What The Fuck Is The "horse Manure Crisis Of 1894" And Why Was It Written On The Board In My Classroom

What the fuck is the "horse manure crisis of 1894" and why was it written on the board in my classroom earlier

my friend helped me make a playlist for a destiel fic I’m writing and can we talk about how perfect Don’t Deserve You by Plumb is

I don’t deserve your love

But you give it to me anyway

Can’t get enough

You’re everything I need

And when I walk away

You take off running and come right after me

The Italian Leak is Fake

12/2/20

When Despair aired on the 5th of November, Castiel’s confession to Dean felt like a victory for many fans after nearly twelve years of queerbaiting. The finale, however, left most people more than a little disappointed, ending a fifteen-year long run with only two passing remarks about the fan favourite character, and absolutely no mention of the declaration of love that had occurred only two episodes prior. When the Spanish dub of the episode aired - the title aptly changed to La Verdad (the truth) - fans were even more shocked to find that Dean reciprocated Castiel’s feelings, replying with “y yo a ti, Cas” (and I you, Cas) rather than the English versions “don’t do this”. Then, four days ago, the Italian dub was leaked.

The video seemed to show much the same as the Spanish version, with Cas’ love no longer unrequited. However, people were quick to question the validity of the video, with many seeing it as a way to make the fans - who were in the midst of protesting over the very real South American episode - look like conspiracy theorists. There was much debate over the clip, with many agreeing that although it was mostly likely a fake, it was very convincing.

A few hours ago, however, we finally got confirmation that the video was, in fact, fake. The account that posted it, @iotiamo, confessed that they created the video after Misha “threw the ‘rogue translator’ under the bus”, as they were angry because the fans should not have to fix the ending themselves. After a detailed explanation of how they did it, they ended with an apology to anyone who went to any trouble over debunking it, saying that they will “miss the fandom”.

One of the Italian translators has confirmed that work on translating season 15 of the show will begin around January 2021, unless it is delayed because of coronavirus.

Wattpad Fics

Ah, Wattpad, the place where I first started reading fanfiction. I feel like there is a certain vibe that you get from Wattpad that you can’t find anywhere else. I will warn people (since they don’t have a warnings function) that a lot of these fics CONTAIN POSSIBLY TRIGGERING CONTENT so if that may be an issue, you are welcome to ask me about specifics or you can just skip this one and read next week’s (writer Cas!).

Strings Attached by KittyHazelnut on Wattpad. (100 parts).

Description: Life sucks and then you die - preferably sooner rather than later. That's the mindset of Castiel Novak, the school punching bag. But one day, he finds a light at the end of his tunnel.

My Rating: 4 stars.

Notes: When I started this, I actually kind of hated it. By the end, though, I was ignoring any bad writing because I was so attached to the characters! It takes crack fics to a whole other level (read: Lucifer quoting the Bee Movie) but in the end I genuinely enjoyed it.

The Knock by TPmusic on Wattpad. (38 parts).

Description: Castiel Novak had a horrible past, filled with abuse and scars. He hadn't talked in years and was invisible in college. That all changed by a knock on his dorm room, revealing Sam Winchester. As he later on met Dean, his life turned upside down. 

My Rating: 4 stars.

Notes: When I first started this, I assumed that it was just like a lot of the other fics on here, but oh boy the plot twists. And it was also quite sweet.

Fallen by spn_destiel on Wattpad. (6 parts).

Description: After a witch hunt in southern Ohio, Dean can see Castiel's wings.

My Rating: 3 stars.

Notes: Perfectly fine, but pretty much just a wing kink fic. It was kind of cute.

36 Questions of Destiel by LaurenABlack on Wattpad. (37 parts).

Description: For a project, Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak, total strangers, are forced to honestly answer 36 questions. But the questions are prying, and the boys may leave knowing and feeling a lot more for each other than they originally intended.

My Rating: 2 stars.

Notes: Classic Wattpad Trauma always hits different, but ooh boy this was laden with angst. The plot was a good idea, and I love the references, but it was distractedly OOC.

What it Takes to Reach an Angel’s Wings by svnflowercas on Wattpad. (7 parts).

Description: "Vee nu nohno kee ah seh peh teh poh ah ma lah deh zod" Dean finished and with the last words Castiel's wings materialized.

My Rating: 2 stars.

Notes: This had almost no plot, and while that is sometimes okay and I appreciate the sweetness of the epilogue and some other parts, it was just fairly poorly written.

Sorry there aren’t as many as their usually are, but I hope this helps whoever asked for them! Wattpad isn’t my favourite platform for fanfiction, because it tends to be lower quality than other sites (also AO3 is just so much easier to use). I haven’t actually been on it in a while and then this morning I got a notification recommending a story I might like, titled “The Entire Bee Movie Script”. Maybe it knows me better than I thought.
