#Sabirel

[rubadubdub3nunsinatub]

I just finished reading the first two books in the Inkheart trilogy and really enjoyed it. But why did I enjoy Inkheart so much after I've been saying all year that I'm really over YA (inkheart isn't even YA its middle school reading?) novels? Let's explore.

I think the first thing is that the main characters vary in age. Its not a 'children saving the world' situation like Percy Jackson and we don't just have children as our POV. We have two teens as main characters, then mostly adults, and a few older people. It feels like we have a story that is compelling enough for adults but is told for children.

The next is that there is non of that crappy 2020s humour (maybe started 2010s?) that I keep seeing in books. I don't know how to articulate that silly, is it MCU?, type of humour where no negative feelings really feel? Serious moment that just feel cheapened by zingy one lines? That type of dialogue that feels like it's all Twitter banter? It's the kind of humour that's in every TikTok romance book you get you know? Does anyone else feel this?

I think that's why I also enjoyed Sabriel as well. They both predate this phenomenon.

Please tell me you know what I'm on about?

******************************************

"So, Sammy boy, what'll it be?"

The devious voice of the archangel teased it's way into Sam's brain, causing a bright blush to rise to the surface of his skin. Limbs spread apart towards all four corners of the bed by an invisible force, Sam knew he was in for it. (And maybe he wanted to be.)

"I, um...mhmhmhm...don't know."

Gabriel feigned surprise. "You don't know? Well, now, that just won't do!" He slowly sauntered closer to Sam's prone, vulnerable position on the bed and his expression grew into a tantalizing smirk. "Here, tell ya what, I'll be nice and help you figure it out. Now, let's see..."

Gabriel reached out and let his hand hover over Sam's unprotected armpit. He took one finger and tauntingly circled it around, just merely an inch above contact, to which Sam sucked in a breath trying to hold in his creeping laughter, the anticipation already too great to handle.

"Hmm, how about here?" The archangel landed a few ticklish pokes in the stretched hollow.

Sam gasped with a squeak. "No!"

"No? Not there? Then should I try..." Gabriel moved his eager hand to the side of Sam's ribs with a sudden quickness and squeezed in a pulsing succession. "...here? Is this what you want?"

Jolting up with a startled laugh, Sam balked at the tazering zips that shocked his ribcage. It wasn't fair that just a few accurately pinpointed squeezes already had him squirming like bait on a hook. "Stop it!"

"Okay, okay." Gabe took his hand away...only for it to come back seconds later for one more taste and Sam squealed.

"Aww, how adorable."

"Gabe!"

"Yes?"

"I-"

"You want me to tickle you so bad? All you had to do was ask!"

Not wasting another second, Gabriel's fingers started making quick work to skitter all over Sam's stomach. Sam's body began to dance with uncontrollable giggles brightly shimmering out of his chest, sounding like music to Gabriel's ears and fueling his fire. The tips of his practiced fingers knew just the right amount of speed and pressure to effectively dismantle his prey.

"This is one of your favorite spots isn't it?"

"Shut uhuhup!" Sam felt a wave of heat rush to his cheeks. Gabe wasn't wrong, it was just rude of him to say that out loud.

"You know what I think would make this even more fun though?" With a flick of the wrist, Gabriel tossed the hem of Sam's shirt up, exposing a strip of skin. Taking a big, dramatic breath, the archangel leaned down and connected his lips to Sam's quivering tummy and blew.

Sam busted out into loud laughter, arching his back.

Gabriel smirked against Sam's skin. "Aha, that's the ticket, huh?" He blew again. And again. And again.

The tingling vibrated into Sam's veins and sent a thrill rushing through his system. It seemed like with each raspberry blown onto his sensitive skin, the ticklish feeling grew and grew, radiating from his glowing core.

"Ahahahaa!! Stop it!"

"No can do, Bucko." Gabriel continued blowing raspberries all over Sam's middle while also deciding to bring his fingers back into play, scribbling them up and down Sam's sides. He relished in the growing changes of pitch of Sam's laughter with each new raspberry placed.

A few moments had passed when, without warning, Gabe came to a sudden stop. "You know what? I think we're missing something." And just like magic, four hovering feathers appeared, two by each of Sam's feet. Under the Trickster's control, the feathers were put into position and made contact, two feathers stroking the sole of each foot while the other two feathers began sawing through both sets of toes.

The soft, yet torturous tickles sent a new wave of sensation through Sam's affected body. "NoooOOOHOHOHO!"

Gabriel let out a smug, contented sigh. "Ahhh, that's much better! Now, where was I?...Oh, yeah!" Pfffft.

Sam screamed. The combination of Gabriel's playful raspberries and nimble fingers attacking his torso with the new addition of the teasing feathers having their way with his feet was absolutely lethal. His nerves were alight with ticklish demise and he couldn't do anything but writhe around on the bed and laugh his heart out. But that's what was so thrilling of it all. Sam was used to being the hunter, not the hunted. And now here he was under the playful, silly control of his "predator" and it was always an exciting feeling.

