Stuck In The Middle With You

Where's the other comma-loving nonny? You should get on this one, as well! It's missing the occasional apostrophe, too.

I like crackfic, I really do, but it frustrates me to no end when crackfic comes about at the cost of making the characters stupid. I love fic where Sam hits Dean and Castiel with a cluehammer, but in this story they are thrust so deep into their own asses for no good reason other than to give Sam and Gabriel banter and the chance to complain about them all the time, and as someone who loves Dean and Castiel, I find this characterization more hurtful than funny. I'm sure the author didn't mean it that way, and am aware this is just my own chapped-assness shining through, but there it is.

I like outsider POV fics, but only when that POV enables interesting observations on the characters being observed, and this... doesn't.
