So my dear flisties, does anyone have the time and inclination to beta my reversebang fic? It's just under 5k of mostly gen Sam and Dean. the summary goes:
Dean meets up with twelve year old Sam in a wood, where he finds himself in the middle of a hunt gone wrong. But everything is not as it seems…

I say mostly gen because it currently has a Sam Dean kiss (which I'm not sure about leaving in and would take advice on!). I'd need it back before Thursday next (30th Jan).

Jared thanks you in advance with his best hair toss.

My husband likes your gif.... "THAT'S hilarious!"

I see you have a beta. I was calling to volunteer too -- but I am anti-kiss. *RUNS*

Maybe it would be good to get two viewpoints then! Do I have an email for you? PM me...

Looks like you already have betas, but just wanted to weigh in on the kiss...if it ADDS something to the emotion, leave it in. If it just reinforces what's there, take it out.

I am always taking out meaningless sex scenes when I beta--this is the classic scenario: the two characters in a story had already been through hell and back for each other, said "i love you" at sunset, and the music has swirled around them and then...

...then they have slot a slot b kind of mechanical sex that adds nothing to the emotions already experienced.

Eh. TAKE IT OUT, I say. Better left to the imagination.

As far as wincest goes, it's almost always best left in the yearning UST stage if it's just gonna be a kiss and not some kind of real plot element.

Just IMO, of course! And not relevant to your actual story, of course, because I haven't read it. :)
