One of my favorite parts of Valhalla is the retelling of King Lear as king Lerion and his witchy pagan daughters~

Such a cool vibe. Honestly Celtic Britain, the Viking age and Roman Britain have such a good vibe for folk horror. Probably why I love Senua’s Sacrifice so much too

[tinfoil-jones]

Since someone asked about Shermie, what are your headcanons about him? How do you imagine his relationship with his parents and the twins? How do you think was his reaction about Stan being kicked out? And about Stan's "death"? And about what happened in the next 30 years after that when Dipper, Mabel, Stan and Ford explain everything to him the whole truth?

I figured he was older than the Stan Twins, there's enough of an age gap that he wasn't really involved with their upbringing or particularly close to them, seeing how in canon he couldn't tell that 'Stanford' was really just Stanley impersonating him.

I follow the popular fan canon that the baby that Caryn was seen caring for in "The Tale of Two Stans" was Shermie's son, Dipper and Mabels dad.

In this story, Shermie's has only been mentioned a few times, once when Fiddleford says that Stanford mentioned his older brother Sherman, but never his twin brother Stanley. Another, Caryn tells Ford in the dreamscape that Shermie had intended to go to Stan's funeral, but couldn't go because his son was sick (and also he lived in Piedmont, CA)

I feel like Shermie wasn't pleased when he heard about Stan being kicked out, but he was a young father himself and would move out of Jersey soon, there wasn't anything he felt like he could do for Stan. Stan had only tried asking for help from family once, and it was Caryn he'd tried to ask.

When it came to Stan's death, again he couldn't go to the funeral because of external circumstances, but it didn't help his opinion of his father when he heard that he chose not to go to Stan's funeral. Caryn would have explained that Filbrick "wouldn’t be able to handle it", but if anything that would just make Shermie think he was a coward.

He would realize Stanley was still alive soon after Stan self-reported himself as alive to authorities. It was most likely Caryn who told him. Per Filbrick, Stan still wasn't let back into the family, but that didn't seem to be a problem because Stan would refuse to attend family events even if the option was available, and he kept this stance until Filbricks death. Shermie would reach out, and try to make amends. I imagine he maintained a somewhat distant, but consistent relationship with his younger brothers after this, they would send letters back and forth (because Stan would actually read them unlike Ford who would say he'd do it later, but forget) and call each other every so often.

Shermie didn't know about Stan almost killing Filbrick, because there's absolutely no way Filbrick would ever let anyone know that he was almost choked to death by the son that he casted away, and only survived because other people had to plead for his life.

Dipper and Mabel would still visit them thirty years in the future, because Shermie would have maintained that relationship with both of his brothers and Stan doesn't have a criminal record anymore (thanks Time Wish). I imagine the main plot for that summer would be Stan trying to keep those two from following Ford and Bill out into the multiverse (since Ford eventually got his portal gun to work across dimensions).

If you could have brought Soulless Sam back even just for an episode at any point later in the series when would it have been and why? Are there any particular characters you would like to see him interact with? (Creative ways to do it without an autonomy violation to either Sam in loosing the soul or soulless in regaining it also welcomed).

oh my god i started thinking about this before i even read what you had in the parentheses but this goes hand in hand with ardent's headcanon that jack snoops around in sam and dean's dreamscapes sometimes. it'd be really cool to come across some kind of metaphysical or mental aspect of sam in which hell!sam or soulless!sam are pieces of his being he could never quite put all the way back together but! in a way that incorporates this within jack's soulless arc. i also wouldn't really mind another autonomy violation they're enrichment for me but it would have been interesting to see them attempt a consensual temporary soul transplant !! jack takes on sam's soul at sam's insistence but it results in not-really-resouled jack having sam's and watered down hell!sam's (since cas took on much of sam's metaphysical hell trauma) beings in his head while soulless!sam exists again but in a different way because now he has a particular companionship with a not-really-resouled jack. or maybe even perhaps jack has the ability to siphon hell!sam and sam to stay within sam's body along with soulless!sam while a not-really-resouled jack temporarily uses sam's soul. i think it would be/would've been like a singular episode long and it would have been fun for me and awful for every one else involved.

it was always beyond me that as the only other Household character who went through a period of not having a soul, sam was never able to extend his experiences to jack in neither an explicit character exploration or even a narrative mirroring way but it's honestly not surprising—they did the same thing with michael and dean vs sam within the same season. and i've talked about this before in nick's tags so those who are familiar know i'm not saying sam was explicitly entitled to have that extended character exploration happen synonymously with jack's but the differences in the technique some characters are allowed to relate to others (donatello and jack) versus sam is endlessly interesting to me. it's very abstract and much of it has to be filtered through dean on dean's say so. dean was not inclined towards soulless!sam or sam's experience as soulless!sam largely due to his significantly more monstrous classification in comparison to the other two soulless characters mentioned so whatever it's typical that the narrative would do the same. it would be cool to explore something between soulless!sam and soulless!jack regardless.

