treefrogie84 Slightly more explanation for DW than for PF since I have more folks following me here that didn't follow me on tumblr.

spncoldesthits comes up with a theme. The contest is to write a (mostly) supernatural fic that gets the fewest hits/kudos/comments. There is no magic formula to win: MCD does you no better or worse than marshmallow cannibalism (ok, that one actually won last month, but)or the fluffest of destiel fluff. It's write a fic that fits the theme and post it. The point is NOT to write a shitty fic, but to write one that no one will read.
And then you sabotage your fellow players. Live blog their fics (what i'm doing right now); make art for them (happening later this week); podfic it, do whatever promos you can. This both subtracts points from your score AND every additional hit/comment/kudos adds to their score. At the end of the promo period, things are added up and whoever has the lowest score wins. The prize? Picking the theme for next month.
All that said, Let's do some liveblogging!
Anyway! first up is CaffinaShips' They Look at You Like They Don't Speak Your Language
[reads author's note] well, shit. I wasn't trying to make anyone the bad sort of miserable
I have comments, but that would be spoilers. But aww, good on Cas.
Remember to go show Caffina your love and appreciation by way kudos and comments

Music to an Angel is as logical and analytical as every part of humanity. Analysis of rhythm, patterns of sound, waves of sound, historical context, resonance of instruments, and so on. An Angel perceives the effects of sonic vibration on surrounding matter and believes they understand music more than a human ever could. Perhaps they do understand music more completely than people do.
Math is beautiful, dude. Complicated and obnoxious sometimes, but beautiful.
The easy lyrics and upbeat tempo were completely out of synch with the sudden utter loneliness pinning Castiel to the spot....and this is why music from the 60s is the WORST. They all do this.
