anyways, I just think if tasha had been the witch linda hired in s8 then they would have fallen in love and the banes and the trans would've become the happiest blended family and no one would've died

for @sapphicnaturalrights day 3 & 4: motherhood / sapphics of color

banesnatural chapter 1 dropped! for @spnpocweek (day 4: pilot) and featuring lana del rey’s sadgirlsona, the problem with crying at funerals, exes who cope by doing poetry mfas, fake dennys syrup, reusable wallet sigils, and the place of twig dolls in consumehimnatural (they cannot consume!) bc i am insufferable you can also check out the companion playlist here

belphagor also tries to fuck max. does he succeed? well that’s a question for season 4 of supernatural: next gen

[deadmegumi]

Okay who's gonna be max banes' hot angel/demon boyfriend who raises him from hell in the banes spinoff. I vote we either bring back leslie odom jr's character or get chic from riverdale and just say hes a demon

[deadmegumi]

I think bastian is great it has similar ~vibes~ to balthazar but if it was something like. barry. thatd be really funny like thee BIBLICAL abel and his husband, barry

@milfdean who’s gonna be abel’s oc husband who revived him after cain killed him? it’s gotta start with b since max/balthazar is endgame here. beckham? beckett? bastian?

[samdyke]

if they were going to do anything they shouldve at least done a show about the angels and demons, at least they could come up w everlasting material and shit with the occasional cameo of someone from the show. literally cant understand how a show can be made from the john/mary story l o l

i dont get it either??? do they REALLY think thats the best option??? like. wayward sisters got canned but this gets a go what the fuck can it even be about and who is the demographic interested in this

[boygirlbowie]

which individual angels are doing drag?  an investigation

anna is just trans. like drag and trans are not mutually exclusive but anna is very much trans and not doing drag. she falls into humanity, rebukes being an angel entirely, is literally reborn into a specific human gender and body which she did not previously have and is entirely “hers.” it’s so straightforwardly a transition metaphor she literally went on e got surgery moved to an entirely different continent and lived stealth. verdict: not drag

benjamin is not doing drag but he IS doing this fascinating thing where he allows his vessel to maintain like. a conscious self. that is gendered differently than he is. and they are in active conversation and have like a Relationship. within the world of the show this is just him not doing possession and staying in his chill angel nongender, but it is readable as a metaphor for like. trans dissociation. “he’s an angel his vessel is a woman” washing your hands clean of your gendered body and the way it’s read by the world and being like that’s NOT me that’s a separate thing entirely. it’s kinda hashtag born in the wrong body which i have big political problems with as a narrative but like it’s there. verdict: not drag

raphael despite being only one of two angels to switch gendered vessels is not doing drag because he is not doing gender, he is doing power. like most of the other angels he is using vessels as like an indifferent tool he literally just happens to take two (differently gendered) vessels instead of one. obviously the narrative is not as blasé about this as he is and there are some weird anxious transmisogynistic comments about it from dean and crowley (with their silly human genders) but nevertheless: not drag because raphael does not care about gender and performing. 

also, the fact that raphael and benjamin are 2/3rds of the Black angels on the entire show and are both gendered in a way that’s non-normative/flexible/fluid is really interesting in the context of what c. riley snorton calls the “fungibility” of Black gender which is “revisable within blackness as a condition of possibility” (fungible = “able to replace or be replaced by another identical item; mutually interchangeable”). obviously like all gender, the gendering, and drag or lack thereof, on the show is inextricable from race.

if raphael is doing not gender but power, then ishim is doing gender but not drag. like most of the male-vesseled angels are incidentally a man but ishim is a man in a way that’s VERY important to the story of lily sunder which is like specifically about the abuse and control he has/had over her and the way he engages with her as a woman. ishim does gender because it’s a convenient way to get to power in v disturbing ways. however: not drag

hannah actually is kind of doing drag! like part of this is just the fact that she keeps her incongruously feminine name while in her second vessel, but also with canonically gay cas who rejects her advances right before kshdjkfkds it’s like. she’s like Oh Fuck i need to consciously Do A Gender that is not “my own” rn. the wikipedia page for hannah’s unnamed second vessel refers to her with she/her pronouns even as she possesses “the man”. the show DELIBERATELY avoids gendering her in her second vessel which is so fucking funny. but like. hannah does problematic drag she’s a het woman drag king who hits on gay men when she’s dragged up and complains about there being too many gays on the drag circuit/the oppression she faces as a straight performer. fucking obsessed with her. verdict: drag

gabriel IS doing drag here’s my take. obviously by now we’re moving further from the text and closer into fun times. anyways the trickster is gabriel’s drag persona. like so much of drag is marked by a lack of self-seriousness and a willingness to lampoon both oneself and gender and literally just fuck around and produce elaborate constructs. gabriel never takes himself seriously, has an elaborate persona to fuck with people, creates absurd fantastical worlds with deeply exaggerated Roles for sam and dean and also a literal audience. also, short king. absolutely: drag

cas is doing drag until he transitions. like he gets close enough to humanity to have a particular kind of investment in the gendered form he’s doing, and though he’s not Performing Exaggerated Maleness in the way that dean and less so sam do, he kind of gets closer to understanding what gender signifies and caring about the (gendered) body he inhabits. obviously falling for dean is a big part of him starting to care about/do gender to a degree — desire binds him closer to gender, it’s all very andrea long chu “i have never been able to differentiate liking [men] from wanting to be like them.” anyways he kind of does drag for a bit until he eventually just transitions and becomes gay and trans at the same time. and has like. a very sincere but not exaggerated or performed relationship to like Oh this is my body and i have a gender and i live here. verdict: drag, until it’s not

bonus round: miriam is doing drag because i like her

official drag count: 2.5

[tiktaalic]

max’s angel boyfriend is a rezzed hannah except she’s in her lee majdoub vessel and introduces herself as han rather than hannah and only uses he/him now. this is never addressed

[deadmegumi]

Looks to possess a vessel in the 80s to commit child murder then be lobotomized for being annoying to @retrogratorade

[castielmacleod]

Literally Banesnatural au where Max and Alicia replace Dean and Sam respectively. Max as the righteous man Alicia as the boyking. Max/Cas
