#cas’ top poetry traxx

[vendettasfanfictioning]

Since I can't, y'know, shut my mouth, I decided it's better to make a whole ass post about this so thank you @juniperjello for asking.

Here are my Top 13 Destiel Traxx AKA Fic Recs:

And This, Your Living Kiss (M) is a GODSEND I've read this more times than I can count, I even have NerdyNerdenstein's podfic of it saved on my phone, it is that good. It stars poet! Dean relearning his love for the arts and Literature professor! Castiel, whose favorite author just so happens to be Jack Allen (AKA Dean). I also love love loved the family dynamics here, it's all so homey and cozy. The poetry in this is stunning too. Highly recommend this one!

A Thousand Lies (E) follows con artist! Dean on his latest assignment of unraveling rich businessman! Crowley's secrets by playing as his secretary, all the while juggling dates with accountant! Castiel. Except there's more to them than meets the eye, and the plot gets thicker and thicker until you find yourself stuck to your phone for more than 4 hours, hopping from one chapter to the next. Yes that's exactly what happened to me lmao I was hooked, and stories like these where the angel fam are humans are always so fun. I love spotting the parallels and whatnot.

(goldenraeofsun, author of the previous fic, has a ton of fics I highly recommend so if you vibe with their style, go check out their account! I was torn about what to put here between "The Original Apple Pie Latte", "Not the Fire, but the Spark" and this—also I'm pretty sure I have half of their works bookmarked by now 😭)

Forget-Me-Not Blues (E) has all the correct vibes of a classic early 2000s romcom. It's set in Sam and Jessica's wedding, with Dean as the former's best man and Castiel as the latter's. Oh, and did I mention they have history? A particularly roughly-broken high school love story? That they absolutely refuse to acknowledge so now the wedding prep is so full of tension it's choking everybody? Yeah... This is a good one.

An Exercise In 'Worthless' (M) is one of the first destiel fics I've ever read. At that point, I was only on S2 or S3 and had no idea what was happening or who most of the other cast was, but the vibes were immaculate and reading it again as I progressed through the show, it just kept getting better. It's got tattoo artist! Dean whose shop is set up beside Gabriel's cafe (it's called the Physical Graffitea heh). It's got grad student! Castiel attending the same uni as Sam for a niche course in dialects. It's got Dean thinking Cas is more interested than Sam (missing the heart eyes Sam and Gabe are giving each other). It's got family feels!!!!!! as these four idiots live normal, non-supernatural lives!!!!!!!

Kissing Strangers (T/E) is a happy(!!!!!) queer awakening story, wherein Castiel realizes he's not as straight as he thought when he gets kissed by Dean for a social experiment. There's actually three fics in the series, the first one covers The Kiss while the next two are insights on the progress of destiel's relationship. It's really neat, and the author—sharkfish—has a lot of fics I've been reading this past week. (They have a lot of good ace! dean and/or ace! cas fics!!!!!!!!!!)

In Due Time (Dean Winchester is Saved) (T) is not only touching as hell but also mind-blowing. 26-year-old Dean is zapped to the future by an unknown power, and what does he see? Himself, happily settled; married to an angel of the frickin' lord with a son; and his brother, still hunting. THIS FIC IS AN ABSOLUTE GEM!!!! Baby Dean interacting with Cas means So Much to me.

Broadway Musical (T) is, in my humble opinion, an absolute banger and a classic. It's got the fun, lighthearted tone of a romcom and my favorite trope of "they may all be dicks but at least there's no murder" with the angel family. It's a reimagining of the first ever Armageddon: what if, instead of being the Righteous Man himself, Dean was chosen to father the two brothers of old with Jo Harvelle, with the entire Host of angels excitedly chattering about it in heaven. Except the cupid's arrow doesn't sink in, to either Dean or Jo, and they don't fall in love. So good ol' Cas comes down to take matters into his own (awkward) hands.

Sand and Salt (E) continues off of S9 fallen angel! Castiel. The timeline is important to me for two reasons, namely: Kevin and Charlie. Destiel are highlighted at the second half but the first is just Sam, Dean, Kevin, and Charlie helping Cas settle in as a human. They go to a mall to shop and eat and bond and they are so, so precious to me.

