I’ve been stuck on the Gorgon head now 😭😭

Meg is no longer my worst nightmare

[seduceme-lovestruck-thearcana]

@megatraven

(Proofreading but forgive me if some things are off-)

Meg….hear me out for a minute.

I’ve been thinking of Eros and MC too much lately and your draft was literally?? So good?? I’m receiving crumbs of Eros and MC and I’m HERE FOR IT!!

But anyway my brain randomly thought of how our Mr. Frog (Chance Valentine) told the MC he loved her once she followed him on a dangerous mission. She got hurt and he’s like “you idiot girl :(” and he said how he loved her (I believe so). Now hear me out. What if….Eros did the same thing? Not the idiot girl part BUT the part where MC is kidnapped or injured very badly in the middle of a fight on their first case. My mind went with the kidnapped one because….It feels more angsty than the other one lol.

So MC and Eros get into a fight (obviously) because of something in the case and their differing opinions, and they both go home very angry. However, MC wasn’t alone. She gets home and believes all is well, but she doesn’t realize the enemy followed her (or one of the enemies if there is multiple). They get her vulnerable and overpower her and manage to take her somewhere no one knows of. Now, next day Eros arrives at their next meeting place since they got a lead, but MC isn’t there. Eros is confused because usually she was there first, always eager to show him that she was at least better than him at showing up early. He gets confused and waits for awhile to see if she shows, but she never does.

They’d gotten into arguments before on the case, and they’ve both gone home very angry, but still she showed up each time. But…now she wasn’t. He’s thinking, “Did I piss her off that badly?” But he doesn’t let it stop him. He looks into the lead and does work as normal, but without her slightly comforting presence. He begins to realize he missed her little quips and the way they would go back and forth with each other in a friendly way (sometimes). But once again, he pushes it off and assumes that she needed more time to calm down.

She doesn’t show up for the rest of the day. There’s no text message of an apology or of anger, just nothing. Radio silence is all he gets from her, and a day passes before he actually gets worried. Mainly because she didn’t meet him again, and she never went to H.E.R.A in the past two days. He knew she would never skip out on doing her job and showing up to give her info to Alex, so now it didn’t make sense and it began to gnaw at his heart. He calls Alex to get more context and confirms that even they haven’t seen or heard from her.

Now his heart is HEAVY with guilt and worry. He pushes down his pride and goes to her apartment, hoping to meet her and apologize, but she’s not there either. He knocks and knocks, but gets no answer, not even sound of movement. He knew he shouldn’t invade on her privacy, but he finds a way into her apartment (some godly powers or something) and sees everything a mess. Anybody could tell that a struggle took place, and this made his heart drop. He looks around at everything messed with, practically looks around her whole apartment (other than her real personal stuff) and notices something the enemy forgot.

Her ring. It’s on the floor and almost hidden completely from sight, but it’s there. Now he knows this isn’t her ignoring him because of her anger, this is serious. She’s been taken and is vulnerable against a godly being. Now he feels guilt and anger. He feels guilt at how he started the argument, pushed her further and further until she left, and how he didn’t even check on her at all. But then his pride comes back. “If she had just listened to me!” Is his first thought. But he pushes it aside and let’s Alex know so they can help. Now all of HERA knows that an agent is missing and is in danger, and they can feel the tension and unease from Eros. Gods always gave mortals and even demigods a heavy feeling, but now they feel it more because of his emotions.

Now, talking about MCs side. She wakes up and immediately realizes she’s kidnapped. She looks around and has no idea where she is, and then she realizes she doesn’t have her ring. It makes her blood go cold and her whole body freeze. She may have been strong, but that was against a mortal. She had no chance fighting a godly being (or monster), so now she feared for her life. The enemy taunts her (like they always do🙄) and threatens her. They’re playing with their prey, and there’s nothing she can do. She does try to fight back, but they injure her and it's pretty bad. She’s at their mercy, and she prays to the gods for someone to find her.

Her mind can’t help but wander to Eros. I imagine this taking place after a time where Eros made fun of her feelings towards him. You mentioned in a past fic that he made fun of her growing love towards him, and I imagine this happens after that. She feels anger at what he said before, but she can’t help but feel fear and pray that he saves her. She has many things to tell him, and she wants to help. She’s never been a woman to give up after all.

Eventually, Eros finds her and sees her weakened state. He sees the unhealed injuries on her body and he gets PISSED. He begins to run over to her, but the enemy appears and blocks her. They do the whole thing where they try to harm her and when Eros tries to fight back, they use her as a shield or as a reason he shouldn’t fight back.

“If you move, she gets it,” is something they would say.

This situation is terrifying for both of them, and he has never listened to someone telling him what to do, telling him how he should be, but he listens now. He found himself doing that more and more often because of her. She’d brought back a different side of him, a better side, and now he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. To bring her back and get her healed. He wants to apologize and admit his care for her. This whole situation has helped him realize everything he feels for her. He doesn’t know how he buried it deep in his heart, but he did and now it was dug up to the surface and he can’t put it back down.

I can't think of all the details, but he manages to defeat the enemy, with her help, and then he takes her to safety, they make up, and then kiss kiss fall in love. I'm really bad at wrapping things up Meg😭, but I liked this idea a little bit.

My mind only has been thinking of this for about...a day so it's not the best described idea, but I hope it makes sense and I painted some of the angst properly. And I hope I wrote Eros's character at least somewhat in character and not terribly. BUT ANYWAYS! I hope you liked this angst idea like I did.

Writing goals for 2023:

write more nonsensical insanity and just have fun lmao

as for concrete plans!! I’d love to write a whole series of x readers with horror ladies (final girl/villain/what have u)! carly and tiff are already on that list, but if you have any other ideas, I’m all ears! I need to brush through my horror lady mental catalogue and give them some ao3 rights lmao!

Marvelous Friends - part 8

Summary: your summer in Boston is moving along and so is your relationship with Chris

dividers by @firefly-graphics

The summer seemed to be flying by with endless amounts of papers to grade and checking in with the attorney regarding the lawsuit.  Reaching out to your ex was not on your priority list, but you put on your big girl pants and called him anyway.  Finally speaking with him wasn't as awful as you had anticipated but that may just be the fact you didn't have to see him face to face, yet.  You knew if this was to go as far as you hoped, you would have to sit down and hash out this mess and possibly end up discussing the past but, thankfully you weren't there yet. 

Dating Chris felt so easy and comfortable for you, but you had both decided to take things slow, not wanting to jump in too fast, which you knew was a major decision but damn was it frustrating.  Once your brothers found out who you were dating, your sister in laws were relentless about wanting details, it was unsettling to say the least.  

Annette: so…..we had to hear from our husbands? Really Y/N?  

What are you talking about? 

Marie:  the boys are talking about if they approve of Mr. Evans and his intentions with their only sister

Oh geez….it’s only been a few weeks, we are nowhere near intentions 

And even if we were, they won’t be involved

Jan: LOL  you said that like you actually think it’s true!

Ugh, why are they such pains in my ass

But I am thankful that it’s you 4 texting me and not them

Meghan: can we get back on topic?  I want details…..

LOL!  What kind of details Meg? We’ve been dating for a month

Meghan: what is this high school?  Are you trying to say you haven’t slept together?

Annette: we want to know if his ‘persona’ is accurate?

Ok….we haven’t slept together and what persona are you referring to?

Maria: Really? I would have on the first date!

Jan: his BDE persona…..so?

LOL I just said we haven't slept together

Annette: there’s plenty of other fun to be had to confirm his size

Marie:  If you confirm it or not, I know he has a monster cock!

OMG!  Have you been drinking?  I’ve never heard such things from you!

Shaking your head at the ridiculousness that was your family, you tried your best to concentrate on your current predicament.  The teaching job was almost over, and honestly, it wasn’t your cup of tea.  You could continue, if the school asked, but you weren’t passionate about what you were doing and just going through the motions wasn’t you.  

So deciding if you were staying in Boston was your main concern, your summer AirBNB rental was up in 2 weeks, and to top it all off, you needed a new manager or you would be stuck trying to maneuver your career on your own and your brain did not work that way. It was almost 2pm on Saturday, you had writing you needed to do, but right now you needed a drink.

 You wrote a text to Chris, then rewrote it another 3 times before sending it, you were a professional writer, but he still made you anxious

 Hey, I need to get out of the house and could use a drink, you free? 

Chris: I’m home, ‘working’ but the pool and beers are calling my name….grab your suit and come over

Huh, an afternoon lounging by the pool with a shirtless Chris could really improve your mood.  

I’ll be there in a half hour

You rushed to be presentable, you were determined to be cute but make it look like you weren’t trying.  How did this guy make you feel like you were 20 again?  Taking a deep breath you grabbed your stuff and headed to his place.  Your anxiousness dissipated as soon as Chris opened the door and flashed you that perfect smile, instead you only felt butterflies.  

In no time, the two of you were lounging poolside with beers, Chris looked over at you “so what’s got you stressed? And where are the stress cookies?” 

“Well, there is a laundry list of things I need to accomplish and not much time.  I didn’t bake today, so it’s less stress and more of an overwhelming adulting that I’m actively avoiding” you chuckle as you finish off your beer.  

“Alright, so what’s on the list?” he asked as he grabbed the empty bottle.  

“I need a new manager and a place to live, those are my top priorities.  I should follow up with Henry and his buddy that’s handling the case against Aaron, but I’m not sure what else I can help with.  I also have a new story I’m writing that needs attention, and the family is requesting me to come visit soon”  you shrug at him. 

"Ok, that's a pretty long list, so we start with the most important and go from there. When do you have to get out of your current place?  I...I, uh have an extra room if you need something soon" he smirks at you and you realize how blue his eyes really are. 

"I appreciate the offer, but I think it's a bit soon for that" you smile at the sweet offer. 

"Can't blame a guy for wanting his girlfriend around as much as possible" he shrugs before taking a long sip of beer. 

You stutter before responding "girlfriend? you just called me your girlfriend" you were a bit shocked and giddy all at the same time, geez what this guy did to you.  

Chris' eyes went wide before he smirked and shrugged "if you don't want to be, just let me know, but that's what I want so it's up to you." He seemed pretty calm about it, but you could see a bit of hesitation in his eyes. The thought of rejecting him was ridiculous but you were a bit tipsy from the beers and wanted to tease him a bit. 

"Well, it doesn't quite fit does it?" You cocked your head and could have sworn he saw him hold his breath, before you bravely got up and walked towards him, slowly straddling his lap "I haven't been a girl in decades" you whisper, keeping your eyes glued to his, as his hands rested on your hips. "But I'm sure if I was a bad girl, you'd punish me, wouldn't you?" biting your lip and slowly beginning to rock back and forth before leaning into his ear and breathy add "daddy". 

That threw him over the edge as he grabbed your ass and moaned while starting to nibble on your neck.  He pulled back to look at you, growling low in his chest "you are a very bad girl….and you're mine". 

Your lips smashed together as you wrapped your arms around his neck and started tugging on his hair, you squealed as he spanked you in response.  

He chuckled as he kissed you again, "I thought we were taking things slow….. but you are making that very hard right now" raising his hips to emphasize just how hard he had become while you were grinding on his lap. 

"I tried, I really did, but seeing these tattoos up close made me lose any self restraint I had left, so it's essentially your fault" you shrug and begin kissing his jaw.  

He hummed in response "so I'm the one that made you needy, huh?" One hand was now inching its way in your bikini bottoms to get a better grip of your ass, while the other was softly massaging your thigh.  

"Mmmmm, yes daddy" was all you could respond before he was standing up with you in his arms, and he started heading inside. Yelping, you were a bit shocked at the movement and quickly wrapped your legs around his waist so you didn't fall.  

"Then it's my responsibility to take care of you" he mumbled against your neck before walking upstairs with you still attached.  

You were graciously dropped on his bed as he leaned down and began trailing kisses down your neck to your breasts, pulling your suit top off. He moved his mouth to your nipple and elicited a groan as he swirled his tongue around your sensitive bud, bringing up one hand to palm at the opposite breast.  

You moaned at the sensation he sent through you and tried your best to run your hands over his arms and back but were too distracted by the sinful things his mouth was doing.  His lips moved to your other breast and you were certain you could orgasm just by watching him and the intensity in his eyes while he was worshipping your body.  

Working his way down your torso, leaving love bites In his path.  When he reached your bikini bottoms, he looked up for consent, which made you want to melt. Your only logical response was a small whimper of "please" before he growled and pulled them from your body in a flash, immediately throwing your legs over his shoulders, pulling your thighs apart and instantly feasting on your pussy.  The slurping sounds he was making were obscene and causing you to become more aroused by the second. 

"Mmmm you're so wet for me and you taste amazing…..I could eat you all night"  His words made you moan more than you were but you couldn't hold back. "That's it….let daddy hear just how good I make you feel" he mumbled against your slit, causing you to arch off the bed slightly. 

"You gonna cum baby, I've barely gotten started" he had a hint of pride in his words. Your breathing was shallow as you panted out "yes daddy…...please...I'm so close."

As soon as the words left your mouth, his lips wrapped around your swollen clit and that was exactly what you needed to throw you over the edge. Your eyes clamped shut, and your head thrown back as you shouted his name.  

Once your breathing had slowed, you opened your eyes to see Chris hovering over you with a smile on his face before capturing your lips in a passionate kiss.

 "That was amazing" you breathed out and smiled back at him, running one hand through his hair and the other along his bicep. 

"Oh baby, I'm just getting started" Chris kissed you again as he hovered over you and positioned his cock at your entrance, after slowly running it back and forth through your release.  Your moan turned into a grunt as he started pushing into you. 

He stopped immediately and looked at you with concern, "you ok?" he asked while caressing hu our cheek.  You nodded but he stayed still, "keep going, please"  "are you sure? We can stop if you aren't comfortable…..I want you to enjoy this" he whispered and you almost wanted to cry at how attentive and kind he was.  

The stillness helped you adjust and you smiled at him. "I'm positive,  I want you more than you could possibly know, it's just…" you trailed off not sure how to assure him. 

"What is it?" he looked worried now and you wrapped your legs around him before you could get away.  

"Its just that it's been a long time since I've been with anyone and you are….rather large" you felt a little embarrassed but right now it didn't matter, you have been fantasizing about this moment since you met him and you knew you were falling for him, you just hoped this was the beginning of a romance you had been dreaming of.  

Chris' smile returned to his face as he leaned in and kissed you passionately, "don't worry baby, I'll be gentle" you noticed he had a glimmer in his eyes before he added "this time." 

