Eres un regalo de Dios

There is not anything 

That my hands are made weak 

When I have the fortitude 

Of a King 

Jesus Christ, our Lord 

And a sweet angel 

For whom I adore 

The redolence of salt and light 

Pay no mind to the palaver 

And the judgment of those 

Who carry stones 

With cracks in their windows 

You are full of grace 

A gift from Above 

You are everything 

My heart smiles from a rainbow 

And eyes of Biscayne Bay 

Glittering every seascape and air 🫶🏽🌺🫶🏽🌺🫶🏽🌺🫶🏽🌺🫶🏽🌺🫶🏽🌺🫶🏽 Happy Birthday, Mister Raúl Esparza! :) You may or may not see this, but I pray that you do. Thank you for being an inspiration to me and many other souls out there who look up to you as a role model. Thank you for inspiring us to believe that we can be who we are meant to be if we choose to believe in our dreams. I am never giving up on the life I have been blessed with. You help keep me going. Someday, I pray to meet you. You deserve the love, the hugs, and the gratitude. May all of your hopes and dreams continue to come true.

A while back (before I was on Tumblr), there was a post about Aziraphale and Crowley watching musicals and it said that most of the shows they watched were Sondheim, but they enjoyed Hamilton. Instead of thinking "Aw that's cute that they watched Hamilton," my musical theatre brain tried to deduce which Sondheim musical would be THEIR musical.

My proposal is that the musical in question is Company (but secretly).

I know I could easily say the other big titles like Into the Woods or Sweeney Todd, but Company just makes too much sense to me.

For those who are not familiar with the musical, Company is a concept musical (A musical without a linear plot but has an overall theme) about a single man named Bobby who, on his 35th birthday, is essentially having a hard time understanding marriage and relationships. Throughout the show, he interacts with all of his married friends and past relationships to answer, "What's the point of being with someone when you could be alone?"

For Bobby, each couple acts as an aspect on marriage and relationships:

- Bad Habits and Activities you may or may not do together (Sarah and Harry)

- Divorce, but still love each other (Peter and Susan)

- Knowing you and your partner's limits (Jenny and David)

- Being scared about marrying and understanding why you would want to marry (Amy and Paul)

- Being contempt can be enough and the idea of caring for someone else (Joanne and Larry)

Aziraphale and Crowley can easily see their own characteristics in Bobby and his friends while watching it for the first time. Sarah is a foodie while Harry enjoys his liquor; Peter and Susan aren't together but they are; Jenny is willing to go out of her way for David and he will actively put her first; Paul drives Amy to the brink of insanity and Amy pushes his affection away, yet they love each other like crazy; and Joanne is jaded but Larry balances her out by being over caring.

The Ineffable Husbands get to question 'why' alongside Bobby and feel that same experience of thinking you understand but realizing you may have not been right. That there is more to understanding what a relationship is.

Even though the music is wonderful, two songs will resonate with them the most, 'Sorry-Grateful' and 'Being Alive'.

'Sorry-Grateful' brings out the contradictions a spouse may feel in a relationship. It's a response to one of Bobby's questions, "Are you ever sorry that you got married?" The idea that you are in a constant barrage of enjoying or regretting your relationship just melds with the angel and demon. We're enemies, we're friends, we're on opposite sides, we're on our side.

'Being Alive' is the conclusion of all that was learned from Bobby. The understanding of why some may marry or be in a relationship is cultivated in this one song. Each little supposed annoyance that is sung adds up into a consciousness of feeling like a real person, alive and happy. It's knowing someone is there for you and knowing you are there for them.

The way Aziraphale and Crowley are there for each other...well them pre-S2E6.

I will say, I don't think they openly admit that Company was their favorite. Aziraphale may say West Side Story since it's based on Romeo and Juliet, and Crowley may say A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum (long name I know) on the comedy alone. However, this musical would be the one they watch on multiple occasions together for reasons they don't want to say, and they don't need to.

