Author's Summary: Just some cuddling after a round of taking Jensen apart.
Relationships: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins, Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins/Danneel Harris/Vicki Vantoch
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Danneel Harris, Vicki Vantoch
Author’s Tags: established relationships - Freeform, Love, Polyamory, D/s, Aftercare, No Smut, Fluff, Slice of Life, Dom!Misha, dom!danneel, Dom!Vicki, sub!Jensen
Favorite Line: It still floors him sometimes, how Jensen does it. How he trusts them – all three of them – this much. How he goes so completely under. Misha contemplates it while he gives himself a perfunctory once over before throwing the towel to the side when he’s done. The second he lies back down, Jensen clings to him again and Misha obligingly wraps his arms around him.
Mod Comment: This polyamorous aftercare ficlet is achingly sweet and everything you could possibly ever want in a post-scene scenario. The love and trust between the foursome shines through in every beautifully crafted sentence, and will leave you with the most relaxed and blissful feeling -- despite not wanting it to ever end. Our hearts are full, our minds are serene, and our tummy-butterflies are fluttery with joy. *le sigh*

Author’s Summary: Kissing Misha was like dancing in a hurricane. It lifted you up, spun you around, and deposited you out the other side with no real memory of exactly what had happened, leaving you lightheaded and dizzy with only the vaguest sense that you had been hit by a force of nature.
Relationship: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Rob Benedict, Sebastian Roché, Osric Chau, Mentions of Vicki Vantoch and Danneel Harris
Author’s Tags: Cockles, Jus in Bello Convention, Fiumicino Airport in Rome, Jensen is Jealous, Misha is Bendy, Light Dom/sub, Praise Kink, There is Beer, Top Misha, Bottom Jensen, Anal Fingering, Anal Sex, Dom Misha, Sub Jensen
First Line: Jensen sat gazing out the row of large picture windows that made up the feature wall at Le Anfore Lounge at Fiumicino Airport in Rome. He watched as a plethora of different boats drifted and paddled and sped past, making a mental note to take the C&D out for a cruise sometime soon. If he ever found the time that was.
Mod Comment: BrielleSPN’s style is unmistakable, visceral and rambunctious. When you open one of her works you know you’re in for a fun ride, and this one epitomizes the way she’ll engage all your senses. For the smut epicurean this will not leave you wanting, but this author will also treat you to a richly developed sense of these characters that will stay with you long after you laugh and commiserate with Jensen and close the tab.
Author's Summary: This is a story of Misha and Jensen. It's told through snapshots of pivotal moments beginning that fateful day on set in 2008, and traverses milestones in their eight year dance of friendship, partnership, struggles and joys, to see how they arrived where they are today.
Though threaded together, each chapter could also stand alone. They are intended as emotional polaroids capturing conversations and experiences, explored via alternating POV's depending on whom we felt would be best to tell each occasion through. Beginning with first meeting, the story moves through crushes, declarations, fights and reconciliations, all within a polyamorous framework. There isn't a large cast of characters because this is all about Jensen and Misha, and their entirely unique choreography. Vicki and Danneel feature only in the background.
One author writes Jensen, the other Misha.
Relationships: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins, Misha Collins/Vicki Vantoch, Jensen Ackles/Danneel Harris
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Vicki Vantoch, Danneel Harris, Jason Manns
Author's Tags: Cockles, Cockles Big Bang 2016, Angst, Fluff, Smut, A shit-ton more angst, Polyamory, POV Alternating, airplane toilet sex, Dom/sub Undertones, Dom/sub imagery, Schmoop, Comedy, did we mention the angst though, First Time, Break up theory, Embedded playlist, Dom Misha, Sub Jensen, Top Misha Collins, Bottom Jensen Ackles
Author’s First Line: If he hadn’t been so nervous he probably would have taken more notice of the stillness, the hush of a universally held breath as an invisible curtain rose.
Mod Comment: When Serenhawk and BrielleSPN combine their talents to coauthor a story, you know you’re strapping in for an angsty ride with a generous helping of sweet sizzle. This labour of love doesn’t disappoint. The vignette portrayal of Jensen and Misha’s story is well-suited to the authors’ intricate style, and you’ll find yourself eagerly jumping from one ficlet to the next to complete your Cockles fix.
The authors have also included a lovely and heartbreaking playlist that has songs that perfectly complement each accompanying chapter embedded at the end.

