pkwench to the rescue!
I know I've been whining a LOT about the fic I was writing for an exchange, but pkwench has totally saved the day! She asked about the prompts I got, then threw a couple of ideas my way, including one which was pretty cracktastic, and suddenly I had 4,000+ words of fiction written.
Yeah, I don't know. The woman has special magical prompting powers, I swear!
It turns out that I needed to scrap the really boring thing I wrote before and write crack fiction instead. I really hope the prompter isn't too offended by what I came up with, but I REGRET NOTHING.
The new fic is a LOT better. It flowed, it had some fun lines in it (including": “Great. In the meantime, I'm stuck re-enacting Julia & Julia,” Dean grumbled. which is my personal favourite), and had a better ending than the last one.
In short: \o/

While I was ecstatic to see mine go off to the mods two days ago, I couldn't help but say yes when today I got called on for a pinch-hit. The prompt is just awesome, I couldn't turn it down, and I'm really happy to get to work on at least one I'm legitimately excited about. :)

I am NEVER doing a fic exchange again. I will happily participate in any challenge in which I have a say over the prompt I get. I've learned my lesson.
Looking forward to seeing your fics too!
