How easy to forget that fandom isn't like real life

I won't go into the reasons, but a colleague needed a photograph of me. It had to be about a year old so whipping out a digital camera wasn't an option for this purpose. I'm not a big fan of being photographed, so I knew this would be a challenge. Finally, I told her she'd have to pick one of my convention photos and crop it. This at least has the advantage that they're professional shoots, so they're good quality pics, not snapshots.

So, today, I took my con album along for her to pick a photograph. I told her it was my convention pics, though admittedly without explaining what that means. But the album has photoshoots, official pics and autographed pics, so I kinda thought it'd be obvious.

When she returned the book to me, she told me I had a very good looking family! OMG, I wish!

WIP Fic: Hour of Need (2/6)

Title: Hour of Need
Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: Mature
Pairing(s): Anna/Castiel, Haley Collins/Kat
Genre: AU
Warning(s): None for this chapter. The story as a whole contains some stuff which isn't usually warned for, but which squicks me out, so (highlight to reveal) fair warning - this story involves pregnancy and childbirth. And also zombies :)

Summary: Lucifer has his chosen vessel and is stronger than ever. Dean fights on with his small band of allies, but it seems there is little hope. In a desperate attempt to help him, Castiel enlists Anna to raise John Winchester from the dead. Her success has consequences none of them could have predicted. Sequel to When The World Is Burning.

Notes: This is the second story of three. The way the trilogy is structured is not exactly chronological: When The World Is Burning comes first, then stories two and three start in the same place. Story two, Hour of Need follows some minor characters, with the Winchesters in lesser roles. Story three takes place in parallel to this one and will follow the Winchesters more closely.