Author's Summary: A Drabble of some JenMish moments following the election.
Relationship: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Mark Sheppard
Author’s Tags: election, Angst, Comfort, Social Media, Cons, Mark Sheppard's wedding, alternating pov
First Line: Nothing could dull the heartache he felt. Sure there were moments of joy; hugging his children, kissing his wife, hearing his lover’s voice… but that constant pit that ate at him never went away.
Mod Comment: Hallemcready is the ficlet queen. She writes the kind of stories that are packed tight with emotion, and have an undeniable realism to them that hurts sooo good you never want it to end -- and, barring a few occasions, she somehow manages to jam all that sentiment in 2,000 words or less. It’s a power-punch of feels in a teeny-tiny container, and we absolutely adore every. single. schmoopsy. word.
Author's Summary: There’s no point to this story, Jensen thought once. No direction, no purpose, no goal – no point. He knows now, as he slides up behind Misha’s chair in the quiet anteroom, breathing in the strange combination of smells from Misha’s coconut shampoo and spicy grapefruit shower gel, that this is the point.
Relationship: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins
Author’s Tags: RPF, jibcon, jib4, Romance, Cockles
Favorite Line: As soon as they sit themselves down in the uncomfortable stage chairs for their panels, Jensen forgets. He forgets he’s not supposed to flirt – he forgets he’s not supposed to stare so overtly with love and affection, not supposed to touch too much or tease too much, not supposed to cup Misha’s cheek in his palm and playfully push him away and especially not supposed to find the way Misha grins and curls his knees up towards his chest on his seat absolutely one of the most fucking adorable things he’s ever seen.
Mod Comment: A lovely, emotion-fueled, post-JIBCON4 one-shot that is as romantic as it is sexy. The air of comfortable domesticity is a nice change of pace from the usual hot-n-heavy post-con fics. Just beautiful.
Author's Summary: By the time the plane takes off from Bellingham International, Misha's mood has dropped as low as the frigid Washington temperatures. He has no good answer for why he decided to look at his social media mentions again, but here he is, dreaming up creative ways to get away with murder and make Jensen keep his promise to help him bury the body. Vicki tries more than a few times to lift his spirits by showing him the good comments, the love his fans are giving him, but he's too lost in his own head.
In which Misha Collins is upset by a moldy condiment and his nasty followers... and a trip to Austin, Texas is just the prescription he needs to show him how much he's loved.
Relationships: Misha Collins/Vicki Vantoch, Jensen Ackles/Danneel Harris, Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins, Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins/Danneel Harris/Vicki Vantoch
Characters: Misha Collins, Vicki Vantoch, Jensen Ackles, Danneel Harris, Jared Padalecki-mentioned, Genevieve Padalecki-Mentioned
Author’s Tags: New Year's Eve, Instagram, Angst and Hurt/Comfort, Fluff and Humor, Angst and Fluff and Smut, Explicit Language, Explicit Sexual Content, Polyamory, Foursome - F/F/M/M, Anal Sex, Anal Fingering, Blow Jobs, Vaginal Fingering, Oral Sex, Upset Misha Collins, Arguing, Jensen Ackles Singing, Top Misha Collins, Bottom Jensen Ackles, cooking together
Favorite Lines: Danneel starts to giggle, but covers her mouth with her fingers when Jensen levels a dangerous glare on her.
“Wait a minute, what just happened?” Vicki holds her hand up.
“Ya see, Vick,” Danneel cradles her chin with her thumb and forefinger, turning to face her and taking on the cadence of a news reporter. “It would appear that Jensen attempted to establish dominance with Misha here, but was mentally spanked into submission by the sharp arch of the brow and strong jawset of Mr. Krushnic, as we both witnessed.”
Mod Comment: This fix-it fic is hot and sweet, funny and angsty, the perfect antidote to the maelstrom that hit the fandom when certain people attempted to discredit Misha in an underhanded and horrible public attack on his character. Poly-inclusive in the most satisfying way, the relationships among the ‘characters’ are fleshed out beautifully, and the foursome sex-scene is...*fans self*. AHEM.
**TRIGGER WARNING: Mention of TAW and his cronies.**
Author's Summary: Misha's poetry isn't just for SnapChat.