TLDR; Company has to be Aziraphale and Crowley's Sondheim Musical. Someone please make an edit of them with Being Alive (Raúl Esparza version). I don't have the talent for that. PLEAAASE!

hey, isn’t that CASTILLO AARGÓN, who looks a little like RAÚL ESPARZA? i hear HE is a FORTY-NINE year old CIS MALE who works as a DEFENSE LAWYER FOR THE TOWN OF ASPEN CREEK who has been in town for THIRTY-TWO YEARS. they AREN’T a member of one of aspen creek’s founding families. you can usually find them at MAPLE GROVE or LA BELLA VITA. if you ask me, they remind me a lot of THE SMELL OF OLD, LEATHER BOUND BOOKS AND TOP SHELF REDS, IMPECCABLY TAILORED SUITS WITH MATCHING POCKET SQUARE, LUNCH MEETINGS WITH CASE PAPERS STREWN ACROSS THE SILVERWARE, CIGAR SMOKE SPLASHED AGAINST A NIGHT SKY. just keep an eye on them & see if their true colors shine through

Full Name: Castillo Vincente Aargón Nickname(s): Cas, Tio, Señor Abogado (parents & siblings only) Age: 49 Birthday: October 30th, 1974 Astrological Sign: Scorpio Place of Birth: Santa Clara, Cuba Parents: Camilo & Claudia Aargón (77 & 74) Siblings: Camilo Aargón Jr. (51), Adamina Aargón-Webb (45), and Arianna Moreno (45) *Children: oldest child ((30-33) wanted connection), second oldest child ((22-23) wanted connection), youngest child ((21-22) wanted connection) *Relationships: First Love (FC & Name TBD), The One Who Made Him Realize He Was Bi (FC & Name TBD), Iris Jane Aargón (NPC depicted by Lily Rabe) - late wifePets: Guagua (cuban slang word for "bus") - 2-year-old Bernese Mountain DogScars: One on his stomach from a childhood appendectomy, Leg scars from a car accident Tattoos: N/A Other Physical Distinctions: A small dimple on his chin Sexual/Romantic Orientation & Gender: Bisexual and Biromantic ;; Cis Male Occupation: Defense Attorney for the Town of Aspen Creek *subject to change as roles are taken

bullet points

• tw: death, grief, mentions of prejudice, miscarriage of justice, drug mention, past mention of internalized homophobia, car accident, broken bones mention•

○ wednesday, october 30th, 1974 in santa clara, cuba: a couple welcomed their second son into a bed of uncertainty. castillo aargón only spent a few months in his birthplace before his family escaped the castro regime and settled in the adirondacks of new york.

○ unfortunately, like many immigrant families, castillo's family came to the states with hardly anything and had to work themselves up from zero. his father found work in agriculture while his mother began a business with her impeccable sewing skills. from a young age, all of the aargón children (two more had come five years after their move) were pressured to study hard as their parents wanted nothing more than them to never know the struggles of not knowing if they could afford to live.

○ though the struggles of poverty were always prominent in his childhood, cas has nothing but happy memories of those years. he could never thank his parents enough for shielding his and his sibling's young minds from the stresses they went through after their lights went off at night. it's something he's tried to keep in his own journey of fatherhood.

○ in the summer of '89, the aargóns moved to aspen creek, north carolina when his father was offered an amazing opportunity to become the overseer of a prominent family's farmland. it was more money than any of them had ever seen or could even dream about, and camilo knew he would have been a fool not to take it. cas took to the move pretty well, even if he had the usual confusion of pronouncing his name or sticking up for his mother when her english wasn't to someone's standards.

○ speaking of 'sticking up for': younger cas was a bit of a rougher character. he was scrappy, unserious, always willing to cause trouble, and ready with a slick pick-up line whenever a pretty girl crossed his path. teachers never minded his fooling around because he was an amazing student (going on to become valedictorian when he graduated) still, he was absolutely told off once or twice a month for being disruptive.

○ cas was voted 'biggest flirt' for his senior superlative.

○*part of a wanted connection/plot* when he was a sophomore in high school, cas fell for a pretty freshman. she was from old money, a challenge for the young boy. however, they were soon in a 'forbidden' puppy love by the end of the school year. her parents weren't too keen on their daughter dating a boy prone to getting into brawls and who snuck into underground clubs underage. it didn't matter he was set to graduate college early due to him taking undergraduate classes in high school. his rough edges were too much for the family. but that didn't stop them. it never does. when cas was (17-20), his girlfriend found out she was pregnant. cas did what many young boys do in that situation: freak the hell out. he was a selfish kid and was only thinking about himself and his wants, so he withdrew from both the relationship with his first love and the relationship with his child.

