#IMP!SAM I WILL BE YOUR BITCH

[bubblergoespop]

“Good bitch.”

- Imp! Samuel Collins

[on-the-clear-blue]

Dead Man's Diner pt 4

"THOSE FUCKING BITCHES SAM!" Danny shouted as he stormed into his apartment, slinging his backpack off by the door as he toes his shoes off.

Rounding the corner of the hallway, Danny was met with Tucker, shirtless with only a pair of plaid boxers on, staring at him with sleep glazed eyes, he had a box of cereal in one hand, and a bottle of oat milk in the other, raising the bottle in a salute, Tucker stuffed a handful of cereal into his mouth before taking a swig of the milk, holding up a hand to stop Danny from speaking as he chewed, only letting his hand fall before he spoke.

"What?"

"The Bats are fucking assholes!"

Tucker looked back at the bottle of oat milk, sighed and placed it back in the refrigerator, chucking the box of cereal on the counter, Tucker grabbed Danny by the shoulders.

"Of course they are Jerks Danny..." his grip tightened as he started to shake the Halfa, "I have ten deadlines and 5 missed calls, I really want to geek out right now about you meeting the local heroes but I really don't have the time, so yes, jerks, tell me about it later okay?"

Danny phased through the tough grip on his shoulders, letting out a giggle as he watched Tucker fumble as he no longer had someone to help steady himself, "I did yell specifically for Sam, Tuck so you can't get mad at me! Go huant the Wanyetech building, I know for sure those dudes are way more dead inside than I am!"

Getting a groan from his friend at his dead pun, Danny continued into the apartment, snatching Tuckers cereal box off the counter as he went to sit in the living room.

Spotting Sam typing something on a lap top, her big over the ear headphones blaring as he flops down next to her, which thankfully was enough for her to notice him.

Offering g the box of cereal to her, she sent him a tired smile as she slipped the head phones off and took some of the fruit flavored rings, "Hey there Deadstuff...how was work?"

Danny sent her a grin, "Well, Clocky decided to throw me a bone and I think I got this? He is a little bitch boy that sends me all over the place but this time it was a dined, Lunch Lady taught me how to cook." Pasuing to stuff a new handful of tasty fruity goodness, Danny spoke around the cereal in his mouth "Cookin' ish so much more cool when da food isn't trying to kill you"

Slapping Danny's arm as she rolled her "Don't eat with your mind full and tell me what got you so riled up" Sliding her laptop of her self she tucked her knees up before stretching them out over Danny, who was already going off on his story.

"Wait wait! You had Nightwing in you're restaurant and you didn't get me an autograph?" Same shot Danny a scowl, who at least had the decency to look sorry

"I was going to but they fucking dined and dashed Sam! Even when I was actively Phantom, I never, ever just left a bill!"

---

Dick knew that perhaps eating the food was a slightly bad idea, given the look B gave them when him and Tim pulled into the Cave.

He was standing there, arms crossed, thankfully cowl down, what made the sight infinitely less intimidating was Damian doing the same next to him, his head tilted to look down at them and perhaps standing on his tittpy toes a little bit.

Dick wanted to coo at the father son bonding, but remembered he had to act at least a little chastised at the moment "Yes I am sorry B, It was my decision to head in, there was no outward danger so we just took a chance."

Wincing at the gruff grunt he got from that Dick powered on, "I will write a more detailed report, but personally if anything wrong it's likely that the kid working there is Meta? I dont-"

"He can't be meta! He is very clearly a ghost Dick!" Tim interrupted already flipping through some notes he had made on the way back home, "its the only explanation...or he is a 5th dimensional Imp with a passion for cooking but I really hope not those guys suck to deal with..."

Dick nodded at that, but had to say some thing foe his own superfan imp "Nightmite is a chill dude helps sometimes with cases back in Bludhaven!"

Giving a sigh, Bruce rubbed the bridge of his nose, "No mites, no metas, no ghost, go to Medbay I am running blood tests on what sweet hell you have ingested."

---

Bruce ran the test again, sure that it was wrong, praying that it was wrong.

TEST COMPLETE

TRACE LAZARUS WATERS DETECTED

Underneath was lists of chemical make ups of the samples Tim took and his sons blood, there were varying levels through out the food samples, some lighter but others were heavy on it.

What was stumping him was...it was nearly perfectly pure, the pits naturally over time get polluted, with the dirt and sediment that falls in, and with the various amounts of bodily parts and fluids that are dipped in it.

But the trace amounts Bruce was finding were a better quality than Ra's own personal pool, not the one he dips in to regain his youth that the LOA make a ritual out of, no the privet one in the Alps that was clear as glacial water.

It didn't make any sense to Bruce, who would be spreading Lazarus water around? Ra's would not simply share his secret pure stash...

Lost in thought, Bruce sat back glaring at the test results.

---

"And after I thought I was giving great service, they fucking left, no bill, no tip! I didn't even get to see Nightwings ass as he left! People say it's a godly experience! I was robbed!" Letting out a huff Danny shot Sam an incredulous look at her sudden burst of laughter. "Sa~am, this isn't funny! Never meet your heroes! I am taking this to Twitter! They shall know my fury!" His words only served to make Sam laugh even harder.

Stifling a grin Danny took out hos phone, a old busted thing that was more ducktape and prayers than actual technology, but dear go's did it still work.

<@i-haunt-spirit-holloween

[@.realwing @not-that-red-robin.real yall are toxic twinks came in to my workplace and fucking dined and dashed 0/10 Nightwing has a flat ass.]

Hitting send, Danny put his phone down, choosing to let the nights happenings go past his mind and just hang out with Sam before showering and finally going to bed.

---

Tim was hunched over his lap top, going frame by frame of his body cam footage, he *needed* to figure this out, it was like an itch in his brain that he would go through bone to get through.

His work payed off as he clicked forward another time, his feed went static before it showed a blurry blue blob in place of the diner! Proof! It was there!

Jumping at the sudden bang of his bedroom door being thrown open, Tim whirled to around to see Dicks distressed face, standing up, Tim prepared for the worst, something happened. Bruce was dead agian it had to be-

"TIMMY I AM A TWINK AM I??" Was Dicks wail as he flopped down on Tim's bed.

Letting out a shuddering sigh, Tim looked longingly at his laptop before closing it, "Dick, what the fuck."

Rolling around on the bed, Dick finally looked up at Tim "Littlewing sent me a tweet and...ugh just look!" Thrusting out his phone as he spoke

Pasuing at the mention of Jason, Tim  looked down at the screen and froze

"Holy shit...we forgot to pay didn't we...fuck Jason is never going to let us live that down."

Tim still remembered the first time he witnessed one of Jason's famous "make Bruce spend more money" rants about tipping.

It was glorious.

Tim now realized he would be one of two that was likely going to have to face it next.

"UGH?? You focus on the money and not the other parts? Tim I was called a toxic twink with no ass! This is a declaration of war! I have never been so offended!" Dick sat up, eyes narrowd while Tim opened up the tweet on his own phone.

"The comments agree Dick, I am sorry, you now have a flat ass congrats and welcome to the club" Tim said dryly, trying to go to the posters page, since it was clearly Danny who posted it.

Only the app crashed when he tried to. And again when he tried to a second time, and his web browser crashed when he tried opening it there

Tim was baffled on what was happening while Dick lemented on his bed before deciding to hack it later.

<@not-that-red-robin.real

[@i-haunt-spirit-holloween super sorry about that send me venmo and I'll pay with tip]

<@i-haunt-spirit-holloween

[@not-that-red-robin.real Fuck that face me like a coward bitch bet you wont]

<@not-that-red-robin.real

[@i-haunt-spirit-holloween...bet]

---

Somewhere in a safe house in Crime Ally, Jason let out a little giggled as he scrolled through the comments on the funniest post he had found in a while, Jason was surely going to have to speak to Timberly and Dickiebird about paying their bills but right now?

He was kicking his feet watching Dick have a public meltdown as Nightwing.

Finally, he wouldn't be the only one who had to retake the Bat Media course.

How was he supposed to know doing peace signs next to a person he just shot wasn't allowed?

[isuckatwritingsobenice]

you’re genuienly one of my fav writers! may I request the seduce me brothers with an s/o that’s a vampire? or some other supernatural being?

AHH OMG AM I REALLY? THANK YOU SO MUCH THAT ACTUALLY MEANS SO MUCH TO ME OMG 😪😪🫶🫶 i love you forever, Thank you so much for your request!! I hope you enjoy it!! I also decided to include what type of vampire they are. EX: taking inspo from Draculara from Monsrer High, or the Cullens in Twilight!

Warnings: death, blood drinking, implied smut,

Navigation!!! // Masterlist!!!

James:

You’re a regular vampire ( Dracula Coded )

He could sense it off of you, it was painfully obvious you were hungry

It was pretty dark out, and the club he was in was equally as dark

You don’t approach anyone, but others do approach you

You’re noticeably older, but not by much, maybe late 20’s early 30’s

In human years…

James decides to go over to you, what’s the worst that can happen? everything

Luckily for him you recognize that scent, and after a few drinks you’re both off to some cheap hotel room

It starts with a one night stand, one James usually doesn’t do, but you draw him in so easily it’s hard to resist

He doesn’t let you go, he refuses too

You two sneak off into small alleyways, hidden in the shadows where you’re safe

Usually if you ever go out it’s with an umbrella or long sleeve

rainy days with you are perfect for him >>

likes going to blood parties with you, which is just a fancy dance vampires have every few months

he’s seen you drink blood, he doesn’t partake in it, but he does feel better knowing you aren’t hungry

doesn’t condone you hunting humans but also doesn’t try very hard to stop you so ;)

Erick:

( Victorian Vampire )

Met at a demon ball

He was HOOKED when he saw you

He thought you were drinking wine until he saw how much it stained your lips and cup

He’s naturally flirty, and so are you

You two talk for hours about other worldly food is so much better than human food

He’s so sad when you leave :( but he gets excited when you appear in a library the next day

Cue him finding out you can travel through shadows and paintings ?!?!?!

Thinks it’s so cool and absolutely asks you out on a date

you go to a rave party when he watches you hunt

he’s in love

he helps you hide the body

he’s gonna marry you

Sam:

( Twillight based )

He met you on the bus …

not the most romantic but it was late at night and you were hungry

he watched you devour the bus driver

Of course you didn’t try to attack him but you acted like everything was normal afterwards

just casually started talking to him with blood all over you and he’s like ??? bitch wtf but like in a hot way

pulls the “ so you have plans later?” knowing damn well you don’t

you two end up having a one night stand, and the strength battle between you two is steamy ~

he does see you again though, it’s on his way home from work

he sees a dead body, he also sees you, he now sees nothing wrong and dismisses the complaints of noise, who ever knew? not him that’s for sure

you two hunt imps or animals a lot, you make a game out of it

he likes that you can be outside with him

shine bright like a diamond

Matthew:

( Draculara coded )

met at a bakery

you wanted a cupcake and Matthew asked if you needed help with balancing the cupcake and holding your umbrella together

it’s 80 degrees out

when you hand him the umbrella you step in the shade, and he follows slightly

you make small talk with him and he tells you he’s on the hunt to try all the bakery’s in the city to find the best cupcakes

you tell him the best bakery burnt down in 1857 and he’s like … come again?

he knew you weren’t human but vampire was not what he was expecting

panicked and thought you were gonna bite him

you did not bite him

he likes that you’re vegan though

at least you two can eat together, as long as it’s inside and not with a lot of sunlight through the windows

probably the most cautious about blood being around you

Damien:

( psychic vampire )

he actually loves that you can communicate telepathically

you also help with his headaches which he really appreciates

you two met under a bridge

he saw you kill someone and was like um… no thank you !!

but he did decide to give you a chance, he’s seen enough death one by a pretty vampire wouldn’t hurt

probably cuts himself on purpose for you

you don’t take the blood because you know it wasn’t an accident

he calms your bad behavior sometimes, messing with people’s minds and stuff

you help get rid of his mind reading powers

he loves you forever >>

Sometimes We Just Need Reassurance

Pairing: Dean Winchester x GN!Reader

Warnings: Violence, unaliving someone, breakdown from reader, might be a little triggering

Words: 1k

Summery: A job takes an unexpected turn... Dean helps you.