Your eyes widened as he continued inching into you slowly and kissing your jaw, up to your ear and down to your pulse point before his hips finally met yours.

 You could only moan in response, you had never been stretched like this before and wanted to focus on the pleasure as the slight pain began to disappear.  Bringing him back into a needy kiss you rocked your hips forward and clenched around him signaling your desire for him to begin moving and he immediately responded with slow powerful thrusts.  

As Chris gradually sped up you were clawing at his shoulders and back, practically holding on for dear life. He started panting between kisses "fuck baby….you feel amazing….better than I imagined."  

Just the thought of him imagining you like this made you clench up around him and moan as you arched your back, "fuck daddy!"  You could have sworn he growled as he started to move in and out of you faster than you thought possible. 

Chris' hand found your clit and added the perfect amount of pressure with tight circles "cum for me baby…..I can feel you are close…..be a good girl for daddy" he grunted in your ear as your climax hit you and your entire body tensed.  He worked you through your high before pulling out and shooting his load across stomach and breasts with a groan.  Immediately collapsing beside you, Chris pulled you to him before kissing you softly.  

You were warm and so comfortable that you didn’t want to open your eyes, until your activities with Chris came racing back into your mind.  Slowly peeking, you inhaled quietly when you realized the pillow you were using was actually his right peck, with his nipple so close to your mouth you could almost lick it.  

Deciding to enjoy the view rather than wake him you tried your best to remain quiet and take him all in.  His face was soft and relaxed, and he looked even more handsome up close if that was even possible.  You admired the tattoos that littered his chest up close and wanted to trace them with your fingertip but too afraid that would wake him.   

Moving your hand slightly, he didn’t stir or change his breathing pattern, so you decided to take advantage and explore the man lying next to you.  Knowing how big he felt, was different than actually seeing how big he was, so you bravely removed the sheet covering the bottom half of the two of you.  

Your breath hitched in your throat and your mouth began to immediately water at the site of him.  Even without being erect, his size was rather impressive.  This is when you decided that you were going to take what you wanted, if you happened to wake up, you hoped he was feeling too good to be mad at you for it.   

As slowly as possible, you made your way down the bed until his cock was right at eye level, biting your lip. You slowly started to stroke, it immediately twitched in your hand.  Licking your lips, you took the tip in your mouth and began to suck, causing Chris to make a noise somewhere between a moan and a sigh, which only encouraged you to continue.  

Running your tongue over his balls before bringing it along the underside from base to tip, causing him to become fully erect.  You smiled at yourself as you took him back into your mouth and started to bob your head up and down as much as you could take in, only looking back to Chris when you felt his hand brush your hair away from your face.  

Looking up at him, you decided to play coy, and slowly pulled him out of your mouth but continued to stroke him in your hand.  “I’m sorry, did I wake you?” you smirked at him.  

“You did, but only in the best way possible” he groaned as you continued your previous task and began bobbing again, using one hand to massage his balls and the other hand to stroke what couldn’t fit in your mouth.  

Chris’ moaning and heavy breathing was turning you on, but your objective this morning was his needs and not yours.  You continued working on his cock while looking at his face, and gawd did he look beautiful like this, but you could tell he was close or holding back trying to make it last longer, so you pulled back and smirked at him, whispering “cum for me, daddy”.  

A few more bobs of your head and he was gone, sending his seed to the back of your throat as you moaned around him.  “Well, that is a hell of a way to wake up…..what time is it?” Chris looked at you with a sleepy smile. 

“I’m glad you liked it, I just couldn't resist.  Whatever time it is, I’m hungry, we’ve worked up quite the appetite” you respond as you make your way back to lying beside him.  He leaned in for a sweet kiss. 

“I propose we shower and get something to eat.”  You could only smile and nod in response before he was lifting you bridal style and carrying you into the bathroom.

6 Months Later

If the sun refuses to shine

I would still be loving you

“So, you don’t know what he has planned for tonight?”

Y/N stood in front of her mirror, applying her make-up. Charlie, who sat on the bed behind her, had just asked her that question, to which Y/N shook her head.

“No idea” she said, before picking up her eyeliner and bringing it to her right eye first.

Meg walked into the room, handing Charlie one of the glasses of water she had in her hands. “If he told you to dress up, it’s something important.”

Y/N smiled, shrugging her shoulders. “Maybe. I just want to have a good time tonight. He’s been so busy with the house; we can finally relax tonight.”

“You still want it to be a surprise, huh?” Charlie asked, smiling.

“Yeah” Y/N replied, quietly, smiling to herself.

A lot had happened in Dean and Y/N’s life.

They had spent nearly every waking moment together, when they weren’t at work or with their friends or Dean’s family. To say that they fell more in love with each other every day was an understatement. They both couldn’t believe how much more they were able to give with each passing moment. Since Dean had told her about the house, they had begun planning everything for it together. She would give him her ideas from her home magazines, telling him different ways to go about doing the internal re-model. However, Dean being Dean, didn’t tell her which of her ideas he was taking on board. He had taken her saying she wanted to be surprised very seriously.

Y/N couldn’t believe how far they had come; from just being neighbors and liking each other, to a proper couple in the span of several months. She had met his family, and everyone loved her instantly. They had their first Valentine’s Day and Dean had pulled out all the stops, taking her to a fancy restaurant and then a hotel in the city for the night, taking work off the next day which she did too, enjoying spending time together before their late check-out.

Then, the time came for Dean to meet her parents. She had been nervous, but she knew her family would give him the same treatment that his gave her. They had come down from New York to visit her just as summer break started. Her parents along with her sister and brother-in-law and the kids all hauled themselves down to Kansas to see her and meet Dean. When she had told him, he had been incredibly nervous to meet them, but had agreed, nonetheless.

They spent an entire afternoon together, Dean played with Y/N’s nieces who were obsessed with him now, took her dad and Brian out for a spin in the Impala, and charmed her mom and Jill all day until her sister and brother-in-law returned to the hotel with the kids, as Y/N’s parents were staying with her. Dean had passed with flying colors, which they were both so relieved about. The family’s trip there pretty much cemented that things were serious, and they were moving onto a bright future together.

Once the family had left after visiting for a week, Dean took Y/N on a trip to California, on a two-week getaway that he cited they needed to take after working so hard for the last several months. It was their first trip together, and Dean had driven them down there. The beach house they got to stay in belonged to a friend of Sam’s from college, which they had all to themselves as the friend and his wife had gone to Europe for the summer. Sam and Eileen weren’t able to go, as she didn’t want to endure a long drive while pregnant, and she also couldn’t fly now. So, Dean took the opportunity to be alone with Y/N, spending a romantic trip away together. They spent their days on the beach, exploring the town and soaking up the sun, with their nights spent at bars, restaurants and night walks along the shore, before exploring each other once they got back to the house.

It had been exactly what they needed, both of them falling even more in love with each other if that was even possible.

Sam and Eileen’s son was born a week after the trip, both parents exhausted but over the moon with their bundle of joy. Dean and Y/N had taken on babysitting duties a couple of months later, knowing the parents definitely needed a break. As if seeing Dean with her nieces hadn’t been enough, Dean with his baby nephew was a sight to behold and had given Y/N plenty of thoughts she shouldn’t have had. Not for a while, at least.

She knew they were heading in that direction, and she also knew that Dean felt the same way, but it was better to not get carried away with thoughts of marriage and children until those things were properly on the cards for them.

When mountains crumble to the sea

There will still be you and me

Six months later, nearly a year to the day she had met him, and she had fallen harder with each day that passed. He made her feel loved, protected and safe. He cared about her and her job, her passions and her wants and needs. He was completely satisfying in every department, especially the bedroom, getting her to admit to fantasies she had hidden and even playing out a very particular one. She had given him his teacher fantasy, so it was only right he gave her one of hers.

Through it all, there was only one thought she had. That she wanted to spend the rest of her life with Dean Winchester. She wanted to make a life with him and only him. He was her person.

As Y/N reflected on everything that had happened, she quickly changed into her wine-red dress and nude heels, put on her thin, diamond, drop earrings and made sure her Y/H/C hair was still perfectly styled and her make-up was flawless, having gone for a lighter look with a light pink lip.

“So… how do I look?” she asked, turning to her friends.

“Beautiful” they both sighed, smiling at her.

“He’s not going to know what hit him” Meg said with a wink.

Just then, the doorbell rang a couple of times, signalling Dean had walked over to her house to come and get her. She still only used it to keep her clothes and do her work in her office, spending most of the days and all her nights over at Dean’s.

“Alright, I better go” she said, doing one last check in the mirror. “You girls stay as long as you want, just-”

“Lock up when we leave, we know” Charlie smiled. “Go.”

Y/N smiled as she walked out of the bedroom, Charlie and Meg hanging around in the hallway as they watched her greet Dean with a kiss.

“She really has no idea what’s going to happen soon” Charlie quietly squealed.

“I know” Meg said, excitedly as they both waved at Dean, giving him a thumbs up as he winked at them when Y/N’s back was turned. She smiled back at them one last time before shutting the door, leaving the girls in the house.

“I always knew they’d get to this point” Charlie said, beaming. “Gosh, I’m so happy she came into his life.”

“Amen to that” Meg said, as she clinked her glass of water against Charlie’s. They both took a few sips, before rinsing the glasses and picking up their bags.

“Alright, what time did Dean say they’ll be done?” Meg asked, as they stepped out the door and locked up Y/N’s house.

“Around 9” Charlie replied, as they got into her car.

“Good. That means we have enough time” Meg said, as she buckled her seatbelt.

They both couldn’t wait to help Dean make this a night Y/N would remember forever.

Kind woman, I give you my all

Kind woman, nothing more

Dean smiled at the look on Y/N’s face as the waitress popped the champagne he had ordered, pouring them each some in the champagne flutes before putting the bottle in the ice bucket, and walking away. He loved the look of surprise and giddiness on her face, but she really had no idea what was in store for her tonight.

“This is all too much, Dean” she said, shaking her head even though she was smiling. “Champagne, the restaurant to ourselves…”

He waved her off, smirking. “I’ve been coming here for years, so Tony owed me at this point.”

He had taken her to the restaurant he took her to on their first date, just six months ago. He had known the owner for years, coming in here often enough plus Dean fixing Tony’s car several times in the past few years, plus the place practically being an institution of Lawrence, all added up to Dean being able to have the place for themselves that night.

“Well, I’m glad it didn’t cost you much” she smiled, as she picked up her glass and held it up for a toast. “To six, amazing, official months, but to one whole year of knowing you.”

“To knowing you, too” he smirked as he clinked his glass with hers, secretly touched that she had said that.

Dean knew that he was truly blessed to have the amazing woman sitting in front of him, in his life. She had saved him from a life of misery, something he never would’ve realized or gotten out of if she hadn’t shown up and completely turned his life around, for the better. She made him feel appreciated, valued, cared for and loved. She was genuinely excited about his achievements when it came to work, and even gave him ideas on how to do things when he voiced that he was lost sometimes. She supported him and his passion, being equally passionate and driven, just in her own profession.

She was absolutely stunning, knocking him down a few pegs every time he looked at her, and god damn it, if she wasn’t the sexiest woman he had ever been with. She had fulfilled a fantasy of his, and he had returned the favor recently, finding out while he enjoyed her being dominant towards him, he absolutely loved seeing her being submissive for him.

He knew from the moment they met that she was going to be sticking around for a while. Then, a while turned into him wanting her around forever, once things became more serious between them.

Meeting her family sealed the deal for him, however. He wanted Y/N in his life for as long as they lived.

Little drops of rain whisper of the pain

Tears of love lost in the days gone by

They ate and drank, chatting about everything they could, enjoying each other’s company. They never ran out of things to talk about, and they both hoped they never would. Once Dean paid for dinner and dessert which had consisted of an incredibly rich chocolate cake, they took a stroll through the park to get to the car. It was a pleasant night, not blazing hot like it had been during the day, with a light, cool breeze. Y/N kept looking over at Dean, dressed in his best dark jeans, a light blue shirt and his good boots, proving that he always looked incredible.

Their hands were intertwined as they walked, stealing kisses and touches from each other as they made their way to the car. They could barely ever keep their hands off each other, but Dean was being extra lovey and Y/N had begun to wonder what he was up to.

“Ready for the next thing?” he asked, as he sat in the car, turning the ignition on.

“Absolutely” she replied, smiling brightly.

“Good” he said, before he reached over and opened the glove compartment, taking out a tie he had stashed in there. “Turn around, sweetheart.”

“Oh my god, Dean, what kind of thing do you planned?” she asked, her eyes widening as she saw the tie.

“It’s nothing like that, Y/N” he replied, as he nudged her to turn. “Unless you want it to be” he smirked, even though she had turned and couldn’t see him.

He wrapped the tie around her head, covering her eyes before tying it at the back.

“Is this really necessary?” she asked, pouting her lips.

He chuckled, leaning in and kissing them. “Yes.”

He pulled out his phone and sent a quick message before he started the Impala. The engine roared to life, before he put it in drive and made his way down the road.

They hadn’t been driving long, but Dean had taken several turns in the last few minutes. Y/N was confused as to where they were going but didn’t say anything. She knew he had a knack for surprising her, and she didn’t want to spoil that for him.

Dean quickly pulled up outside his newly renovated, two-storey house. He shut off the engine, just as he saw two figures walk out of the house. He got out of the car and smiled at Charlie and Meg who waved at him, before quietly making their way down the driveway and towards Charlie’s car. He waited until they had completely driven away before walking around the front of the car and opening the passenger door.

“Can I take this off now? What took you so long to get here from the other side?” she asked, starting to get a little suspicious now.

“Y/N, you gotta relax” he laughed, as he turned her around and held onto her shoulders, guiding her up the sidewalk, after he had locked the car.

He walked her up the path in the still-to-be-finished garden, which she wouldn’t be seeing at that moment. He carefully led her up the porch stairs, making sure she didn’t trip with her heels on. He opened the door and led her in, her heels echoing on the hardwood floors.

“Dean, what’s going on?” she asked, impatiently as she heard her shoes on the floors.

“Just one more second” he replied, as he moved in front of her and guided her through the hallway, past the living area and into the middle room. When he stopped, he felt his heart beating wildly in his chest.

“Okay… ready?” he asked, holding onto the tie being used to blindfold her.

“Yes” she replied, somewhere between exasperated and excited.

Dean laughed to himself, as he moved in front of her. “Okay. 1… 2… 3…”

He counted down and opened the knot, dropping the blindfold. He watched her eyes flutter open, smirking as they immediately widened when she realized where she was. She let out a loud gasp, her eyes flitting to every part of the room, lit up with candles everywhere.