Carnival Oasis (E) is a series as well, but it's honestly SO worth it. We have creature! Castiel who eats sin and extremely guilty! Dean who first confessed his sins to Cas as a way to gauge what the fuck he is. But then he kept coming back. They get all gooey and shit here, as they should be. Plus the reveal on Cas' background??? It made me go insane I swear.

Convenient Husbands (E) is honestly just. So good. I've reread it multiple times over the past few weeks and it never gets tiring. This one's about hunter! Dean and Garuda! Castiel forming a marriage bond... Purely for convenience, of course. I'm also obsessed with the set-up of the hunting community in this AU, they got a whole network and base and it's awesome you should definitely read it. (Annie D also has a lot of fics on AO3 that you should check out—I'm very partial to "It's Always the End of the World Somewhere"!!)

This Witch!Cas AU series is based off of probably my most favorite story prompts to ever trend in Tumblr history: it's about witch! Cas who's moved to town after his grandmother's passing. Madame Novak's will is all that everyone's talking about, as it states that Castiel needs to marry to not only inherit the estate but also to keep his magick. Gardener and shopkeeper! Dean finds this tasteless, what with everyone treating Cas like he's just some prize and not, y'know, a person. Then, Castiel makes an announcement: he ties the key to the estate to his cat's collar, and whoever gets the key may take his hand as well. Everyone scrambles to chase after the surprisingly smart feline... except for Dean, who's slowly warming up to the little guy, and the cat to him in return.

it's brighter now (G/T) is actually a series but!!! It's a babyjackverse like come on, how can you resist that? This speaks for itself and it says all you will ever need in a fic, which is BABY JACK!!!!!!!!!!

conversations between brother & sister (T) is, simply put, criminally short but perfectly encapsulated my ideal ending for Supernatural. It's two fics; the first is about Jack and Emma, and the second is about Jack and Claire. The reason this is here is because I am a firm believer that this deserves more recognition and love and we need more AUs like this. Destiel are so, so tender and sweet but the main focus is, of course, Jack's conflicting feelings. I would leave a hundred thousand kudos on this if I could.

[159potterhead]

Oh! I thought I've to make up for it with a poetry. I'm sorry I didn't knew you were looking for hurt poem. You know I could never say no to you. So here it is;

***

I opened my dash to see someone flirting with you,

Wondering do you still love me too?

I thought I was in a queue,

With several other people and a small crew,

It was all so new and I didn't wanna screw,

Worrying if you see me as a residue,

I couldn't help myself but to argue,

I'm so sorry, Honey, I had no clue,

And I didn't thought it through,

It was all out of the blue,

I didn't knew it was untrue,

Wish I could fix things back with a glue,

So everything would be undo,

And it all happened so fast

I thought we are not meant to last.

***

(Idk. I just wasn't satisfied with the last poem it wasn't fitting into me yk and I had to do this again.)

HOLY SHITTT!!! YOU MADE THAT??? FOR ME??? ALL THOSE SONGS ARE IN ORDER OF THE ASK!!! ADVDAVSFVFS.😭😭😭😭😭 I'm crying...The very first song is photograph and I cant–I just cant– (previous gif if you remember) hold on a second man–hold on a second. THAT'S OUR SONG!!! And those Polaroid pictures ✨✨✨ THEY GIVE ME US VIBES!! THAT'S LITERALLY US IF WE EVER MEET! I want to stand in that kitchen beside you. I want to cuddle with you on a rainy night and fall asleep like that with our arms entangled around each other ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I'm really crying this is really modern version of DEAN'S TOP 13 ZEPP TRAXX!!! (I'm really crying no one has ever done anything like this for me❤️ I LOVE YOU SOOO MUCH😘😘) Are you like a person??? Coz I still can't believe you exists!! Can you believe this people my gf just made me a mixtape, and I falling more in love with her!!😘🤗 Get your dress I'm marrying you righ away my beloved!!! I don't care if people won't make it to the Avenue. I'M HIGH ON YOUR LOVE TODAY!!💕💕💞💞💞💞💖💖

Anything is fine by me as long as I get to marry you!! I hope you have settled on a lovely dress but I bet everything looks perfect on you coz you're so gorgeous my love😚💕🤗😍😍

You did not just say archery!! I had this craze for learning archery coz lotr phase and I loved Legolas and elfs. I find it hot. Yeah, I know that trick I've been a victim of it too. But for Archery my parents were like learn some useful skill coz you can't run around with a bow and arrow all the time if some emergency happens. If there's a thief you can't just shoot him with an arrow.