[thekatebridgerton]

So speaking of more stories I'm too sleep deprived to write. Since I'm kinda obsessed with the scene where Anthony is having a hot dream about Kate. What if the Bridgertons true love were dream walkers.

You know those people who can enter other people's dreams. And see what they're dreaming about. But this weird phenomenon only happens to Bridgerton soulmates. Not to the Bridgertons themselves, so they never fully know they've found their soulmate until their significant other comes clean.

Take Kate for example, she's always been able to enter people's dreams. Mostly because she spends most of her sleep time in Edwina's dreams, which are usually happy and colorful. Sometimes Mary's dreams, sometimes her papa, which was nice because he used to dream of her mom sometimes. Or the dreams of the servants. Then arriving to London and meeting Edwina's gaggle of suitors, something weird happens after meeting Anthony Bridgerton and having the most antagonistic conversations ever... Kate's dream walking stops taking her to other people's dreams, and only drops her in Anthony's!

At first it was normal, okay fine, finding out that a gentleman who seemed to despise her is constantly dreaming about her is not normal, but at first the dreams on itself were normal dreams of castles and meadows and beaches, where Anthony saw himself relaxing with his family and bantering with Kate... Kate could actually look at Anthony in the eye during those days... And then Anthony's dreams started to get more passionate and definitely a lot less clothed! How is Kate supposed to take Anthony seriously whenever he talks about courting Edwina when she knows for a fact that he's dreaming about slowly undressing her every night!! Worse how is Kate supposed to go to sleep now!!! She can't even hold a conversation with him, she's seen him naked in his dreams! Why does Viscount Bridgerton have such a dirty mind! And why is she the star of all his sexual fantasies when he claims to hate her and is insistent on marrying for duty! This is bad, this so bad. Someone help. Time to stop sleeping then. Anthony does not know why Kate can sometimes be so confrontational and at the same time avoid his eyes in embarrassment so much. But he does notice that Kate seems to be very sleep deprived during her time at Aubrey Hall especially Because he keeps finding her taking naps in strange places near his office, almost as if she's only comfortable sleeping when she knows for a fact that he's wide awake. Which is strange for someone as active as Kate, suspiciously so.

Then we have Penelope, who used to be able to see other people's dreams but now can only walk in Colin's dreams since she met him. Colin NEVER has dreamed about her. At most he dreams of his family and she vaguely figures as an extra. But Penelope doesn't mind, because Colin's dreams take her traveling to everywhere he's been, she gets to see his dreamscapes of Cyprus and Florence and Paris. Sometimes yes he has dirty dreams but Penelope has learned to wake herself up when he's having those. And everything was going great. Until Penelope decided to try an experiment to see if she could make Colin dream about her by asking him to kiss her once ... Well the experiment worked, it worked a little too well, Colin's dreams went running past their first kiss, skipped the foreplay and went straight to dreaming about burying himself in Penelope's body. If Penelope didn't know Colin hadn't ever seen her naked she would have been convinced she was watching a very recent memory. And not only do the dirty dreams not stop, they start getting more creative the more Colin seeks her out in real life. Because he thinks Penelope is avoiding him after their kiss. So of course Penelope tries to act normal around him, except there is no normal, she's being treated to a private show of Colin's bedroom skills every night and it's driving her insane that he can hide so many fantasies about her behind that innocent smile of his... Colin can't stand that Penelope seems to be hiding a secret from him, he tries to be more friendly but that just makes her close off herself more. At least Until Colin discovers that she's lady Whistledown and she angrily let's it slip that she knows exactly what kind of dreams he's been having... oh oh

And then there's Sophie, kind, good Sophie, who went to a masquerade once and now only sees the dreams of a man who doesn't remember her face. A man who rescues a maid from trouble two years later, only for his dreams of the lady in silver to begin including Sophie too. Benedict might act like a cad sometimes, but how Sophie wishes she could correct his dreams and let him know that she is in fact the same person. Because for someone who claims he wants her to be his mistress, Benedict Bridgerton does seem to dream a lot about seeing Sophie as his bride.

I just find it so funny if all this time Kate, Sophie and Penelope could see exactly what their men dream about when they're alone. And not be able to say anything because dream walking isn't something normal people can do. And the Bridgertons don't exactly advertise this soulmate quirk of theirs.

I would love for Eloise to just one day casually mention to Penelope and Kate that her family soulmates are supposed to be able to see their dreams, just as they're both about to go crazy from unresolved sexual tension with Anthony and Colin. Just because I enjoy the chaos this would cause

And that's the tea. With a side of sleep deprivation. For you insomniacs out there

The inherent shame in loving angels: Dean & Castiel

I think 14x09 The Spear & 14x10 Nihilism have some marvelous built-in lines pointing to the guilt concerning angelic possession.