Y/N couldn’t believe her eyes as she looked around the room, turning in circles to see every part of it. The hardwood floors, the beautiful dining table that she loved from one of her magazines, a large archway leading to the living area, still to be furnished. However, the thing that got her immediately was the huge kitchen. It was her dream kitchen, with a big island bench in the middle, a beautiful stove and oven, the cabinets painted a dark shade of green with gold handles, and marble countertops. There was a picture window in the kitchen with a ledge, with an empty glass box for her herbs.

Y/N looked back at Dean, his smirk wide as he bit his lip, gaging her reaction. She laughed as she launched herself into him, wrapping her arms around his neck. She felt tears prick her eyes as she shook her head.

“You like?” he asked, rubbing his hand down her back.

She pulled away slightly to look up at him. “Like?” She shook her head, as she looked around again. “Dean… I’m speechless. I-I… I absolutely love it.”

“Okay, good, because it’s still not quite done. I left a few things like the living area and painting unfinished, so they we can decide that stuff together.”

“It’s all perfect, and it’s going to be even more perfect once it’s completely done. Dean… it’s beautiful. It’s… it’s my dream house” she choked up, not being able to talk.

There were large windows in the living area, and large French doors that led out to the covered porch, and then the backyard.

“Everything’s done, just needs furnishing and your touch. Master suite is done but not furnished. Guest room’s done and we can put your bed in there for now, but I left the other two rooms unfurnished too… for… well, you know” he muttered, his cheeks turning red. He was already thinking about how their future kids.

She smiled through tears, leaning in and kissing him, feverishly. “I love you. I love that you put everything into this for yourself, for me… for our future family.”

My love is strong

With you there is no wrong

Together we shall go until we die, my, my, my

He leaned in and kissed her again, wrapping his arms around her waist as he pulled her deeper into the kiss.

“That’s a lot of candles” she laughed when she pulled away.

“Thank Charlie and Meg for that. They wanted to help make tonight special for you” he told her, smiling as he kissed her softly again.

“For us” she playfully corrected him.

He chuckled, nodding. “Yeah. Us.”

He looked down at her and Y/N smiled at him, squinting slightly as she noticed something different in his eyes. She couldn’t quite place it but it didn’t seem like it was a bad thing.

An inspiration is what you are to me

Inspiration, look, see

Y/N slowly pulled away from him and smiled as she walked away, going into the kitchen. She ran her hand over the countertops, opening cabinets and drawers, smiling the entire time. Dean was glad she had taken a moment to do that, as he took a deep breath, nervously touching his back pocket to his jeans. He smiled as he watched her; the dream he had so many times over the years was finally taking shape. She looked up at him and frowned, seeing his nervous stance as he stood there in the room. She walked over to him, placing her hands on his chest. He gulped as he looked down at her, a small smile tugging at his lips.

“Dean… are you okay?” she asked, her voice slightly scared.

“I’m okay” he nodded, as he took her left hand in his and brought it to his lips, kissing it. “In fact, I’m better than okay. I’ve been better than okay since you came into my life.”

She smiled at him, feeling the same way for him.

And so today, my world, it smiles

Your hand in mine, we walk the miles

“You came here and changed everything; you turned everything upside down in the best way possible, sweetheart. You made me realize what I was missing. You’ve been everything I’ve ever needed in my life. You’ve supported me and actually cared about what I do. I don’t know what I did to deserve you, but I’m so glad I have you. You saved me” he told her, pulling her in close as he looked into her eyes.

“Dean” she sighed, looking up at him with all the love she had for him.

“I want us to make a life here. I want us to be a family. I promise you, right here, right now – I’ll always take care of you. I’ll never hurt you, or make you feel you’re less than what you are. You’re beautiful, strong, smart, kind and caring. You love everyone around you, and they know that you’ve got their back. I know you’ve been hurt in the past, but I promise… I’ll never do that to you. I never thought I’d get to have this; a beautiful woman to make a life with, but I know I don’t want it with anyone else but you” he said, as he moved back slightly.

Y/N’s eyes widened as Dean crouched down, getting down on one knee, her hand still in his.

And thanks to you it will be done

For you to me are the only one

“Dean” she gasped, as fresh tears welled in her eyes.

“I want you for the rest of my life, sweetheart. I love you, more than I ever thought possible to love someone. I promise I’ll love you for the rest of our lives” he smiled, his voice shaking with emotion. He reached into his back pocket and took out the little black box, opening it to reveal a beautiful, sparkling modest diamond ring in a platinum setting.

Y/N sobbed as she cupped her other hand over her mouth, the tears running down her face. She looked Dean in the eyes as he spoke, seeing everything he promised her, right there in his beautiful green orbs.

“Y/N Y/L/N… will you marry me?” he asked, his heart feeling like it would explode any minute.

Y/N pulled her hand away from her mouth, laughing through tears. “Yes! Yes, Dean, yes!”

Dean beamed, his smile brighter than ever before, as he took out the ring from the box and slowly slipped it onto her ring finger. He stood up, slightly off balance as she jumped on him, wrapping her arms around his neck. His automatically went around her waist, lifting her up, her heeled feet dangling above the ground. She pressed her lips to his, kissing him hard and passionately.

“I love you” she said, between kisses. “I love you, so much.”

“I love you too, sweetheart” he whispered, unable to stop kissing her. “Fuck, I love you so damn much.”

Happiness, no more be sad

Happiness – I’m glad

Y/N pulled away to look into Dean’s eyes, her face level with his. She leaned her forehead against his, tears still running down her face. Dean leaned in and kissed them away, smiling at her. She looked down at her ring, her smile beaming as bright as the diamond.

“It’s so beautiful” she said, wiggling her finger against the light of the candles in the room.

“It’s was my mom’s” he told her, smirking. “When I told her that I was planning on proposing, she gave it to me.”

Y/N was shocked as she shook her head. “She wanted you to give this to me?”

“Yeah, Y/N. She loves you; we all do. You’re a part of our family. She wanted you to have it… I want you to have it” he explained, looking into her eyes with all the sincerity of the situation.

“But, Eileen…” Y/N shook her head, not understanding.

“Sam bought his own ring back then, because he told mom when she offered hers that I should be the one to give it to someone. Who knew it would take this long to find the one woman worthy of it, but here we are” he said, smiling down at her.

Y/N choked out a sob, as fresh tears started. “I love it. I love you, Dean. I’m so happy.”

“Me too” he said, feeling his eyes getting misty.

They stood there in each other’s embrace, in the middle of the room, unable to stop kissing and touching each other. They weren’t sure how much time had passed. All they cared about in that moment was each other. However, Dean slowly put her down on her feet and took her hand, leading her across the room and up the wood staircase. He walked her slowly down the hallway once she admired the space near the landing, knowing that it would make a nice space for their future children. He led her past the rooms and into what would be their bedroom, smirking as he saw a few candles there too, blankets on the carpeted floor and a few throw pillows.

Dean turned to Y/N and pulled her close to him, leaning down and kissing her, feverishly. They slowly undressed each other as Dean laid her down on the blankets, her head on one of the pillows. Dean moved within her, wrapped tightly in her embrace, as they made love in their new home for the first time.

As they laid back against the pillows and basked in the afterglow, Dean leaned in and kissed her again, smiling against her lips as they continued their passionate exchange.

It wasn’t the first, and it certainly wouldn’t be the last.

There would be many more for years to come, as it held the promise of a lifetime together.

If the sun refused to shine

I would still be loving you

When mountains crumble to the sea

There will still be you and me

[thegeminisage]

what do you think are some of the biggest pieces of evidence for cas being ace? i've watched so much of the show in the past month that it all blurs together, lol, so i can't remember many specific scenes. i do remember "i'm utterly indifferent to sexual orientation" (though that wasn't about his own orientation) and cas' discomfort at idea of sleeping with women at the bordello in 5.03... anything else you can think of? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts!

rubs my hands together okay a List yeah i can do a list

wait actually first i wanna say that the biggest reason is because i’m asexual and i said so 0:) like i know that sounds a joke and it is a little bit but SERIOUSLY it’s just a general Aura or what the fuck ever about people. you know how sometimes a friend group formed in teenage years will one by one realize they’re all queers and they just grouped together organically? ace people are like that too. many of my closest friends have been aspec and i didnt even know that when i met them, THEY didn’t even know. but like if you asked me to list the ten people i was closest to over my life the huge majority would be aspec like me. we find each other In The Wild. so when i say he’s ace because i said so like i’m saying I’m Ace And I Can See Him. He Is Ace Because I Said So. my ace-dar is EXCELLENT

okay anyway with that out of the way here’s your actual list. obviously much of this can be a point in favor of many different readings of cas (and i’m not saying those can’t be true at the same time as ace cas!), but i’m ace and he’s ace and that’s what this post is about so i’m focusing on the ace parts. thank you.

list of ace cas evidence:

in general cas has a lot of trouble connecting with humanity at first which is an ENORMOUS ace mood

when dean cracks in the 4.01 deleted scene “yeah i have that problem with women” (after cas talks about the difficult in finding a vessel that can contain him) cas absolutely does not get that joke. we were having ace cas moments right from the get-go

it’s shown as early as 4.02 that cas doesn’t understand personal space. this is him not getting one single thing about human intimacy works and that he’s overstepping a boundary. it’s not just that he’s an angel (though that’s some of it) he just doesn’t intuitively understand physical stuff like that

that dean/anna kiss in 4.10. LOOK AT HIS FACE. that’s a face that says “i had no idea this is how humans were intimate with each other” and also “do i want to try that?” answer: maybe. dean’s very pretty. but something about it just feels like he’s going “whoa i never even CONSIDERED that” - like that to be sexy with the humans he’s into just didn’t occur to him

i know you said so already but WOW 5.03 brothel scene. THEEE ace cas moment

i’d also like to take a moment to tip my hat to 5.04. almost every aspec will have had a period of frustration and self-loathing where they thought at least once about maybe just having sex they weren’t into as a way to be “fixed” or to prove something. when aspecs are at their lowest and most broken, they are having sex they do not want to have. and when cas is at his lowest and most broken (in 5.04 AND 9.03, thank you), what is he doing? having sex! it’s just Interesting to me that the only times cas fucks is when he’s literally in the absolute worst points in his entire life 

also, i’m getting out of order here, but that thing in 9.03 was absolutely rape. the way he talked about it after was THEEE most comphet bullshit i’ve ever seen. “that was nice.” “she was...sooo hot.” dean winchester can’t fool me and neither can cas thee tiel. 

i know everyone was uncomfortable with the cherub in 5.14 but cas was SUPER uncomfortable. “no one likes it” yeah that’s cause he’s not a big touchy-feely dude 

i actually really hate that porn scene in 6.10, but it is a classic “i don’t get it” moment + a side of “monkey see monkey do” later when he decides to mimic it and kiss meg. she started it - he’s just going “oh yeah i remember watching that on TV - like this, right?” he’s pleased with himself for correctly mastering a form of human interaction, he’s not, like, horny. 

didn’t get the erectile dysfunction joke in 6.19

obviously, godstiel’s utter indifference to sexual orientation

strongly implied to be in a chaste marriage with his “wife” daphne when he was an amesniac

being repeatedly lobotomized in season 8 is its own can of worms. they were trying to make him straight. alas, it cannot be done

meg propositions him in season 8 and it takes him a bit to catch on. i don’t think accepting means he’s not ace, just that he’s interested in stuff humans do. would have been nice for his first time not to be with a psycho reaper who got him to trade his virginity for a pb&j :/

cas seemed REALLY nervous at the prospect of the date in 9.06, almost like it was something he had to steel himself to do - yet another weird part of human life he was resigning himself to, especially after metatron told him “go find a wife and have some babies” when his grace was taken

cas in season 10 is UTTERLY oblivious to hannah’s advances, even the ones that include nudity (and his own nudity at one point lol), and when he finally catches on he lets her down in the most awkward way possible

in season 11 he says he’s gonna take dean’s temperature and doesn’t see how that’s weird lol

he never got to truly speak to dean about his weird “””attraction””” to amara but i like to think he would have been equally confused

in season 12 in the hotel room where an orgy had clearly just taken place dean snickers and picks up the panties but cas is totally oblivious

ALSO completely oblivious when the waitress hits on him in season 12

this is a little bit of a stretch, but despite being named as jack’s “real” father, his relationship with kelly, his ostensible baby mama by proxy, seemed INCREDIBLY platonic to me. like they were such good buds! but he never had any of that romantic chemistry with her - there were no lingering notes or touches or whatever. he just wasn’t interested in that same way. 

exasperated with gabriel and talking about porn stars in season 13 lol

canonically, castiel spent seasons 4-?? falling in love with dean, but he never made a move on him physically - yeah yeah the CW is homophobic but i like to think that most of castiel’s Urges where dean is involved are not in fact of a sexual nature. he wants to be close to him and important to him more than he wants to fuck him. you can long for someone in the ace way without longing for them sexually yk

this is part of why i actually really liked the 15.18 confession - the happiness was in the being, or whatever. he was already WITH dean in almost every way that mattered (i wrote a fic about this). they shared secrets, they shared burdens, they lived together, they fought and worked together, they even raised a fucking kid together! cas was convinced he couldn’t have more than that but also he didn’t really NEED much more than that and thinking about how he had been with dean all along was what made him happy enough to literally die. yeah there’s a version of that scene where the reciprocation was enough to do it but they accidentally hacked it into an ace love scene so i will TAKE it

this concludes my list! i bet it’s a lot longer than u were expecting

edit: a few updates

SPN 15X17 Observations

Well, watching this week went pretty smoothly (and I was actually able to get my little bluetooth keyboard thing to talk to my tablet so I was able to watch on my big TV screen and type up notes fairly easily. :) 

And just to clarify, sometimes my notes as I took them were VERY brief, and in some cases I’ve gone back and added in a few details or explanations to make clear what I meant by what at the time. 

I’ve also come to the conclusion that I don’t always remember to take notes, especially if Important Things are happening. (Do people even like the notes section? Or would you just prefer reading my odd takes on everything after the fact?) 

Anyway, here’s what I have for 15X17 “Unity”. Well, I do have more thoughts drifting around, but I’m always concerned that I’m going on too long as it is. *LOL*  (Under the cut for length and spoiler aversion)

Okay, going in I’ve heard rumors that this is a “Sam Heavy” episode, so we’ll see. *fingers crossed* 

- wow, is Chuck starting in on this world already?

