New Fic Alert
Hi! I recently got back into writing after a long gap and started posting a Destiel fic as a WIP.
The core idea is an Actors AU where Dean is a blockbuster superhero actor trying to break out of that image, and Castiel is an Oscar-winning actor from a complicated film family. They’re cast as lovers in a historical film about a revolution and a romance that doesn’t survive.
A lot of the story explores that space between performance and reality—what it means to “act” in love versus actually feeling it, especially when the cameras stop rolling. There’s also a parallel writer/director dynamic shaping the story behind the scenes.
Tone-wise, it’s a slow build, a bit introspective at the start, and leans into emotional tension rather than immediate drama.
I’ve just posted Chapter 1 and would genuinely appreciate any feedback—especially on whether the character dynamics and setup are landing.