Walking up to the door of the motel room that you and the boys were staying in, you juggled bags of food in your hands as you unlocked the door. You walked in and noticed Sam siting down at the table with his laptop and the sounds of water running in the bathroom.  

“Ahh, sleeping beauties are awake finally.” You grinned at Sam who huffed out a laugh and stood to help you with the tray of coffee before you dropped it.  

You smiled at him and tossed the key on the side table as the water in the bathroom stopped.  

“Thanks, Y/N.” He grinned and sat back down as you put the bags of food on the table. “And thanks for the hint this morning.”

You smiled as you proceeded to take the food out and separate the food and coffee. “Oh, so you got my note?”

Out walked Dean from the bathroom with a wash rag in hand, wiping his hands dry. He had his bitch face on as he spoke. “Of course, we got it. You taped it to my forehead while I was sleeping.”  

You and Sam chuckled as you handed Dean his cup of coffee. “Does this make up for it?” You grinned at him.  

He shook his head and took a sip and closed his eyes in bliss and sighed. “Sure...” He put up the ‘ok’ sign with his free hand before moving to one of the chairs at the table to grab his food.  

You were in a small town in Minnesota, working a case, which you were pretty sure was a ghost and you were ready to get this thing tonight so you can go back to the bunker.  

-

The three of you walked into the abandoned house that people had been disappearing into for the last month. Sam walked in with his flashlight in one hand and the EMF reader in the other. You and Dean had your guns with salt rounds in the back of your jeans ready for anything. Along with iron bars in your hands, you also had a flashlight.  

Eventually, you split up.  

You had the upstairs; Sam was on the ground floor and Dean in the basement.  

Not even 10 minutes into searching the house, a bang came from the basement. You rushed down the stairs that creaked under your shoes, and you just met up with Sam who was running down the hallway and you both looked at each other with the same look on your faces. “It’s always Dean.” You say as you both took off running to the basement entrance.

“When is it not Dean.” He huffs out as we ran down the stairs.  

Making it down into the basement, Dean was pushing himself up from the ground and looked around frantically with a grunt.  

“Dean, you okay?” You asked as you rushed to his side. He looked around more as he took deep breaths.  

“Yeah...” He grunted out and leaned on you with a sigh, pressing his head against the side of yours. “I don’t think it’s a ghost, though.”  

“I’m pretty sure that it’s a ghost.” Sam says with a frowned brow.  

“I’m pretty sure it’s not!” Dean sasses back with raised eyebrows and a tilted head.

Sam purses his lips before sassing back. “Oh, really?”

Dean’s face falls into his bitch face before snapping back. “Ghosts don’t bleed, Sam!”

At that moment, the ghost – sorry – person decides to jump Sam, bringing them both to the ground. Dean and You make quick movements and reach back to grab your guns and then shooting the man that was choking Sam.  

The man drops to the side as Sam takes deep breaths and rests against the floor for a moment.  

Dean runs to his brother as you walk over and check to see if the man was dead or not. Feeling no pulse, you sigh and turn to the boys. Dean helps Sam stand and then pats him on the shoulder.  

Turns out, the man was a homeless man that had a breakdown one day squatting at the house and was killing the people that came in and then storing them in a whole in a wall.  

Deciding to salt and burn the place, the three of you made a call to the police after you set fire to the house.  

You frowned as you stared out the window of the Impala as you drove to the motel. Thinking over the fact that the man suffered from some mental illness and couldn’t get the help he needed. Which was more often than not how things went.  

You were broken out of your thoughts when you felt a hand on your thigh. Turning, you saw that you were in the parking lot of the motel and Sam was walking into the room already.  

“Hey” Dean called to you softly as he squeezed your thigh softly. You locked eyes with him and he watched you softly. “You going to be okay, Y/N/N?”  

You gave a grimacing smile and shrugged while putting your hand on top of his. “I will be. I always bounce back.”  

He gave a sad smile back before intertwining your fingers with his and pulling your hand to his lips to kiss the back of your hand. “Just because you say that means that you aren’t okay now. You know, the only reason I can get through the last few years with all this bullshit is because of you...” He scooches into the middle and then pulls you over to him. “You were always there to help me... making sure I kept going.” He leaned his forehead to yours and stared into your eyes. “You picked me first... You put me first and made me feel wanted and needed and important... and it’s my turn to return the favor. If you need to unload anything, you can talk to me... Always. You never judged me and I will never judge you cause we are two fucked up people.”  

You let out a choked laugh through a sob, not even realizing that you had started to cry. He gave a tiny smile as he rubbed your side and thigh.  

“I love you.” You said seriously though a small sob as you wrapped your arms around his neck.

He smiled and pulled you against him tighter and kissed your forehead softly. “I love you too, Sweetheart.”  

You gave a soft sob as you buried your face into his neck.

- what is this whole exposition dump about Ridcully and his ‘inventions’?!

- Dude where is his wizard hat. I am shook

- ANYWAY

- Back to Vimes’ past as an immoral douche

- nvm back to the royal parking garage

- Why is Vetinari wasting time on Vimes while he’s such a useless bum? she’s treating him like she knows he’s gonna be a duke one day

- Gods why does Vimes move like that. Gives me the heebie-jeebies

- Ridcully invented iconographs???? AND the dragon-torturing streetlights??? What like there are no other people in the whole city who could’ve done that? We’re really just gonna pin everything on the only wizard dude who seems to exist

- Sybil and Ridcully are arch-enemies then too I guess

- Oh the goblin things are communists for comedy value

- And they work for Carcer... for some... reason???

- carrot is so serious but not in the right way

- “‘just a cleaner” — sweetheart you look like you oughta be escaping a prison planet in Doctor Who wtf

- cheery and Angua suddenly have ... chemistry ?! Honestly I’m not not here for it

- And then “you’re terrified of the dark” slapped me in the face like a fish.

- Yep. Cheery the tall dwarf is afraid of the dark ... for some... reason?

- Aaaaaand yep capn’ space prison is working for Carcer because of course she is!

- Because there are 10 people in this whole city and half of them work for Carcer and the other half are either ghosts in Cheery’s head or automatons invented by KNOWN SERIAL KILLER Mustrum Ridcully

- What did Carcer call the space prison lady?

- Oh no

- Noooooooooo

- No this is too much.

- So

- Let me sum up

- carcer was a wily gang leader who was looking after a bunch of kids who just wanted to survive on the rough streets on angie-morpurge including SAM VIMES and ... WONSE?! (WHO IS A GRUNGY EX-CON CLEANING LADY INSTEAD OF HAVELOCK’S SECRETARY FOR SOME REASON?!) until Carcer was betrayed by Vimes and accidentally shot sgt. Keel which naturally caused Vimes to chase him onto a roof where Vimes let him fall to his death except instead he got zapped by magic time lighting which caused him to appear in the future where he decided to buy troll drugs, haunt Vimes, and summon a freaking dragon (in that order).

- Yeah yeah. Makes perfect sense.

- Moving on

- Why are we breaking in to the library?

- Oh well at least we’re all here together now

- Serves you right for hiring a cleaner who looks like a gritty space ex-con my guy

- “carcer needs to burn the whole city down” “why?” Uh—yeh

- Will somebody please make Vimes stop moving. His torso, his face—everything. Stop it

- Stop

- Please gods

- My head. It hurts.

- They’re doing exposition but it just hurts.

- Oh good the goblin assassins are here with arrows

- What are these camera movements and why are they LOUD?!

- I think I blinked and missed most of angua’s character arc but good for her I guess

- WHY DOES VIMES MOVE LIKE THAT

- So angua did what?

- Aw Carcer. what a bro. What a sweetheart. I hope things go well for him.

- WHY DOES VETINARI BELIEVE IN VIMES?!

- What is the point of Vimes in this?! He has no moral compass. No wit. No soul. He’s just a drunk coward doing a bad Jim Carrey impression that makes me want to die

- Wait was that an edit or did I have a stroke

- Uh... so they are setting up Cheery and Angua as lovers then. Still not hating it, just... ya know... the whole angua and carrot thing? Kind of a big deal? We’re not gonna like... no? Okay.

- “we’re actually quite good at this aren’t we” —NO

- “i wouldn’t be seen dead wearing that” — we’re really just plucking lines from random discworld characters and chucking them into the script randomly aren’t we

- No no, let’s hear Sybil’s tragic backstory about how the watch done her wrong here we goooo-oh? Nope never mind there she goes she left

- Whoop there it is. It’s assigned reading.

- “Join me, Wonse. Join THE DARK SIDE OF THE FORCE” - Carcer

- HOLD UP

- CARCER JOINED SOME MESSED-UP VERSION OF THE TIME TRAVELING MONKS?!?!?

- THE MONKS (or whoever they’re supposed to be he mumbled and I didn’t catch it) ARE TRYING TO DESTROY REALITY?!?!?

Special Part 1: Shadow Natural,

The year 2014

So much has happened in the last year. Alec became Console, Clary and Jace got engaged, the war with the Cohort was still ongoing, and little has been seen of the Seelie queen. With all this going on Magnus felt like it was a good idea to take Alec out for a date night to the movies. This strange tale starts as the two men are walking out of the theater holding hands.

As they round a corner into a back alley walking home the hair on the back of Alec’s neck starts to tingle. When this happens it usually means he is being followed. The two men spun around, Magnus had just enough time to throw up a blue flame-covered hand to stop a bullet inches from his face.

Alec draws a seraph blade from his belt and calls out “Cassiel” and the blade shoots out and lights up the alley. Before them stands two mundanes. One was tall with shaggy light brown hair and his gun was trained on Magnus. The other man was short with spiky brown hair and a look of complete shock was on his face as he lowered his smoking gun. “Son of a Bitch!” He shouts.

Magnus flicks a finger and sends the bullet flying back at the two men. They dive out of the way and roll into a ball then jump up their guns amed back at Magnus. But now Alec was not standing there he was behind them and held his seraph blade at the tail man's throat. “Put them down, I really don’t want to kill a mundane.” Alec states.

The tail man looks at the short one. “Dean just kill this warlock”

“I really would not do that. My husband is very good with his seraph blades.” Magnus says smiling at Alec.

