Title: trading all the wasted times
Author: _mournthewicked
Artist: daggomus_prime
Pairing: Jared/Misha (mentions of Jensen/Danneel)
Rating: Adult.
Word Count: ~ 36,000
Warnings: Tons of schmoop, meddling best friends, and one instance of an unorthodox, yet practical use of yoga pants.
Disclaimer: Look up fiction in the dictionary. You won’t find a picture of this story, but the definition of the word ‘fiction’, which this is.

Summary: Jared Padalecki could easily categorize his life by movie genre. His teen years were the offbeat comedy that found him floundering through a gay crisis and crushing on his straight best friend, followed by the indie drama that started with said friend moving away after graduation. His ensuing existential crisis culminated in him dropping out of college and moving out to L.A. on a whim. He wasn't expecting to cross paths with Jensen again, but that’s what sends his life veering into romantic comedy territory. Because it’s not Jensen that he wants anymore. It’s Misha, Jensen's eccentric and gorgeous yoga instructor roommate, that just might end up being Jared’s happy ending.

Notes: Here's my humble offering for sassy_minibang. I got bit by the mishalecki bug bad, and this is what came of it. I owe my undying affection to a few people, without whom this story wouldn't exist. Many thanks to obstinatrix for talking me into rolling with this idea in the first place, to akadougal and tiptoe39 for being the best cheerleaders a girl could ask for, to kamikaze_redux for fixing all my mistakes, and to gembat for her last minute help.

And now, for the art. I was lucky enough to get paired with the amazingly talented daggomus_prime. I've been a fan of hers for so long, and to have her create some stunning art for my story is a huge honor. She was so wonderful to work with, and I hope that I get to do so again soon! Don't forget to tell her how incredible she is! ♥