(I was making a list of songs that you tell me about but you were one step ahead of me and I gotta say I didn't expected that. I really loveeeeee loveeeee youu soooo sooo muchh Loveeerrrr😘❤️💖💖)

🎶Can I go where you go? Can we always be this close forever and ever? And ah, take me out, and take me home, you're my, my, my, my, Looooover🎶

ok I made another one with all the songs, and left the one I made earlier for only songs with actual “dancing” vibes

*** ohhh. oh no it’s okay you don‘t have to...😬

*** wooooooah!!! babe that was deep. I still love you, and we were meant to last!!! I promise never to make you this mad again🥺

**** the last poem was iconic pls😂 I loved it. YEESSSHDHSJJXNDKD!!!! YES IN ORDER, I’M GLAD YOU NOTICED!! yeah, our song😭😭😭 OUR SONG!!!! I KNOW RIGHHTT!!!😆💞💞 I want that too🥺❤️❤️ WAIIIIT... THIS IS GIVING ME ANOTHER IDEA😳 (awwbsjsj! I’m happy i’m the first😚) idk, am I??👽🛸 OMGGG SKISOS OK BRB💖💖✨✨✨

well... I was thinking of showing up in my pj’s🤔 unless you want me to get a dress... i’ve got just the thing in mind😌✨ but no matter how beautiful the dress is, you’re gonna wear it 10x better I just know;)

another point for our soulmates bingo!! okay that is a reasonable excuse. we really should be allowed to walk around with bows and arrows.

(I read your mind I guess😏💞 ily ily ilysm ilyyyy😚😚😚)

🎶we could leave the christmas lights up till January, and this is our place, we make the rules. and there's a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you dear, have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years?🎶💕

ahah perfect reaction!! yessss I really diddd!!!🥺💞💞💞

plantdadcas destiel fic rec part 2: electric boogaloo

Hello everyone! I have continued to consume fic at an alarming rate since I made my last large fic rec post, so here is part 2! Again, all fics are canon verse, I don’t read much AU. 50+ below the cut:

GOD TIER FICS/MUST READS 

These are all personal favorites that I swear by. Read them or die by my sword (jk... unless?) I listed a lot of these in my last fic rec post, but I thought it would be helpful to compile all my favs in once place! In no particular order:

All Things Shining by askance, 141k. literal masterpiece. canon verse, but has auish mythology. Road trip vibes. Very plotty. Great OC’s. I love this fic, it does NOT get enough credit! this is an all things shining stan account

So Says the Sword by komodobits, 85k. impeccable, masterpiece, prompted the “castiel did you fuck the michael sword?” jokes. alternate season 4. I quite literally have decided to treat this fic as canon in my head. just got to s4 in my rewatch and it TRULY makes s4 hit different. a must read! 

Named by RC_McLachlan, 94k, alternate s5. I once saw someone describe this fic as, paraphrasing, blasphemous in a fun sexy way. Plotty, and brave enough to ask: what if we killed Jesus in the supernatural universe?

Dean (and Cas’) Top 13 Zepp Traxx by pantheon_of_discord, 82k. post-series (written in 2017) deancas roadtrip! one of the first fics I read when i got back into fandom and boy oh boy is it a masterpiece. 

a turn of the earth by microcomets, 95k, time travel fic where cas on the run gets stuck in pre-series dean’s timeline. cannot say enough about how good this fic is! an instant classic for me. time travel fics imo are pretty hit or miss, but this one is flawlessly executed!

Tall Grass by aeli_kindara, 57k, post series written in 2017. LISTEN, if you follow my blog (or just read my URL) you KNOW how obsessed I am with the concept of plant dad cas. this fic is THEE plant dad cas Bible. everything about this fic is perfect. bonus: has a great OC! 