“Sammy, why is a warlock smiling at you like that?” Dean asks

“Not me, the man behind me.” Sam answers.

“I mean it, have your boyfriend drop the gun and you do the same,” Alec says, rubbing his blade on Sam's throat drawing a little blood.

“Really come on, he is my Brother. Why do all you monsters seem to think we are gay.” Dean snaps. This moment gave Magnus the opening he needed and he twisted his hand and blue flames shouted out and sent Dean flying into the wall.

“I am so going to kill you for that! And your boy toy monster!” Sam yells and Magnus wiggles his fingers at Sam.

“The only monster I see here is you and your brother. My husband is a Nephilim and a high-ranking one so watch how you talk to him.” Magnus says and is tackled to the ground by Dean.

“Sam, will you kill that thing already!” Dean says drawing a silver hunting knife. Dean however was not able to use his weapon as two long swords were now at his throat. Holding them was Jace and Clary

“You really don’t want to do that, mister. My parabatai really would not like it if you killed his husband and you don’t want to see a heartbroken and mad Shadowhunter” Jace says with a shit-eating grin.

“A what?” Sam asks, shocked, his eyes Widening.

“We are Shadowhunters and this warlock is protected,” Clary says.

“Hold on, hold on we are hunters two,” Dean says holding up his hands.

“You know you're cute and all but I am happily married so get off me!” Magnus yells Dean slow rose as did the two swords. Magnus gets up and dusts off.

“Ok guys let’s just talk about this, we are all hunters here,” Sam says in a calm voice.

“You're mundane, not one of us,” Jace says, looking over at Sam.

“We are not mundane, we are human!” Dean shouts.

“It’s the same thing,” Clary says softly.

“If your hunters like us then you're human too,” Dean adds.

“We are Shadowhunters also known as the Nephilim,” Alec explains

“What the Hell is a Nephilim?” Dean asks.

“There children of Angels,” Sam says looking very shocked now he has gone pale white.

“That’s right, we are the children of Raziel,” Jace says with a bright smile.

“Oh Great, So your dicks.” Dean says and is slapped by Magnus. “Hey!”

“Watch how you talk about my husband and friends. I understand now, you Human Hunters. You're so lost and don’t even know it.” Magnus says looking at the two men.

“Human hunters?” Clary asks.

“As you know, some mundane can see the shadow world. A few of them become what they call Hunters and battle the darkness” Magnus explains.

Alec steps away from Sam and lowers his blade and nods at Jace and Clary to do the same. They do and Dean and Sam put their weapons away also.

“Guess that explains why they could see us,” Jace says and tapes his unseen ruin.

“Nice tat but what’s it got to do with anything?” Dean asks.

“Dean, that's an Angelic Mark.” Sam states.

“If you did not have the sight, you would not be able to see Jace and me. Oh, I am Clary by the way. This is Alec and Magnus.” She says and points out to everyone.

“I am Sam Winchester and this is my brother Dean,” Sam says.

“No Way!” Clary shouts kind of fangirl style.

“Biscuit, do you know them?” Magnus asks, quivering an eyebrow.

“Kind of, I mean I thought they were just Characters in the Supernatural books,” Clary replaces.

“I swear to Chuck I hate those books!” Dean shouts

“Chuck?” Clary asks.

“It’s a long story,” Sam says with a half-smile.

“Not that I don’t love all this witty banter but why are Hunters in this city?” Magnus questions.

“Oh we are after a Witch and we thought it was Him.” Dean points at Magnus.

“Do you have a name for this Witch?” Jace asks, still glaring at the two brothers.

“No, we just know she has a thing about using purple fire.” Sam respawns. Alec, Jace, Clary, and Magnus all exchange a look of shock.

“Purple fire you say?” Magnus inquiries as Alec walks next to him.

“Ya some witch been going all over the U.S. causing all kind of crap and we got wind the witch be in new york so we hoped in my baby and hauled ass here,” Dean explained

“Baby?” Alec states looking very confused.

“His Car.” Sam and Clary say at the same time.

“Anyway, children.” Magnus snaps his fingers. “The one you seek her name is Sinira, she is a warlock.” He finishes

“I thought only guys could be warlocks?” Dean scratches the top of his head a quizzes look on his face.

“How very sexiest of you my dear boy. Warlock is a race, not a title. Most of the people you've been dealing with are just Mundanes playing with magic they do not understand,” Magnus states with a playful wink.

“Fine, whatever, I don't care as long as the Bitch dies!” Dean snaps.

“Hold on Dean, these guys seem to have a lot more info than us,” Sam says, laying a soft hand on his brother’s shoulder.

“You guys can’t kill her… I have read all about you but this is one fight that you are way out of your league,” Clary gives them a kind smile.

“We will deal with Sinira, you can be on your way,” Jace gives the two brothers a shooing motion.

Just then Xander, one of the young shadowhunters, comes running up to the group. He looks like he has been in a battle black inking substances are splattered all over him. He doubles over out of breath right in front of Alec.

“Xander, what are you doing here?” Alec looks at the young boy. “Is that icor?”

“What's Icor,” Dean whispers over to his brother. Sam just shrugs.

“Imp Demons in time square… Izzy and Simon there but… getting overrun.” Xander says between gasps for air.

“Xander, why did you not have an endurance ruin on?” Clary asks.

“I did, how do you think I got all the way here from time square?” Xander spouts out fine catching his breath.

“Magnus can you portal us there we need to help the others and we will need you to make a diversion for the Mundanes,” Alec asks softly.

Magnus nods and starts waving his hands around as blue fire comes from them and slowly a circular portal starts to open. Through the glimmering surface of the portal 42 street can be seen. Without looking Jace and Clary darted through the portal followed by Xander. Alec looks over at the two brothers. “Leave Sirina to us.” Alec says and darts through the portal.

“Aren’t imps like little pests things?” Dean asks.

“Yes but in large numbers they can be very dangerous.” Sam replays.

“Umm hello boys. Demons attacking humans kind of in your job description.” Magnus shouts and points to the still open portal. Sam and Dean Exchange a look then jump into the portal like they were diving into a pool. Magnus just shakes his head and walks through the portal.

Time square was a scene of complete horror. People running everywhere and tons of little monsters attacking them.

They were maybe a foot tall but they were in all different colors and sizes. On their backs were small devil-like wings.

When Dean and Sam come through the portal they see that most of Shadowhunters where battling the imps wall a small group are ushering the normal People out of the area.

Magnus steps through the portal “you two going to just stand there or help out?”

Dean and Sam draw their guns and exchange a look then nod running towards the battle.

“Um boys your little pea shouters won’t help here.” Magnus says with a chaser cat grin.

“Wall it’s what we got.” Sam says

“And they have never failed us yet. We found you can shoot most things dead!” Dean adds in very snarky.

“Boy boys boys you have barely glimpsed the Shadow World.” Magnus snaps his fingers and blue Sparks fly out. A long brod sword appeared strapped onto Dean's left hip and two short swords appeared on Sam’s back. “Try them out.” Magnus wings at the two boys and runs over to help Alec fight off a group of imps.

“I think he was flirting with us?” Dean says.

Sam puts away his gun and draws his swords. Dean follows suit and draws out his long sword. “Hey Sammy look… By the power of Gray skull!” Dean yells out, thrusting his sword into the air.

“Hey He-man you want to use that sword of power and help out or what!” Simon snaps shooting an arrow through the head of an imp.

“Wow, nice shot.” Sam says and runs over to help in the fight.

“I was just trying to….” Dean's face is covered in black inky blood. He whips his eyes clear to see Jace with his sword held out in front of Dean. Dean stumbles back and looking down he sees the body of a imp split in two.

“That sword is not a toy. Use it or get the hell out of here!” Jace snaps and spends on his heels decapitating the heads of two more imps.

Dean's face changes from one of shock into a saturn and determined look and stud back to back with Jace. “Me and you are going to have words after this is over.”

To be continued!!!

Strifing Without Specibus: How To Weaponize Your Sylladex & Other Harming Implements

One’s Strife Specibus is one of the more important tools in the game. Defending from Underlings and PK’ers, facing down the final bosses and Unreal Heirs, fruitless sparring with your Guardians and Coplayers, and the time honored tradition of getting into dick-measuring contests with your friends, seeing who can make the coolest or most absurd method. Some people allocate their Specibus accidentally, but as their improvised weaponry grows on them, they “main” it, trying as hard as they can to keep using it in future sessions. Your average Player will use a variety of Strife Specubi, from typical weapons like bladekind, pistolkind, and hammerkind, to weird choices like bookkind, peprmillkind, or rulerkind (measuring sticks, not governing bodies). Some people choose theirs because they like it, some choose for versatility, and some choose for metagaming purposes.

Sometimes though, the Strife Specibus isn’t enough. You’ve got some wimpy kiddy scissors that just won’t cut it while an Ogre prepares to swing. You’ve got a lance, but a winged Imp flies out of reach. You’ve got enough mangrit to toss a dryer, which you conveniently have on-hand, but no dryerkind, and the strange abstracted game-y nature of reality thus prevents you from attacking with it. In such cases, instead of un-abstracting your Strife Deck for the purposes of tossing it on the floor and stepping on it, perhaps you should get good and learn how to weaponize your Sylladex.

We’ve all been there. We’re having trouble fighting things, so your smarmy know-it-all friend tells you “a hyuk hyuk why dont u fite with your sllyadex yuo fucking scrub” and then doesn’t tell you how to actually do it. So you flail around, then learn how to do it kind of, and then stop doing it and rely on your Strife Specibus. Then years later, someone with less experience than you is having trouble fighting things, so you tell them “a hyuk hyuk why dont u fite with your sllyadex yuo fucking scrub". With typos, because you’ve turned into a silly mspaint strawman comic man. And then you cry. It’s a vicious, dehumanizing cycle, and you probably want to punch that guy or yourself, but you can’t because you don’t have fistkind you fucking scrub. You also can’t throw stuff at him, because you learned the bare basics of Sylladex fighting so you’re very shitty at it. So I’m going to help you break that cycle, and teach you actual lessons of fighting with your Sylladex. That way, you can walk right up to that dude, then toss a bunch of cream pies at him, then watch him scream and cry like a silly mspaint strawman comic man. Then you can do it to your past self. Then go mad with the power of throwing things.

The Fundaments: How Do I Shot Web?

I wrote this section after all the others because I realized too late that some of you might not even know the basics of weaponizing your Sylladex. That’s sad and pathetic, but it’s not unlikely, and best to put it here now rather than get accused of putting the cart before the horse later. Basically, you know how if your Sylladex is full, if you captchalogue something else, it goes flying out at high speeds? This is the mechanic you are exploiting. Catchaloguing an item such that it ejects something you’re holding on. The following section will be divided into Taos (even more fundamentals) and Zens (more advanced tricks), because I read a book that did this once and I thought that was cool.

Also, you should know that Hope players will be better than you at this. [Eject] is a Hope-exclusive ability that automatically ejects something from their Sylladex, and it’s very easy to learn, and it completely removes half the challenge from weaponizing your Sylladex (that is, finding something to put into the thing). While you’re scrambling for rocks so you can launch your fridge, they’ll be launching fridges at a whim. If you’re not a Hope player, then do what everyone else does. Bitch about it and move on.