Pamela Barnes's presence and subsequent blinding in Dean’s dreamscape is so, so fascinating. It implies that, despite what Dean says in The Spear, Dean is strugglingwith what the reality of Cas is and a new perspective on the brutal knowledge of what his presence means.

Take these lines from The Spear:

CAS: You seem good lately. Happy, even. [ Dean is getting gear from back seat ] You -- We have a broken tape deck, we drove this whole way without music, and you did not complain once. DEAN: [ Closes car door ] You know, I guess I'm just fired up. I mean, look. We got -- We got Jack back. When was the last time we had a big, no-strings-attached win like that? CAS: But now we have Michael. DEAN: I know. CAS: And, Dean we're taking a big risk going after the spear like this. DEAN: I know we are.[ Stopping Cas ] Listen to me. Michael conned me. Kept me trapped and drowning inside my own body. Now, when you and Sam were possessed by Lucifer, I -- I thought I understood, but I didn't, not really. So, yeah, if we get a chance to trap him, I'll take that, but I won't be truly happy until he is dead and I kill him. And now I have a chance to do that, so, yeah, I'm good. Let's go.

On the outside, Dean is happy. There's just one thing left to defeat, and then, maybe finally he can be happy. (We know from 12x23 that his happiness, the 'everything he's ever wanted' includes his makeshift little family: Cas, Mary, Jack.)

But Michael's possession left him psychologically injured. Angelic power and possession is on his mind. He's still struggling with the horror of what that felt like.

He does not mention the elephant in the room--that Cas not only know what's like to be possessed, but to possess.

///

Then, we see Pamela Barnes in 14x10 Nihilism, and yes, she's conspicuously dressed in Hell and wing motifs. Michael reminds us that it was Cas who pulled Dean from perdition, and then we get this:

(Flashback to Pamela's eyes being burned out) DEAN (looks at Pamela, whose eyes are now pure white): You're blind? PAMELA: Yeah, I've been blind for a while. Thank Feathers here for that one. CASTIEL: That was -- Dean, that was an accident. ♪ And I'm searchin' for a rainbow ♪

This is Dean's subconscious. It's taunting him that he's been blind...for awhile.

It's an ominous undercurrent reminding him that yes, he's loved Cas for awhile, and yes, that's blinded him to what Cas truly is. His subconscious is struggling and balking at the new perspective he has on Cas's human victims. Pamela was an accident, but Jimmy wasn't. Countless others weren't either.

He can't help but think about it, and he's desperately suppressing it. He loves Cas. But Cas blinded Pamela, like he blinded Dean. And Dean loves him anyway, and that's horrific, isn't it? He can't have that. They can't possibly deserve that happiness together. They're both here at the expense of others. It's frightening and ugly and drowning him with guilt.

Beyond Pamela lies the specter of Jimmy Novak. The ugly truth is that the third member of Team Free Will stripped a man of his free will so utterly.

And yet, Dean's subconscious is chanting, “I love you. I can’t help it.”

It's true what they say: love is blind.

when the rain washes you clean you’ll know https://ift.tt/stRqreg by an_ardent_rain Cas came back. But as happy as Dean is about it, things have been... strained. Dean can't find the words, Cas is avoiding him, and Sam's at the end of his rope with the both of them. When they stumble upon a case in West Virginia where people are falling asleep and disappearing, it seems like the perfect opportunity to force some cooperation. It's a milk run. Easy. But with so much repressed, and so many dreams unrealized, Dean and Castiel soon find themselves caught up in something that may finally force them to confront what they've been trying to ignore ever since Cas came back.

[autisticandroids]

Director's commentary on "hunger" PLEASE. I cannot stop thinking about the yonic abyss.

[the goal here is to provide a director's commentary, a la the one i did for i fold in half so easily, though obviously less comprehensive. this commentary is for hunger.]

i don't have a TON to say about hunger. but. well. ok. first of all. yonic abyss castiel comes from this post by @allegedlyopposed. that's crucial before we start. okay. second thing you have to know is that i was DESPERATELY finishing this ON november fifth. in order to get something posted and i managed it at like 11pm. the third thing is that the original concept for this fic was um. much weirder. as you'll see.

also like, i had a ton of fun writing this fic because like... a lot of endverse cas fic is like. it's About The End. that's what it's about. it's really uninterested in how the endverse related to the rest of the canon except in terms of differences. but the thing about the endverse is like. the point of divergence from the timeline is free to be you and me. that's pretty fucking late! a lot of things that we see happen in canon have also happened to endverse dean and cas. endverse cas sat with dean on a bench and discussed doubts. endverse cas saw dean fall apart in on the head of a pin. endverse cas said "we're making it up as we go." so like, it was a lot of fun to write a fic that is essentially mostly about lazarus rising, framed through the endverse. like it's very explicit that this is like... also how our cas feels. he would just never say it, and may not even have the words to articulate it yet.

“Want some?” Cas says, offering the joint, and Dean looks over at his jailer.

