Dragonfly has not been abandoned. I know it's been a terribly long time since I've posted and I felt I needed to put up a post to say that. I've recently had surgery in an effort to address some of my health issues. Dammit, when the hell did the warranty on my body run out? The surgery may help one of my issues some though the doctor said it might take a full year for the improvement to completely be seen. The secondary health issue I've found no solution to yet, but I am still on a hunt for a doctor to help. I suspect I will end up combining Eastern and Western medicine to find said improvement. With my surgery I have discovered just how much pain has been impacting my life. When you have access to good pain meds and don't feel it, wow, what a difference in being able to function, even if it is an illusory improvement. Pain management is being put on my to do list of doctors though. Anyhow, I've nto fallen off the face of the earth and neither has dragonfly. Look for more updates soon. I've put too much on hold because of feeling poorly. Doesn't appear anything will change, so I just have to suck it up and focus on the things I love such as writing. Thanks for your patience.

 Summary: A rough school, an angry gang, and violent retribution leave Dean broken.   Can his family find a way to bring him back from his dark world? Hurt/angst Dean and Sam. Heck, angsty everyone! Teenchester.

"Take it away, Caleb," Dean begged. "Make it all go away."

"I have to see to do that. You want me to see? Are you sure?" Caleb asked.

Dean nodded as he cried harder. He didn't want to be alone in his nightmare world any longer.

Don't own any rights to the Boys, songs, or Ridley James’ Brotherhood AU. For full disclaimer, see Chapter 1.

Rating: M. Warning. Some chapters have very mature themes of violence, torture and rape and attempted suicide. Almost all chapters have some bad language. Although I've attempted to avoid some of the more explicit details, sometimes it just can't be done and tell the tale.

 "Tried to die?" Dean asked furrowing his brow. How did someone try to die short of slitting their wrists?

A soft huff escaped Sam and he swallowed back the lump that had been there all too often recently. "The police made you give them a statement. You did. Then you just-just-just…" Sam had to stop, trying to gather himself. His voice was a rough whisper as he finished, "…gave up. They had to do CPR and everything. We thought…" Sam shook his head, battling back his tears. That was a memory he didn't want keep, a sight he never wanted to see again.

This is rated ‘M” folks. Some chapters have very mature themes of violence, torture and rape, bad words….

Hurrying to room two he found Jonas and Joshua sitting near the doorway, icepacks held to their respective injuries. Jonas pulled the pack way from his nose, raccoon like bruising already clearly developing around his eyes. Looking tired and annoyed, Joshua held an icepack under his chin, dark bruising clear. 

"He's still stable," Jonas reassured his friend, “but he hasn’t woken back up." 

Nodding, John went in to Dean's side, gripping Dean's hand and running his other hand over his son's face, brushing some errant locks off his son's forehead.

Dragonfly Video!!!

Sensue, bless her, has created a video of Breaking the Wings of Dragonflies.  I think she did a completely and utterly awesome job.
It is at the Dementor site she created.  Just like me, she loves reviews so if you like the video, please take the time to tell her so.  It is not streaming video so you will need to download it and it is 30 MB. 

It is rated M.  Is it work safe? ...probably, unless you've got a really strict code.  There is one scene that flashes that implies some naughtiness, (but they are clothed) and there is violence.

This link takes you to a page that makes you verify you're older than 18.  Then right click / save target as to download.

Raising awareness

  • Feb. 21st, 2009 at 3:42 PM

After some thought, I have decided I should use Dragonfly to help raise awareness of some of the issues brought up in Dragonfly.  While the story is more of a psychological study of the Winchesters, and the violence against them wasn't intended to be the focus, the violence is still that which spurs the events.

Since Dragonfly addresses two main issues, rape and gang violence, I've decided to provide links to charities that address these issues among others.  Since I know many of my readers are international, I've included a few from a few other English speaking countries.  If you are from a country not listed (and I know a few of you are) feel free to send me a site that is appropriate in your country.  I would prefer sites that let people donate small amounts as well as larger amounts, and sites that are for large and well known charities so there is less risk of charitable contributions not ending up where they are suppose to.  I also would prefer sites that do not have a religious affiliation.