Suddenly, a new voice coming from the doorway broke him from his thoughts.

"Need an extra set of hands?"

Sam gasped. "Dean, NO!"

Gabriel laughed as his tickling came to a pause. "Well, hey there, Deano! I think Sam would definitely love some help with his armpits."

"No problem." Dean made his way over to the head of the bed.

"Nonono NO! Stop this isn't fair!"

Gabe scoffed. "Since when do I ever care about being fair?"

Pffffft.

Renewed screams and laughter filled the room once again.

He couldn't help but give an amused chuckle, enjoying the moments like this they got to just sit and talk like siblings. It was nothing against his brother-in-law. He was just wary.

"I know. I have yours as well, and Garth's the poor kid."

He sighed softly, looking over at her.

"How is he? I know it's been a while since I checked on him. I need to make more time to do that."

Trust and Truth

(Ignore the fact that I wrote this before Jack was.....well Jack. Pretend Jack healed Kelly somehow and they’re happy in Florida) 

Those two words look so alike, and they went hand in hand, Dean reasoned. You had to trust that someone was telling the truth. And truth most of the times helped build trust. A small shaking breath went through Dean. Cas was back from the dead, back from the Empty, which according to Billie, was impossible to escape from. So, how the hell did his angel do it? And somehow Cas had managed to bring Gabriel for the ride back. And that all led to today, Dean Winchester, sitting alone in his room, trying to decide if he trusted his Castiel, his best friend. God did he want to. He hadn't said anything to Sam. He didn't want to be right. But Cas... He had just waltzed back into the bunker like Lucifer hadn't run him through. Like nothing was wrong. Sam... Sam was happy, happy to have Cas back, with Gabriel as an extra bonus. As much as Sam would deny it, Dean knew his younger brother admired Gabriel after he had died for them. Hell, even he himself had kind thoughts for the fake pagan god after that. Dean sighed, leaning back on his bed. "Maybe I should talk to Cas." He mumbled out loud staring up at his ceiling. It'd probably wouldn't go how he planned. Dean grit his teeth and clenched his fists. He wanted to hit something. The only things near were a laptop and his desk. Dean stood, and with a yell of anger, threw the laptop against the wall. It shattered, but Dean didn't care. He over turned his desk. Paper and research flew everywhere onto the floor. He looked up briefly, "If think this is funny, you son of a bitch.... It's not. Stop screwing with us you bastard!" He yelled, past the point of caring if the others in the bunker heard him. Sam chose then to walk in, alone thankfully. "Dean?" He laid a careful hand on the other hunter. "You seem a little...." Sam trailed off looking around the room. "I'm fine Sammy, just a little angry. That's all." Dean faked a smile. "Yeah, I can see that." Sam let go of his brother and picked up some of the papers. Then he left, sensing that he wasn’t wanted. When Dean looked up, Castiel had replaced Sam in the doorway. 

Pt 1 1/2 (what Sam and Gabe are doing while Dean and Cas... you know....)

 Sam rolled his eyes at the short angel. "You are impossible." He said smirking slightly. "Sammoose. Please." Gabriel begged, on his knees. "We should spy on them." "Gabe, no." Sam sighed. "Let's go to the library together." "Awe, is this our first date? At stay at home read fest? How nerdy, Sam-a-lam." Gabe teased as they walked together.

"It's not a date. If it was, it would be dinner. And I'd make you buy." Sam sassed back. Gabe looked speechless for a moment before grinning. "Sammy! I didn't know this is how you felt!" He bumped the giant man's arm with his shoulder. As they entered the library Gabe snapped a lollipop into existence. He sucked on it while he watched Sam research. After a while Sam looked up. "Hey, get this, so while many pagan gods eat humans, some, like you, eat what is considered connected with that god. So for you, it's candy." Sam smiled, "I found you out." "I'm mean you could always find out more." Gabe winked. "But how about dinner first? Let's say.... Two days from now? At 7?" Gabriel let himself be hopeful. Sam blinked at him before registering what the archangel had said. "Uh, yeah. That sounds good." He nodded with a smile.