Tao of Sylladex Strife: Know Your Fetch Modus

If you’re going to be using your Sylladex to fight, know how it works. Even babies know how to pick stuff up, but sometimes babies get confused by how their particular Fetch Modus actually works. And maybe you’ll get confused even if you’re not a baby (read: teenager), particularly if you get dropped into a new Session and the guy whose place you’re taking is a hipster and decided to grab one of the most esoteric Fetch Modi known to man. So make sure, before you even THINK of mis-using your Sylladex for violent purposes, that you understand how it works. And check the back, because there might be settings.

Once you’ve done that, you need to re-learn it again. This time, understand how it works in combat. Particularly, how does it eject, and how can you use it? FIFO and FILO Sylladice will eject the earliest item. Hashmap ejects the item occupying the slot you’re attempting to fill. Tree doesn’t eject so much as stuff falls. Array is wonderful for inventory management (even though I prefer Index), but it ejects stuff randomly. Enabling the “detect collisions” setting also makes inventory management easier, but considerably slows down the speed at which you can weaponize your Sylladex. How long does it take to actually captchalogue items? Is it complicated, or unwieldy? When something gets ejected, how does it fly? It’s somewhat complex, re-assessing your understanding of your Sylladex, but some general tips are as follows.

Knowing what will eject is better than random ejection.

More space means more stockpiling, but it becomes harder to keep track of your stuff.

Less space means you know your inventory better, but you have less room to maneuver and can’t stockpile as well.

Turn off “detect collisions” if you want to use your Sylladex in battle.

Short and uncomplicated captchalogue mechanics are better.

Tao of Sylladex Strife: Know Your Inventory

Now that you understand how your Fetch Modus functions, you need to understand its contents. Your Sylladex will serve two functions. An inventory, and an arsenal. “Inventory” basically means “stuff for use in puzzles and alchemy”, “arsenal” means “stuff I will use to commit murder with”. Just as it’s good to have a Fetch Modus that can serve those two functions, it’s good to have a balanced inventory. Key items, and tossable junk items. It’s also important that you know what’s going to be used. Safely take out keys, and toss your dishwasher, not the Glass Orb of Not Softlocking The Game.

As for your arsenal, understand what does and doesn’t make an effective weapon. Straight razors and sharp and fly fast and long, but they’re small and might break. Fridges are big and heavy, so they’ll do a lot of damage, but also destroy the environment and have bad range. Make sure as shit you’re out of range of your impact bombs when you let them loose, and don’t toss garden gnomes if you’re trying to knock back a Giclops. While they fill the role of bullets (with the Sylladex as the gun), they’re more like specialized tools that are all used by hurling them at people you don’t like.

Tao of Sylladex Strife: Know Your Surroundings.

Understanding your battlefield is not only important in general warfare, it’s also important when considering your throwables. While most Players who stick to their guns (so to speak) will mainly traverse their Land only looking for that which is essential to winning the game, you need to traverse it while understanding it on two levels.

The first level is the Strategic Level. Understanding your Land as a whole, and how to utilize the TOYS (Tools Of Your Surroundings) within. If you find yourself low on Sylladex weapons, where you can stock up, and what will you be stocking up on? What’s the fastest route to those locations from where you are? Does a certain location have better weaponry for the specific foes you’ll face later on? Stuff like that.

The second level is the Tactical Level. This is understanding your immediate surroundings while in a fight. What items can you quickly get to? Which ones should be used for ejection, which are best for softening the enemy up, and which are best for dealing lethal blows? Is it at all possible to make new items, like smashing the tile floors or breaking a window and captchaloguing the ensuing debris?

It’s a bit difficult to give blanket lessons on this Tao, but it’s always keep an analytical eye. You should know where your TOYS are before you need them, lest you get caught with your pants down.

Zen of Sylladex Strife: Art of the Adventure Gamer

You could tag SBURB as a lot of games. AR MMO survival psychological action adventure with house sim elements. Early-access too, considering how shitty it is. But don’t forget the adventure part. Have you ever played those point-and-click adventure games like Monkey Island or Sam & Max, and been amused with how the protagonists will take completely random and sometimes absurd objects because they could be useful? Well stop smiling, because they’re always right and you need to start doing that too.

First of all, you should already have been doing that. SBURB is also a puzzle game, and not only can potentially any item help you with puzzles, but every item could be useful for Alchemy purposes. Well now you need to add “killing stuff” to the list of potential uses for every item. Diagnose yourself with severe kleptomania and start acting like it. Grab everything you can! Use everything on everything! Stack up on Captchalogue Cards! Seriously, they’re dirt cheap for the Alchemiter. And speaking of Alchemy...

Zen of Sylladex Strife: Alchemy Isn’t Just For Weapons

Everybody loves going down to their Alchemy Pad and making new weapons, new armor, new tools, and a whole lot of useless bullshit. It reminds them of the satisfaction of upgrading their equipment or buying a new level of gear in the other video games they’ve played. Those video games, however, also tend to teach you that upgrading your ammunition or spending money on special ammo is a waste of time. It is, but not necessarily in SBURB. While improvised weaponry for Sylladex fighting is comparable to ammo, the ease of Alchemy means that not only is is usually cheap to make “upgraded ammo”, but they can be pretty effective. For example, throwing a couch at someone will hurt. Steel nails are very easy to acquire. A bit of Grist and the || function later, and you’re throwing a steel couch at someone. Not to mention, like that couch, some ammo is easy to retrieve. So next time you settle down to celebrate Gristmas, consider loading your Sylladex with some harmful objects.

Zen of Sylladex Strife: Mod Your Modus

Now that you know you should know your Sylladex, you should begin experimenting with it. If you can, grab a Modus Control Deck and a couple of extra Fetch Modii. If not, then you could try Alchemy or perhaps programming. Mix-and-match modii until you have something stronger, then once you’re settled, get to understanding that. Try to find a way to circumvent the weaknesses of the one you’re currently using. It’s kind of like sitting down at a gun bench, except your gun should also be able to carry stuff effectively, and is infinitely more confusing to comprehend.

Speaking of the Modus Control Deck, remember that you can use it to change the Fetch Modus you’re currently using. It’s possible to change Fetch Modii manually, but I find the MCD is more elegant and simple. So it might be a good idea to have several Modii for several occasions, and use the one you think you’ll be needing. For example, use something Inventory-suited like Index when exploring, and when you’re expecting a fighter, switch to something Arsenal-suited like Fingerbands. Just remember to not displace the MCD, or you’ll be running around with the one you’re using forever.

Zen of Sylladex Strife: Fighting At Full Power

This is the Zen that makes you feel like a warrior. If you intend to fight with your Sylladex, you need to remember that it is one of at least two weapons at your disposal. You also have a Strife Specibus. You must use both if you want to truly succeed. Throw something heavy at a Giclops, then pepper him with bullets. When locking blades with a Lich, stun him with a surprise vase, then riposte. I once saw a guy with Hammerkind augment the swing of his sledge with a safe going at breakneck speed, so his strike went at terminal velocity and tore a Basilisk in half. You’re going to have to learn how your Strife Specibus factors into all of this, and probably practice, but by mixing conventional warfare with captchalogue warfare, you become significantly harder to predict, and much more deadly.

Predictions compilation for posterity and clownery

If I’m wrong and you read this no you didn’t ❤️

Long post warning ⚠️ cause i’m gonna just randomly word vomit my thoughts

—open/shut or really basic motw case. it’s resolved quickly or is super basic and only a vehicle for Emotions like most episodes but dialed up to a 100. Probability? 80%.

—carry on my wayward son in the road so far AND end credits.

—Jack is like Surprise Bitch

—Becky cameo (not as Author but more of a reunion/redemption catch up with you and she’s happy for them? Idk) or at the very least a reference to what she said like......laundry.

—Dean’s trying to live a semi-chill hunter life but he’s trying really really hard to distract himself from feeling sad things and spends too much cleaning guns. But no “unhealthy” things this time. Mostly.

it’s his idea for the case because he’s restless and sad

Sam’s idea to help dean and himself

It’s literally 50/50

—Either a big Reveal to the audience at the beginning or only hints at the beginning and we find cas when dean does. I think in a way dean will rescue cas but it won’t be from the empty (unpopular opinion i’m just trying to be realistic). I’m getting the vibes that the episode will be simplistic in plot so it can be big on feelings so I have little hope for a flashy rescue.

—The Empty is just like....ugh whatever just let me sleep get your happiness far far far far away from me. 

— OR Cas is a Real Boy because feelings so he’s kicked out?

—crackpot theory: Chucks dies of the Rona and it kickstarts the cas/empty plot somehow

—Sam is gonna see some HintsTM cause he’ll similarly be pining after Eileen. I’m thinking WILD card guess: he finds something like the jacket with the hand print or a picture of cas or a letter or a mix tape IDK something! also sees dean ignore a waitress flirting or something, in a diner. 

—Dean decides not to eat pie *shock horror* he eats nothing or gets something unexpected (update after I wrote this I haven’t seen it but there’s a promo with a pie face in his face??)

—More likely: Sam’s gonna reminisce about eileen or their childhood for old time’s sake. Obligatory John and Mary reference.

—BARN callbacks(/red herring?) but perhaps not the full reunion, maybe he shows up and Something Happens. Or we get a big explosion or see a light hear some shit like cas voice and they leave the barn after killing off monsters

—“I am out with lanterns looking for myself” moment either with cas or dean idk but something like it for the Lamp/Light Reference. Potentially leading us to...

—GRACE TREE 🌳 I’m going all-in on this one and human Cas lads 🤡 Mrs Obama it’s been an honor cas as a human I’m calling it. OR he will be soon, the s8 parallels are strong with this one.

—purgatory 2.0 callback with dean praying or thinking about it (bonus points if it’s at the tree)

—TREE again! (or first time): adam and eve paralells is the choice also anna duh but this time the way the Audience (us) wanted 

 “Freedom is a length of rope” parallel/foil > jane eyre-esque moment  “I am no bird and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will” with Cas as a human   

—Pizzaman/babysitter reference

—someone says the word miracle (I’m assuming I got this one in the bag? Lol clowning)

—They get a dog (dean: cas, Sam: an actual dog if not also Eileen *shh* I’m manifesting)

—any combinations of the main cast opens up the new Roadhouse obviously

Truly Wish Fulfillment Category 

(if I get any of this spot on I’m taking a personal day off work asap)

—KISS next to tree! (or impala) . . . under a light 

—dean confession is minimal but packs a punch and better articulated than he gives himself credit for. Miracles, angel feelings, yada yada I love you. If he mentions either or both of his parents (and zeppelin) I will take a trip to Canada at the first opportunity. ((If he says any iteration of brother, pal, buddy etc to cas or IT IS LEFT AMBIGUOUS I will never forgive Andrew for his crimes))

—Crackpot clowning: anna/dean:deancas sex in the impala parallel I will get a spn inspired tattoo 

—FLASHFORWARD: sam and eileen, married kids hunter-archivists researchers. Dean and cas as cesar and jesse but also run the roadhouse. Family regularly gets together and eats pizza and *clown nose HONK HONK* dean and cas slow dance (just typing that felt like a ginx i hate myself rn)

SHUT UP I’m manifesting !

