no, because I realised why I still don't like J2 fic. Aside from the slash, you can't really get a handle on characterisation. We assume Jared and Jensen are a certain way, have certain characteristics, based on their antics at Cons etc, BUT ... its not necessarily true.
I just... it still squicks me writing (and then reading) about real people and the suppositions about them and reading a gen version did not allay that squick, it if anything highlighted it for me.
