My goal for today, now that Christmas baking is…60% complete, is to get chapter 5 finished and uploaded.
After months.
Because oh my god
I’ve missed writing and I actually have breathing space.
But not really.
The Means for Our Own Destruction: A Sabriel College AU
I’ve finally sorted it all out.
You can find the story here on Tumblr, on Fanfiction.net, and also on Archive of Our Own.
The Means for Our Own Destruction, Chapter 4: Jumelage
Title: The Means for Our Own Destruction
Pairing: Sabriel, some background Destiel, and quite a few lesser
touched upon pairings and flirtations. It’s college after all.
Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: PG-13/K+
Beta: tseecka (yay!)
Disclaimer: Still don’t own any of these characters, I can only claim
my characterization and my understandings of these folks. I can,
however, 100% verify that this is my writing. All of it. Yep.
Warning: Mild language, mild plot, mild references.
Summary: Sam begins a new, short day of class that becomes
unbearably long when he learns it’s a course he shares with Gabriel
Descieux and receives a piece of even worse news.
Author’s Notes: London is hot a humid and I’ve been working right
in the middle of it all, so I must apologize for the delays…again. I
should also take this time to say some thank yous.
First off, many thanks to andlatitude again for the encouragement and
for helping spark this story, for listening to me ramble off ideas and
scenes at stupid o’clock in the morning, for responding so amazingly,
and for all the inspiring art. Aside from that, she’s an indispensable
friend all round. I say the same to getthesaltnburn, tseecka, remivel,
swordcane, and anyone else I have inflicted with my enthusiasm and
derp with regards to this story. Thank you to rosemcphee and
praisethemoftiss for helping me expand my potential audience. Thank
you to everyone reading, reviewing, and favouriting this story. Thank
you for reading in the first place, for your reassuring and uplifting
words, and for your patience. Also, one final set of thank yous to
Colombia for all the coffee I’ve imbibed, England for all the cheeses
I’ve sustained myself with, and my grandparents for investing their
time and patience in me, and for helping me fix most of my computer
problems.
The Means for Our Own Destruction available HERE at Fanfiction.net and HERE at Archive of Our Own.
An added note of thanks here goes out to praisethemoftiss for getting me hooked up with an AO3 account and to rosemcphee for getting the message out that I could use one. You’re both marvelous people and I can’t thank you enough.
FINALLY! The Means for Our Own Destruction, Chapter 3: Connexion
Title: The Means for Our Own Destruction
Pairing: Sabriel, some background Destiel, and quite a few lesser touched upon pairings and flirtations. It’s college after all.
Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: I own none of the characters presented in this chapter, I merely chose them to be my puppets and have sort of gone a bit mad with them.
Warning: None. Well, the Destiel fluff could possibly require a warning…
Summary: Sam wants to make amends for ditching his friends and Castiel wants to explain a few things about his brother.
Author’s Notes: I do hate how great the periods between postings are but, unfortunately, there’s not much getting around it at present. When I started writing this little story I assumed it would be fairly short in spite of my hopes for it, but after the first 2 chapters hit 3,000+ words per…I started to realize that this could potentially be a fairly lengthy story. As of this writing, I have 14 full chapters outlined, so I’m estimating this little fic will end up being close to Big Bang length (or around 50,000 words for those not in the know).
The Means of Our Own Destruction, Chapter 2: Fraterniser
Title: The Means for Our Own Destruction
Pairing: Sabriel, some background Destiel, and quite a few lesser
touched upon pairings and flirtations. It’s college after all.
Fandom: Supernatural
Beta: None, because my writing time has been all over the place and this was overdue enough as it is.
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: None of these characters are mine really though some of the attributed personality traits and character developments are my doing entirely. Basically, they all originated from somewhere else, I just molded them and warped them to suit my own needs for my amusement and, hopefully, yours.
Warning: These kids can be foul mouthed little bleeps. Some coarse language and mild violence.
Summary: Alone at last Sam finds adjusting to the solo life not so solo and not nearly as relaxing as he’d hoped, especially not with campus dumbass Gabriel terrorizing all the res halls.
Author’s Notes: Oh Em Gee. I am SO incredibly sorry for the constant delays. Life has been tough and just keeps getting tougher.
Reblogging for those who missed it.

Success! The Means of Our Own Destruction is now available on Fanfiction.net!
Apologies to those who were experiencing difficulty reading it on tumblr. I hope this is of use and works out better for people.
Chapters will be posted weekly on Wednesdays, same time as today.
Another note on the AU
SORRY for the high volume of Destiel.
It IS a Sabriel centric fic but this is the preparation for the background stuff, etc. etc.
The level of Destiel here will not continue in future chapters.
The Sabriel will slowly increase but…they DO start out sort of hating each other. Fair warning.
I hope this does not upset too many people.
Trust me, later on down the line there will be fluff and angst and all sorts of loveliness to come.