“No, thanks. I, um, don’t partake.” Dean feels his cheeks heat.

Cas laughs, then. It’s a big belly laugh, complete with a coughing fit halfway through. He chucks Dean on the shoulder.

“It gives you panic attacks, I know. I just wanted to see if you’d agree out of embarrassment. You were such a priss about admitting it back in the day.”

i love you weedsocks boy. the thing about dean winchester is that he is a little chihuahua of a man and could never smoke weed he is TOO anxious. however, as an homage to the dean winchester beat sheet. i do believe that he pretends to other people that he smokes weed.

Dean doesn’t know what to say to that. He doesn’t say anything. He sits and he watches Cas smoke, instead.

“-can’t even fucking look at him” is what Dean’d heard this afternoon through the cabin wall. “So you want me to?” came the drawled reply. That’s when Cas had come into Dean’s cabin - Dean’s in the sense that it belonged to his future self, but also Dean’s in the sense that it was where he’d been kept for the past however many hours - and taken him by the arm.

it's crucial to me that endverse cas be mean. that's like. it's the last power that he has, over dean. they both know that cas will follow dean to the ends of the earth willingly, and they also know that dean can't do anything to cas, so it's like. stalemate. dean keeps cas around, and cas makes nasty remarks, and dean gives orders, and cas does what dean says in the end (no pun intended, hah). you know? and it's also about how endverse cas is you know maybe in some ways better off in his relationship with his dean than like, season fifteen cas. more secure, less afraid, possessed of more power and agency. even if when all is said and done it all ends up the same.

Now he’s in Cas’ beaded hippie dreamscape, minus the girls, and he’s not cuffed but he’s pretty sure that if he tried to leave he’d be down before he took four steps. 

look i'm not a dta girlie but that bit in dta where cas just obliterates dean in like the first or second chapter was compelling.

There aren’t really chairs in Cas’ cabin, just a couple big wooden chests all covered in candles, but there’s these fat, plush silky pillows, and the carpet’s real soft. It’s nice as long as Dean sits criss-cross applesauce and doesn’t think of what might be caked into it. It can’t be worse than some of the motel beds he’s slept in, right?

Cas is leaning back on a pile of cushions, one leg bent, the other loose and stretched across the floor. He blows a smoke ring, and Dean can see his throat working. Watches his Adam’s apple bob.

“You used to be a priss about everything. You know, when you had to shoot Jo Harvelle, I held your hair back as you bent over the toilet. It was long for a while. We were hiding out in one of Rufus’ old cabins. Couldn’t get electricity for the clippers.” Cas sighs. It’s a wistful sound. “It's a shame we've got solar panels now. You were so pretty. It fell around your face like…” he trails off, staring at the ceiling. A shiver goes through Dean. “At least we can flip the lights on at Chitaqua.”

cas voice who cares that jo is dead i got to touch your face. gayboy moment of the highest degree.

Dean glances around at Cas’ cabin. There’s no bulb in the single ceiling fixture. Just candles.

also it's crucial that i am positing a prelapsarian time where this dean and this cas WERE happy. they may or may not have been sleeping together (probably yes but it doesn't really matter) (it will become clear as the fic goes on that they have slept together at SOME point, but possibly not until things were falling apart, hard to tell) but they WERE happy. or, more likely, cas was happy. dean was miserable - he had to put down his friends like rabid animals - but cas and dean were holed up together all alone or nearly so, and dean was soft and vulnerable, enough so to both let his hair grow out and to let cas hold it back. like this was clearly an idyllic time for cas, specifically, because the world may have been ending but he had dean, in a meaningful, serious way.

Cas’ head flops to the side, and it would have felt unintentional except his eyes are so clear and bright and now they’re staring right into Dean’s.

“C’mere.” Cas cricks a lazy finger at him, and he might have said that in his chill stoner voice but God, it's a command. It's an order, and Dean can't disobey. Cas used to lead armies, and Dean can feel it in the smoky air they're sharing.

Dean scoots closer, but Cas pats the cushions beside him.

“Lay down. Stay awhile.” He laughs again, like it’s some sort of joke, but the sound is creaky. Breathy. More like a sigh than a laugh, less like a sigh than a gust of wind through an old house.

Dean lays on his side. Facing Cas. Cas rolls to meet him, and they’re nearly nose to nose. 

Cas reaches over. Runs a hand up Dean’s left side. Gentle. It would be ticklish if he weren’t wearing a shirt.

“You used to be a priss about this, too,” Cas breathes, and kisses him.

It’s soft. Cas’ lips are chapped, but they’re still pillowy. And Cas is warm, his hand solid on Dean’s ribs.

Dean’s eyes fly open. He chokes.

“What?”

This close, he’s treated to quite a show when Cas’ eyes roll.

