It had to be a twist on the choices they made in Skin Deep—one that brought their conflict(s) to a head much, much sooner than a network TV show could possibly allow for (short of wrapping their storyline), right? Their first story, their origin story and the wider first season, has all the tools I need, because Rumple is the primary antagonist of the piece as well as a romantic lead in this particular plot thread. If Rumple chills his tits during a season one equivalent timeline, and finds his family happy place before he's pushed Regina too far—finds and believes in Belle's love, finds Bae before it's too late, finds peace of any kind and reaches the point where he's unwilling to risk losing it by meddling further with everyone else or seeking more power—none of the chaos he later unleashes ever needs to happen. It stops the dominoes falling if Rumple just does nothing. He's his own worst enemy, quite literally.

Two Things;Have You Read 'Down To Agincourt'?andYou Know How You Tried Giving Rumbelle A Short Cut To

That's A Bed of Thorns, and Broken Wheel, and probably the other little pieces I wrote as well. I don't think I could do the same sort of handwave to Supernatural's storyline without actually dooming their entire world in the knock-on effects. Could I? No single choice they make would prevent the apocalypse showdown on its own, and if the apocalypse showdown happens, the consequences keep on hitting and hitting until the finish line. They're reacting rather than initiating. And their hands are so much more tied by the narrative than the Once Upon a Time characters. Their free will really... isn't... until they've dealt with Chuck once and for all. Maybe not even then. Maybe if they figured out way early on that writer-Chuck was God there'd be a way to keep a lid on everything? Gah! My brain just imploded trying to noodle it through!

Two Things;Have You Read 'Down To Agincourt'?andYou Know How You Tried Giving Rumbelle A Short Cut To

Nope. No, I'd have to go with a Major Storyline Change Type AU or a Different Universe Setting AU to pull off a shortcut romance with happy ending for Cas and Dean. There'd have to be less of a cosmic threat, or the threat be easier to contain, so they had time for themselves. Dean would have to be sure Sam was safe, at the very least, before he'd let himself have a shot at love. And at the same time, the Dean-Cas relationship still needs to be forged in fire and trust and loss and differences - or some plausible plot-substitute/equivalent - to throw the same 'shippy sparks.

Tragic breaking news. The fic you thought you'd done quite a bit of thinking of, has less completed thinking on the google doc than you'd expected.

Can you remember the first femmeslash fanfiction you ever read or heard about back in the day?

Yes! WIth a bit of brain-scraping, yes I can. Both must've been around 1989/1990. Sadly, I don't remember the titles or the authors.

One was Blake's 7 pairing Cally with Jenna, sort of unrequited love/very requited smut. Not quite PWP, but not deep into the plotty side of B7 either. Not particularly explicit by today's AO3 rating standards, but properly raunchy space ladies doing ladies in space.

Can You Remember The First Femmeslash Fanfiction You Ever Read Or Heard About Back In The Day?

The other was Doctor Who - Ace and Karra from Survival, with flashbacks to Ace's friend who was burned in the racially-aggravated arson attack (was her name Manisha?) as a framing device. That one was gen- or teen- rated (or would be now - all slash was treated as risque and labelled as adult back then), but had lots of intense teen feels and self-discovery going on.

Can You Remember The First Femmeslash Fanfiction You Ever Read Or Heard About Back In The Day?

What I don't remember is where I found them. In print, because everything was at that time. A B7 newsletter for the Cally/Jenna, I'd guess, but I honestly don't remember anything 'shippy at all from a Doctor Who fanzine pre-internet-era.

Very little Doctor Who fanfiction of any kind came my way until the late 90s, well into the Wilderness Years and the New Adventures/Missing Adventures/EDAs, and what little fic there was never focused on character stuff before those novels came along. Lots of Ice Warrior worldbuilding nerdery and endless political Daleks, and nearly exclusively male writers in the zines I had access to - very different from my experience of Star Trek and Blake's 7 fanfiction. So that 'shippy DW piece I remember might've been something a friend/penpal wrote and shared?? Reading room at a con?

So I encountered femmeslash young, but then it was actually quite a while before I encountered any more. Maybe Buffy the Vampire Slayer's early years, my first couple of years online? Before Willow/Tara, definitely.