The Golden Knight pt 27 Happily Ever After (the End)

Masterlist / Previous

Word Count: 509

Warnings: The ending!!! Finally

Ellie collapsed as the knife broke her skin, but gasped and pulled the blade out when she realized it had been useless against herself.  She was human again as the knife fell next to her in a clatter.

“NO!”  Eve’s anger was obvious as she attacked the brothers and bit Dean on the neck.  A move she regretted instantly as the Phoenix ash took effect destroying her body and essence.  The newly formed Jefferson Starships disintegrated around them, leaving them utterly alone.

“Are you alright?”  Ellie asked as she stood and examined Dean’s neck.

“Fine, caught the bitch by surprise didn’t I?”  He smirked.  Bobby and Sam were still weary around her, but she had to be understanding to that.

“I’m sorry,”  She said bowing her head and moving away from Dean.

“It doesn’t matter, you pulled through in the end,”  Sam said as he rolled his shoulders back and placed a cloth and pressure on Dean’s wound.

“Why didn’t you die?”  Bobby asked looking at her and picking up the knife.

“It’s not silver,”  Ellie answered, looking around for the imp.  “I’m apparently immune to everything else.”

“If you’re an alpha that makes sense,”  Sam said looking at Bobby for confirmation.  The older man nodded his head then sheathed the blade.

“It’ll be good to have you on our team if you are on our team,”  Bobby suggested the question.

“I think I am,”  She picked up the imp and dragged it out to the center of the room.  “Show yourself.”

“I don’t think so, mutt,”  It hissed.  “You’re friends will lose it if they see me.”

“Liar,”  She growled.

“Think about where you found me, the spiral?  Realm of madness…”  It shrugged like it was obvious.  “No one that hasn’t been there will be able to see me.”

“Wanna clue us in?”  Dean asked breaking her interrogation.  

“How do I get rid of you Imp?”  She asked ignoring Dean’s question.

“I’m yours, but you won’t see me until you mess up again.  Have fun,”  It disappeared in a poof.

“It’s gone,”  Ellie said straightening her back.  “I think everything is safe for now.”

“What about you?  Are you gonna lose control again?”  Bobby asked.

“No I’ve got it under control I think.  Let’s go home?”  She sighed deeply at the thought of being curled up with Dean again after all this time.  

When they got back to Bobby’s and She was laying with Dean, she realized it was better than she remembered.

“You love me?”  Dean asked wrapping around her tightly.

“Yeah, sorry.  I thought I was gonna die.  Besides I thought you knew that?”  Ellie asked looking at him over her shoulder.

“I mean, I did, ever since I shot you when you saved me from that werewolf.  But I haven’t really told you.  I love you.”  He kissed her cheek gingerly.  “We can beat anything that comes at us.”

His statement was final and left nothing for Ellie to say about it.  She wiggled her rear and closed her eyes for a well-deserved sleep.

GOT Series Finale thoughts & musings SPOILERS OBVIOUSLY

I don’t think any of us expected the writing to be good, so let’s get that out of the way since it hasn’t been good for a generous two seasons, an honest three, and a arguable four. 

The biggest flaw imo has been how rushed everything is, and you really felt it in this episode, which is ironic because it was very slow and choppy. The pacing this episode was atrocious imo. 

Now onto thoughts I had while watching this episode: 

-Why was Arya there are the beginning? They showed her leaving last episode, now she’s stuck around, but isn’t going to even try to kill Dany, what’s the point? And then she does leave, but we don’t see it? Very odd decision. 

-Minor but when did Dany have time to get that outfit? I appears to be like the next day at latest wth lmao

-I don’t understand the writing for Tyrion at all. Why would be confront her so publicly, why even vocalize how you feel towards it? That’s already been made plenty clear...My only thought is that he was so despondent that he was wrong and had killed Varys believing in Dany that he just figured it was time for him to die, but all in all that’s very odd. And why not just kill him there tbh? She did that with Varys. Seems like plot armour, I’m afraid. 

-”the war is over now” WHY IS JON SO STUPID? Jon has always been a bit dim like Ned but holy fuck they wrote him so trash this season, especially this episode. 

-I marked and wrote “32 minutes in and it’s moving very slowly” sure there’s cool shots of tyrant Dany giving epic speeches but c’mon 

-Dany-Jon kiss and kill scene feels very soap opera omg

-wrote: “THANK FUCK SHE’S DEAD”

-THOUGH, it seemed way to easy. With how suspicious she and Greyworm have been over Jon and his ilk, very odd that it was that simple all in all. 

-Honestly, I didn’t expect Drogon to outlive his mama, Thought they’d have to kill him to get to her

-uhhhh where is he taking her LOL 

-Jon shoulda just cleaned that shit up and been like Drogon took her for a ride dunno what happened yo

-Honestly, the pacing and transitions this episode are godawful, perhaps the worst they’ve ever been 

-I hate this trash council scene. The Edmure stuff is painful. Why bring him back like this? I mean they didn’t even bother acknowledging him and this is them bringing him back wtf Awkward and not funny the whole scene is odd, except for Sam, Tyrion and Sansa’s parts

-Oh hello Robyn Arynn of the Teat

-I mean, I don’t get the people thinking either Dany or Jon was gonna take the throne so....

-Ok, Bran is king but it’s kinda lame how they’ve written him since he’s basically a personality-less bag of trash these days

-Oh and his story isn’t the most interesting Tyrion, even your’s is more interesting, don’t lie, Imp

-So is Bran a villain or nah? I mean he knew all this was gonna go down and didn’t care to try and change any of it? Or what? I’m suspicious of this broken bitch

-57 endings commence!

-This whole bitch one long epilogue that doesn’t tell us shit LOL

Ok things I did like, to one degree or another: 

-TYRION AND SANSA SURVIVED THANK YOU BABY JESUS

-Sansa talking bout how Bran’s dick is also broke not just his legs okay good

-Sansa standing up for the North and becoming an independent queen

-Tyrion back at the council, and the council in general, very good 

-Jon finally reuniting with Ghost (thought he would) and being married to Torumd his pretty cool. Always liked him with Wilding redheads over dragon bitches anyway. 

-Sansa’s coronation outfit stole this whole bitch show, ya’ll better bow down, Littlefinger wanking off in hell over this and you know it

-Davos finally getting some respect, he deserves more and ya’ll know it 

-Arya becoming Christopher Colombus and going off to colonize Americos for the North, niiiiiiiice 

IN CONCLUSION

this is all I can think of right now. 

RIP GOT 

[lawonderlandwriter]

A list of things that confuse me

So let me get this straight:

Apparently...

Jon is “undercover” and is only playing Daenerys, pretending to be in love with her (and is really in love with Sansa), in order to get her to help in the War for the Dawn. BUT because of an early script leak saying Daenerys summoned Jon to her room to discuss something in private (despite this being scrapped in the final version of the episode and Daenerys looking genuinely surprised to see Jon when she opens her cabin door), Daenerys actually “raped” Jon...even though he’s the one taking charge during sex, flipping her on her back, setting the pace of their kissing, action, etc. etc. But even though he is being “raped” Jon is seducing Daenerys to ensure her continued support...?

Apparently...

D&D are idiots when it comes to writing Sansa, making her seem selfish and full of herself when she tells Arya “You should be on your knees thanking me...Jon lost the Battle of the Bastards...The Knights of the Vale came for me...” BUT when it comes to Daenerys being written as much darker than BookDaenerys, it’s because D&D are trying to make it more obvious to the audience that she’s actually an antagonist and is going to turn against our gang in Season 8.

Apparently...

Robert Baratheon is widely acknowledged as a pig, drunk, adulterer, wife abuser, all around horrible guy. He called Cersei “Lyanna” when they were having sex on their wedding night. BUT a certain part of the fandom thinks it would be hilarious or is actually hoping that during a Jon/Daenerys sex scene in Season 8, Jon will call Daenerys “Sansa.”

Apparently...

People want Jon to listen to Sansa’s advice, her opinions, make her like an acting Queen where her words goes. Sansa tells Jon is 7x01 what a legitimate threat Cersei is “You’ve been so consumed with the enemy to the North, you’ve forgotten about the one to the South...We still have a Wall between us and the Night King, there’s nothing between us and Cersei...You’re the military man but I know her...Everyone who’s ever crossed her, she’s found a way to murder...” BUT when Daenerys is concerned about Cersei as a threat to the parts of Westeros she currently holds and the people there “I can’t forget what I saw North of The Wall, and I can’t pretend Cersei won't take back half the country the moment I march North...” suddenly Daenerys is a selfish bitch for wanting to protect her people from Cersei and she should just go North, neglecting the welfare of her people in the South.

Apparently...

People think Daenerys is pretentious and ridiculous when she calls herself Queen and all her accomplishments are named off, pointing to the Tywin Lannister quote “Any man who must say I am the king is no true king...” BUT they cheer when Jon “stands up” to her by telling her “I am a King” during the war room meeting about going on the wight hunt.

Apparently...

Daenerys is selfish for wanting a truce with Cersei and the whole idea of the wight hunt is for her benefit and her benefit alone...BUT when she risks her life to go save Jon (the man she loves) and co from the entire army of the dead, she’s stupid for getting her dragon killed and risking her life, claiming her death would mean the Dothraki would then reek havoc on all of Westeros.

Apparently...

Sansa has suffered THE MOST in the series because she was held prisoner by the Lannisters, she was abused by Joffrey and his King’s Guard, and she was raped by Ramsay...BUT Daenerys, who was also raped by her husband that she was forced to marry, held captive and beaten by the Dothraki, was raised on the run with her sexually, physically, and verbally abusive brother for the whole of her childhood has “had everything handed to her simply because she has dragons” and she doesn’t deserve to be happy but instead will turn into a villain that requires vanquishing.

Apparently...

When Jon is still in the Night’s Watch and it’s the battle against the wildlings and he tells Ed to “drop fire on them” if the wildlings attempt to breech the gate with the mammoths (even though Jon KNOWS that Mance only wants to get them south of The Wall to keep them safe from the army of the dead), it’s okay...BUT when Daenerys burns the Tarly’s for refusing to bend the knee, she’s a tyrant and a “Mad Queen” for using fire to kill an enemy.

Apparently...

Speaking of killing people and executions...Though it’s Stark tradition to “swing the sword” when the person passes the sentence, Sansa doesn’t kill her enemies that she sentences to die (Baelish and Ramsay), it’s okay for her to let someone else (or something) do her bidding...BUT when Daenerys uses the dragons to execute people or Daario, she’s weak and/or also mad.

Apparently...

Sansa stans hate the idea of Jon being subservient to Daenerys and being her “King Consort” of the Seven Kingdoms...BUT they want Sansa to be Queen in the North and use her influence as a Stark and as Queen to “forgive” Jon for his bending the knee to Dany, be his shelter from the wrath/stupidity/judgement of the Northern Lords once it comes out that he’s a Targaryen, and basically be her King Consort instead.

Apparently...