Relationships: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Various actors from Vegas Con
Aothor’s Tags: Salute to Supernatural Las Vegas Convention, Valentine Schmoop, Gratuitous use of post-it notes, Poetry, Cockles Cooperative
First Line: The post-it note was haphazardly stuck to the centre of the mirror in the hotel bathroom where Jensen couldn’t possibly miss it. Tilted on an angle on a single ‘Barbie-pink’ square, in Misha’s instantly recognizable printing, were a few lines of prose.
Mod Comment: Lovely, fluffy mid-convention fic that plays off Misha’s love of poetry in the most beautiful way and made us sigh with joy.
Author's Summary: It is a truth universally acknowledged that falling for your roommate is a Very Bad Idea. So accidentally falling for his roommate, who may-or-may-not be involved with his other roommate, might just turn out to be one of the most regrettable things Misha has ever done.
Relationships: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins, Misha Collins/OFC (past relationship), Rob Benedict/OFC
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Rob Benedict, Felicia Day, Matt Cohen, Alexandra Sutter (OFC), Melanie Walsh (OFC), Briana Buckmaster
Author’s Tags: Alternate Universe - College/University, Fluff, Angst, Misunderstandings, Recreational Drug Use, Awkward Romance, UST, Pining, so much pining, openly bi!Jensen, confused curious!Misha, Sitcom, POV Misha, Cockles
Favorite Line: It occurred to him Jensen tried too hard, like he was playing a part and merely acting disarmingly… human. But even that notion was somehow endearing, like it was a quality specifically aimed at Misha's curiosity, set to pull at the silken threads in his brain like a fly landing deliberately in his web in order to lure him out only to find that the fly was actually a predator poisoning him with concupiscent venom spreading under his skin like hot oil and Oh God he might actually be going to die.
Mod Comment: Serenhawk is not only one of our mods, but one of my, personal, favorite authors. Her style is as distinctive as it is elegant, and she weaves stories like lace. Beautiful and intricate, with threads that entwine effortlessly together to make up a stunningly interconnected whole. She usually writes ‘canon’ Cockles; this is her first AU -- and she doesn’t disappoint. The plot is cleverly woven and plausible, and despite being set in an alternate reality, a collage/coffee shop adjacent trope, her depiction of the boys still manages to remain completely in character, whilst still being off balance enough to make it interesting, yet not disorienting. Give it a read, I guarantee you will not be the least bit disappointed.
Author's Summary: Jensen notices Misha making eyes at Danneel in the photo he took of her on set. Danneel and Misha notice him noticing. Jensen is so screwed.
Relationships: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins, Jensen Ackles/Danneel Harris, Jensen Ackles/Danneel Harris/Misha Collins, Misha Collins/Danneel Harris
Characters: Jensen Ackles, Danneel Harris, Misha Collins
Author's Tags: Plot What Plot/Porn Without Plot, Porn, Smut, Fluff and Smut, Seriously Just Sex, Threesome - F/M/M, Dom/sub Undertones, Top Misha Collins, Bottom Jensen Ackles, Gay Sex, Heterosexual Sex, RPF
Author’s First Line: Jensen couldn’t breathe.
Mod Comment: This was the author’s first time posting RPF and woah Nellie! It’s everything you wanted in a smutty one-shot, and didn’t know you needed. Poly-inclusive and just plain hot, with a touch of added sweetness thrown in just to balance things out.
The Cockles fic rec blog has a fic challenge for past, present or future JenMish authors.

Plead the Fifth, Sticky Outy Bits - Or - In which Jensen is very Jealous and Misha is very Bendy, and The RAoK Shirt Declaration – or – In which Misha is hated and Jensen has a plan (WIP but fantastic so far) by BrielleSPN. The first is all fluff but the last two are very... descriptive. ;)
Dear Anon,
Thank you for the awesome Recs!
As it happens, these fics belong to Mod B and she’s tickled pink! We’ll make sure they’re added to the database asap, but in the meantime here’s a link to BrielleSPN’s Cockles catalogue:http://archiveofourown.org/users/BrielleSPN/pseuds/BrielleSPN
~Mod S
Dearest lovely Cocklesonians (may we call you that? we’re gonna call you that.),
We have our first fic rec!
And from Mr Collins himself, no less. And whilst it may not be Cockles, far be it for us to argue with the man! (also technically it IS a Cockles fic rec, being as it's a rec directly from one half of the pairing in question.)