“Still a priss, then.”

king of negging. there are a lot of things going on in this fic but one of them is that cas wants to fuck dean and is heaping him with the perfect combo of compliments, insults, and commands to make dean want his approval in order to fuck him. and it works. manipulative ❤️

Dean can feel the words against his lips.

Cas flops back onto his back, still watching Dean from the corner of his eye. Dean stays where he is. 

Cas brings a hand up. Cups Dean’s chin. Draws the pad of his thumb across Dean’s bottom lip.

“I can promise you, you’ll get over yourself eventually.” 

Dean licks his lips involuntarily, goosebumps running up his spine, but all he can think of is the man his double shot this morning. It’s called commonplace.

i love it when being gay is a sign of losing yourself. like the thing about endverse dean is that he's a complete ego death for our dean. he does what dean would never do. whether that's coldly kill people he cares about or have gay sex.

“I-” he can’t really speak. He can’t talk to this funhouse mirror image of his friend, this antifuture doppelganger, this Cassandra prophecy. He can’t say who are you. He can’t say who am I.

All he can do is try to prove Cas wrong. Or just try to prove himself.

He takes Cas’ face in his hands. Presses their mouths together with force. Slips his tongue into Cas’ mouth, desperate for a taste of- 

this was about the point where i was like okay if i'm being realistic about dean then i am never getting them into bed together. it's too hard. he's too much of a little bitch about it. i'm gonna need to turn up the "doe-eyed and slack-jawed" slider to max on this one. and on reflection i also just needed him to get manipulated because that was what cas wanted to do. it's enrichment

He feels a little huff of laughter burst from Cas’ chest. Dean rolls, and finds himself straddling him.

“Ooh, forward, ” Cas says when they break apart. Under him Dean can feel Cas’ bony hips digging into his thighs. 

Cas leans back, closes his eyes. Runs two fingers up Dean’s arm, and goosebumps follow. The movement is so easy but Dean can see the tension across Cas’ shoulders. His baggy shirt rides up, and Dean can see just a sliver of soft skin.

i used endverse cas running his fingers up dean's arm in another fic. let it never be said i'm not consistent. anyway i do think cas is a toucher in general and endverse cas, because he fucks constantly, would turn that into a flirting style, you know? and like the thing about cas is he hosts orgies to become a part of something larger than himself and like. touch is part of that. i think endverse cas touches people to hit on them and etc. but he also craves touch and has not been trained out of it as aggressively as canonverse cas was because in canonverse dean really held all the card in that relationship while also like. not being as close to cas. whereas in the nebulous beforetime that i posited previously 1) dean and cas were lovers and 2) they were each other's most important person, depending on each other. it actually seems like cas was more taking care of dean for a while, because dean fell apart when the world ended and cas didn't because like, he had already torpedoed his own life by falling, what did he care.

“Do you know what it was like, having you inside me?” Cas says. Dean’s breath catches, and he can feel his dick perk up.

i hate to write unsubtle sexual arousal like that but needs must.

Cas’ eyes slit open, and he smirks a little. “Get your mind out of the gutter. I meant when I flew you out of Hell.”

this was approximately the point at which i decided that this fic should be normal and not the original weird thing i planned. the thing about castiel mouthgenitalia fic is that i still do desperately want to write it (edit: i did do something a bit to the left in that it wasn't endverse, buuuuuuut...) but i'm not sure it adds that much to endverse. certainly not outside the context of this specific fic. i do kinda miss the original scene i had planned where dean was like [pointing between cas' legs] what the hell is that and cas was like popular among the people of camp chitaqua ;). also i have a great fondness for tangibly inhuman endverse cas <3.

“O-Of course.” Dean swallows.

“Anyways. Angels are… we were built by our Father. Or… we were built for our Father. And every angel… every angel has a hollow. At the center. It’s meant for worship. There’s this emptiness inside us, all of us, and it’s meant to be where we receive His love but…” he trails off. Dean thinks about Cas. His Cas. Was he empty? Was he hungry like that? When Anna said that only four angels had ever met God…

when angels are empty. like the thing about angels is that they were built to love and worship god but they LITERALLY never knew him. and they were never supposed to! isn't that cruel?? like even demons are twisted to love something that is present, even if they are tortured and brainwashed into it. angels are literally built FROM SCRATCH to love god and he never planned to be there. evil evil evil.

“And you… you were vicious. When I picked you up. You didn’t want to go, and I think maybe you were terrified of me, and you screamed and struggled and snarled and snapped and I just… I couldn’t hold you. I couldn’t hold you and fight off the demons that were all over the place trying to stop me. So I just… I took you inside. I took you into the place where my Father was supposed to be. And I… God, I don’t remember what it was like, fighting my way out.” Cas sighs. Takes a deep breath. Dean thinks maybe he remembers. Nothing clear. But a cleansing white light, first shining on him, then all around him. And a feeling of…

i love it when cas puts dean in the hollow where god was. worship. deification. consumption. new forms of daddy kink never before invented.