When early script leaks of Season 7 say things that point to Daenerys being a “tyrant” - summing Jon to her room, using the word “submission” when it came to Jon bending the knee - also cutting the Ghost scene where Jon tells him to “keep her safe for me” (even though another earlier leak this was only worded as “keep anyone safe who’s name is Stark...”) all of that is legitimate...BUT when there are parts of scripts posted that mention things like Jon realizing he’s in love with Daenerys when she pledges to help fight the Night King (boat scene), Jon oggling Dany on the cliffs when she’s watching the dragons, Jon and Dany’s moment in the Dragonpit being romantic, Jon and Dany being mutually attracted to each other when they’re in the cave together, and Jon and Dany MAKING LOVE during the boatsex scene (because WHY would it be anything else???), all of that is potentially “fake”  even though they’re from the same script leaks as the ones mentioning the Ghost scene and Dany summoning Jon to her room.

Apparently...

Speaking of sources, when Liam Cunningham “liked” a Jonsa video on Twitter, it’s proof that Jonsa is happening...BUT when the actors, writers, show runners, directors, and the music composer ALL SAY that Jon and Daenerys are in love, that they slowly fall for each other over the progression of the season, that their getting together is what George RR Martin had planned all along and is the point of the entire series...it’s in an attempt to throw off the audience to the “fact” that Jonsa is actually endgame -- that Jon is somehow “undercover” OR Daenerys will die and Jon will fall in love with Sansa after.

Here’s the thing: 

All the “evidence” the Jonsa stans point to as “proof” that Jonsa is actually happening...you can use the SAME logic and weak evidence to prove just about anything you damn well please. Facial expressions, wordings of letters, prophecies, scrapped script summaries, book quotes where the characters are thinking about things, etc. etc. 

I’m sure if I look hard enough, I will find a few pieces of “evidence” that points to Theon growing his cock back and ending up on the Iron Throne. 

I don’t care that people ship Jonsa. I’ve even read a few Jonsa fics (THAT DON’T SHIT ALL OVER DANY’S CHARACTER) that were incredibly well written. Ship whatever the fuck you want. It’s fun.

But stop using all these pieces of “evidence” to make Dany out to be a villain when she's not. She’s never done anything worse than any other character - NO this does not excuse questionable actions but all the heroes on GoT are problematic heroes. 

And I’m sorry, but Jonsa just isn’t happening. The “evidence” used to support it is super cherry picking and conveniently leaving out all the other pieces that clearly point to what is already the canon, endgame ship - Jonerys. 

You wanna harp on the old script leaks, you gotta acknowledge the script lines that say Jon and Dany are in love. You wanna harp on Jon and Sansa thinking of each other fondly in their respective POV chapters of ASOIAF, you gotta acknowledge the chapters of the other Stark children where they also think of their other siblings. You wanna talk about the parallels between Jon and Sansa when Sansa is in the Vale, you gotta acknowledge the parallels between the entire journey Jon and Dany go on respectively throughout the fucking series. OKAY? 

And I’m not gonna be nice and tag this J0nsa instead of Jonsa because I want people to see what hypocrites they are and how prejudice they are of a character (Dany) who, in actuality, has a lot more in common with their fave girl (Sansa) than they would ever like to admit.

What are my hopes for next season? 

Jon and Dany live. They have the family they always wanted but neither thought was ever possible. They rule jointly together as equals. Sansa winds up Lady of Winterfell and Wardeness of the North with a husband her age (please not Tyrion or Sandor), who makes her happy...I’m hoping Pod. I want Arya and Gendry to get together. I want Tyrion to be respected as Hand to the King and Queen and Lord of Casterly Rock and Warden of the West and have his own vineyard where he makes The Imps Delight. I want Sam and Gilly to grow old together with little Sam in Hornhill and for Sam to write A Song of Ice and Fire, I want Jaime and Brienne to admit their feelings for each other, possibly share a love scene, and for Brienne to have Jaime’s child, I want Tormund and Ed to survive, I want Missandei and Grey Worm to find peace and happiness, I want Theon and Yara to kill Euron and take back the Iron Islands, I want Sandor to get his revenge on his brother, I want the Golden Company to end up pledging to Jon and Dany, I want Dadvos to make little wooden toys for all his adopted sons’ children (Gendrya kids, Jonerys kids), I want the Night King to be defeated, I want Bran to snap out of his robotness and be himself again and apologize to Meera, I want Cersei to go down in a blaze of glory, I want Ghost to meet a lady direwolf and make more little direwolf puppies, I want Drogon and Rhaegal to fly off and be free to roam the world but still know that Daenerys is their mother and occasionally fly back to Dragonstone to visit, and last but not least...I WANT BRONN TO GET HIS FUCKING CASTLE!

See what I did there? I described everything I want to happen next season without being totally horrible and unnecessarily hating on any specific character. Wow. It is possible.

Starksgiving in the north

It was a bizarre Holiday in the North when the crippled son in the polyamory relationship actually started to look like their mother's favorite because next to the rest of them, Bran sitting in Meera's lap while holding Jojen's hand didn't even register in Catelyn's 'outrageous' scale. That's how awkward Thanksgiving was. To put it simply, family was family and guest right was a Northern tradition, so everyone the elder Starks considered part of their clan had taken the excuse of Thanksgiving Guest right to introduce their significant others to Ned and Catelyn, mainly because it was the one night nobody could murder anybody else at the dinner table. So far there were two Lannisters, a Targaryen, one Frey, a wildling and the lovechild of Robert Baratheon.... On a scale of one to ten, Gendry, unsurprisingly, was winning the popularity contest. "They like you!" Arya smiled proudly squeezing Gendry's bicep "I knew mom and dad would love you, but it's nice to have it confirmed, I won't need to threaten anybody with bodily harm now" "Your dad offered me a job closer to Winterfell do you think I should take it?" Gendry looked as happy as Arya, in this rag tag group of people it was nice to know he was considered the lesser of all evils "I mean fleabottom gave me my roots but you know me, where you go I go" "Winterfell? With Jory and dad's goons patrolling 24/7" Arya snorted "I would rather move to King's Landing, maybe take up that internship Illirio offered me, no need for you to bend to my dad's orders" "Aww does this mean you're my girlfriend now?" Gendry grinned earning himself a swat in the head from Arya "Shut up Gendry" Arya snorted then she looked at the imp sitting on her left "Hanging in there professor Tyrion?" "Absolutely" Tyrion nodded to Arya before turning to his right "Your father looks like he's on the verge of having a stroke" Tyrion whispered to Sansa from his seat next to her "please tell me he doesn't have heart problems"   "After today he might develop some" Sansa replied in the same hush tone "but didn't worry, he'll adore you once he gets to know you" "Before or after your mother murders me?" Sansa actually paused to think about it "just don't leave my side for the rest of the night and she won't have a chance to get you alone" Tyrion replied something that sounded vaguely like "Thank seven your aunt Lysa isn't here" Across from them Danny sent Tyrion a Targaryen glare "If we get out of here alive Jon, I swear I will burn you for talking me into this" Danny hissed picking her fork up "Your aunt is glaring daggers at me and Tyrion was supposed to bail me out, instead I find out he's here too" "She glares daggers at everyone, don't take it personally, my uncle seems to like you" Jon tried to reason with the love of his life "Also you're not the only one who's wondering what's up with Tyrion and Sansa, I'm feeling so betrayed" "Your uncle just asked me if unionizing the Unsullied was my idea!" Danny grumbled squeezing Jon's hand angrily "What Masters.ltd was doing with them was slavery, of course unionizing them was the least I could do" "At least mom hasn't brought up your exes yet" Robb advised passing the sliced boar to Jon and the peas to Danny "she did with us" "Yes, I know I'm not a successful Surgeon in Afghanistan but Mrs Stark signing Talisa praises as soon as she saw me was the worst" a jaded Roslin agreed sending Danny a sympathetic look "Thanksgiving with Roose and Walda would have been less painful... even accounting for Ramsey" "Relax, Aunt Catelyn is just mad that Robb dumped Talisa and stole Roslin from uncle Edmure" Jon snorted refilling Danny's glass "nothing some ass kissing from Robb won't cure" "Wait really you dated his uncle?" Danny perked up with a new appreciation for her boyfriend's family "He's a hot Uncle" Sansa, Arya and Bran chimed in from across the table "Who's a hot Uncle?" Catelyn snapped momentarily diverted away from her conversation with Sam and Gilly. "Uncle Benjen" Robb and Jon replied at the same time sounding eerily like the younger wolves. Pacified Catelyn muttered a 'cant argue with that' and turned back to discussing Sam's plans to legally recognize Gilly's son as his. "When in doubt, blame it on the lone ranger" Tyrion raised his cup to Jon, On Danny's quizzical look he rolled his eyes "You haven't met Benjen ok, he's like a male Lyanna Stark, all northern attraction with none of Ned's calories" "I would do him" Meera agreed "Who wouldn't" Tyrion muttered before Sansa kicked his chair under the table "I mean..." Tyrion coughed "No Sansa I don't envy Bran or his luck with dating two people of the same family" "And you better stay that way" Sansa ordered with mock seriousness From his seat next to their mother little Rickonn took a picture of Tyrion's puppy face and sent it to Arya with the caption "#totallyWhipped" which made Gendry snicker when he saw it "It's all right we all know some Lannisters have weird family proclivities..." Robb side eyed Jamie who was blissfully pretending to not be hearing the conversation while feeding Brienne some cake and looking at her like if she was his personal Azor Ahai  "How in the world did THAT  one get tangled up with the Queen Bitch? Twincest aside, your brother is a big softie" Tyrion sighed, well at least he hadn't been the one to say it "Honestly his therapist said he has deeply rooted masochist tendencies that makes him feel attracted to blond women who can't wait to beat him up" he clarified after a brief hesitation "apparently it's some subconscious mommy issues" The whole table went "Ohhh" and a few "I knew it" were directed to Jamie, who now was trying and failing to get a blushing Brienne to hold his hand above the table and in plain view of the Stark matriarch "I can't even watch" Tyrion shook his head "have you ever seen a Lannister more besotted?" "I have" Danny snorts raising a mocking eyebrow at him making Sansa blush. Next to Brienne, Jamie discreetly rolled his eyes "Wench this is the first time someone has ever roped me into a party just to make Tyrion look good in comparison" he whispered eying Catelyn Stark, who was per usual sniffing disappointedly whenever she looked at him "usually it's the other way around" "If I had known that was the plan" Brienne said back "I wouldn't have asked you to come, I expected this type of subterfuge from Arya, but SANSA?" The Amazon glared at Jamie "Your brother is a terrible influence on her" "Hey, don't start blaming Tyrion, I'll have you know that before this, my brother never, ever, crossed that line with a student and he's had prettier girls than Sansa try to get into his pants" Jamie returned Brienne's glare "Your saintly princess probably seduced Tyrion with Stark magic, using the direwolf superpowers that made Raegar screw the country for Lyanna" "Heard that" Jon muttered rolling his eyes as he always did whenever anybody implied that his mother had been some kind of super seductress "Still don't believe it" Brienne ignored Jon and was about to retort something when Ned Stark cleared his throat and decided to put the subject of her conversation in the hotspot. "So Tyrion, what are your intentions towards my daughter?" Every single sound in the table died  and Sansa's grip on the imp's hand tightened when all eyes swung to Tyrion and her. But Tyrion pretended that he wasn't totally intimidated by Ned (being a Lannister had it's uses when it came to faking bravado) "My intentions are only to make her happy, Sansa is the most wonderful person I've ever met" "Yes she is and as such she should be treated with care and respect don't you think?" Ned agreed narrowing his eyes "The highest respect" Tyrion resisted the urge to pull the collar of his shirt, did Sansa's dad know about the times he slept over at her condo? Did Catelyn? "Tell me about your job? I heard your profession doesn't pay as much as it used to in this recession" Ned continued lazily, serving himself more turkey. Somebody (Roslin) started to cough what appeared to be a very large bone while trying to hide her laughter, Robb sympathetically patted her back under the glaring eyes of his mother while secretly hiding his own smile. "Which is why I'm planning on retiring from KL.U after this semester and giving my full attention to my position in Targaryen Corporations, we really think that we can do some good in Westeros now that Higharden Grain and Dorne Weaponry are offering Daenerys their sponsorship" Tyrion tried directing the conversation into a topic he was good with. Sansa and Danny gave Tyrion a look that said 'really?' to which the imp nodded "That sounds great let me know when we can propose a partnership between the Wildling foundations, Tormund would love to hear from you" Jon like always was one step ahead but his aunt and uncle were like dogs with a bone "No talking business at the table Jon" Catelyn chided sweetly passing the pumpkin bread Ned wasn't deterred "Speaking from experience a job that earns that kind of gold that requires the average man to spend a lot of time away from their loved ones, what did you say you were planning to do about that again?" Was there no winning with this man? First he implied Tyrion didn't make enough money to support Sansa, then he was spending too much time caring about money? "Targaryen Corporations is a big operation Mr Stark, I assure you that delegating is not hard when you work with a team like ours" he raised his glass to Danny "That one there is the best judge of character I know" "What can I say, I want the best results so I hire the best people" Daenerys agreed "But Sansa is still young, I don't suppose you can keep up with the pace of a university student all the time can you Tyrion?" Catelyn commented smiling at her daughter indulgently "She still has so much of life to explore" "On the contrary I think Sansa is one of the few young people I know who is clear about who she wants to be and where she wants her future to go" Tyrion felt the need to clarify in Sansa's behalf "I'm just lucky enough to be part of that journey" "And I'm lucky enough to have someone smart and witty to share it with" Sansa said warmly not even bothering to hide how happy his words made her. And then because Tyrion was a little shit under pressure he thought up the first diversion tactic he could think of before the Starks could grill him more and threw Jamie under the bus "BRIENNE, JAMIE IS PLANNING TO PROPOSE" he burst out which effectively cut off Ned and Catelyn train of thought "He's what!?" Brienne and (unsurprisingly) Catelyn Stark gasped at the same time Seeing that Tyrion's tactic was working Sansa hurried up to add "Lannister gold with a sapphire... I've seen him practice his speech a couple of times when I pick up Tyrion from Jamie's penthouse" "You pair of cunts! I was planning to make it special" Jamie groaned "you just ruined my life" "Relax Kingslayer, She's going to say yes, it's not like Brienne is not totally in love with you or something" Arya snorted then reconsidered when Brienne suddenly went red and Jamie's sad face turned into a gleeful smile "oh shit you didn't know" "No he didn't! Hell "I" didn't even know until two weeks ago, thank you Arya" Brienne muttered blushing furiously and then because she'd reached her breaking point she took a page out of the Lannister book and turned to Tyrion "Sansa has a a secret collection of Ewok plushies that she keeps in her bedroom because they all remind her of you" Tyrion choked on his wine "wait what? Sansa is that why you said it was okay if I didn't shave?" "Nooo, I swear, ok well, maybe a little" Sansa reminded herself why sharing a condo with Brienne and Arya was the worst idea ever when things like this happened, so out of embarrassment she turned to her sister's boyfriend "Gendry, that Thor shirt you love so much and you haven't found for weeks? You didn't really lose it, Arya stole it from Tobho Mott and uses it to sleep all the time, so saying Bri loves Jamie is like pot meeting kettle" Gendry's face went from quizzical to lovesick in five seconds flat "Aw, Arry you do like to see me shirtless, I knew that's why all my shirts started disappearing" "I don't! And that was private Sansa!" Arya snapped defensively, looking for her own target ( hopefully someone who didn't have dirt on her) and finding it in Robb who really had no business laughing the way he was "Roslin, old Walder didn't have a flat tire on my dad's last name day, he was just to embarrassed to show up with a black eye after Robb punched him bloody for calling you a useless ho" "Maester Tam told me father had to go to the hospital for internal bleeding, I can't believe it was you" Roslin groaned bringing her hands to her face "that explains why Fat Walda is the only one who will talk to me these days" "He deserved it and I don't regret it" Robb pouted unapologetically "besides it's nothing compared to what Jon did to Daario Naharis last week, at least I didn't humiliate someone on national TV out of pure unadultered jealousy" and That's when Robb heard Danny break her wine glass "You said it was a friendly duel on TV Jon, you said that it was all for charity! I knew it was a dick measuring contest goddamit, I should have said no when Daario goaded you into it" Daenerys said mortified, looking apologetically at Ned and Catelyn "I told him it was wrong to use his longsword" Jon who 'just came out to have fun and was now feeling so attacked' really didn't know how Thanksgiving had gotten so out of hand but he knew who's fault it was so he glared at Tyrion "Sansa, Tyrion writes sappy songs about you all the time and plays it in his place when you're not around, it's really sappy, terribly tooth rotting music that would hurt a self respecting male's ears...In case you're wondering why I don't crash at his place anymore" Sansa's face lit up "Tyrion you sing?..." "No way, no, I'm not doing it”

