Notes: Never thought I'd write a high school AU, but here it is! It took some research, and the schools and programs mentioned are pretty much the real deal. It's also filling my school prompt for fanfic100 (table here). Thanks to dugindeep and itskaylie, who encouraged me when I wasn't so sure about this. Thanks to blisfulievil and dugindeep for taking the time to do incredible (multiple) beta jobs. And, last but not least, thanks to my artist, narcotic_doll, who hooked me up with the art I needed! :)

Random: I snagged the little weather graphic from Waterville High's site (if I remember correctly). I looked the school up and saw that right after I'd written emo!Jensen in the car with his dad, and it made me giggle.

Fanmix: narcotic_doll suggested putting together a fanmix, and here's what we came up with!

Hey hon,

Already told you that I love this story, but I was wondering if you knew the music behind the trailer? I feel like I really should know where it's from.

[timehasa-way.livejournal.com]

I feel like an idiot, because I feel like I should know this. But if I knew, I totally forgot. My brain is broken these days with RL drama. You should ask narcotic_doll!
