Gift Fic for bimosexual in spn_j2_xmas
Prompt: J2 AU set to the basic plotline of Ever After…cuz yes I am just that cool; or if unfamiliar with the movie any story in which one of the boys is the supposed wealthy/superior 'prince' type, and the other is the poor/inferior pauper but love conquers all and…what not)
Summary: An adaptation of an adaptation of an adaptation. Jared Padalecki contends with his stepfather, Lord Fredric Lehane, and tries to rescue the family business - but how will Prince Jensen change his life? AU
Part one of five - the next four parts should be posted over the next few weeks, and it should be complete by Valentine's Day.
Rating PG-13.
Pairing: Eventual Jared/Jensen
Disclaimers: Not mine, never happened, total AU, ideally transformative. Some lines in this chapter are taken directly from the script of Ever After. The title is from a line in "Ever Ever After" by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz.

( Ever ever after? It may only be a wish away )

And yes, I know that this is a pretty insane time to post an SPN fic. Show has just aired in half the country and is about to air in the other half, and I want to take some time to rant about the evil bitch(es) who did the one thing you do not do to anyone in fandom - namely, send links to their fannish activity, includng art or fic (whether it's rated G or NC-17)) to their family or RL friends - or (does it even need to be said?) to their offices.

Whoever did this? You are evil. Someone did this to me years ago and it still makes me ill to think about it, to remember how it felt to sit in my office and worry that I was going to be fired because the law firm I worked for suddenly knew I wrote fanfic. I was lucky - there were no negative consequences. But that's a one in a million chance and almost no other workplace would be so kind.

Have not yet seen Show. Had a long meeting tonight, and may not get to see it until the morning. Please do not spoil me! Thanks!