○ at seventeen, cas' brother cam was falsely accused of selling narcotics when he and a friend were pulled over (the friend's jacket being left in the car and his stash falling out onto the floor). it was months of hell for the aargóns but their one bright light was cam's defense attorney. he fought endlessly to uncover the truth. in the end, cam was acquitted of all charges and cas was left inspired for the rest of his life: he wanted to help the countless people who were just like cam and needed just that one person who believed in them.

○ *part of a wanted connection/plot* in undergrad, cas had a very close male friend. very close. he was the reason cas realized he was, in fact, bi and didn't just think guys were objectively attractive. worrying that any future employers would find out, he bowed out of the platonic and romantic relationship. he wonders what happened to him all these years later.

○ when he met iris during his first year of grad school, he knew she was the one who was going to make him settle down. he fell in a love he couldn't describe with words. she was perfect. they were engaged within a year of dating and she fell pregnant months after. they welcomed their son five months after marriage and their daughter a year later: only mere weeks after he became a partner at his firm.

○ life was seemingly picture-perfect for the new sect of the aargóns for years. yes, cas' relationship with his first child had become non-existent but otherwise, he got everything he wanted.

○ his son came out to him as trans when he hit his teen years. cas couldn't have been more proud of him. he only had one request: to be able to have a say in the name of his son since he wanted his real name to have more meaning than his deadname.

○ two years ago, during a terrible thunderstorm, cas was at a firm party where a little bit of 'old cas' came out. he got very intoxicated and ended up needing a ride home. so, a very tired iris’ picked his happy ass up (gave him a bit of a verbal lashing) and started driving back home. in a split second, she lost control of the car and ended up spinning out. the car slid for an eighth of a mile before slamming into a tree. he walked away with two shattered shinbones yet his wife, the wife he adored and loved more than he ever knew was possible, didn't survive.

○ ever since her casket closed, cas has thrown himself into his work. he barely speaks iris’ name, is no longer the good father to his two youngest, and has lost that cas spark. he's trying to find some light at the end of the tunnel, but he may have made too comfortable of a home in the dark corners of grief.

wanted connections / plots

○ the first love ;; see above!

○ his discovery ;; see above!

○ his in-laws ;; these were members of iris' family. mother, father, siblings, cousins, ect. since her passing, cas can barely look in their faces. maybe they feel pity on him? maybe they want him to see that he has children who need him? time will only tell if these relationships can ever be mended

○ his kids ;; i will be sending a wanted connection request for all three of his kids so please be on the lookout for those! i'd love to play their dynamic!

○ a new beginning? ;; is two years too soon to be thinking about love? cas doesn't know, but there might be something between these two. it could be rocky, it could end up being the worst decision he's ever made, but it could also blossom into something beautiful. do they take the plunge?

○ you knew me in a different lifetime ;; aspen creek high school classes of '88-'92 anyone? they knew goofy cas. unserious cas. horribly flirty cas. will they even recognize him now?

Chapter 330: Sex on the Brain Part 2

Summary:

Renee's Girls' Night In may have gotten out of control. Bad! Bad ladies! IAB's Tucker makes an appearance to question Huang about shooting and killing (which George didn't know about yet) Liam Conor's son! Then the dreaded Cynthia-George discussion takes place. Judge Barth grants a two week continuance not in light of three breathing murder victims being recovered (Nick's family :), Alex being stabbed, or because nearly all the prosecutors, their witnesses, and the defense attorney having been dosed, but because she doesn't want to see a caffeine-deprived or detoxing DA in her courtroom!

Notes:

Note: On the show, Tucker was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor and then took his own life. I didn't like Tucker that much on the show, but what I did like was how he went after Stabler all the time (and rightfully so). Now Tucker is getting a second chance at life thanks to one of my original characters, Dr. Taylor. Also, like I did with Stabler, Tucker is getting a personality revamp (outcome of his near death experience). Note 2: Happy belated birthday to Raúl Esparza (53) and BD Wong (63) both born on October 24.

we have 3 new wanted connections!

