Non-AU, plotty J2 recs

[mesodontask.livejournal.com]

Hey, I've been having some trouble finding some good, long, plotty non-AU J2 fics, so I'm asking you guys for some help. Longer stories preferred, any rating is fine, and any background pairings are fine, so long as J2 is the focus. A bit of angst is fine, but I'd prefer an overall happy story. 

1) I'd love some slow building romance fics between Jensen and Jared, with a good, long plot that stays interesting.

2) I'd also love some stories similar to The Play Nice Proviso by qblackheart, where they start of disliking each other before realising that they suit each other, and start getting along.

I know this is a really general ask, but most others seem to be too specific for what I'm looking for.

Thanks!

(Sorry for any mistakes, it's my first time posting, and I've been off LJ for a while)

There are a ton of great fics rec'd at this post: http://spnstoryfinders.livejournal.com/7088475.html, plus a few really great links to some lists of recs and memories and such. I've got this post bookmarked and I've been working through the fics I haven't read!

I've got a list of the best J2 fics I could find out there, on my Delicious page. They're all long and plotty, some angsty, more often than not funny, and they all have happy endings, 'cause I'm a hopeless romantic like that. *giggles* Here you go:

80% of them are non-AU, and are tagged likewise.

Enjoy!