“I know it was bad. It felt like every demon in Hell was trying to stop me. Maybe they were. But all I could feel was you, this feral thing, biting and scratching so deep in me and it was… it was more than I’d ever felt before.” 

i truly do believe that this is the vibes of what happened in canon. when castiel experiences internal abrasion by tooth or claw resulting in fertilization <3.

Dean can feel the blood rushing in his ears. 

“More than the exhilaration of battle. More than the joy of the Song. More than the horror of an abomination like your brother. It was… God.” Cas shifts under Dean, and Dean thinks he can feel the start of a bulge in Cas’ ridiculous hippie pants.

haha did you catch the double meaning. god is a normal exclamation there but it's also like. "it was god" = deifying dean and the experience of having dean in him where god was meant to be.

 “And when I spat you out, I could still feel it. It was terrifying. I was so empty and now I knew what it was like. You gouged pieces out of me I didn’t even know were there. I couldn’t fill it.” 

Cas fingers Dean’s waistband, slipping the tip of his thumb under to caress the soft skin underneath, and Dean’s stomach muscles clench. He feels his thighs go tight against Cas’ hips. It’s just self-preservation to grab Cas’ wrist.

“You know, I tried. I tried to lose myself in the Song for a long time. Angels aren’t really… we’re not like you. Our minds aren’t… fully autonomous.” Dean can feel Cas’ fingers as he starts fiddling with the button on Dean’s jeans. 

[citation]. i love youuuuu hivemind boy. also. borg drone moment.

“The boundaries between my thoughts and my brothers’ are… it’s not clear where the line is. Or it wasn’t, when I still had brothers. But I tried to lose myself in them, to stop being Castiel and just be an angel, but none of them- I was too different. None of them understood. None of them understood what it was like to have been full and then empty again. I was so alone and I wanted…” Cas lays big hands on Dean’s thighs, grasping the meat of them. Dean shivers. Rolls his hips automatically.

i am always very intrigued about cas as a being discovering desire. like i don't really think of cas as a creature that had an independent, unique will before he was sort of forcibly jolted into the world by dean and the mission. like i think that's how most angels are. they are part of a whole and if they sing out of key they get lobotomized. so cas is like. he is really discovering the twin concepts of desire and dissatisfaction at once. he is the freudian baby removed from the breast and forced to experience that separation for the first time. i've written a lot of other fanfiction about this, or, well, at least two. like the thing about cas is that he's kind of learning emotional maturity on the fly, lmao. like he's never had to regulate his own behavior and emotions before, that's always been done with orders and hivemindiness and punishments and lobotomies. cas has never needed to deal with anything like that before. he's an intellectual adult with the level of emotional experience of a toddler, or rather, he starts that way. he's had to work on it. also note: the implication here is that all of this, the trying to lose himself among his brothers, took place during canon season four and happened with our cas as well.

“God, I wanted. I tried everything. Sex, drugs, and even rock and roll.” Cas’ eyes are wide open now. Open, and clear enough to slice right through him. Clear enough to bite right into him. “ Nothing fills me up like you, Dean.”

can't fill it can you? not with food, drink, not even with sex. i don't think endverse cas is truly pulling a dean here as such. the thing about endverse cas is that he is both a genuine hedonist and also "substituting short term pleasure for long term happiness." like the thing is cas does absolutely enjoy sex drugs and rock n roll but he is also like. one, he has lost the communion of heaven, and two, now that he has truly known desire for the first time he can never unknow it, he will always hunger for more. but also... he does just want dean. like dean is what he wants. if he had dean, that would satisfy him. but he doesn't. so he's kinda fucked.

And Dean remembers now. He remembers being on the rack. Off the rack. He remembers Alastair beside him, whispering in his ear as he- and then remembers the light coming. And he remembers the feeling. 

The inescapable terror of prey.

the thing is. okay. the thing is this fic is one more in a very long line of fanfictions by me in which dean is like. he is tortured by the experience of cas' desire for him. like this fic is more on the "cas' desire is terrifying" side. as i said earlier, cas has only just learned what it is to want. thus his desire is not tempered. it is absolute and demanding and predatory. it consumes and destroys. but i'm also just interested in dean's horror of being desired in general. like the thing about dean is that he is the ken doll he is the marlboro man he is the cowboy and he has to be those things and it tortures him and being desired as those things tortures him more and makes it real. and he's spent his whole life being objectified (sexually and otherwise) in the course of his work as a hunter. like, he's played bait and flirted his way through security doors and kissed monsters to get a spit sample his whole life. he's been valued for what his body can do his whole life. he's been having casual sex with random women because it's what a man does or because it's the only human connection he can get, take your pick, his whole life. he spent his formative years as an extraordinarily beautiful teenage boy hanging around bar rooms and motels on the fringes, places filled with gropey drunk adult men. dean's relationship with other people being attracted to him is going to be tortured at best. like that stuff doesn't come up too much in this fic but it's something on my mind generally when the topic comes up. cas may be fixing to eat dean up, but for dean, it feels like all desire is going too eat him up.

