J2 recs - Oblivious!Jared  
I just love oblivious!Jared and pining!Jensen. Please rec the best ones you know! I already know and love We Must Reinvent Love, which is the best example of this genre I can imagine. And My Heart Don't Beat the Way It Used To, also excellent and loved.

Any kind of moderately realistic AU (you know, no space pirates or time travel or werewolves) or real world, and hopefully with a happy (and NC-17) ending. I'll take cleaner ratings if it's really good though. And self-recs are great!

I don't have a rec, sorry, but I had to comment on your icon. It's from the Cat Tarot, right? I had that deck in high school and it's my all-time favorite Tarot deck! The artwork is amazing!

Breathing in the Space You've Come to Inhabit (http://annkiri.livejournal.com/210126.html) by [livejournal.com profile] annkiri is very well written and has some excellent pining!Jensen. It has a companion piece, too, from Jared's POV - A Breath Away From Where We Are (http://annkiri.livejournal.com/117177.html).

I just finished listening to Juice817's amazing audiobook of "Can't point the way to your heart" by Belyste. It's an AU and really cute and funny! Can't rec it enough :)

Summary: AU in the vein of movies like Hitch - Jensen's an unofficial advice guru, and Jared's his latest project. Except while Jensen's supposed to be helping Jared end up with the woman of his dreams, he falls for him instead.

I can't believe I missed this! I go through all posts to this site looking for new fics to read, then about ten minutes ago I sent in a post looking for either of the boys being totally oblivious and the other one pining away, I just can't believe I didn't see this in my inbox, I must have been really zoned out when I read it!

I wrote one of these a while ago. It's non-AU post-SPN J2. Parts run Adult thorugh NC-17. It was hosted on an non-LJ site but I recently re-posted it on LJ here (http://squeakysnow.livejournal.com/14956.html). It starts with "Gold Brick (http://squeakysnow.livejournal.com/14696.html)".
