Fic!

[hope]

The D Word
Supernatural/The L Word. Genderswap; NC-17 (femslash); Dean/OFC, Dean/Shane. 11,000+ words.
It’s a crossover, but I guarantee it’ll still make sense even if you haven’t seen The L Word. It’s just that those female characters aren’t original, ok?

Feedback would be awesome.

Alright. This story is totally in the wake of the realisation that Dean dresses like a butch dyke. Which was followed by the thought that hey, wouldn’t it be fun to write a bit of crack fic where Dean has lots of lesbian sex? That’s be kinda cool. Meanwhile, 11,000 words later...

Anyway, I didn’t initially intend it to be a major crossover, just wanted to chuck in a character or two for fun. But then it turned out that the whole thing would sit better within an existing ‘verse, so there you go. I still reckon it’s fine if you haven’t seen any of The L Word (hell, I’ve only seen most of season 1); I think another motivation for me crossing it over was that I don’t feel confident writing original female characters.

At any rate, this is Shane. Absolutely no apologies for pairing her with Dean.

Oh, and yeah. I took major liberties with The Planet. No apologies there, either (if Dean can turn into a girl, The Planet can totally turn into a bar-cafe hybrid).


This was pretty damn fun to write, and to try my hand at the femslash side of things. I felt a degree of wariness about posting this story, both because it’s the most explicit thing I’ve written, and because I think there’s a degree more intimacy between author and text when you’re a woman writing femslash, without that removal when you’re writing about something you have absolutely no part in (i.e. male/male sex). I feel a bit vulnerable, but on the flipside of that coin, more confident than I do when posting m/m stuff.

Also made me realise that the reason I don’t generally go for femslash when reading fanfiction isn’t because I don’t get any pleasure from femslash, but because I am yet to find a female character that I want to read about.

In terms of gendered pronouns, that was fun. No really, it was. Keeping Dean a ‘he’ made it so much easier to avoid those name-substitutes I love so much. And I don’t think that was incorrect, keeping Dean a ‘he’. I think my personal beliefs in this area were pretty obvious in the story and its language: gender isn’t biological.