- Silent treatment.

- I wonder if she’s guessed.

- fuck you Dean!

(but I’m not surprised. it just confirms what I’d already suspected about how Dean really feels about Jack.)

Commercial Thoughts:

Yeah, so, I’m firmly in Sam and Cas’ camp here. Jack may not be family to Dean, but he is to them. He’s their Son. 

I also think that though he hasn’t talked about it, Sam regrets his part in the Drama Coffin plan involving Jack last season. Think it’s one of those cases where he realized too late he was on the wrong side, and he doesn’t want to be there again.

As for Dean… I get that he wants to see the people he cares most about make it out of this. (Sam and Cas.) And I get he’s doing the tunnel vision thing. I think he knows that Sam’s right but he won’t let himself admit it.

- Wow….. The fanangels are kinda creepy.

- They’ve lost all their nuance with Chuck. Or my theory is right and Chuck has actually shifted darkside.

- Oh wow…. Amara is really going to bat here.

Commercial Thoughts:

Still not sure how much she’s (Amara) really guessed. She’s acting as though the whole “trapping him” idea is still a go, but what she’d said to Dean, as pointedly as she did, it seemed like maybe she suspected what was really going on and was still trying to give him the option to go a different way.

And even if this is Chuck having shifted dark, it could still be written with more nuance than this crappy villain schtick.

I mean, even in S11 when he’s all but given up on humanity and existence and was going to let Amara win, it was written with there being a depth to him about it.

- Don’t know if Dean’s trying to convince himself that he doesn’t care as deeply to make this easier or what.

- HOw is ADAM still alive?! And she’s an angel?

- Interesting behavior for an angel. *LOL*

- “Then he moved on to our sons.” Hints of Cain and Abel?

- Okay, so the angel kept him alive. (Sure, I can buy that.) 

- Pretty Crystals!

- He’s (Dean) heard those lines before. And Dean’s feeling uneasy about it.

- Amethyst! (Sorry, always had a thing for Amethyst and it’s my birthstone)

- (oh, okay, all of them)

- Ewww….. Open heart surgery

- Rib!

- Dean doesn’t like being rail-roaded.

- Talk time.

- I don’t like this…… (Jack using the rib and starting the suicide-bomb process.) 

Commercial Thoughts:

Okay, so, what Dean said, I’m glad he said it. And I have been getting hints of that feeling from him the whole season, about feeling disconnected because of what they found out about Chuck and their lives. I just… I still think he’s willfully blinding himself to what’s really going on. That even this version of “Free Will” is a script that he’s following. (Well, I think he’s starting to have misgivings about that.)

- Uh-oh! Ideas! 

- I love two researching nerds!

- Were we supposed to understand the Latin? *LOL* I caught “Mortem” in there a few times.

- Yey door!

- “your internal compass is functioning perfectly”

- I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!

- Who dat?

- Dead someone or other

- W section.

- Reapers maybe?

- Who’s thinning the ranks?

- Empty!Meg!

- Sam is good! (At bluffing the hell out of an ancient cosmic being.) 

- IT’S A LITTLE LATE TO STOP IT!!!!

Commercial Thoughts:

*FREAKING OUT!!!*

Jack already started it! OG!Adam said that once started the reaction couldn’t be stopped.

Okay, deeper thoughts. Everyone’s playing chess. Still. The game is just bigger.

OG!Adam wants God dead because of stuff that happened. And Billy is following his plan? (Did I get that right?) The plan will make Billy the next God. (Not surprised there honestly.) Her world will be a lot more “orderly” no doubt.

The Empty just wants to sleep. (Honestly, can relate.) 

But everyone’s just using them all as gamepieces again. Dean’s getting that feel from things OG!Adam and Whatserfaceangel said. Sam knows now too. They’re still stuck in someone else’s story. They’re still not gaining true “Free Will”. I’m hoping that the route they take will actually get them off this train track.

- DUDE - WHAT (was in reference to Dean pulling a gun on Sam)

- Go Sam! He’s not letting this one go. (Referring to my feelings on Sam feeling bad about Jack and the Drama Coffin thing from way before, and him NOT settling for Dean’s plan this time, him sticking to his guns and saying what he feels and taking action.) 

- Chuck played her (Amara) too.

- Not again! (Oh Jack, will this forever be your fate?)

- FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!

Holy shit! That episode!

Okay, it actually did a good job of wrapping up a lot of ideas. Like, big-picture ideas that have been themes throughout the run of the show. 

Also, apparently this was the only world where Cas and the Winchesters broke the mold? Didn’t play by their roles?

Also, minor point but it made me happy: Chuck pointed out how it’s Sam who needed to find things out. Sam who kept digging. I made mention of it last episode how Billy kept going to Dean, because he was easier for her to manipulate. But Sam asks more questions. I think part of it is what Cas said about his internal compass. I think another part is his experiences. He’s been the brunt of the cosmic plot-lines a LOT of the time. So he does keep asking questions because of all the times he hadn’t and things went badly. (Like end of S4 with killing Lilith.) 

And let me be clear, it’s not that I think Dean is dumb. He isn’t. And he and Sam both make decisions a lot based on their feelings. (Sometimes it’s all you have to go on.) But he’s shown a tendency in the past several years especially to be more likely to make them based on anger. And he doesn’t get called on it often. And I don’t know if this is TOO meta (is that even a thing with this show anymore? *LMAO*) but I feel like part of that is written into the script. Of their world. Even when Dean’s wrong he’s often proven “right” by the narrative. He very rarely is made to face up to his mistakes. (Not saying he never is. But it definitely doesn’t seem to happen as often.) And I’m wondering, is that because up till now, he was Chuck’s favorite? We saw that Chuck can manipulate a LOT of things. And events, and even some people. 

How often have we noticed and commented on how the Narrative backs Dean up so much of the time, even when he might be in the wrong? Or even just questionable? Or morally grey? How much of that is possibly now supposed to be due to Chuck’s meddling? Because I’ve also seen it mentioned (and have also noticed) that although Sam winds up the “wrong one” a lot via the narrative, he’s actually HAD to learn and grow because of that. But because Dean is rarely shown as wrong, he hasn’t had to, and his character has stagnated a lot in the last several seasons. Of course, in reality, that’s due to the writing/show-running/powers-that-be making those decisions, but in-show could it possibly be something to do with Chuck? Maybe at first because he liked Dean more? But as time grew on, and he kept trying to set up his Cain and Abel plot with them, maybe it was to reinforce Dean’s self-image that he’s Right? 

And also by contrast, we had the end of last season where so many of Sam’s decisions which had been made with best intentions and best information/resources at the time wound up blowing-up in his face. As if to say "Ha-HAH! That's what you get for thinking you could lead people! That's what you get for thinking you could save Jack! That's what you get for thinking someone like Nick could be redeemed! That's what you get for talking your brother out of the Drama-Coffin plan!" It felt like it was specifically intended to make him severely doubt his own judgement. And it worked. After all that shit went down, one thing after another, culminating with their mother's death, he didn't trust himself. He didn't believe in himself. So he put all his trust in Dean. And Dean was full of RAGE. (I don't blame him. His Mom has been a keystone of his life, even when she wasn't there.) But Sam didn't give the objections he normally would have to Dean's plan to box-up Jack. Even though it was CLEAR how much he didn't like it. How wrong it felt to him.

Basically, what I’m trying to say is, I think Chuck has been nudging and manipulating a LOT of things in order to get the Winchesters to behave how he wants them to. 

IDK. My head is hurting from some of these meta thoughts. *LOL*

SO! Back to what happened in the actual episode.

I thought the format was interesting, focusing in on the different POV characters for their spans of the story until it all came together. (Wondering if this is going to continue into the next episode…) 

I liked that we got a lot of reveals about what is (possibly) really going on, in regards to the grand schemas. Because there are several at play here. But now we're at least getting glimpses of them. 

Even though we didn't see Billy, I thought the reveal about her plans were interesting, but definitely fit with her character as established so far. I know a lot of people are saying she's gotten drunk with her power or she's "turning evil" but I don't think that's the case. It's true that she hasn't told them everything about her plans, but that's because she's also using them as pieces in her game. But her goal is the same as it's always been since we first met her. She has ALWAYS been about the Natural Order. She never liked how the Winchesters (or anyone else) flaunted death again and again. So once she's in charge? Everyone and everything goes where they belong. The demons stay in hell, the angels stay in heaven, souls go where they're meant to, people from other universes go back (even if there's no universe to go back TO. Tough shit, they'd be dead anyway according to her) and those who have already died and been resurrected? They go back to wherever they should be. (At least, I THINK that was the implication made, with Sam asking Dean if he'd be willing to trade HIM to take-out Chuck. Sam was definitely realizing a LOT when Empty!Meg told him what Billy's plan was.) 

This isn't her turning Evil like has been done with Chuck. It's more, her becoming a more extreme version of what she already was. When she got her promotion, she found out a LOT more things. Including this option of events for taking Chuck out and putting things back to how they belong. And it even started with Dean's aborted Drama Coffin plan. Which eventually fails, because Sam, but it then leads to Jack sacrificing his soul to take out AU Michael, which eventually leads to Mary's Death and Chuck's opportunity to manipulate things more and so on and so forth until we wind up here. 

(Also, just wanna say, absolutely LOVED Rachel as the Empty again!) 

And also, having just watched that scene again, can I just say again how awesome Sam is? He straight-up told the Empty that even if he WAS lying, their best bet is to let him go with the book. And it couldn't really argue with that because he was right! (Well, if it had killed him then and there, Dean probably wouldn't have known right away and probably would have been able to carry out the plan. So there is that. Buuuuut none of them knew that either at the time.) 

And in general, I love how Sam just would NOT give up. This is the Sam Winchester I've come to love. He could feel in his bones that this plan was wrong so he was doing everything he could to not only stop it, but to find some other way to get what they truly wanted. 

I also loved his and Cas' interactions. They were supportive of each other and both were trying to find a way to save their son. (Dean has officially forfeited his Dad-Card in my book. Hell, in his book too.) Also, I remember hearing someone from production, or who was maybe on set or something mentioning something about the Holy Grail in this episode? Well, in that scene where Sam and Cas are looking through those old crates and trunks and boxes, when Cas finds the key Sam is holding this really old looking chalice. Wonder if that's supposed to be what that is. *LOL* I mean, the Spear of Destiny (or at least, the head of the spear) was there in the Bunker, so why not I guess? *LOL*

We didn't get a lot of Sam and Jack interaction, but I liked what little we had. Sam made it clear to Jack that he wants to save him. (I'm really hoping we get SOMETHING more of them in the next episode or two but... yeah. Not a lot of time left.) 

I could go on for some length about my feelings on Dean and how he's been this season. But I don't want this to turn into a fully anti-Dean rant. I will say though that I'd definitely gotten the impression before this that Dean has different categories of people he cares about, and in his mind, he also has them ranked according to how expendable they are. And I'm not just talking about Jack here, though he is a major part of it. But at the end of the episode when he and Sam are having it out, Dean says he's basically willing to sacrifice EVERYONE to get what he wants. 

(I don't think he's actually willing to sacrifice Sam for it though. And yes, I know, he was waving a gun in Sam's face. But I don't believe for a moment he had any intention of killing his brother. Not when Sam asking point blanc if Dean is willing to trade him for killing Chuck, and that seems to be what causes Dean to start listening to what Sam's saying. Also, in the past, Dean hasn't been above threatening people to get what he wants. Like with Kaia. Also in S8's "Trail and Error" when he and Sam were talking about taking out the hellhound, Dean pretty much said if Sam even tries to get close to it, Dean would shoot him in the leg. Now, we never got to see if he actually would have or not, but regardless, it was a case of Dean being willing to hurt Sam a little in order to protect him from something he saw as a bigger threat. In that case it had been taking on the trials. In this case, it would have been to win their shot at freedom. At least in Dean's mind. Not saying I approve! Just, I think that's where his mindset was.) 

And this is a far cry from the Dean who, just a few years ago was willing to be a kamikaze bomb in order to save the world. And yes, Dean has mentioned "Saving the world" this season too. And I'm sure he means that too. But when he was at his most emotional, what he was talking about wasn't saving the world and everyone in it. It was freeing him and Sam from being Chuck's entertainment. And he's willing to sacrifice nearly anyone to accomplish that. At least, he was up til now. I hope that they're going to give him a change of heart before the end because I really REALLY would like the show to end with me not despising Dean and what he's become. Yes, I'm a Sam-girl, but I do care about Dean too. 

Also, I feel bad for Amara and what wound up happening with her. Like many other characters, she fell victim to Chuck's manipulations, and now I'm guessing he's even stronger than before. But also, Chuck wasn't the only one manipulating her. And maybe if they, (Dean especially, since she had a soft-spot for him) had actually been trying to find another way earlier, she wouldn't have fallen to despair when finding out the truth. 