The below sites are reputed to be good charities.  I am not part of any of these charities, and by all means, if you have a charity that you donate to that you prefer, pat yourself on the back and add an extra dollar/euro/yen/etc next time for Dragonfly.  

If anyone has heard anything negative about these charities, please let me know and I will do my best to investigate.

If you would, please email me (here or at skiaria@gmail.com) with the amount of any donations made in honor of Dragonfly and I'll try to keep a running tally and post it here.  I imagine there is a way to do it with them sending me totals, but I'm not that technologically savvy.  Lol.

DONATIONS TO DATE: $13

USA:
RAINN--Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network
  --I suggest the Buy RAINN gear as I believe you can donate just a dollar at a time rather than the larger donation requests.
Charity Guide
 --This covers a multitude of charitable things from teen suicide to global warming, and are volunteer projects and ideas.  Gang violence is also listed here.

Canada:
Kids Help Line

UK
NSPCC-National Soceity for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children
 -Donate online lets you give as little or as much as you want.

Through Unity/The foundation for Social Improvement
-Gang violence (national) and small chairty support

Australia

"Dean? He's-he's okay, isn't he?" Sam stammered, fearing Dean's health had taken a turn for the worse. Or the Dementors? Had they gotten to him? Why hadn’t his father called him?

 John didn't trust himself to speak and shook his head. His eldest was anything but okay.

Something in my connection with LJ is forcing double line feeds, I've now tried a 3rd party client and I lose all formatting so, fuck it.  I'm tired of trying to make it look pretty and do a cut, and all that crap.  I've spent two freaking days doing this and give up.  Sorry for the screwed up format but it's as good as it's going to get.

I have spent freaking hours try to get my post up for C23 in LJ.  I am getting double line feeds and large size text, and if I go without any format, I of course have to reformat all my italics and everything.  I'm waiting to hear back from LJ as to why the #$%% this has started up.  If I go with no fomat, then the cut doesn't work.  Oh, it'll cut and make a link but it also leaves all the freaking text there too.  If I paste in Rich Text and then disable auto format, it looks fine until I post and then the freaking double line feeds are back.  To say I am upset is the understatement of the day.  I am seriously seriously pissed off.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'll be glad to listen to them.  In the meantime, you can go to fanfiction.net and read C23.  my name is the same there so just search for author Skiaria.

Hi all.
Yes, it's taking me awhile to get this next chapter up.  I've had a lot of distractions and things going on to complicate my life and divert my focus.  The next chapter is done, but I am waiting on my beta to review it.  I sent it to her today.  I'm hoping she might get to it tomorrow.  So just letting you know the next chapter is almost ready for posting.

In case some of you haven't heard, Kim Manners, one of the producers of our beloved Supernatural passed a few days ago.  He was only 58.  http://www.reuters.com/article/entertainmentNews/idUSTRE50S0QT20090129

This is the address for Kripke and his writing staff.  I imagine any notes of sympathy for his family would likly reach them if you were to send them here.  The funeral is February 7.

"I-" Dean began and had to clear his throat to get the words out. "I want to see Caleb," Dean finished, his voice shaky and thick. He felt his heart pound in his chest. He didn’t want to see Caleb. Not really. He was terrified, but he couldn’t keep living like this.

Okay, so why DMNTR as the title on the previous post and this post?  Well not only is it part of the gang symbol, but it's the name of the website.  Sensue said I can go ahead and post it, so here it is!

Yep.  Still giddy!

The website is a work in progress.

I am giddy and bouncy and happy and OMG what an awesome awesome AWESOME Christas present from my friend!!  I'm getting my own webpage for fans of Dragonfly!  I just got to see the site (under construction) and it was just so really cool.  As soon as she gets a few more things done, I'll post the website.  What coolness!

A thin stream of blood poured down Jim's cheek, it’s origin less than an inch from his eye. Sam realized with a start the sound he had attributed to a car backfiring hadn’t been a car at all. It had been the report of a gun.

Fellow LJ Dragonfly readers,
Pardon the long delay.  Many things have been going on and most recently, I've been pretty damned sick.  I had hoped to have C21 up by now, but it's going to be another good week or so.  My apologies.  Do not fear that I've gotten bored or something with it.  Things have simply kept me distracted or I haven't felt up to par.  Patience.  I promise I won't make you wait any longer than I have to.