So without further ado, I give you:
The Exciting Adventures of the Impala and her Crew by Darknessalwaysfalls
Author’s Summary: Captain Jeffrey Dean Morgan and his crew sail aboard the Impala across the seas, enforcing justice upon slave ships, stealing from merchants, acting as mercenaries, and protecting their claimed territory. However, a new threat appears and disrupts their casual days of action. Who has dared challenge their right to sail and what will they do to enact justice?
Admin notes: This seems to be a discarded multiship fic catalogued under the J2 pairing. We’re including it here because how could we not? You cannot complain when your blessings aren’t tailored exactly to your liking, and Misha blogging a fic from Ao3 is definitely a blessing that had to be acknowledged.
Addendum: This was too good an opportunity to waste. We promise we’ll get down to reccing actual Cockles fic ASAP.
Thanks Misha!
You say Tumblr is the digital slash archive, but has anyone introduced you to AO3 (Archive of Our Own) yet? 103,000 Supernatural slash fics and counting. (Along with 50,000 non-slash SPN fics and 1.4 million non-SPN slash fics.)
I just googled AO3. THANK YOU for introducing me to it! I can’t wait to dig into the various tags in there. I also can’t believe that there are only 4600 works of slash fiction that mention my name. Where did all the others go?
At the time of writing, the fic count for “Misha Collins” stands at 4265, so it appears that unfortunately Mr Collins is sadly mistaken.
So it’s up to us to rectify this egregious misconception!
In an attempt to keep Mr Collins informed, please send us recs on not just AO3, but other platforms too. This way we can be assured that he has the latest, most up-to-date information available.
Misha is counting on you!
Dearest fellow Cockles fic aficionados,
Your enthusiasm at our return has left us pleased, and, to be honest, a little speechless.
The response so far has been a resounding “OMG YIIISSS. I NEED/FOUND/WROTE THIS FIC *fling*”, which makes us bounce in our seats with joy, and further illustrates the desperate need for this type of resource.
In the mere few hours we have been back, we have been inundated with recs, research queries, and fic requests; both on here, on twitter, and via email -- which makes us SO HAPPY! -- but leaves us somewhat overwhelmed.
So please bear with us, we will get to all of you (we promise!), and will start methodically working through the questions, comments, and requests; and posting your recs as soon as humanly possible.
In the meantime, please enjoy this classic Cockles jib moment with our joy and heartfelt thanks.
You guys rock. Seriously. <3

Hi I was wondering whether you know any cockles fics that portray them platonically?
Ohhh that's tricky to find :D
Here is a list of cockles fics on AO3 marked GEN and sorted by kudos. I went half way down the list and could not find a single platonic fic! Nonetheless, they are gen rated.
http://archiveofourown.org/works?utf8=%E2%9C%93&work_search%5Bsort_column%5D=kudos_count&work_search%5Brating_ids%5D%5B%5D=10&work_search%5Bother_tag_names%5D=&work_search%5Bquery%5D=&work_search%5Blanguage_id%5D=&work_search%5Bcomplete%5D=0&work_search%5Bcomplete%5D=1&commit=Sort+and+Filter&tag_id=Jensen+Ackles*s*Misha+Collins
So I promised a guest review for @cocklesfanfic about 74738564538745bajillion years ago and finally, HERE IT IS.
Author Summary: Don’t mix too many Sierra Nevadas and Rob Benedict … things might end up being said that shouldn’t be.
Author Warnings: Jensen Ackles/Misha Collins, Jensen Ackles/Rob Benedict/Misha Collins, Threesome, Threesome - M/M/M, Top Misha, Anal Fingering, Friendship/Love, Polyamory, Boys Kissing, Fluff and Smut, Humor, Sexual Humor
Review: For those who like their Cockles with a little extra polyamory. Respectful to the wives of all involved, which is a definite must for me with RPS fics. Misha and Jensen are brilliantly written in this, I love their snark and all their stupid little “arguments” and the way you can clearly see they’re absolutely besotted with each other even when they bickering.
Commits the cardinal sin of using “the green eyed man” as a descriptor, but it doesn’t do it much, and I enjoyed the fic so much I am prepared to overlook it ;P
Nice build up to the sex, and I loved how awkward and fumbling Rob was about it all and how it was his wife in the end telling him to pull his head out of his ass and go for it. I don’t know if he’s particularly in character, because I don’t know much about him, so perhaps heed the author’s warning if that’s something you’re likely to notice.
As for the sex itself, beautifully written, and with Misha in full dom eyebrow mode. A definite must read.