Aaaaaanyway, I think I've rambled enough about this episode as it is. Thank you to whoever actually bothers to read all of this. *LOL*

[ziracona]

What are the ilm survivors (+ Philip, anna, and brain-cell wielding legion) favorite foods and drinks, do you think?? If that's a big question then would you mind me asking a few Philip hcs, or hcs for Philip and Anna as friends?? :0

Haha, I actually answered this just the other day here in this ask, although just for survivors + Philip, so I’ll add Anna and Legion here. Brain-cell wielding I’m not sure if means Susie, or Susie and Joey, since I’ve said in the past Susie took the brains and left, and now the rest of them only have half a cell between them, that somehow Joey is constantly the one in possession of, so I’ll answer for both the more-good kiddos. : )

Anna is interesting. Kinda like my poor boy Mikey, she’s had very little experience with food that actually tastes good or complicated (tho she has had at least twice the taste experience he’s had because Michael’s had like--prison mush and nothing since age six TuT).  She’s never really had anything but meat and fruit and some vegetables, all with very little variance or flavoring, because she had no one to teach her how to cook, and experimenting with spices would not have been high on her to-do list if she’d even thought of it, so like, being in reality is insanely cool for her when it comes to food. First time eating pizza? A spiritual experience. Min’s curry? Heaven. Nea makes her empanadas, Quentin does some really nice spaghetti with garlic bread? She could die. Because she’s so excited and everything is so new, it’s hard to say she’s got one favorite? She really likes anything unusual to her, so anything complicated, spicy, sweet, with nice texture, etc. And she is constantly discovering new favorites all the time. She also loves just trying all kinds of things, because it’s such a wild new experience for her. That all said, she does really like meat still, just because physically, her body is used to a diet of almost nothing but fresh meat, berries, and the occasionally wild gourd, fern, onion, cabbage, etc kind of thing, and so that’s what it wants to make it feel healthy. One of her favorite stables is a kind of hommade jerky that Alan Smith makes, actually. It’s something he did forever ago, when Quentin was a kid, and does again on request, cutting meat into strips, seasoning, and smoking it to cure out in the shed. The kind of meat doesn’t really matter, so long as it’s lean, because it’s the seasoning and smoking process that makes it taste super good and also have a really pleasant texture. She also loves Garlic though like Anna is very happy about the sudden addition of garlic into her life. Garlic bread. Mmm. Likes chocolate a lot and especially kinds with like hard shells and melted insides, because complex texture is such a wonder to her. Is constantly fascinated by new things, like seeing a doughnut, or a milkshake, or cotton candy, or a pie, or really anything for the first time, and very game to try things out. Not polite at all though, because polite about food is not a concept she has learned, and will not hesitate to very visibly express if she thinks something tastes like crap. For drinks, water was like, the only thing she really had before, until Min and Quentin in the realm, and she similarly likes things that are complicated or weird in texture and sweet. She likes Hot Chocolate and thick, cold things like smoothies or slurpies and such especially. Again though, unfortunately for the girl, her body is like “Uhm. The fuck is this?” if she consumes copious amounts of refined sugar, so she has to kind of work up to stuff like a slushie or she’ll get incredibly sick, and it’s not fair. :’-]  She gets Alan to teach her how he makes his jerky once they’re not super weird around each other, and the first like “I’m going to try cooking now” thing she makes is using the oven to basically make a roast, but with the jerky spices and a shit ton of garlic, and it’s a weird taste, but not bad, just super unexpected for like, a cooked turkey, but she’s extremely proud of it because it’s way better than anything she’s ever cooked before and it was only her first attempt, and she likes to make this and slowly learn and make other things as gifts for her kids. She is very proud of her building knowledge, and fascinated by new details whenever she learns them when it comes to cooking or really any other learnable skill she knew next to nothing about before.

Susie’s favorite drink, hands-down, is Coca-Cola. She’s obsessed with it and loves it. Drinks one a day, almost religiously, as her treat to herself. If she drinks alcohol, it’s almost for sure going to be whiskey and coke if she’s picking, but honestly that’s only if she wants to be drunk. She prefers the taste of coke to any other drink on the planet and it’s worse mixed with alcohol, so for taste, she’d say “You can’t improve upon perfection!” with a big grin and crack open a classic cocacola. Meg doesn’t understand her obsession but thinks it’s ridiculously cute, and will always bring her one home. Likes to get her the glass bottle ones because they are class and more fun to drink from. Susie likes to keep one on hand and pour her two-liter into the glass coke bottle she keeps and drink if from that instead of a normal glass. Don’t judge her. It’s a small happiness she gives herself. She just really likes cocacola. Susie’s favorite food would be harder to pick, but it might be pizza? Wildly, she would be the first character to pick that. But really good pizza, like, with a high sauce radio and a brookly-style or not super thick type crust? Man, with the right toppings, it’s pretty heavenly. Also likes fresh peaches and nerds (as in the candy, lol). Don’t judge her.

Joey likes Dr. Pepper the most, and he and Susie have fought about it before, although his enjoyment does not even begin to match her unbridled love for her favorite. Favorite candy is Snickers. He likes the nuts in them and the consistency. Joey also likes pizza a lot, and it would be up there, as would just like, burgers with onion and a lot of lettuce and condiments, but if asked for his favorite food, would probably say spaghetti (another classic choice it is wild to me is only being picked here for the first time). Joey’s family was poor, and spaghetti is one of the few dishes that is super cheap to make and can actually still taste really good while costing nothing, so it was something his mom made a whole lot, and out of the regular dishes she made, it was by far his favorite. Probably pre-realm, he’d have said something else, like a specific type of burger or complicated sandwich--something he only rarely got--but post-realm, he misses his mom and his family lot, so her kind of spaghetti is his favorite as it reminds him of home. Meat is expensive, so she used to cook mushrooms into the tomato sauce she used instead, and he really loves the taste of it like that. They make it a little sweeter and add a nice cooked-carrot consistency to mouthfuls. Tells Jeff how to make it that way, and gets to have it pretty frequently. His second favorite is probably the homemade personal pizzas Jeff makes for them on request. Jeff is a really good baker, and he has a very good pizza crust recipe.  

There you have ‘em! (Also I’m totally happy to do Philip hcs or some about Anna and Philip as friends if you’d like those too ❛∀❛ )

Read it on AO3

------------------- The front door of “Pepper’s” burst open, nearly taking the bell off as it rattled and jingled the arrival of the only customer who could make an entrance like that. A cool breeze blew in behind Tony Stark, signaling what would soon be the start of crisp fall mornings, as he stumbled like a zombie towards the front counter, desperately clutching a well worn travel mug in his hands.

“Pepper, light of my life. Pepper, please you have to help me. I need you.”

He could feel Pepper roll her eyes as she moved around behind the counter, sizing him up as he collapsed onto the first empty stool.

“How much have you had today, Tony?” She raised her eyebrow at him and dared him to lie to her.

“Erm, this will be my first of the day…” It was mostly true. Her stare pierced down to his very soul and he squirmed awkwardly, the squeaks of the stool echoing beneath him. “Okay, the first of a normal person’s morning.”

“And how many before that?”

“Three but who’s counting? You know yours is the best anyways.” 

Pepper’s coffee couldn’t be beat. It made every other brew taste like dirty dish water in comparison to the rich, smooth blend that was sitting in a pot just barely out of his reach. It was tatamount to torture to be this close and his cup still so empty.

Pepper’s stern face came back to his vision as she leaned down towards him, hands gripping the counter. “You have a problem Tony.”

He smiled what he hoped was a charming smile. “My problem is this empty mug, Pep.”

She just shook her head in despair and sighed. “Say it with me Tony…”

“I am addicted to coffee,” they both spoke at the same time, Tony’s voice slightly manic over Pepper’s monotone. She did this to him on purpose, always on the days that he needed his fix the worst. Tantamount to torture, damn it. 

“There! I've admitted it. My shame is out there for all to know.”

She gazed into his eyes for a long time, before cracking a real smile, finally satisfied that she had made him suffer enough. Pepper swiftly turned back around and grabbed the coffee pot returning to slowly fill up his cup. 

“And I am sadly your enabler.”

Tony inhaled the steaming brew as his cup filled and immediately took a large gulp, not caring how hot it was. He had developed an immunity to hot coffee by now. The groan it elicited could have put Meg Ryan to shame.

 “You’re a godsend Pep and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.”

Pepper just shook her head and went back to what she was doing before he burst through the door. Over her shoulder she asked, “Where’s Pete?”

“Oh, you know,” he began, sneaking a blueberry muffin from the display in front of him. “He fell behind on my quest for coffee. Decisions had to be made, casualties were endured.”

It was that precise moment the door blew open again and the younger Stark entered looking frazzled. He wiped a bead of sweat from his brow, coming up to the counter and collapsing his books next to Tony. Tony jumped reflexively and nearly spilled the precious brown liquid all over his shirt.

“Man, for someone with short legs I’ll never get over how fast you can travel when properly motivated!” he exclaimed and Tony just shrugged, picking a couple of pieces from the muffin and sliding the rest down to Peter.

“Hey, we have the same genes so I would watch it if I were you.”

“Yeah, but I at least have the benefit of a few more years of growing to do.”

Tony frowned and nudged Peter’s shoulder. He took another sip of coffee as he evaluated the boy. “You’re being a terror this morning, let me help you out. Coffee?”

Peter nodded desperately. “Coffee.” 

Tony waved Pepper over, taking Peter’s Spiderman mug, a gag gift from last christmas, and holding it out beggingly before him. He jutted his bottom lip out and giving the red head what he hoped was his most pitiful look.

“Please ma’am, may I have some more?”

“Don't go on tour anytime soon, your Oliver Twist is terrible,” she deadpanned.

“So, I’ve heard. Please, it’s for Pete. He’s a growing boy.”

"You know coffee actually stunts your growth right?"

"Lies and slander, probably made up by tea drinkers." Tony shuddered in his seat for dramatic effect.

Pepper eyed him up and down. "Sure about that one? You seem to be missing a few inches."

Tony scoffed. "C'mon Pep, stop browbeating me and do it for the boy."

Pepper looked between the pair and Peter had joined Tony in giving his best wounded puppy look. The pair made a striking picture, their features mirroring the other so perfectly, one would be hard pressed to deny their relation. Looking at Peter especially though, Pepper felt that same protective urge stir inside her that she had when he was still just a child, those big doe eyes pleading for another sweet. She relented, as she always did, filling his mug to the top. 

Tony motioned to his now empty mug with a grin but she just gave him a pointed stare and put the pot back.

“Sorry, no refills to coffee moochers.”

“Aw, Pep don’t be like that. Just put it on my tab.”

“You don’t have a tab, Tony.”

“Well, I should.”

“Forget about it, you’re lucky you got what you did. I can’t enable you any further this morning.”

“This is oppression!”

Peter watched the exchange with a smile. It was old hat by now, the start of a thousand mornings for the Stark men. 

“Thank you, Ms. Potts!” he called out to her and took a large drink from his own mug, Tony looking on enviously.  Peter just ignored him and whipped out his cell phone, tapping a few buttons and bringing up a text thread.  

“So, check it out, I was texting Ned this morning and he said that the acceptance packets for Midtown were supposed to be sent out this week. We could be getting them as soon as friday! And I was looking at the uniforms online again and they’re really not that bad. I mean I can deal with the coats and ties for a bit if it means getting to take robotics…”

He eagerly shoved the phone into Tony’s face, scrolling through the stock photos of the school uniforms that they had already perused through a million times at home. His excitement was contagious and Tony smiled along with him and listened as he described the different classes that he was hoping to take. 

They had applied for the late fall term having completely missed the early fall registration deadline because Tony had stayed up all night on an inventing bender and passed out around six am, totally blowing through the morning alarm. Peter was a notorious heavy sleeper too, so neither stirred until well after the window for registration had closed. Tony felt awful but Peter had taken it all in stride.

The phone suddenly started buzzing in Peter’s hand, the Imperial March from Star Wars blaring across the small cafe making customers heads pop up and search out the cause of the disruption. Peter panicked and immediately declined the call from Ned, shooting him a quick text that he’d call him later, but it was too late and Pepper had already marched her way over to where he sat and eyed the phone he hastily tried to pocket.

“Peter, c’mon. Do you see the sign?” she asked turning around and pointing to the sign that boldly stated the cell phone free zone. 

“Oh, I know, sorry Ms. Potts! I was showing him the uniforms for Midtown and then Ned called, but I told him I’d call him back after I leave,” he started rambling nervously but Pepper cut him off with a wave as Tony snickered in the background.

“Don’t worry about it, just remember for next time.”

“Oh, of course,” he smiled so earnestly it was hard to even feign annoyance.

“So, Midtown,” Pepper began, settling back between the pair, pretending to wipe down the already clean countertops. “Did you get in finally?”

“We don’t know yet. Should be finding out this week. If it’s a small envelope we’re doomed, but a big envelope and you’ll be looking at Midtown class of 2020.”

“Well, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you,” she smiled and squeezed his hand affectionately. “You make it and I’ll make you that pie you always harass me to make out of season.”

Tony blanched. Pepper didn’t make concessions to anyone, even as doe eyed and innocent as Pete. “Um, okay, how come he gets the special treatment?”

“He’s more polite than you.”

“I resent that remark.”

“I can’t help the truth,” she shrugged and and headed to the other end of the bar to wait on a pair of blondes that walked in, looking very lost and out of place. Passerbys Tony, would wager.

“She’s in love with me,” he said with a matter of fact nod. Peter rolled his eyes so hard Tony worried they’d get stuck that way.

“I can tell by the way you both verbally assault each other every morning.” 

“It’s just a matter of time, I’m telling you. She can’t resist the Stark charm forever.”

“Is that what that was?”

“Hey, don’t you have a bus to catch?”

“Nah, I have a few minutes. I like to watch Ms. Potts dance circles around you.”

“And just for that one you have lost coffee privileges,” he said and reached over to snatch up Peter’s mug before he could even protest. Tony threw it back in one drink as Peter unsuccessfully tried to get it back.

“You’re getting me more, that’s not right stealing a man’s coffee like that.” Peter folded his arms across his chest and glared.

“Please, you’re still a boy, and no refills remember?”

“That’s only for you.”

Tony slid the mug over to bump against Peter’s school books. “Then I guess you should start working Pepper now for that next fix.”

Peter groaned and playfully shoved Tony as he stood up and made his way to beg for more lifeblood. 

Tony watched the boy go and felt the same immense pride and happiness swell in his chest that he always did when looking at Peter for too long. The kid was brilliant, maybe even more so than he was, only he was going to make something more of himself than a failed inventor moonlighting as an inn manager. He couldn’t dwell too hard on his own failings though. For the most part he was exactly where he wanted to be and it was sure as hell a much better enviornment for Peter to grow up in than that empty and foreboding Stark mansion. 

Though the money of that life would definitely have been a huge help. By Tony’s estimation it would take around $75,000 altogether to put Peter through Midtown and he had no idea where he was going to come up with that kind of dough. They had enough money put back to be comfortable where they were but it wouldn’t take long for it to be bled dry. He wouldn’t let Peter worry about that though. Tony would stand out on a corner selling himself if it meant the kid got the education that he wanted. Okay, so maybe it wouldn’t come to that particular extreme, but there was nothing that he wouldn’t do to ensure Peter’s continued happiness. 

A shrill laugh filled the air and brought Tony out of his daze. Peter still hadn’t returned and he looked around the small room searching for his curly bedhead. He spotted him at the end of the bar leaning back awkwardly, one of the leggy blondes from earlier practically sandwiching him against the counter. She had been the source of the laugh. Tony evaluated the scene and could tell that Peter was clearly uncomfortable as the woman looked at him like he was prey. 

Pepper shot concerned glances every couple of seconds but she was busy helping another customer, unable to come to his rescue. 

Tony hopped down from the stool and shoved his hands into his jean pockets as he approached.

“...cabin in the woods for the weekend. I’d really love it if you could join us too,” Tony caught the blonde saying in a suggestive tone as he approached.

Peter laughed nervously and rubbed his neck with the hand that wasn’t holding the newly refilled coffee.

“Is everything okay over here, Pete?” 