Dean shivers, his mouth too dry to speak. He licks his lips instead.

well. i said all that. but it's also a turn-on, being afraid. at least for dean. he wants to be eaten up so bad.

Cas reaches up to Dean’s shoulder, puts a hand on his sleeve, and Dean can feel something pulse from the scar there. From Cas’ brand on him. Cas grabs him, hand over where they both know the handprint sits on his skin, and pulls him down until Dean is folded nearly in half. Until their noses brush, and Dean can feel Cas’ hot breath on his lips.

“So, if I can’t have every part of you in me,” he traces one finger up the line of Dean’s zipper, “the least you can do is give me your cock.”

Ideas for Combination Magickodahs

So, I was considering some ideas of combination magic, in part because it's a pity some of these combinations will likely never see the light of Black Clover's pages or the Black Clover Mobile game, or even the anime. To be honest, they aren't that well thought-out, but, eh. You can still use 'em if you want.

Trap Magic x Mist Magic -- Trapper's Confusion

A thick mist spreads across an area, underwhich are concealed traps which can't be sensed because their mana signature is concealed by the mist magic. Furthermore, illusions of Nebra and Zora clones pop up randomly to distract the opposition. Works better on strangers.

World Tree Magic x Fire Magic -- Inferno ex Elysium / Forest Phoenix

(Specifically for William and Mereoleona)

A giant form of a floral phoenix initially creates an animated barrier between the allies and the opposition. From the back of the phoenix, plantlife starts sprouting an a soothing aura spreads, healing/regenerating the allies. But then the front catches on fire, the giant bird claps its wings in the face of the opposition, and spreads fire on the oppositions half of the battlefield, causing burn damage, creating immense heat on one half of the battlefield and overall creating an inhospitable environment that acts to drain the opposition of mana. The bird may then attack for as long as it is boosted by both users magic -- which may require extra prep-time.

Light Magic x Sealing Magic - Light Purgatory / Sealed Sanctuary

One is a form of restraining magic which can restrain multiple enemies in an area of brilliant, blinding light where they may even die if trapped too long. The other is a protective, barrier spell which also doubles as a healing spell.

Mirror Magic x Transformation Magic - Mirror Metamorphosis

A combination of Gauche's and Grey's magic, which gives each user a mirror. Whatever reflection they see in it is the form they can take -- it can also function as a means of creating clones of someone you have seen but isn't present in the battlefield, but Grey/Gauche needs to have seen them before.

Mirror Magic x Mist Magic - Hall of Mirrors

Creates a confusing mase of mirrors which seeks to disorient the opposition through presenting illusions of mages that look like they are standing there as the mirror aspect of it can't really be seen -- it can also create physical duplicates/clones of the allies.

Mercury Magic x Dream Magic - Toxic Dreamscape

Basically, it traps the opposition into a sort of nightmare scape that is the result fo combining mercury magic and dream magic. It can disorient, de-buff, restrain and even kill the opposition, especially the longer they last there. Also, you have a greater chance of being poisoned by breathing in mercury gas which is in the surrounding air. But allies are provided with gas masks.

Water Spirit Magic x Song Magic - (1) Oceans Lullaby, (2) Twin Sirens

(1) Creates a song/water barrier with healing properties spreading through the inside of the barrier. Radius depends on how much mana is available among other factors.

(2) Utilising Undine, and ultimate magic, it allows both Noelle and Kahono to tranform provided they both have sufficient mana. Kahono's side of the spell gives the transformation de-buff/incapacitate abilities (through allowing both users to "sing" people either to sleep/insanity/etc) and offensive powers come from Noelle's side of the spell. On the other hand, if one of the transformation fails, the other does too.

Antimagic x Fire Magic - Antifire/Inflammable Hellscape

Turns out inflammable just means it catches fire easily. So yeah, it's very firey, and prevents the establishment of the opposition's magical spells through being overpowering both in terms of anti magic and firemagic.

Plant Magic / Steel Magic - Steel Garden

Mimosa and Klaus' magic combined to create a garden of steel flowers which defend and heal the allies, while showing their steel thorns to the enemy. The steel flowers can also spread and become a menace by hijacking the enemies spells through their steel seeds which then blossom into flowers and control the spell to Mimosa & Klaus' liking instead.

Fire Magic x Snow Magic - (1) Volatile Weather (2) Cosy Winter Wonderland

(1) Creates extreme and fluctuating weather events that require the opposition to use mana for mana skins thus draining them of their mana. It can also inflict burn/freeze damage on the enemy - might even set them on fire/cause frostbite. The allies are protected by a combination of fire and snow mana skin that works in tandem with the changing climate.

(2) Creates a beautiful but lethal winter wonderland using Fragil's side of the spell which can incapacitate or weaken the enemy, and allows for heated defensive armour (with lions on it) from Fuego's side of the spell to be used for the allies.