Teaching Poetry to Fish by aeli_kindara, 52k, another aeli_kindara fic! this fic is destiel, but cas-centric and gives us the cas lore that we deserve! bonus is that it includes a lot of beautiful poetry :) excellent read for cas girls or dean girls who are therefore in love with cas or sam girls who are therefore bff’s with cas or jack girls who love cas or-

Aprés by imogenbynight, 24k, I am obsessed with this fic. I remember when it came out in 2013, it was THEE post-s8 fic. very, very cute. dean and cas in paris :) 

FIC RECS

i crippled your heart a hundred times by bravest, 19k, set after s8, cas confesses his love to dean and he takes some time to digest it. honestly love this fic bc i feel like this is exactly how dean would react to a love confession. it felt very in character to me

Tacoma by ellispark, 20k, canon divergent s15 after the deancas breakup, angst with a happy ending. dean reevaluates his life and goes after cas (as he should’ve!) who is trying to figure it out on his own 

Hope and Clay by tabulaxrasa, 20k set after 12x12. great sam, dean, mary, cas case fic! dean and cas trying to figure it out. has literally one of my favorite dean lines from a fic ever: "Oh my god, stop talking. Right now. Forever. You're not supposed to cry when other people have sex. What is wrong with you? Christ. I am embarrassed for both of us."

profoundly bonded (by law) by sobsicles, 20k, post-canon written in 2020. dean and cas get married, and THEN dean figures his shit out. fellas is it gay to marry your best friend. soft domestic vibes 

the taste of gravel in the mouth by deathbanjo, 22k, post s9. This is what Cas gave up Heaven for: greasy diner food, shitty motel rooms with even shittier cable, long car rides spent in complete silence except for the same six tapes playing over and over again, and a burnt-out husk of a man who can barely hold a conversation anymore.

Seek to Know You Better by ahurston, 27k. post-canon. another 36 questions that lead to love fic can you tell that i’m obsessed? this one is a roadtrip and has some cases in it too. so wholesome

Love: A Retrospective by xylodemon, 40k, set post s12, angst with a happy ending. brave enough to ask what we’ve all been thinking: what if they’ve been hooking up this whole time? excellent fic 

Heroes for Ghosts by panethon_of_discord, 42k, canon-divergent after 12.08 when sam and dean get arrested. Cas stops at nothing to rescue them. listen, I haven’t even SEEN s12 yet and i just know this is better than whatever the spn writers came up with 

Someone Who’s Feeling For Me by ellispark, 45k. absolute PEAK deancas being idiots and miscommunicating. case fic that involves lisa! i love lisa in this fic she’s so cool. set in s12

IPAMIS OL OLPRIT by emmbrancsxx0, 56k. set in s14, john winchester comes back from the dead and (obviously) causes problems. cathartic in the sense that shit gets to be hashed out (as it should have been) also plotty! and established relationship 

Emergence by ellispark, 58k, this fic was interesting! plotty. dean, sam, and eileen have their memories of cas erased. cue them running into the mysterious jimmy novak three years later. angsty at times 

what stays (and what fades away) by dothraki_shieldmaiden, 64k. loved this fic. i don’t want to spoil anything, but it’s a djinn-esque fic where cas gets stuck between two worlds

*The Goldenrod Revisions by aethylas, 65k, script-style rewrite post 15x18. i loved this! i could not put it down. I thought the author did such an excellent job wrapping up the series in a very satisfying way and it all seemed like it could have happened in canon. This seriously gave me the closure that I needed and did not get. I HIGHLY recommend this one. 

Memories Bring Back Memories (Bring Back You) by sobsicles, 66k, Dean and Cas wake up with no memory of who they are, but they’re pretty sure they’re serial killers. lots of pining, miscommunication, and relationship drama. I read this fic between the hours of 2am-6am like god intended i couldn’t put it down

Forgotten by NorthernSparrow, 161k, set mid season 9 and goes canon-divergent. OH BOY where to even start with this fic? first, it’s not technically destiel. HOWEVER there is a massive sequel that IS destiel so essentially this is just the slow burn to end all slow burns. technically a case fic, involves memory loss, plotty, interesting mythology, great mystery! excellent fic. 