Peter’s eyes shot to Tony’s in relief and he scooted towards him subconsciously. The blonde turned towards Tony too at first with a look of disgust and annoyance at having her conversation interrupted but then she raked her eyes across Tony’s form appreciatively and her grin from before grew more predatory if it were possible.

“Yeah, I was just getting coffee from Ms. Potts when I was…”

“Accosted?” Tony supplied helpfully.

The blonde tsked. “Hi, I’m Christine.”

“Tony,” he said with a nod.

“Tony. I was just discussing with your little brother here, that I was just passing through on my way to a weekend retreat with a friend. I think it’d be really nice if you guys could join us. We’ll go hiking, make a campfire, maybe some skinny dipping at the lake,” she raised her brow suggestively and Peter’s face turned an impressive shade of beet red.

Tony’s mind hadn’t even got to processing that part of the conversation yet.

“Brother?” he asked and looked over to Peter, holding the laughter at bay. The thought seemingly finally permeated his understanding as well because then Peter was laughing and Tony was right there with him.

Christine stared at the duo blankly as they tried to get the laughter under control.

“She thinks…” Tony began.

“That me and you…” Peter continued.

“This always happens.”

The laughter finally stopped and they both straightened up, Tony turning to Christine and schooling his features back to what Peter called his serious face.

“Peter is not my brother.”

“He’s not?” Christine asked in confusion. She looked the duo over once more noting the similarities in eyes and facial structure. 

“Peter is my son.”

“Your son?” she gaped.

“According to the birth certificate,” Peter added, his confidence and joking manner returning at the shift in power of the situation.

Christine tried to recover from her error and squared her shoulders. “Well, the offer is still open. Father and son changes things a little but I do have a friend,” she motioned to a brunette that was sitting at a table glued to her cell phone an inch away from her face.

“Slow down, cougar town don’t let his height deceive you. Peter is 15 years old. You’ve been sexually harassing a minor for the last ten minutes.”

Christine’s eyes practically bulged from her skull and she backed away slowly, bumping into the table behind her. “I am so sorry, you look...and he looked…” she stuttered and snapped in front of her friends face a few times. “Jillian we need to leave.”

Tony had never seen such a hasty retreat in his thirty one years of life. He and Pete started laughing again and headed back to their original seats, Peter hastily grabbing his books from the counter and shoving them into his backpack.

“Well, that was fun,” he remarked and then threw an arm around Tony’s neck and giving him a quick squeeze. “Love ya, Dad. Star Wars marathon tonight?” Peter asked backing up towards the door with finger pointed at him. “You promised.”

“Original trilogy only,” Tony replied firmly.

“You’re such a snob.” Another eyeroll. Tony didn’t know how he didn’t get dizzy. “Take out from Joe’s and that new chinese restaurant?”

“Done.”

Peter smiled again and finally satisfied darted out the door and to the bus stop. Tony watched him run down the street until he couldn’t see him anymore, a grin still plastered to his face.The sound of coffee filling his empty mug caused Tony to whip around in wonder.

“I thought there were no refills?”

He folded his arms across his chest as Pepper just shrugged in response.

“Consider it a thank you.”

“For what?”

Pepper smiled sweetly and Tony got that fluttery feeling in his chest that always occurred when Pepper Potts smiled at him. He wanted to take a picture and frame it forever. She glanced to the table that Christine and her friend had vacated and then back to Tony and winked.

“For taking out the trash.”

He smiled back and took a long drink of the perfectly blended coffee. He didn’t care what jokes Peter made. That Stark charm was definitely wearing her down. Now if only they were close enough to ask her for a boatload of money to put his son through the school of his choice.

Tony did have other options.

He could call...them.

He would almost rather die though. Almost. They could definitely afford it and would almost certainly be thrilled to help their only grandson, but he didn't want to let them get their hooks in Peter and by extension himself. He spent so many years distancing himself from that life and proving that he didn't need them and their money. To come crawling back even for such a noble cause was painful. And who knows. Maybe Peter wouldn't even get in.

Shit. Who was he kidding? Peter was almost guaranteed to be admitted. He was his father's son after all.

Still. He could put off Howard and Maria a little longer.

Pulling out his phone he scrolled through his contacts. He had friends but none that he could impose upon like that.

There was one more person though. He scrolled down to the M's and his finger hovered over May's number. He and May had always retained a great friendship. They chatted often enough and she always made time to ask about and talk to Peter. If anyone would help him and not make him feel completely humiliated in the process it was May Parker. This was technically 50% of her responsibility after all.

She was Peter's mother.

I'm so happy I found your blog! Hercules holds a very dear place in my heart, too. I agree with you that it's underrated, like so many other actual classics that have been cast aside. I have vague memories of when it came out in theaters. Going to see it, and coming home with a cardboard box full of little Hercules treasures that I think were part of the premiere. Like many 90s Disney films, the soundtrack stands the test of time. I could go on forever, but I'm down to 8 characters, lol.

Awww, thank you so much! This movie means so much to me. I’m really glad that creating this blog has been so positively received by the Disney community here on tumblr. I was so anxious about doing it because most Disney blogs focus on all the movies or specific eras. And most of the ones that are one movie/franchise centric are for newer films that came out within the past decade (mostly Tangled and Frozen from what I’ve seen). So I was self conscious about making a blog for a Disney movie that is over 20 years old, probably isn’t in the conscience of the masses, and doesn’t have any new content coming. But in the end, the love was too strong and it won.

I just love Hercules so much. I honestly think it’s my favorite Disney movie. I’ve tried to deny that it’s my number one, but I really think it is. There’s just something so unique and unconventional about it compared to other Disney movies. While I do love all the animated Disney movies to a degree, my personal taste in favorites tend to gravitate towards the non-princess/fairytale/animal films (Hercules, Lilo and Stitch, Treasure Planet, and Atlantis to name a few). That feels very niche, but it is what it is and I know what I like.

And yes, Hercules is definitely underrated (not the most underrated but definitely up there). It’s so hard to find merch out there (especially in the parks) and Disney hardly ever acknowledges its existence. But that’s amazing that you got to see it in theaters. I really wish I did, but the first animated Disney movie I saw in theaters was Mulan a year later (I was 7). But I had the Hercules VHS (which I still have even now as an adult) and I remember having some Hercules toys (none of the dolls sadly). And I watched the animated series too ( rewatching that on Disney Plus has been such a treat!). I wish I wasn’t so young back then so I could have experienced it and actually remembered it.But anyways…that’s so cool! 

My obsession with Hercules didn’t really blossom until I became an adult though. In 2009, at the age of 18, I went to Disney World for the first time (I went twice that year actually). And it sparked this new love and appreciation for everything Disney that wasn’t really wasn’t a big part of my life since childhood. But after that I took a deep dive into a lot of the Disney movies that I honestly hadn’t watched since I was a child. And I don’t know why, but Hercules just really resonated with me and I loved it so much. Then that love ran its course and died down for about 10 years….but I still loved it and Disney. But this past summer I did a rewatch of most of the animated Disney movies (from Snow White to Wreck It Ralph 2) before going to Disney World back in September (which has been an almost annual thing for me since 2009). I reconnected with my Hercules love and it made me really happy. And now I’m like a hardcore fan. So I decided to make this blog. As a place where I could fangirl about it, but also share it with others and contribute to keeping whatever love there is for Hercules thriving.

And I’m really glad that other people love this movie as much as I do. Just everything about it is so good. The style, the colors, the animation, the music, the characters and their development (Herc and Meg at least), the script, the story, the voice acting…..everything! I don’t care that it’s not perfect. I don’t care that it obliterates Greek mythology. I don’t care if it’s a weird movie to be obsessed with. I don’t care that I am a grown adult obsessed with a “kid’s” movie. It’s a feel good movie, it’s relatable, and it’s inspiring. 

I just adore Hercules so much and could gush about it all day. Please come talk to me about it anytime. I’m always willing. :)

My Decade in Books

@brightbeautifulthings​ thank you for tagging me!! 💕💕

The rules: respond to the prompt “my decade in books” however you want, & then tag some ppl! I chose a book or series to define each year of the decade, some w/a little description. You can do that, or make up your own response

Okay so this is going to be pretty hard. I was going to do it by what book I read that year, but I didn’t track what books I read that far back. Instead, I’ll write about a book I read that was released that year, even though I most likely did not read it when it was released. Hopefully, I have a book for each year of the past decade!

2010 - So I tried to track this to see if I actually remembered what I read this year, and I was in my last year of elementary school, which is wiiiild, considering I’m in my third year of college now. I think I was reading a lot of different books about vampires during this time. Anyways, a book I read that was released this year was Linger by Maggie Stiefvater, which is the second book of The Wolves of Mercy Falls series. I remember I absolutely loooooved this trilogy, and the characters were pretty great, but I think if I decided to read this now, I wouldn’t get past the first book. 

2011 - One of my favorite books from this year was Abandon by Meg Cabot. I love retelling especially when they’re about mythology. Unfortunately, I didn’t finish this trilogy, and I have always wondered how it ended. Another favorite from this year was The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater, it got me out of one of my biggest reading slumps. Another one from this year, but one that I read rather recently is The Night Circus  by Erin Morgenstern; it wasn’t exactly what I expected, but definitely one I enjoyed reading.

2012 - It may not have been originally published this year, buuuut the version I read was, so maybe this is cheating, but oh well lol. One of my favorites ever, The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. Like I said, I love mythology related stories, and this one was no different. The characters, plot, and romance? All amazing. The ending was sad, and there were definitely some tears shed on my part, but it just made it all that much better. 

2013 - I started high school this year! I don’t think I was reading much during this time tbh, except for stories that I read that were assigned to me. Which ones those were, I can’t really remember, but of the few that I read I liked them all except for one. Enough of that though, a book released from this year that I read was The Ocean at the End of the Lane  by Neil Gaiman. The first book by Gaiman that I have ever read, and I was not disappointed, I was a bit creeped out though. 

2014 - Favorites from this year was To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before by Jenny Han and A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray. Honestly, some of my favorite romance YA novels I have ever read. 

2015 - I can’t remember what I was reading during this year, but some books that were released this year that I found memorable were Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard and Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo. I was a bit hesitant to read Red Queen, but my friend gave it to me as a birthday gift, and I’m very glad she did because it was amazing. Six of Crows is something I read not too long ago, I did find it a bit daunting but it was so well written that I hardly realized how long it was. 

2016- Again, I can’t remember what I read this year, and I think that has a lot to do with the fact that I probably wasn’t reading much. Most memorable from this year was Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch. I read this after visiting Italy, and it made me like the book all that much more. 

2017 - I did read a lot more this year, than I had in the past few. One of my favorites from this year was Caraval by Stephanie Garber. I definitely felt the magic with this book. Another favorite was Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman. I had to branch out from Greek and Roman mythology at some point lol. Renegades by Marissa Meyer was also very memorable. 

2018 - I started my blog this year!! I started tracking what I read from this point on and  I was reading a lot more than I ever was. There were so many books from this year that I absolutely loved and a few of them are The Cruel Prince by Holly Black, Circe by Madeline Miller, and last but not least is If We Were Villains by M.L. Rio. 

2019 - I didn’t reach my reading goal from this year, but the books I did manage to read ones that I truly enjoyed. Most of the books I read this year, were actually released this year!! Some of my favorites were King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo, Storm and Fury by Jennifer L. Armentrout (I sincerely enjoyed all the Supernatural references), and Wicked Saints by Emily A. Duncan

I’m tagging @astaircaseofbooks @thgbookprincess @thebookfangirlstuff @backlogbooks @anaisreading and anyone else who wants to join in!

[ghostmaggie]

hey so in your MKAT post (which you’re 100% correct about) you also mention you’ve had some issues with RT in the past. i’m fairly new in the fandom and also watch his other show iZombie, but i wanted to ask what issues they were?? i like to be informed about the media i consume lmao

Oof okay so I'm on mobile and therefore this will probably be more rant-y and opinion-based than you might be looking for, so I invite anyone with opinions or sources or thoughts or contradictions to reply or shoot me asks and I'll share them (plus I'm curious of other thoughts) but,,

Idk if this was clear in my original post, but my issues are mainly contained within the actual show as opposed to things about him irl, because idk that much outside of secondhand info, so take it with a grain of salt I guess, lol

Also, I feel like I need to say that this is really negative about vmars--which, to be clear, is a show I love dearly--and I know sometimes I like to avoid negative commentary on things I enjoy because it gets stuck in my head and ruins my enjoyment. So if that's you, feel free to skip this! I wont be offended and you shouldn't feel bad about it! It's also just one person's opinion, and I'm most definitely not always right :)

So mostly setting aside the brand new season because I have no clue how to talk around spoilers effectively, in short (with spoilers up through the movie and maybe some spoilers for the books and new season, I cant really tell at this point):

(Editor's note post finishing writing: it's not even all my thoughts, but it's not short. Sorry.)

RT shares in the grand tradition of showrunners I do not care for along with Steven Moffat and Jason Rothenberg, for many parallel reasons. Moffat thinks hes cleverer than he really is, jroth is a douche about romance and character motivation, and both are smug jerks who drove me away from shows I used to love, so.

So number one I guess would just be the sense that he really fucking does not care about the fans. It's especially egregious, as I've seen others point out, when he literally would never have gotten his show back (after driving it to the ground) without the LITERAL MONEY donated by devoted fans. I'm not saying you have to do things just because fans want them, but to go out of your way to do things you know fans will hate just to be contrary is,, yeah.

He thinks he's so very smart, and yet his plots are riddled with holes and inconsistencies (hello, Moffat). It speaks, to me, of a lack of respect for everyone involved--fans, writers, actors, crew, critics, just everyone. Write down a timeline. Something. Try.

One of my bigger issues, though, is that the misogyny in vmars is just...beyond appalling. Not just narratively--i understand representing the flaws in society, I guess, but veronica is honestly one of the most misogynistic parts of the show, and she is never ever ever held accountable for it. Ever. The show never sends the message that she's wrong for the atrocious way she treats, to name a few, Madison, Kendall, Gia, and even Carrie during the s1 plot with Adam Scott. The carrie thing is especially fucked up bc iirc the narrative only condemns her for guessing the victim wrong. (As another note, her treatment of other marginalized groups or basically anyone she ever treats badly--logan, Keith, Wallace, weevil, the list goes on--is rarely or never narratively critiqued. Veronica mars can do no wrong, apparently, even when she's obviously wrong.)