Lightning x Scissor Magic - Scissor Blitz

Scissors made of lightning come blitzing down on the opposition, attacking them from various sides. It's a fast and therefore hard to dodge attack. (Also Helene Barbary has scissor magic. Pity she isn't a magic knight. Maybe with some training her magic could be pretty overpowered, considering what Jack's magic could do.)

Paint Magic x Food Magic - Divine Desserts

Through food art, fields of icing and seas of sticky toffee, and cream incapacitate or slow down the enemy, while being a source of mana regeneration and a certain degree of immortality for the allies (allies might report feeling more youthful/rejuvenated, too). This can also allow for the spell to potentially be endless, unless Charmy is taken out.

Paint Magic x Cotton Magic - (1) Sheep Gods / (2) Painting Sheep

(1) Creates Gods shaped like sheep which pummel the enemy using a mixture of paint and cotton magic.

(2) Charmy's cotton sheep function as sort of assistant painters who borrow from Rill's specific attribute in order to be able to use the spells he can use. Depending on how much of Rill's mana they have soaked up in their wool - which can be seen by how paint covered their wool is - they can continue casting Rill's spells even after Rill's lost the ability to, and can since there's more of them, it means they can attack from more sides. They may further be boosted by good magic.

Samwena in 11x01 “Out of the Darkness, Into the Fire”?

In 11x01, both Dean and Sam claim to be the one who freed the Darkness:

When in truth, it was clearly neither of them who set the Darkness free.

It was Rowena, not Sam, who cast the spell in 10x23.

Sam wasn’t even present when that spell was cast. He and Dean were busy elsewhere—just spending a pleasant day, Winchester-style:

They were together in the same room when that lightning bolt crashed down from the sky and removed the mark from Dean’s arm in 10x23:

At this point, Dean already knew that Sam had been working behind his back to remove the mark. And that Sam had dragged both Charlie and Cas into it. So there is no point in secrecy about any of this any longer.

The one thing Dean doesn’t know about is Rowena’s involvement. Yes, there’s a 10x23 deleted scene where Crowley tells him about that in a dreamscape bar. But I’m not sure if or if not we should count deleted scenes as fully canon.

Normally I tend to do that. But then why would Sam reinforce Dean’s assumption that Sam is the one who cast the spell?

The only possible explanation my tired brain can think of right now is that Sam is actually covering for Rowena, so that Dean doesn’t have a new reason to go after her?

But still... why, after Sam himself (indirectly) threatened to kill her in 10x22?

Was Sam just bluffing towards Cas? Again, why do that?

What in the holy Samwena derangement is all this?? Can anyone make more sense of this than me in my sleep-deprived state?

[pinknatural]

ok so in the stanford-era emmanatural patricide fic i was going to have cas be on earth hunting with dean but i can't think of a reason cas would do that so is it better if dean & cas are hanging out in a dreamscape and falling in love there?

[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

My weird ass: “everything the actors have done since can be seen as a unified postcanon. It’s not going especially well, it is Spn after all, but it works strangely well. Anyway, the ‘Gates’ that Ruby warned Sam about are the Gates of Janus, which are a Roman thing. When they’re open, it signifies a state of war. They’re open because Janus is an annoying yet persuasive douche and managed to convince Cas to let him use the vessel for a few minutes, at which point everyone’s least favorite (literal) two-faced war deity split Cas’ true form right in half to power his Gate Thing. Can Cas be saved? I don’t know, but given that ‘A Hellgate, But Specifically For War’ is VERY bad news, those gates do need to close. I don’t know which dogs Ruby was talking about and I’m afraid to find out. Also Sam’s got yet another werewolf gf, and Ruby had his kids back in the 2000s and unironically named them Edward and Stella because “ha ha, blood drinking” I guess, they’re college-age now and both are witches, Blurrywife is some kind of Fae thing and hella evil, might be one of Eileen’s hunts and is just doing this to fuck with her, this blurry bitch ate Sam/imprisoned his soul in some sort of Eternal Cowboy Dreamscape (why tho) but at least she’s currently getting her ass kicked, idk where Dean Jr went and I’m worried abt him. Cas and Meg have a kid, everything is vaguely Celtiberian like that one spnwin ep, Hell is at war with itself, Azazel is wearing John, the Second Coming of Christ is happening but Girljesus is a genuinely great person, the rebar was cursed and Hell used it to control Dean and send him on a time-travel rampage to alter history in their favor. Dean banged one of the Morriganae back in that one ep where he was abducted by The Fae, and she’s still kind of obsessed with him. Jack is possessed and picking fights with Girljesus. Where is Sam’s body? Not with his soul. What’s it doing? Violence. Anyway”

Some so-called Supernatural fans: "The actors have all moved on. There is no need for a 16th season."

Misha Collins: "I found Castiel in my carpet."