Flight by NorthernSparrow, 319k, sequel that follows the events of Forgotten. "glacially slow romance”, wing fic/angel lore, warning that there is a lot of angsty and hurt cas (as a cas girl this hurt me to read. but the fic is worth it) great oc’s from the last fic, excellent plot. NorthernSparrow outdid themselves, truly we are blessed. both these fics are worth the read imo!

16x01 Witchy Business by @katistry script-style. The TikTok witch Sam episode of Supernatural that we deserved. I didn’t know where to put this because it doesn’t have a word count listed but it is quite literally the funniest thing I’ve ever read. I had tears rolling down my face bc i was laughing so hard 

ONGOING FICS these are some ongoing fics that I’m following and have loved so far!

ascend by quiettewandering @wanderingcas cannot say enough about how much i love this fic and how much i look forward to reading the update every sunday! fix-it fic set after 15x19 :) 

A Glimpse Beyond by NorthernSparrow, oh boy when i found out that NorthernSparrow from Flight/Forgotten fame was doing a s15 fix-it fic i SPRINTED to ao3. can’t wait to read the rest! 4 chapters up so far

The Pull of Us by @shelikestv (ao3) set pre-series 11. a memory loss fic that i’ve been following. i am obsessed! the mystery of it all is killing me and i get so excited seeing an update!

AS ALWAYS if one of your favs was missing from this list PLEASE drop a link in my inbox. I’m always looking for new fic to read and rec :) ALSO I have a fic rec tag on my blog and a tag for tumblr ficlets

Deans Top 13 Zepp Traxx

I’m having some feelings about that darned mixtape this morning. Not just “omg making a mixtape is a romantic gesture...” and not just “I wonder what songs he picked....”

It dawned on me that even though there seem to be some glaring omissions in Metatron’s “Cultural Knowledge” download, the possibility exists that Cas “knew” the songs, in the shallow way that he “knew” the poetry of Muriel Rukeyser. And Dean wanted Cas to really know these songs that were so important to him. To know Dean, by knowing these songs.

“I want you to know me. I have given you a gift of a small portion of my being. I want you to keep this piece of me with you while you’re away from me even though I’m mad at you right this second.”

Romantic or not, that’s just so intimate that I can’t even cope with it this morning.

[billiewena]

HEY HI I JUST SAW YOUR TAGS ON THE MUSENATURAL DEANCAS POST pls can u drop the cas muse playlist, muse are on of my favorite bands ever and cas is one of my favorite characters ever so id love to see it <3

helllll yeah. apparently I had three different playlists (+ Muse songs in just my general destiel playlist) so just merged them all into this one.

also you didn’t ask but CASTIEL’S TOP MUSE TRAXX:

Defector - he came off the line with a crack in his chassis, babyyyy. this is second only to “angel with a shotgun” as THEE Castiel rebel angel anthem for me, if I ever made an AMV of Cas being a baddie it’d be to this song

Unintended - tfw when you decide to choose your love for a human over the only life you’ve ever known and your entire world has been changed/destroyed but you have to believe it’s for the better and maybe you finally have something to live for rather than just a cause to die for. also, when your relationship is quite literally unintended and wasn’t even supposed to be a part of this story.

The Globalist - a long track that perfectly captures the godstiel arc (and especially the depressing post-godstiel fallout from heaven)

Undisclosed Desires - okay okay another deancas track but look, “I want to reconcile the violence in your heart?” “I know you’ve suffered but I don’t want you to hide?” “I want to exorcise the demons from your past?” “I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart?” literally the cas POV song of their relationship. it can be a very sexy song ofc, but at its core it’s very much about being in love with someone who wears a mask and being the one they’re comfortable enough to set it down around. it’s been like that for them ever since “you don’t think you deserve to be saved?” and I just think that’s neat!

Follow Me - the dadstiel / cas & jack theme song (basically cas’s dear theodosia) since I am very soft about them. he’ll keep him safe and protect him! he’ll be there when he’s scared and lost!

Dig Down - you know the happy feeling that cas's speech in "gimme shelter" about finding purpose gives you? yeah, that's this song personified. anyways, dabb-era cas theme song now that he’s found hope and a reason to keep fighting against chuck himself wow I love him

honestly I could go on and on about how well Muse captures Cas: badass and powerful one second and soft, quietly romantic the next. some songs are poetry and symphonies, some are battle anthems and heavy guitar shredding rockers. I love them (and him).