Castiel looked at Dean Winchester, his human, the one he loved, his best friend. Castiel didn't know that Dean had been on to him. On to his lies. Why hadn't he told the truth in the beginning? "Dean... I..." The fallen angel began. "Don't." Dean said, holding up a hand to stop him. "Cas... I don't want another excuse. And I want to know the truth and why the hell you hid that from us.... From me." Dean's heart broken expression made Castiel want to undo every thing he had done, even back when he had been searching for Kelly. "Cas. I don't know why. But you think you can't trust me." Dean looked down. "I hate that." "You...." Castiel could feel his anger rising. "You want to know why I don't trust you Dean? It's because you don't treat me like I'm important. That after all we've been through. I mean nothing to you." Castiel pointed a finger and poked Dean's chest. "You've treated me like I'm just here to help you. Well, I found Crowley in the Empty. And after we escaped.... We talked, Crowley, Gabriel and I. About you Winchesters. And I realized that you've never cared about any of us. Not Crowley or I, or anyone else that has died for your cause." Cas felt angry and sad tears run down his face. He watched Dean's face tighten with anger. "Castiel, maybe if you were actually helpful, I'd treat you better. As it is the only thing you seemed to be good at, is getting yourself killed." Cas took a small step back. And he could tell by Dean's eyes that the green eyed hunter knew he had gone too far. " Cas... I-" Castiel was already gone. 'Gabirel, I know you care for Sam, and he for you. I just couldn't stay there with Dean. So I left.' Castiel sent a prayer to his older brother. Flying far from the bunker to a forest. He sat on a stump and held his head in his hands. He wasn't sure if he would be able to face Dean ever again. Dean ran through the bunker. Eventually running into Gabe and Sam. Gabriel automatically shoved him against the wall. "What the hell did you say to my brother." Gabriel growled, his eyes flashing gold. Sam surprisingly didn't move to stop Gabe. "Dean what did you do." Sam looked worried. "Cas sent Gabe a prayer saying he wasn't coming back because of you." Dean avoided their eyes. "I said some pretty harsh things. Which I regret." He said. "HARSH THINGS." Gabirel's voice reached a ear shattering level. Sam winced. "Gabe, my ears." Gabe glared at Dean once more before letting him go. "You broke my brother's heart. He loves you Dean." Gabe said as Sam placed an arm around Gabe. "Why don't I get you some hot cocoa. Fighting each other won't bring back Cas." Sam gently led Gabe away. Though Dean say the disappointed look in Sam's eyes. And Dean knew, things were never going to be the same.

It had been a year ago that Cas had left. Dean was on a hunt, hunting had become something he threw himself into. But now that he was tied to a chair and about to die. He was thinking, he should have done better to find Cas and tell him he loved the angel. They say separation makes the heart grow fonder. And Dean reckoned that was true, because he had never loved Castiel more than when he was gone. "Dean Winchester. Never thought I'd have the opportunity to kill such a pretty man." The vampire in front of him spoke, bringing his thoughts back to the present. "Don't swing that way, you son of a bitch." Dean glared at the male bastard in front of him. Which was somewhat true, he would never even consider anyone with this personality, guy or girl. "I could make you." The vamp leered, reaching forward and ripping Dean's shirt. 'Well, looks like Cas won't be my gay first time then. I'm just going to get fucking raped by a vampire. Not at all what I pictured.' Dean thought, not realizing that he actually was praying, to Castiel.

Cas heard him, and rushed to where he pinpointed the prayer. Smiting the vampire was easy. Facing Dean? Not as much. (That's all for now.)

Recommendations #1: Adult fantasy recommendations for beginners Pt 1.

I just recently watched a video by Elliot Brooks. She made a video about how to get into adult fantasy. I’ll link it here And she did give some recommendations but i wanted to give some more. Also i think everyone should go check out her channel. She’s amazing. But lets get into the recommendations.

1) Kings of the Wyld by Nicolas Eames

Kings of the Wyld follows these old men who used to be part of the biggest merc group in this world but they have since long retired. So one day our main character Clay is approached by his old leader and is asked to help save his daughter. So clay & and the other mercs get together and try to save the girl. I can’t tell you how much i loved this book. Nicholas Eames writing style is very easy to follow. The characters are funny and there is a bit of world building that i think is perfect for beginners.

2) Sabirel by Garth Nix

Sent to a boarding school in Ancelstierre as a young child, Sabriel has had little experience with the random power of Free Magic or the Dead who refuse to stay dead in the Old Kingdom. But during her final semester, her father, the Abhorsen, goes missing, and Sabriel knows she must enter the Old Kingdom to find him. Now Sabirel is technically a YA Fantasy book but i wanted to put this on the list beacuse i think it’s a great transitional book. It’s very close to adult fantasy. Our main character sabriel is very likeable, smart, brave. I love her. Now there is more world building to this one but it’s still not the most i’ve read in a fantasy book. Lastly i feel the magic system is very easy to follow.

3) Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson

This is the story of two sisters, who happen to be princesses. Theirs is a world in which those who die in glory return as gods to live confined to a pantheon in Hallandren's capital city. A world transformed by a power based on an essence known as breath. Using magic is arduous as breath can only be collected one unit at a time Warbreaker is probably one of my favorite Brandon Sanderson novels, also one of his easiest to get into. This book is filled with humor and one of the coolest magic systems i’ve ever read. It’s a great way to get into adult fantasy & a great way to get into Brandon Sandersons novels

Okay ya’ll thats it for now. Let me if you want more like this and i will do my best to provide. Send me a message if you have any recommendations and maybe they will get mentioned in the next post. :)

Slow blink

So this didn’t really turn out how I saw it in my head, but I still like it. There was something about the scene of Sam cutting Gabriels stitches that was so calming, so...I don’t know how to describe it. But I felt good. Really good. And then it hit me what was causing it. It was the way Gabriel was blinking. That slow blink that cats do when they like you and feel safe. I had the idea to get it down in words, but I don’t think I got it right. Either way...

Sabirel, yo

~850 words

SPOILERS FOR 13X17!!!!!

~~~

It was when Sam was raising the scalpel, preparing to cut the bloody twine from his lips, that he noticed.

This wasn't the frantic and panicked man that Ketch pulled into the war room. He had changed. Gabriel was now calm, peaceful, serene. Sam could almost see past the blood to the golden holy being that Gabriel used to be. 

When did he change?

Was it after Dean gathered his stuff and led Ketch away to pick a room? Was it after Sam's gun clattered to the map table, the sharp noise causing the traumatized archangel to retreat back into the dark library? 

Or maybe it was when Sam chased him into the dark, only to find him curled up in the same corner Ketch had tugged him out of. A little too roughly, if anyone bothered to ask Sam. 

“Gabriel?” Sam asked cautiously, hands raised defensively and careful not to touch the archangel. “It’s Sam. Uh, Winchester? Do you remember me?”

Sam frowned deeply at the image of Gabriel; cowered as low in the corner as he could get, his arms pulling his knees in tightly to his chest and his face buried in his arms. The only response Gabriel gave was a pathetic whimper, and Sam gaped in horror at the thought of what could destroy one of the most powerful and holy beings in the universe. 

“Gabriel,” Sam tried again, and slowly, so slowly moved forward to place his large hand on Gabriels arm.

The archangel jerked up at the gentle touch, his eyes wide and frightened. His whimpers shifted quickly into muffled screaming as Gabriel tried to shove himself back further into the corner. 

“Hey, hey, hey, calm down.” Sam tried to mimic how Ketch relaxed Gabriel before, a grounding hand on his shoulder and a strong yet soothing voice. “I’m not gonna hurt you. You're safe here. Hey. It’s me, Sam.”

At his name, Gabriel stopped suddenly. His eyes seemed to focus, regaining a little of that heavenly focus, and trained themselves on Sam. A noise escaped him, one Sam took as understanding. 

“Do you remember me?” Gabriels gaze never wavered, never lost that manic stare, but he didn't answer. Sam tried to push past the way his skin crawled with those wild amber eyes staring at him and kept talking.

“That’s ok if you don’t, but I need you to know that I won't hurt you.” There was a barely there nod, just a miniscule movement, but Sam took it as a win. And even though those eyes were still boring into him, Sam heard one long sound, like Gabriel was trying to speak, muffled by the stitches binding his lips together. 

Sams eyes flickered down to the twine, and frowned. 

“We should take those out, yeah?” He held out a hand to Gabriel, and to his genuine surprise, the archangel took it. He allowed himself to be helped off the floor, and shuffled the few feet over to one of the cushioned chairs in the library. He was always looking at Sam, studying him. 

As Gabriel sank heavily into the chair, Sam knelt in front of him, a hand still on his arm.

“I’m gonna go get the first aid kit, ok? I’ll be right back.”

He didn't wait for a response, just turned and walked off quickly in search of supplies. He didn't have to go far, just back into the war room. As much as the Winchesters get hurt, there was a kit in almost every room of the bunker. 

Sam pulled a chair over to Gabriel, too involved in preparing the scalpel with rubbing alcohol to even look up at him. He turned his chair to face Gabriel, hands raised to begin working, when Sam noticed.

These eyes. 

The beautiful eyes of the archangel Gabriel. 

They were no longer wide and frantic. No longer staring, flicking back and forth so quickly looking for an attack he was sure would come. 

Sam smiled a little before he began to cut, but as he focused on his work, he noticed that his own emotions were changing, softening into calm and contented. He looked up from his work, and watched Gabriel calmly look around the room, not looking at anything in particular. 

And then he blinked.

Slow and heavy lids went down and up, and Sam laughed quietly to himself.

Just like a cat, he thought. 

Sam knew that this was a good sign. Gabriel felt safe. Safe enough for Sam to help him. Safe enough to let Sam use a  sharp object so close to him. Safe enough for his feelings of security to bleed from his vessel,  strong enough to affect Sams own emotions. 

And as he continued to cut through the bloody and crusted cording in Gabriels skin, Sam had a feeling that he could do this. That he could help this broken archangel put the pieces of his grace back together.