She's far from the only example of misyogny, of course--duncan's s2 dream about madonna/whore meg/veronica comes to mind in screaming color, yet donut is somehow treated like a prince forever and ever and v's lost true love even though he's basically the scum of the earth (pardon, my true feelings are coming out a little here).

Somewhat connected is, of course, the show's treatment of rape in general (hi, season 3), but especially Duncan's rape of veronica. I'm still not over the way they walked it back to "not a rape" and took back holding him accountable. I live for all the fanfiction that addresses it, because at least there people remember that, whether he "thought she could consent" or not, he literally thought she was his sister and didnt know. That's uninformed consent at best, babe!

And if that wasn't bad enough, to "resolve" that plotline and then come back at the end of season 2 to be all, "jk! You WERE raped, by SOMEONE ELSE [too]! Enjoy that reenabled trauma, and some chlamidya to boot!"

Speaking of retconned instances of sex, how about that piz/veronica tape that suddenly became full on sex in the movie? Fun times.

My favorite bout of misogynistic writing, you ask? That would have to be "narratively-enforced nicest girl in school who stands by her friends and is sweet and loyal becomes a raging hell bitch yet also the representation of misogynistic virginal innocence because she was knocked up and abandoned by Mr. Narratively-Claimed-to-be-Perfect-but-Actually-the-Worst and completely undergoes a 180 personality change then dies for plot reasons" because holy fucking shit.

Okay sorry I got way more into that than I meant to. I'll try to wrap up.

RT does a very jroth job of treating fans like shit for giving a shit about a romantic relationship he created. He acts like fans are a bunch of stupid girls for caring about romance, but then pushed it at every level of promo to reel us back in. Make up your mind, asshole. It's desperately unfair to bait fans with romantic promo (even in the form of an inane and ooc love triangle) and then snap back with "oooh it's noir, shut up about the romance!"

If that's how you feel, stop making every other plot point and promo about the fucking romance.

RT seems to want to be making a show that he isnt. He wants to be grimdark and angsty and awful, I guess, and while there have been elements of effective darkness throughout vmars, they have been tempered by the show as a whole. That made it (mostly palatable) for people like me. To flip the script now does a disservice to long term fans and does nothing to attract new viewers. If you want to make a different show, make a different show. Don't drive beloved characters into the ground because you're bitter about how your work is perceived post-death of the author.

To wrap up--he hates character growth. He must really hate it. This is dipping a little into the new season, but he just. Won't let anyone develop. Well. Maybe some people. A very few. But not veronica. Never veronica. Because heaven forbid your main character, the person we've followed for 15 years, be anything other than she was at 16. Her personality, her approach to the world, none of it has changed. Which begs the question: what has been the fucking point?

Sorry this is so long. I'm not sure I even answered your question, so feel free to ask me to try again 😂

The OTP Quotes challenge! Megarod for 'you’re very warm… It’s nice.'

LOL THIS IS THE BEST PROMPT TBH

They’d arranged themselves sitting side by side in the far corner of the cave, close to but not touching the crystalline wall. Despite his warnings Rodimus had leaned against it, promptly losing the tip of a spoiler which had turned brittle and crumbled as easily as a silicone wafer.

Four cycles down, four more to go.

“You’re very warm… It’s nice.”

Megatron grunted.

“What have you got under the hood, anyway?” Rodimus shivered, pointed shoulder scraping unpleasantly against Megatron’s arm. “I’ve burned through half my tank just keeping my fuel lines from freezing, and you’re still chugging along just fine.”

“I’m not just chugging along. I’m keeping both of us alive,” he snapped. “Show a little gratitude.”

“It’s your fault we’re stuck here so…” Whatever uncharitable thing Rodimus muttered was lost to the howling wind.

Megatron gritted his teeth.

“Standard energon combustion engine, miner class. Rated for crude. Low efficiency, high output.”

Rodimus glanced up, giving him what he supposed was a sympathetic look. “Well. At least you have a ginormous fuel tank.”

Arrogant racer types. Megatron rolled his optics and considered moving away out of spite. “My main engine is supplemented by a twin fusion core. I activated it as soon as we made landfall.”

When he crashed the Rodpod on a frozen gasball, to be precise.

Rodimus’s mouth dropped open with a creak and stayed that way. It was a supremely unattractive expression on a face that, in spite of himself, Megatron had grown fond of beholding.

“No slagging way. You modded your power system?”

Megatron’s optics rolled again, threatening to unmoor themselves from their optics. “No Rodimus, because the responsible thing to do as Decepticon commander was to embrace the limitations of my constructed frame.”

“You could’ve died,” Rodimus said hotly. “Hooking in a second engine is too risky. I knew a racer who tried it, as a performance enhancement thing. Blew out his primary too. He never raced again.”

In the early days of the war, the Autobots had by and large maintained control of the energon supply. Any energon the Decepticons captured went straight to the front lines. He himself had existed in a perpetually half-starved state prior to the modification. Risk hadn’t been much of a consideration at all.

Had it been concern in Rodimus’s voice? He wished to press; he didn’t dare. Discussing the past with Rodimus was a minefield he did not currently have the resources to navigate. Megatron shook his head.

“Perhaps more dangerous for a forged mech.” A fair counterpoint yet not a concession. Unlike Rodimus’s complex, finely-wrought internals his own makings were crude, the tolerances loose and components interchangeable. “In any case, what’s done is done.”

They lapsed into a silence that wasn’t quite peaceful, punctuated as it was by armor-scouring blasts of wind and Rodimus’s chattering teeth, his miserable little sniffles.

There came times in every commander’s life when he would be called upon to make difficult decisions for the greater good. He wrapped an arm around Rodimus’s huddled form and lifted him onto his lap.

Rodimus didn’t have the grace to appear even slightly ashamed at being handled as easily as a sparkling. He sighed and uncurled immediately within the cage of Megatron’s limbs. He gingerly rotated his wrists, wincing as they creaked in protest. Megatron took Rodimus’s hands and sent a surge of power through his own digits, thawing frozen circuits and joints.

Rodimus moaned loudly. The sound reverberated within Megatron’s spark chamber and traveled straight down to his reactor core. His thermal output jumped another 5% of its own volition.

“Oh thank Primus,“ Rodimus was babbling. Cold fingers scrabbled to find purchase in the seams of his abdominal plating, using them as leverage to turn so they were pressed chest to chest. “Wow you’re so hot, feels so nice. Love you Megs. I’ve been wanting to do this for vorns.”

He pointed out that it had been five-point-six cycles since they crashed.

There was no reply. Rodimus was silent except for the soft purr of his engines, operating within acceptable parameters once again. Rodimus’s nose had taken up residence in his neck cables.

Following suit, he offlined his optics and audials. It made it easier to commit to deep memory all of his other sensory inputs clamoring to report novel data including—

Rodimus’s precise weight and shape. The surprising location of his center of mass. The pulse frequency of his vibrant, living spark beating a tattoo against Megatron’s chest plate, an affectionate greeting that his own spark amplified and returned at a lower harmonic.

The force of gravity tethering them both to the rocky ground felt weaker now than it had moments ago. Megatron lowered his head till his chin rested against the top of Rodimus’s helm.

“By the way, it’s still your fault that we’re stuck here,” Rodimus murmured, after a time. “Just wanted to get that on the record for the debrief.”

Feeling too content to rise to the bait, Megatron nevertheless reset his vocalizer to speak. “Noted. Unfortunately, my barometric sensors indicate it will be another four cycles until the ion storm breaks.“

Rodimus sighed and impossibly, burrowed in deeper. “Good. Let them wait.”

Supernatural s5

I finished it a little while ago, but I haven’t had the time to make an involved post about it -or watch that much of s6 yet; I’m trying to be Resposible and the time I have has been spent in advancing fics a little bit or answering short asks lol.

-I have really enjoyed this season for the most part, but there’s something I need to get of my chest LOL: all through it, the song “Too Many Dicks (On The Dance Floor)” played in my head xDD. Like, listen, I knew what I was signing up for with this show!! I didn’t expect NOT to find it offensive or regressive on multiple occasions!! But I guess s3-4 must have spoiled me lmao. I’m not saying those seasons are the height of feminism, but if you removed its most important female characters, ESPECIALLY Ruby, the plot of the season would fall apart. That’s not something you can say for s5 and preventing the Apocalypse, just sayin’.

It wouldn’t’ve been that hard to expand Meg’s, Anna’s or the Harvelle’s part (they had good material to go there -Meg as the faithful possibly opening her eyes, Anna as the betrayed and the juror jury and executioner, the Harvelles as normal hunters fighting something way too big for them-, but barely any time and like I said, no incidence in the actual plot of the season). Hell, I’m biased but bringing back Ruby would’ve at least taken care of the problem lol. Or if the show had indulged me and kept Bellamy Young as Lucifer, at least. But everyone with a real say in the plot is a dude, or at least wearing one as a vessel (angel’s conception of gender is clearly different from humans, but in terms of ~~representation the results are the same lbr).

-My constant frustrations with Supernatural’s bigotry-related stuff lol, like I said, I really enjoyed the season (that combination is one of the most frustrating things about the show lmao). Especially Castiel’s plot. The guy has reached Potential Hall of Faves status and that’s hum. A Problem xD

But seriously, he was breaking my heart in all the best ways. His search for God (the Absent Father that the show specifically compared to John añsldkfjasf. This show ISTG!!), his disappointment and sense of betrayal at being let down (he called God Himself “son of a bitch”!!!). I was especially fascinated by his Endverse version -that AU will have its own section lol-, although it resulted in making me reaaaally nervous whenever he was close to an addictive substance :). Like yes, those scenes were lowkey humourous and adorable (like when he drinks shots with the Harvelles and Ellen is fascinated and Jo delighted -... lowkey shipping this too btw. Lowkey shipping Castiel with lots of people-, or his combo with Sam when he got drunk), but also, you know, WORRYING xD

Some of my favourite scenes of his were, predictably, his interactions with Meg or Lucifer in 5x10. The Megstiel scene was SUPER HOT (both their voices are very unf-y lol), I can’t wait to edit it. And having Lucifer call Castiel “a peculiar thing” sure was something xD (although lbr, this Lucifer isn’t keeping with his rebel angel reputation, Castiel is carrying that all by himself smh).

Another scene I couldn’t get out of my head if I wanted to is when he uhhhh... completely LOSES IT and starts beating the crap out of Dean when he was ready to give it up to Michael. “I gave everything for you, and this is what you give me?!?” ooooooof. It was hard to watch, and fascinating and intense. I shamelessly loved it lmfao.

Though my favourite moment of his is one that can only be appreciated when you know certain things about s6. It’s the scene where, unlike everyone else, he shows appreciation for Sam’s plan of sacrificing himself to get rid of Lucifer. Because yes, at this point it’s the only thing that can save the world. But Castiel isn’t saying, “Sam’s life is a small price to pay in comparison”, because he will go into s6 and snatch Sam out of the cage immediately. s5 established Sam got out, so with that in mind, he didn’t bring it up because he didn’t want to create false hope in case he failed, but he backed the plan with the intention of saving Sam anyway. I love that. I love him.

-The entire season was Missing Ruby Hours for me lmfao. Like I said, some of the problems in the season wrt female characters would’ve been at the very least lessened if she’d gotten to be here wrecking havoc. But generally I just miss her and What Could Have Been with her here. I enjoyed some of the crumbs (Sam using the witchcraft skillz he learned from her! Sam immediately knowing Meg isn’t Ruby, unlike Dean! Her knife! The ARCHANGEL GABRIEL referencing her as “the demon Sam chose over his brother”!! The callbacks with Crowley or Brady!!), but I would’ve wanted her here, dammit xD.

-Aaaaand we’re finally getting to Sam, who is without a doubt the star of the season, if you ask me. His plan at the end, to let Lucifer possess him in the hopes he can fight back for just long enough to overpower him and throw them both into the cage, with no hopes for himself? This is the kind of Big Damn Hero stunt I’m a sucker for, I won’t lie. And I love that the show felt the need to confirm he was still alive at the end of the season hehe.

He really Went Through It this season and he held on lmfao. On top of everything (the apocalypse, the guilt of being its final trigger, the addiction recovery, etc.), he also had to deal with Dean’s usual bullshit, which is no small feat xDD. Like, sure, from an audience stand-point all those things are interesting (some fave/the fuck moments are when Dean is obviously peeved that Bobby still supports Sam because he wanted Bobby in HIS corner, or when he has the nerve to say he wants to say yes to Michael because he doesn’t trust SAM not to say yes to Lucifer lmfaoooo), BUT IT’S STILL A FEAT XD

One note: for all the talk about bi!Dean, bi!Sam is so SEEN this season xDD. AFAIC he totally hooked up with that bartender Paul (RIP Paul. At least in your last moments you enjoyed Sam, who’s clearly an energetic, attentive lover 😔). And Crowley refers to Brady as Sam’s demon ex-boyfriend and nobody bats and eye lmfao (that story is so angsty... the parallels to Ruby, how he ingratiated himself with Sam by pretending to have fallen off the wagon... ouch).

-I have mixed feelings on Crowley. On his own, I fell absolutely in love with the guy on his first appearance. A demon that DOUBTS Lucifer and doesn’t kiss his ass?? That wants to get rid of him and do his own thing?? And clearly enjoys ~earthly pleasures to the fullest (his complains about how the other demons ate his tailor had me rolling laksjdfa)? The way he turned the tables on Brady? OFC I love him. OTOH boy, does it annoy me knowing that fandom GLADLY embraced him when they condemned characters like Bela or Ruby for similar things. It’s not his fault so I still like him (he’s like Gabriel in that sense), but it’s annoying!

It also annoys me how Dean Must Be Right All The Time syndrome interacts with him lol. This season Dean decides they can trust Crowley (despite Crowley killing two humans in front of him and getting him beat up by Brady lol), so they can. Next season he decides they can’t, so Castiel will be WrongTM because Dean Says So. Ugggggh xD

-To be fair, however, this season has my fave Dean so far LOL. In the love/hate scale, this one has been almost solely in camp love, barring some of those moments of irksome hypocrisy that he’s so prone to xD.

But there was something about how this season’s plot chipped away at him, you know? For all the traits he has that drive me up the wall or unsettle me, I appreciate a lot of his personality because it makes him a unique and interesting character driving the narrative -his irreverence, his ability to think on the fly and get out of shitty situations, his disbelief. Seeing all of those things under siege this season made me hurt for him in a way I hadn’t anticipated LOL. By the time he was ready to give in to Michael (and I love that what made him step away from that choice was Sam showing a trust in him he patently didn’t deserve lbr), sometimes I felt terribly for the guy.