[159potterhead]

You want a poetry? I'm gonna give you the freaking poetry. Take your seat my love! (Since I need a headstart or a word to continue further and you didn't give any hint so I'll do on today's situation)

**takes the mic 🎤*** This one goes to that pretty girl with pretty eyes. I hurted her and I want to make up to her with something I wrote. I hope by the end of it she'll take me back. **Make some noise people!*** (As always the rap is without the break)

I must have sounded ridiculous,

When I got jealous,

Tho I never meant to cause all that fuss,

But baby you're my crush,

And it's only supposed to be us,

How would have I known it was just a bluff?

Everyone knows that you're a hot stuff and it's my fault I got into a rush, 'cause I thought there's a mistress that shall remain nameless, I was getting restless on seeing those flowers at our doorstep, I should have taken a backstep,

But in all seriousness,

I want to tell you you're my Love,

My beloved, you're my dove,

Hush! Hush! My baby! I'll give you a hug!

Oh! Please, don't you blush!

Do you wanna go to the club?

Just to try out my luck.

Believe me when I say I'm not a wuss,

Turns out I'm a thug,

But don't you worry cus I don't do drugs,

Maybe 'cause I only have a few bucks,

Can we buy a duck?

Coz I don't give a fuck,

We can chug at the mug,

Which reminds me I forgot to flush,

When I went to brush,

Because there was a bug,

On the rug,

So, I went with my gut,

And ended up with a cut,

While reading lot of smut,

Which drive me nuts!

(This one was not that good as the earlier ones coz I didn't made a lot of puns, I was busy making a bun for a nun who has to go on a run because of her son who has a gun which isn't fun)

You don't have to make it up for anything my love. I love you the way you are and I trust you 😘❤️ Although, I'm wondering why you asked about Spotify, were you planning to do Dean's top 13 Zepp traxx?? What was all that about 🤔🤔

I mean every relationship has ups and down yk. I hope our fans still ship us!

We're really doing the wedding? Huh? The virtual deancas one!! We can invite all your followers here. And throw a big party.

Like actual ability. I would maybe like to be more extrovert idk if that counts as ability. And for real ability I would like to learn any of ball room dance like tango or rumba those sort of dance. I always like the chemistry between two dancers and how they maintain the flow and their moves matches it's something magical. I also do like watching tap dancing. So I would love to have those skills.

What skills do you wish to have? (And do tell me about this poetry and rap)

that’s what I said. oh god, you’ll never let this go💀

wait what? I thought you were gonna write about how I hurt you. “I never even let you go in the first place to get you back!” I shout from the crowd, and everyone around goes “aaawww!”

okay... that is... something.... honestly I liked it a lot cause it’s so random😂😂 hell yeah we’ll get a duck!😂 baby you’re my crush😚 I liked that. I really did. thank you for those... random but delightful words. such a piece of poetry👩🏻‍🍳🤌🏼💋

(I love when you’re still caught up in the rhyming, it’s hilarious and cute!😂💞 but srsly someone stop that son with a gun)

that means a lot<3 and of course I would never do anything to make you actually jealous on purpose. oh yeah... behold: look what I made you 😏📼🎵

oh they better!

hmm... why don’t we just go somewhere quiet alone and get married by the beach or something. unless you do want the big ceremony?

oh yeah that does make sense. I AGREE!!! it’s so mesmerizing watching a pair dancing so in-sync with each other and flowing together so smoothly like the dance was made for just the both of them.