Meanwhile Ned and Catelyn exchanged tired glances as the bickering continued "Where did I go wrong in raising them?" Catelyn muttered taking a sip of wine "Let them be Cat, this is the most entertaining family get together we've had in ages" Ned chuckled thanking the seven for his wonderful family. Yes this was what Thanksgiving was all about, family, honesty and a lot of love...even if his kids were one mashed potato away from a food fight, Ned wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

An: HAPPY THANKSGIVING people that celebrate it, a note about Robb, normally I ship MargaeryxRobb, but Marg is the Type of wife that would make a good political ally while Roslin would actually be more comfortable backing Robb in the middle of a family squabble, because she’s a Frey and really compared to her family everyone is super normal.  So yay for Roslin! If you ship her and Robb, please tell me what’s their ship name.

The front door was ajar, Chris strode in angrily. She found Dean and Sam in her kitchen, sat at the table, drinking her coffee. At least Sam was drinking coffee, Dean had helped himself to a beer and was sat with his feet on the table.

“You broke into my house!” she shouted at Dean.

“Well nobody answered the door” He replied smiling insouciantly.

“In my defence I told him not to.” Sam interjected holding his hands up.

“Shut up Sam” Chris and Dean said simultaneously. Sam decided it was better to look at his boots.

“Where is Castiel, what have you done with him you bitch?” Dean demanded getting to his feet.

“I’m here Dean” Cas walked in the kitchen, carrying two brown paper bags. “I was getting the groceries from the car.” he added by way of explanation.

“You two have been grocery shopping, while I’ve been sat here thinking god knows what had happened to you, you two have been playing HOUSE?!”

“Well we did visit a witch, but its ok she is Christine’s aunt.”

“You’ve been meeting her family.” Dean shook his head.

Cas grinned “Fyi she is not a fan.”

“Ok, I can’t do this. Sam.”

“Chris I’m sorry we broke in, but I’ve been calling both of you all day. Tell me you would not have been a little concerned.” Sam looked at Chris, with his best kicked puppy expression.

“I turned my cell off” She admitted.

“As did I” Cas, embraced Chris from behind and kissed her cheek. “I’m sorry if you were concerned.”Dean just looked at them in disbelief.

“Is that my leather jacket?”

“So are you two staying the night?”Chris asked, “Or are you planning on dragging Cas home this very moment.”

“We will get a motel.” Dean snorted. Picking up his jacket. Cas looked upset.

“Look there’s not a decent motel until you get back to the city, I have two spare rooms. Please stay.” Chris tried to sound conciliatory, aware that Cas was smiling at Dean hopefully.

“Well I don’t fancy the drive back tonight, I’ll gladly stay.” Sam looked at his brother, “Come on Dean, you can’t really want to drive anywhere else tonight.” Dean looked round at all three of them, and gave up.

“Ok fine, just hope there is enough beer for me to cope with this.”

“Excellent!” Cas began unpacking the groceries, “I’ll cook.” The three humans looked at him shocked.

“Hang on, you cook now?” Dean asked dubiously, voicing what they were all thinking. Cas shrugged at them.

“How hard can it be.”

It was maybe ten minutes into the awkward silence that threatened to go on all night, that Sam decided enough was enough.“So your aunt is a witch?”

“Yeah, though she’s not really my aunty more like my sixteenth times great grandmother, she is the reason my Dad decided to settle here in Louisiana.”

“Wow, that’s kind of cool. isn’t it Dean?” Dean glowered at Sam, behind them Cas was happily chopping vegetables.

“She’s still a witch, I hate witches.”

“She protected my Dad from the BMOL, helped us hide.”

“Do you know what your Dad did that they didn’t like” Sam asked gently.

“No, I just know they wanted us dead. He’d never talk about it, even when he was dying.”

“I’m sorry.” Sam squeezed her hand. Uncomfortable Dean had got up and was prowling the contents of the kitchen shelves.

“Hey who is this?”he asked appreciably holding up a framed photo.

“That is my little sister could you put it back please.” Chris told him coldly.

“I’m sorry, I was just asking.” He still hadn’t put the picture down, Chris crossed the room and snatched it from his fingers, placing it very gently on the shelf, Sam watched his brother with mounting anger. “and who are these cheeky imps” Dean asked picking up another gilt edged frame. Chris took that from him as well, her face unreadable.

“These are my nephews” she touched the picture with a trembling finger, “This is Marcus and the baby was Luke.” Sam realised Cas had stopped chopping and was staring at Dean furiously. The sarcastic smile vanished from Dean’s face.

“What happened?”

“Demon, not quite a year ago. Sarah tried to get out of the life and she did for a while.”

“I am so sorry, I didn’t know. I’m an asshole, ask anyone, Cas will tell you. I thought maybe they were a friends kids.” Sam couldn’t remember the last time he had heard Dean try and back pedal so fast. Gently he took the picture and placed it back on the shelf. “I’m sorry” his brother repeated, then caught Chris in a bear hug, she returned it gingerly, after about thirty seconds Cas coughed.

“Dean, let go of my girlfriend.” Dean relinquished his hold and gave Chris his best ‘naughty boy’ smile. Chris almost laughed, Dean swaggered across the kitchen to where Cas was now frying onions with scientific concentration.

“I got to tell you brother, she smells so good”

“I know like warm honey.” Cas agreed smiling.

“Amen to that brother, and so very hot.”

“You have no idea” Cas told him with a wink and tossed a load of mushrooms into the pan. Dean made a sound half way between a groan and a laugh.

“You are going to tell me everything, Cas.”

“Dean help me choose some tunes?” Chris called to him.