I also wonder if this season kind of marked like... the beginning of the end for him, narrative-wise? Making him Michael’s vessel (his angel condom) is the kind of thing that turns him from subject into object, and that can doom characters ime. The fact that he ~resigns himself to Sam’s death when his identity as a character came with being His Brother’s Keeper is another slight.

-I continue having mixed feelings about Destiel too LMAO. I’ve decided I’m just going to try to enjoy the good and interesting parts while I can, while trying not to think of future developments that’ll likely sour the ship for me lol.

Because in truth, yeah, I enjoy their interactions a lot here! The Endverse was particularly enjoyable for me (back to that in a moment), but the entire season had a lot of gems. That moment in the finale, when Dean is wounded on his knees after Sam sacrifices himself, and Castiel resurrects and heals him with a touch? And Dean is staring in awe and asks him if he’s become God?? Like wtf am I supposed to do with that. WHO SAYS THAT. XDD

-The Endverse. Omgggggggg. The Endverse. I doubt I can say anything about it that hasn’t been said a thousand times, but seriously. I loooove it, all of it. My favourite was endverse!Castiel, ofc. The way he was in No Man’s Land, not an angel and not quite a human, his ways of trying to cope with that, how burned he was... I uncomfortably related to some of it too lmfao, but let’s not get into that xD.

Seeing both Deans interact was gr10 too. They really couldn’t stand each other lmfao (do you understand me now Dean?? They actually reminded me of two OCs in an original WIP of mine that are in a similar situation -in this case it’s the future version purposefully traveling to the past though-, which made me even fonder of the AU). And the Destiel? *chef’s kiss*. The bitterness, like when Castiel laughs when present!Dean berates endverse!Dean about the tortures and then purposefully says “I like past you” to hurt him asñldkfjasf. Or those looks when Dean returns to the past and tells Castiel to “never change” d’aw.

I loved Lucifer!Sam in this episode too (and personally, I think in the finale Lucifer -and Michael- should’ve changed his outfit too. Sam’s clothes just don’t get to The Devil’s levels, but that white suit was perfect). He was terrifying xD.

BTW: I’ve decided that, since we never see endverse!Castiel die, well. He didn’t xD. I could see Lucifer keeping him alive and captive out of a sense of nostalgia, as Castiel is the only other thing close to a fellow angel left. Might even decide to return his powers with time, or to ~entice him with such an offer lol. And ofc I headcanon Sam is still inside, occasionally trying to fight. Cue in all the Castiel/Lucifer and Castiel/Sam fic ideas too (I have waaaaay too many of those for this mini-verse. It’s very inspiring).

-I’m still on the fence at Lucifer’s motivations but I can’t question how the family issues fit so, so well into this ‘verse. “Family is hell” is the show’s thesis, after all xD. IMO the angels in general don’t feel like a family, they’re a military body/cult lol, but the Archangels are another matter. I guess is the whole “only four angels have seen God-slash-Dad” thing, the rest were... well, the help, apparently.

But Lucifer, Michael, and Gabriel do feel like brothers when they interact (I’m guessing here Gabriel is the Adam: discarded by the other two like nothing :)))). Raphael too, but since he doesn’t interact with them... does he get to later? Or is he the odd one out? Did the others avoid him because he kept quoting Nietzsche at dinner?? LOL.

-There are no words to explain how terribly I feel for Adam. JFC that poor KID. Who was kind and helpful and intuitive, and only wanted his mother back and to help stop the end of the world. And that Sam and Dean will leave rotting in Hell for a millennia :))). It’s kiiiiiiiiind of hard to do for your show’s “heroes” when they do shit like that lmfao. It’d be different if they never tried to make him feel he’s family, but Sam tried to convince him with the bs “because we’re blood” and they did a half-baked attempt at saving him from Zacharias, and then... yeah. At least he had Michael in the cage, but still.

-I was already spoiled of this, but the reveal that cupids made John and Mary fall in love is so chilling (good on Dean for punching that cupid asshole, btw). It puts what Mary says about John in flashbacks, about how much she loves him and how perfect he is, in such a terrifying light. And I’m under the impression that the show didn’t bother to deal with this properly when they resurrected Mary and just... I hate that tbh. It’s a narrative choice that should have a huuuge impact, dammit.

-I kind of loved how bitter and angry Bobby was about (temporarily, thanks to Crowley, his new demon bf -watch out Rufus) ending up in a wheelchair. That there were no platitudes or false sentimentality and it just... was.

-The Harvelles’ had a good send off. I can respect Kripke for wanting his faves to go on his terms lol. Having Jo refuse Dean’s offer of a fuck on their possible last night on Earth with “I rather spent it with a little thing I have self-respect”? Not because she doesn’t have feelings for him, but because she thinks she deserves better from him? I love it. This guy knows his pettiness xD

-The fact that this fandom seems to have ignored Gabriel x Kali is one of the reasons I’m never going to vibe with it, sns. Immortal exes? Check. She tricked him and killed him... but then it turns out HE tricked and he’s alive? Check. BUT THEN HE STILL GOES BACK AND SAVES HER, DYING BY HIS BROTHER’S HAND?? CHECK CHECK CHECK. Ugh, why can’t they come back to me. I know, I know, Kali is a WoC and those are only allowed one (1) appearance before they’re killed off, apparently. So it might be a good thing that she doesn’t return xD. But gosh, they were gr10.

-Death the Horseman’s intro cleared my skin. I love him. I love how utterly terrifying he is and how chilling his and Dean’s scene was. And I yearn to find a picture of the guy a little younger and with a goatee, because he’s the most perfect Discworld’s Vetinari fancast I’ve ever found xDD

-I’ve seen tons of commentary over the years, and especially lately for obvious reasons, about how this season finale would’ve been a much better ending for the show. I’m not there yet, and it does sound like the finale was a mess and this one’s was a very well constructed episode (and, ofc, the Final Love Interest was NOT blurry!!). But even if by the end I come to loathe the finale, there’s one reason I already know won’t let me agree on the s5 ending being perfect: God xDD

The episode makes Chuck come across as a ~benevolent figure and no, fuck that, do NOT want, take it away from me!! Give me God as the Big Bad Wolf, the last evil to conquer any day. It’s like Dumbledore all over again: I enjoy the character a lot more if I feel canon and I are on the same page wrt his shadiness xDD

[itsjustascarecrow]

Hap Birf to yet another one of my star wars ocs!

this time it’s Jesse “Curry” McCarty (born on the 5th day of New Years Fete, 17 BBY), who’s literally named after three different famous outlaws, lmao. he’s the Clyde to a pair of ocs who’re basically space!Bonnie & Clyde, so i felt the naming convention appropriate.

he’s Pantoran who grew up on Pantora working in the kitchens for a wealthy noble family alongside his single mother Megarrera Urgo (or just Meg). back then, he went by his given name, Frandelme Urgo (or just Fran), and was good friends w/ the noblewoman’s three daughters, Preela, Naydelia (Naydie), and Chandi Grenlan. but after an altercation w/ some nobleman who was visiting and trying to court their mother, Weylani Grenlan, he was framed for a pretty serious crime. knowing the odds were stacked against him, being only a servant boy, he decided to flee the planet instead of trying to prove his innocence. 

he ended up making his way to the planet Taris, where he resides now. after dying his hair (he’s a natural blond) and changing his name, and after a series of unavoidable circumstances, he decided to begin a life of piracy b/c at that point it seemed unavoidable. he eventually met up w/ another Pantoran runaway, an up-and-coming doctor named Barnaby, and his Twi’lek mercenary friend Serena, and together they form the start of their currently unnamed crew. not too much longer after that, he and Barnaby save Barrow Cassidy (another oc of mine i’ve mentioned before) from her crashed ship; she ends up joining their crew as their pilot and becomes the Bonnie to his Clyde.

(edit: link to his father’s bday’s post)

~one year later...

not a whole lot has changed plot-wise for Jesse; mostly just filling in some blanks. i think i had an idea for the crime he was framed for but didn’t really commit to it: basically, it was murder. it’s the easiest option to go with, and if poison was involved, he’d be the obvious choice to frame since he knows his way around food and drink.

as for when he meets up w/ Barnaby and Serena, that probably happens sooner than i originally planned; more like w/in a day or so of his arrival on Taris. most likely, he was just bumbling around in a panic so much, the two took pity on him, lol. and sort of speaking of which, i once played around w/ the idea of him and Barnaby potentially being romantic partners at one point. maybe they considered it, but ultimately decided they weren’t the ones for each other. i did however keep that one point i mentioned on Barnaby’s post that he’s responsible for for (re)dying Jesse’s hair whenever that needs to be done.

and then at some point i also decided he’s responsible for recruiting Lydas to the Siren’s Echo (finally came up w/ a name for the crew btw). probably witnessed Lydas just being a general badass or something lmao, and thought “hey, why not ask if he’s available for hire?” jdhfjd which. brilliant planning on his part; no one else besides him was particularly thrilled by the idea, and esp since it almost went south as soon as the others found out Lydas is an Imperial defector. but, to Jesse’s credit, it definitely worked out in the end.

lastly, the big Taris Mission (that i swear one day i’ll actually explain, fdsjfjksg) is when he finally learns he’s a Grenlan. he and Barrow end up being the ones to find where Preela and her sisters were imprisoned, and there’s of course a whole big reunion where the truth of Jesse’s past finally comes out to Barrow (b/c she still doesn’t know at that point; Jesse was purposefully cagey about it). and then the sisters all find out he’s been a pirate the whole time for really no reason b/c their mom had already proved his innocence years ago so he could’ve come home whenever, but. yeah, rip. anyway, either Weylani or Meg finally mention it, and frankly none of them are really surprised about it. but ultimately Jesse decides he’s gonna stick w/ the Siren’s Echo b/c at least now they’re all one big happy family again, so yay.

~continuing updates...

is how i’m gonna phrase it where it applies, hsdhg thankfully nothing really at all to change or add, since this is already longer than i remember, lol rip. if anything, i guess i’m just a little perplexed on how to handle his name since obvs his pirate fam know him as Jesse while Pantoran fam still know him as Fran. and like. given that Jesse McCarty was essentially something he made up on the spot? idk. like it’s still a big part of his identity now, so he prob just lets people call him either/or after a point.

The Mine Series

@docharleythegeekqueen said: Okay this series is really good. For a moment I really thought the Princess was just plain evil. Now I see it though and the insights into her mind are really good about describing that. I’m hoping they can form a greater bond because I have a feeling she knows exactly how a whipping feels. I don’t trust her father at all. Great story and very engrossing. I can’t wait for more.

Thank you so much! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the reader’s development and I hope you like what comes next!

@mrswhozeewhatsis said: I sincerely hope that Sam is right about her!

I’m glad to hear this is gonna be a series, because if it ended like that, I was gonna revolt!!

I can’t wait to see where this is going!

We’ll have to wait and see... (And aren’t you glad the first part didn’t just end like that?)

@a-screaming-ghost said: THIS IS WONDERFUL AND EVERYTHING I NEVER KNEW I NEEDED IN LIFE! If you’re a Sam girl, check this out please!

Uhm excuse me, but this was…. how do I put it? I NEED MORE OF THISIT’S THE GOOD STUFF!

Oh, Merbear! Thank you so much for your comment and your sweet texts! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the series and I hope that you enjoy the upcoming parts as much as you have the past ones!

@sandlee44 said: I love this story it is so good and very well written but it is so heartbreaking especially this part. Poor Sam

Thank you! And that was my goal—poor Sam!! I hope you like the upcoming parts!

@xi-i-i-whatsyouremergency said: My poor bb… I hate Cain 😑Amazing chapter altogether 💜💜💜

Thank you so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying the series!

@tiffanycaruso said: Darn she didn’t stab Cain… Poor Sammy.. 🙁 Amaizng chapter luv

This is brilliant! Wish Sam could of least stabbed her then blacked out.. hope there more!

I really want someone to set her and her bastard father on fire... My poor Sammy... 

Thank you so, so much! I’m sorry she didn’t stab Cain and that Sam didn’t stab her, but I promise it’ll get better!

@donnaintx said: This is an intriguing tale. It reminds me of the stories about Medieval times. This Princess is not only sassy but evil but not as much as her father. With Sam it seems to me that she might have a week spot but if crossed she has a temper plus combat training. She’s fierce. I’m wondering if respect for each other will ‘win out’ between them.

I guess you’ll have to wait and see what happens between the two of them! You are right, however, when you say that she’s got a temper and combat training. That’s a dangerous combination...

@cabbitholeresearch said: Ok… I might low-key like being an evil spoiled badass bitch of a princess that’s totally doing her Dom thing with Sam lol… Lol this is getting good.

I’m glad you’re enjoying the series so much, and I hope you like the upcoming parts!

@cleverdame said: I’m really enjoying being and evil princess :) I’m excited to see where this goes!

Thank you! I hope you like what comes next!

@jotink78 said: DAMN MEG!!! Whoa! This is incredible. I love the fact that “you” are the bad guy (at least so far)…so unique! I can’t wait to see where you go with this!

Thanks, Joanie! I’m glad you’re liking the series and I hope you like the next few parts! I hope it keeps keeping people on their toes!

@allinhishands said: Ouch…. I was not expecting that!

That’s the goal for this whole series! A little bit of ouch, a little bit of surprise... and maybe some fluff later on. We’ll have to wait and see. ;)

@l4life replied: This story is so well written. Its heartbreaking, for both Sam, and even the reader

Well when I tell someone to not touch my food...

Thank you so much! I’m glad you like it! Also, your comment about the food made me laugh!

@bunnybaby121115 replied: This is getting good and it sounds like Sam might could convince the reader to leave with him in time

I guess we’ll have to wait and see what they do!

@lovisathelins replied: This story is so damn good❤️

I was not expecting that... what the hell???

Thank you!!!

What He Never Had

@donnaintx said: I just finished binge reading this again. I am still in love with this story! I could feel the angst from the beginning of the witch’s spell. I could feel all the other emotions of each person which pulled me farther into this tale. The fluff was perfect and made my heart glow with happy tears for everyone all around. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wow, thank you so much! I’ve always been on the fence about this series, and it made my night to see that you’ve enjoyed it so much!!

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it!! It was fun to write.

@dancing-the-hellfire-rumba said: Oh my gosh so so cute! He was so adorable and nervous and trying to cover it up and also so SAM like “it’s okay if you don’t want to we can pretend like this never happened” I loved that a lot! (And also that last line slayed me just dAW)

Wow, thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked Sam’s line. I’m really proud of that one.