I guess we’ll skip the poetry and rap for this question ahah. I think i’d want to be fluent in like... four other languages, including sign language. and maybe archery🤔 i’ve always wanted to be an archer but you know how it is, ”okay we’ll sign you up for classes on your break.” then nothing happens for years and you just give up trying yk😃

🎶such a pretty face, on a pretty neck. she's driving me crazy, but I'm into it, but I'm into it, I'm kind of into it. it's getting crazy, I think I'm losing it, I think I'm losing it🎶💕

(Takes the mic**🎤)

Shout out to @thatgaywerewolf and Yo-peeps in the back–it's me y'all–this one goes for the preety girl in the front cheers for my beloved💕

(okay so I've also tried a hand at rapping the rap is written without a break and for the rhyme I used this proton term coz I didn't recall any word so I hope you get it)

_____

I see you're getting your tough on

And it's turning me on

Trust me I'm not a moron

But you're an icon

Who called me a proton

but baby how will I tell you I'm not positive if anything I'm far from it will you believe me if I said I'm a python with my guards on and I don't wanna hurt you baby coz you're my sweetcorn and If you let me I'll be your unicorn in the size of a Pokemon.

Is this a rom-com?

I'm sorry but that's how I see it

like a cheery on the tart

Just like a piece of the heart

With the dart on the spot💘

Which I won't pick apart

Nor would I discard

I'll keep it close to my heart even if I die-hard

I'll cherish it like an old teapot until I fall apart

Doesn't that sounds like a great movie plot?

I'll make you a card in the shape of a heart coz you're my jackpot,

And I'll give you my heart like the abstract piece of an art

We can paint it from the start or we could do it in the park

We don't have to be on the clock

And I'll protect you from the mob and mock them till they rot

We'll stay there till gets dark

Until the spark from the star

I'll play you the harp from the shard of the glass just like the angel in the dark

Or will it be Mr. Stark?

______

🤣🤣

I don't know that's all the words that rhymes idk why i put mr.stark it was the only word rhyming and I'm laughing again why would you let me begin it happens just like a chain and I hope it rains you know Dean has a mark of cain if I keep going I'm gonna faint coz I don't have a brain

(mic drop 🎤)

Thank you people. Oh! please don't chant my name like that. I don't take any questions but since you guys wanna know Due to pandemic I won't be doing anymore tours for my new album but who knows maybe in future I'll do it. Keep screaming people 😂😂 (I'll come over the edge of the stage and I'll bend down to kiss you and then I'll tell you to meet me backstage with a wink and crowd will notice it and go crazy)

_____

Oh! I saw that babe isn't it lovely. We're so cute that someone for like real person finds us cute😍

And idk no one has said it before irl life I just worry a lot about the bad things that may happen you know when I have faith that things will go good that time something exactly opposite happens so idk I always weight the bad side more so I'm prepared for it mentally and when it happens I can yell, "I knew it!" (I can imagine that God of eary season Sam hugging that person saying 'too precious for this world' I'm gonna cry now 😭😭)

Oh! God! You are so easy to be with. I can take care you come here I wanna wrap you up in a blanket and keep you safe in arms💕 (Does that mean you're adopting me? Will you come to all my recitals and visit me in college? Don't throw out my emo music when I'm away coz it's not a phase mom it's who I am😅😅)

I'll look forward to our movie nights and I wanna jump around the house like crazy and dance with you all night long (And I just love this song)

🎶And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed you put me on and said I was your favorite🎶

for lack of a better word made me cry . i don’t usually read cas lore stuff cause writers can try to get like , super fancy with it , but this story accurately described aches of like , existing that most people don’t give thought to because that’s just Part of existing . but for someone who’s never existed like that ,,, of course it needs to be discussed . unzipped me .

i’m so happy you enjoyed it! it’s one of my favorite fics, and one of the best cas character studies out there (other than teaching poetry to fish). I agree that it really captures the... mundanity of being human and just how many things that cas has to adjust to when he falls. I feel like a lot of people gloss over that when they write cas falling and don’t think to discuss how much of an adjustment it truly would be for him. I love the general format too, where each chapter explores a different word and feeling. Overall, 111111/10 fic I’m happy to have introduced you to it!!! 

pantheon_of_discord simply doesn’t miss- they’re one of my favorite authors. they wrote two of my other all time favorites: Dean (and Cas’) Top 13 Zepp Traxx (post-canon, dean and cas hunting together. soft and plotty. excellent content, one of the first fics I read when I got back into fandom!) and Crazy Diamonds (an excellent time travel fic! one specific part made me feel so insane but I don’t want to spoil it). I also really enjoyed Heroes for Ghosts by them, 12x08 divergent where Cas is planning a rescue of sam and dean. Go check out their other work too :)
