Summary: When single dad Jared Padalecki is recruited under desperate circumstances to become the “normal” face of a house full of misfits (including a vampire, a voodoo priestess, a man who has modified his body to look like a jungle cat, and an all-too-naked Misha Collins) he unwittingly enters a world where magic exists. He thinks his greatest problem is figuring out his surprising attraction to Jensen “Totally Not a Warlock” Ackles, but when his suddenly super-powered six-year-old daughter goes missing, he needs to learn to trust his newfound family to get her back before anyone else is harmed.

OMG SOOOOO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!squeeeeeeeeee it's done and I can roll in this post and wrap myself around in schmoopiness when you clip and pull with your brilliant oneliners the strings to my heart! And the art is SOOOOOO GOOD! Reliand is A STAR!

[fiercelynormal.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on getting your first big bang done under such adverse conditions (*kicks LJ*). I'm so proud of you and wish you and Log and I could toast this masterpiece with some apple vodka and club sandwiches right now!

I cannot describe to you how excited I am to read this. The summary, the art, the fact that all adult vaginae are keeping their distance from the boys - all of these things have me all aflutter with antici......pation.

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Oh you and your vaginae! :P

[multiversum-4.livejournal.com]

Now, this is an unusual story line! Intrigued!

Gonna go and diving in :-)

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Awesome, hope you like it! :D

[wingdancer.livejournal.com]

I LOVED this squeeeee! Your cast of characters were wonderful; quirky and funny and ridiculous and loving and loveable and..... lol, I want to be a part of that family! Congratulations my darling, your story was written so well and I adored every minute of it. <333

[moviechicka.livejournal.com]

Yay! I hope livejournal holds up long enough so I can read it this afternoon.

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Wooooo, awesome! :D

If LJ craps out on you let me know!

[rozabellalove.livejournal.com]

Taking the PDF and running away with it! :D

*hugs*

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Hope you like it! :D

[sm0kingbunny.livejournal.com]

snatching the pdf for later reading. Sounds really interesting :)

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Great, hope you enjoy it! <3

[mangacat201.livejournal.com]

LOL... that was a FUN ride. I liked the slow reveal and Jared being clueless and all of them being abnormally weird and weirdly normal. LOL Especially Tom... Yeah, a really fun ride! And fantastic art too!

"abnormally weird and weirdly normal"---> I love that! LOL, perfect description.

Thanks so much for reading and commenting! :D

[mangacat201.livejournal.com]

Right? I'm quite proud of that myself *lol* I think it very fitting.

[pinkwithoutplot.livejournal.com]

Weeeee! You did it! This was just so lovely. Cute and sad and hot and funny. I got really sucked in. Loved Jared as a daddy (I'll have his bbs any day of the week *nods*) and loved the sense of family. I would totally live in that house. Great, great job bb and you may have made me shed a tear on the bus!

Beautiful artwork as well :) x

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

WOOT! I'm glad you managed to finish it *shakes fist at LJ and the russian government*

I'm so happy you liked it! This was a bit of a labor of love, but I'm happy with it in the end. And YES Reliand is amazing, so go give her some love for her art <3

[morgentau.livejournal.com]

Is this crack!fic? Did someone actually hear my prayers and wrote BB length J²!crack? Can I worship you?

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Crack and schmoop and porn. That work for ya? :P

[morgentau.livejournal.com]

That is basically the unholy trinity! :-D *mems for later*

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Hee, enjoy! :D

[morgentau.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :-D

[reliand.livejournal.com]

OMG BB!!! I CAN FINALLY SEE IT AND REREAD IT AND BASK IN THE GLORIOUSNESS is that a word? OF HOW AMAZING THIS STORY IS!!!!

I want to snuggle this and pat your head and give you so many compliments about how much I love this...but you already know that! I will tell you again and again, however, until I am blue in the face. I can not begin to express how lucky I am to have picked your story out of the countless ones that were up for grabs.

Can't wait to read it with the additional scenes \o/

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT! I was so bummed that the LJ fuckery was keeping you locked out, so I'm so happy you are in and able to see your FUCKING ADORABLE DOG DIVIDERS OMG. :DDDDDDDDDDDD

I love you to bits and pieces, but you already know that so I'll just sit over here mentally groping you and go look at your pretty, pretty art again.

[tan-kat.livejournal.com]

I really enjoyed this fic ... the artwork was lovely. I'm glad that there was a happy ending. :-D

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for reading, and YES the art work is fantastic <3

[twasadark.livejournal.com]

LOL, what a fun story! I especially liked Chad's idea about tattooing ads on people's foreheads. So wacky and endearing at the same time.

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

YAY! So glad you enjoyed it! Wacky and endearing is what I was going for so thanks for that LOL

Thanks so much for reading <3

[ambrosia4all.livejournal.com]

Congrats! ☆ Your fic is recced here (http://sawedoff-recs.livejournal.com/140500.html) at sawedoff_recs.

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Awesome! Thanks so much <3

[bonspiel.livejournal.com]

I read this on an e-reader and am finally coming back to leave feedback - I really enjoyed this a lot. Thanks.

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

So glad you enjoyed it and thanks so much for coming back and leaving a comment! <3

[enablelove.livejournal.com]

This was a really interesting and fun read :)

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

So glad you liked it! Thanks so much for reading <3

[indegoprincess.livejournal.com]

LOVED it. I need more!

[morgandawn.livejournal.com]

Hello! I am slowly catching up on my Big Bang reading and was wondering if you could re-upload the PDF with the art? And I'd love the sound track as well if that is doable. Thank you!

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Egad, all the links are broken now, right? I didn't upload them, so let me talk to my artist and see what she can do! In the meantime, the fic is on AO3 and you can DL a PDF there.

Thanks! <3

[doneitall.livejournal.com]

This was so lovely to read, and it's hot parts were much appreciated. And I loved Kat's name, but it's spelled wrong. It's Catherine (my name), just sayin'. You don't even want to know the war I'm waging against Catherine's with a K. I really loved Chris in this he is just plain awesome. And Misha. . . I don't know what to say. This was a perfect mix of angst, love, and hurt/comfort. It was beautiful.

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Haha, you'll have to fight it out with my best friend Kat(herine) because technically Kat was named for her :P

Glad you enjoyed, bb! I have a soft spot for this one since it was first BB

[saltandbyrne.livejournal.com]

OK so I'm also going to flail over here for a while.

The schmoopy mcschmoopface in me wants to just die over the cuteness and the hilarity and the deft ensemble cast.

The red-blooded, porn-loving girl in me wants to freak out about how goddamn hot this was. This line: “Jared, I want you to fuck me as hard as you can and then when your come is dripping down my thighs I want you to roll me over and use it as lube to fuck me again.” I want to build some sort of shelter out of it and live inside it for the rest of my life (some sort of sex-yurt? A jizz-teepee?). My god.

But the most dominant, native New Yorker part of me wants to scream: QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENS!!!!!!! I never thought, in all my days, I would see the boulevard of death AND Roscoe name-dropped in a fic. That pretty much made me the happiest person ever. Thank you!! <3

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for the sweet words! This was my first BB (and longfic) and I was/am super proud of it, but most people didn't even see it because it was posted during the Great Livejournal Blackout lol. So any time people go back and read it and enjoy it makes me super happy :D

LMAO, I live in Astoria, so I was totally being lazy by setting it in New York! Bwhaha, anyone that gets the Roscoe reference is A+++ in my book :P

<333

p.s. I already filled two timestamps to this in my comment meme, so check them out!

[saltandbyrne.livejournal.com]

You live in my hood!!!!! Man, the porn-fu is fucking strong up in here.
