Welcome to Cazadore, Texas

Three things right quick:

1. We've been getting slammed lately with anonymous spam comments, most of it--to put it delicately--not commensurate with the nature of this AU. LJ's spam filter has caught everything, so far as I know, but it's still a shock and a pain to come over and have dozens, if not hundreds, of spam comments to clear out. As a result, I've had to turn off anonymous commenting for this comm. I realize a number of our readers don't have LJ accounts and/or may not feel comfortable leaving comments under their LJ or OpenID name, which is why we've left anonymous commenting on this long. But I'm hoping that the bots will move on after a few months, which would allow us to reopen for the genuine nonnies out there.

2. Speaking of anonymous comments, one of the recent genuine ones brought up something we should address more generally. If you're interested in writing fanfic or drawing fanart for this AU, first, know that we're flattered and honored that you like our work so much! But we do ask that you request permission first, and before we can grant that permission, we need to know both who you are and what you have in mind. You're welcome to PM either of us here or on FF.n, or you can contact jennytork on AO3.

3. Re: the new LJ TOS: We ain't goin' nowheres. If something happens to LJ or to the comm, however, we have backups of everything and will find a way to put the word out if/when we have to move to a different site.

We're not done with this AU quite yet! We're just both insanely busy and thus can't promise when we'll get back to any of the stories in our WIP pile. Thank you, though, for your kind support over the years, and we hope to see y'all around soon.

Metadata is in the master post.

Today is jennytork's birthday! And when I asked what kind of fic she wanted, she said, "Different Roads. Surprise me." :D So I pulled this unfinished piece out of the WIP file and finished it for her. :) There are slight spoilers for Season 7, but nothing major. (Incidentally, in case you missed it, check out her latest solo entry to the series, Delighting in Your Company, in which Kali has a grand idea that backfires spectacularly.)

Summary: Ah, spring, when young Winchesters lightly turn to thoughts of babies-in-progress, and a promising young reporter gets the scoop of a lifetime from the FBI's deputy director. In the topsy-turvy world of Cazadore, will anything turn out to be normal?

( Perspectives Part 1 )

Slow process, sez I? HA. Wasn't expecting to have today off. So all the currently posted stories are now available as PDFs; links are in the series master post.

Hey, y'all, we've just gotten a request for downloadable files of the stories in this AU. We're all fine with it, for private use only... but both En and I are both sick and busy at the moment (Pat's just plain busy), and Big Bang season approacheth, so it might be well into June before I'd be able to get all the ducks in a row to do all 29 conversions myself.
SO
Would any of our faithful readers be willing and able to tackle the conversions for us? We'd be most grateful. :)

Picks up immediately after More Things in Heaven and Earth.

Summary: The angels' endgame is afoot. Will Cazadore's finest prevail, or will twisted destiny gain the upper hand at last?

Het alert, for the gen-only crowd....

Summary: John Winchester was once told that what was coming after his boys would eventually break into Cazadore, but that his boys would be ready. It's broken in -- are they ready?