“And she gets better, I’m sorry I doubted you Cas.” he said and clapped him on the shoulder.

“That was pretty damn good.” Dean wiped the last of the sauce off his plate with a crust of bread and chewed it slowly. Cas looked down at his own plate, a half embarrassed, half proud smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. Dean dropped his gaze as a familiar feeling washed over him. It was followed by a spike of intense anger when Chris, collecting the plates paused behind Cas and kissed him on the top of his head. She slid her fingers into his shirt for a moment, caressing Cas’ collar bone. She happened to look at Dean, he saw her skin pale, her expression briefly contorted with a spasm of something akin to pain. In response Dean felt his face flush and he forced himself to smile. Chris smiled back and carried the dishes away, but her movements were stiff and the dishes banged loudly against the kitchen counter as she put them down. Dean joined her by the sink as Sam asked Cas about some arcane piece of lore he was reading about on his tablet.

“Chris, I’m sorry about the way I’ve behaved.” he said quietly as he rinsed plates

“I know you are Dean.”

“We are both on the same side here after all. Are we good?”

“Well we both want the same thing, don’t we?.” Her eyes flicked towards the other end of the room. Dean bit his lip and said nothing, Chris took the final plate from him and dried it. “I’m going to lose him, I can feel it. The only question is how.” Dean really saw her then, perhaps the way Cas saw her. A glass with a crack in it, and he did not want to be the one to break her. He took a breath.

“I know, I feel the same way.” Dean admitted, his voice unsteady. He clasped her hand, she squeezed it back and pulled him into a tight hug.

“Should we hug too?”Sam said loudly.

“Dean, my girlfriend remember?” Dean let her go and grinned at Cas.

“Just bonding Cas.”He shared another haunted glance with Chris, and plastered a silly smile on his face. “you want me though, I can tell.”he raised an eyebrow a clear message to ‘play along’.

“Baby, I’d break you.”

“Promises, promises”

“You know this is making me uncomfortable.” Cas said in a slightly hurt tone of voice.

“Well its making me feel like I need a shower.”Sam laughed.

“Just banter boys, ain’t that right Chris?”

“Like I said I’d break you” Chris yawned. “I’m going to bed.” She announced, and walked out of the kitchen, stopping only to stoop down and kiss Cas fiercely. “Are you coming blue eyes?”

“Woah” Sam muttered and shook his head. Cas looked at his friends.

“I’m sorry, but I have to go to bed now.” he told them and shot out of his chair. Dean watched him go nonplussed.  

“Sam, tell me there’s more beer.” At that moment Cas reappeared his shirt was undone, his hair tousled.

“Just an FYI, you may want to turn the music up for the next hour or so” He raised his eyebrows at them and vanished again.

“Tell me he did not just say that..” Dean covered his face.

“Well, he seems happy, you still got a bad feeling about this?” Sam leaned over and turned Chris’ ipod up as the sound of Cas being very happy indeed filtered through the walls. Dean rolled his eyes.

“You know what Sam? I like Chris she seems sweet and I do think she cares about our little tree topper.”

“But?” Sam prompted.

“What kind of life can he offer her really?”Dean squeezed his hands together, and sighed. “Its not like they can live happily ever after, no kids, no growing old together. We’ve seen how this story ends, remember Kelly Kline?”Dean looked at his brother. “And yes, I still have a bad feeling.”

Cas missed sleep, odd how the thing he had found hardest to deal with when he was human, was the one thing he missed the most. At the bunker he used to listen in on Sam and Dean’s dreams, sooth away their nightmares. At least he had until Dean had mentioned how often Cas was a bit player in his night time imaginings, especially that one reoccurring dream neither of them would ever discuss. So he had withdrawn and spent the night hours distracting himself from loneliness by any means necessary. But now with Chris curled in his arms, he wished for sleep, he hungered for it. Just to rest with perfect trust in the arms of his beloved, not his only beloved he had to admit that, but the one who could accept what he had to give without injury. It was no good, he slipped out of bed, pulled on pants and padded silently down the hall.

He paused next to the guest rooms. Sam was curled on his side cuddled into his blanket, pillow scrunched up under his head. Cas smiled it was easy to see the child Sam had been, he seemed to go back to childhood in sleep. He closed the door, the second guest room was directly opposite the first, the door was open and Dean was sat up staring at him.

“Hey, what are you doing Cas?”

“Nothing, did I wake you?”

“No I’ll be honest I’ve not been to sleep yet.”

“Chris is asleep, I was going to sit on the porch. I do that sometimes.” He explained.

“Well, I’ll sit with you, I’m not tired.” He threw off his covers and reached for his jeans. Cas turned away so Dean wouldn’t see the blush that he felt blossoming on his face.

“I’ll see you downstairs.” Cas told him.

Cas sat on the swing seat and stared up at the sky. The far horizon was lit by the distant glow of New Orleans but above him a multitude of stars glittered in the heavens. Dean grunted as he sat down next to Cas.

“Here” he held out a tumbler of whiskey.

“That won’t do much for me.”

“Maybe, but I don’t want to drink alone” Dean had his own glass and the bottle, which he propped up on the step.

“Do you know how many worlds are out there Dean?, how many realms, dimensions and universes?”

“No, do you?”

“No, but I know this reality is cruel.”

“What’s wrong Cas.” Cas looked at Dean and shook his head.

“Choices Dean, that’s what’s wrong.”Cas tossed down the whiskey and held out his glass for more.

“What ever choice I make now I’m going to hurt someone I love, and that is not fair.” Cas laughed bitterly.”I don’t want to choose.”

“why do you have to choose? Look we will get Chris to move into the bunker, we will all be together, it will be fine.”

“No, it will not.”

“Why not Cas?”Cas wanted to shout that Dean knew why not, but what was the point?

“I really do love her you know.”

“Well, you do seem to be having really hot sex, a lot.” This was Dean lightening the mood Cas knew, he went along with it.

“yes we are.”

“You lucky bas-did you hear that?” a door swung shut somewhere, they both froze listening. “The house is warded?”

“Yes Heavily” another sound but from inside this time followed by a shout of alarm.

“That was Sam, come on”

They slipped quietly through the front door and up the stairs and found Sam standing over a body, he had the demon knife in one hand. “Sam what happened?” Dean demanded.

“I don’t know I woke up and this dude was in my room.”

“Where is Chris?”Cas’ blood ran cold.

“I’m sorry I don’t know Cas”

He ran down the hall, to the main bedroom. Dean and Sam a step behind him, he burst through the door. On the bed a demon in a white suit was holding Chris by her throat, she was struggling to breathe.

“Not one move further gentlemen or I’ll crush this pretty things throat.”

“Put her down Asmodeus” Cas growled, his eyes flashed gold.

“My, my what do we have here? Castiel, You been partaking of the garden son?”

“I said put her down.”

“Now why would I do that, when I came here to fetch her?” Chris went suddenly limp and the demon tossed her over his shoulder. Cas howled with rage and rushed forwards, only to find himself held fast. Asmodeus winked “I have to thank you boys, I’ve been looking for this child a very long time, thank you so much for your assistance.” Then he was gone, and so was Chris, nothing remained but the lingering scent of sulphur. What ever spell was restraining them vanished and Cas stumbled forward.

“What the hell just happened?” Sam asked.

“Cas I thought you said the house was warded?”

“It is, or it was.” he looked round the room in shock, “I don’t understand.”

“No me neither Cas.”Dean took his friend by the shoulders, “Just breath, buddy.”

“He was after Chris. Why?” Sam wondered. “And why didn’t he gank us?”

“He was in a rush.”Dean pointed out. Cas was barely listening to the conversation, his mind was a maelstrom of recriminations and dread.

“Dean, I have to find her.”

“No buddy, we will find her, Together. I know you feel like running off and doing some thing stupid, but I need you to focus right now.”

“This is my fault!”

“Cas it’s going to be alright we can fix this. I promise you, Sam and me, we will help you. Right now lets go downstairs, fix the warding and think.” Dean gripped him by the shoulder and steered him out of the room. “Sam take a look around, and check the dead guys pockets, I’ll take care of Cas.”

“Yeah, of course”

It was about 10 minutes before Sam rejoined his brother in the kitchen. Cas was sat the table, staring into nothing. Dean beckoned him over to the other end of the room. “Hows he doing? Sam asked, looking at Cas’ dejected form.

“How do you think?” Sam heard the suppressed anger in his brothers voice, Dean taking all the guilt on his shoulders-again.

“Dean, are you alright.”

“No Sammie, I am pretty far from alright. Why the hell couldn’t she have been a witch or a siren or some other non-complicated problem. Instead of-”

“Instead of what? Dean.”

“Instead of someone I liked, instead of the first girl that our best friend fell in love with.”

“Dean-”

“If I ever see Chuck again, I’m going to punch him in the face, probably more than once.”

“I get that, Dean. But we need to put this aside and do the job in front of us, just like always.”Dean gave Sam a hard stare.

“You know I can hear everything you two are saying.” Cas snorted. Sam sat down next to him.

“I checked the house, every devils trap has been struck through, I’ve fixed the ones I could.”

“The warding is the same.” Cas held up a hand, briefly occult characters glowed on the wall, then faded. “Its distorted, like its been blown apart.”

“So had to be done by a non-demon, the devils traps at least, maybe Asmodeus has a witch on the payroll.” Sam suggested.

“Maybe, I just don’t get why he took her” Dean looked at Cas sympathetically, “I’m sorry man.”

“Because he knows I care about her, that is reason enough for him” Cas sounded so bitter to Sam’s ears, clearly the angel and his brother were in a competition to see who could drown in self pity first.

“Yeah that guy is enough of a douchebag to pull that one.”

“No” Sam interrupted unable to stand the combined pity-fest any more. “This wasn’t about us, guys, this was about her.” Cas and Dean looked at him dubiously, “Look Asmodeus said he had been looking for her for years, specifically her.”

“She’s just a human hunter.” Cas said softly.

“But she’s not is she?. She has that freaky psychic thing, Maybe that’s why he was after her?”Sam watched his brother and the angel digest that information, he sometimes wondered if they were a little slow, or if they were so wrapped up in their own internal dramas that anything outside barely touched them. “So what does Asmodeus need a psychic for?”, the horrified look in Cas’ eyes froze Sam in to silence.

“I can think of about a thousand things and all of them are disturbing” Cas said slowly.

“Come on guys, we need ideas. Sitting here apportioning blame is not helping Chris. How are we going to find her?”Sam tried very hard to hide his frustration.

“He will have her some where warded, so a tracking spell is pointless” Dean pointed out.

“Maybe not, Cas you said to pull Chris out of her dream world, you had to use possession right?”

“Yes, but I don’t see how that helps.”

“So she is carrying around some of your grace?”  

“It would be miniscule, I wasn’t inside her for long”

“well you made up for that.” Dean said with a grin, Sam’s mouth dropped open.

“Dude this is hardly the time.”

“Sorry Sammie just trying to lighten the moment.”

“That tracking spell didn’t work when we tried it on Gadreel.”

“I know but I was thinking, maybe it just needed more power?”

“I think I know who we can ask” Cas said grimly, “though there is a chance she will try to kill me”