[CASTILLO AARGÓN ([RAÚL ESPARZA)] is looking for their [OLDEST CHILD FROM A HIGH SCHOOL RELATIONSHIP]

[CASTILLO AARGÓN (RAÚL ESPARZA)] is looking for their [DAUGHTER]

[CASTILLO AARGÓN ([RAÚL ESPARZA)] is looking for their [SON]

[CASTILLO AARGÓN ([RAÚL ESPARZA)] is looking for their [OLDEST CHILD FROM A HIGH SCHOOL RELATIONSHIP]. They are [30-33], and look an awful lot like [ANY CUBAN OR HALF CUBAN FC]. Muns [DO NOT] have to contact mun before applying.

these two are a classic case of ‘strained, absent, workaholic father relationship’ syndrome. cas was quite young when your muse came along; a consequence of young love. and cas acted quite childish to the new responsibility. he has never denied your muse or pretended as if they didn’t exist, but he was a part-time dad at the best of times and a quarter-time dad the majority of the time. to him, he just had to get his law degree, no matter if that meant his child hardly saw him. he’d show up to maybe one curricular activity, a birthday, then the end of the year holidays every year. it didn’t help that he met and ended up getting engaged to someone else while he was finishing up the law degree he neglected you for. it was all in the name of providing a better life for your muse. at least that’s what he told himself. but by the time he thought he had all his ducks in a row (and now half-siblings for you to bond with) your muse was well into their pre-teen years and wanted nothing to do with their 'barely dad’. even as your muse continued to give him the cold shoulder, cas still would reach out every once in a while and send them a good sum of money every christmas and birthday. but it wasn’t enough to heal the wounds your muse received from his absence, was it? cas was so wrapped up in providing a stable life for them (or as stable as he could provide being barely on the precipice of young adulthood when your most formative years took place) that he forgot the emotional connection altogether. hopefully, their mother supplemented for his lack of emotional intelligence. the two don’t stay in touch anymore, especially after your muses iced out of everything cas. but two years ago, their birthday came and went and there was no text. no letter. nothing from him. your muse must have heard right? aspen creek is only so big. does your muse pity their loss? do they feel numb, unable to put aside their hurt to sympathize with the cause of that hurt? or could this hurt, even after all these years, spell the start of a healed relationship? maybe he could show you how much he has truly cared for you all these years. but who knows? the past is still heavy between these two.

[CASTILLO AARGÓN (RAÚL ESPARZA)] is looking for their [DAUGHTER]. They are [22-23], and look an awful lot like [BEBE WOOD (OR ANY ½ CUBAN, ½ WHITE FEMALE FC)]. Muns [DO NOT] have to contact mun before applying.

Additional information: 

though your muse’s arrival was sooner than cas expected, the aargón family was more than happy to welcome another child into their lives. your muse has felt the least of cas’ past strife. in fact, she was only five months old when he passed his bar exam. sure, her dad was still a workaholic, but she’d never know an absent father like her older sibling did. she would grow up knowing even less of the details as by the time she came along, the ghosting had already begun. your muses’ life was pretty normal at the house on maple grove. cas and iris were loving parents who worked hard but always made time for her and her brother. however, your muse absolutely had more quality time with her mom due to the nature of cas’ work. however, he is absolutely a sucker for your muse’s younger child charms. she could probably get him to try to fly her to the moon if that’s what she asked of him. well, at least she could. ever since her mom’s passing two years ago, your muse hasn’t seen much of her dad. he has poured himself into his work, shutting out every family member from his life. he has removed all the photos of iris and won’t even speak her name. what effect will this have on your muse’s young adult years? will their relationship survive?

[CASTILLO AARGÓN ([RAÚL ESPARZA)] is looking for their [SON]. They are [23-24], and look an awful lot like [JORDAN GONZALEZ (NO ALTS DUE TO CHARACTER & JORDAN BEING CUBAN + TRANS)]. Muns [DO NOT] have to contact mun before applying.

cas was terrified when his then-fiancee announced she was pregnant. it was almost a sick flashback to the situation with his first child. but he wasn’t a young kid anymore and that safety net of a good job he worked so hard for was almost below his feet. so, he sucked it up, got married and your muse was soon born to the happy couple. his younger sister would follow only 1-2 year(s) later, creating this perfect little family living in their house on maple grove. his dad was still a workaholic, but he’d never know an absence of cas like his older sibling did. he would grow up knowing of them but never any of the gory details. your muses’ life was pretty normal from then on. cas and iris were loving parents who worked hard but always made time for him and his sister. however, your muse absolutely had more quality time with his mom. cas worked crazy hours and every case consumed him, but hopefully, your muse can remember those late nights after being woken up by a nightmare, running down to his study, and cuddling with his dad by the fire. when your muse came out to him as trans, cas simply grabbed his face, kissed him on the forehead, and told him ‘i love you son’. he also insisted on helping your muse rename himself to his true name, since he wanted that name to mean more than his old deadname. as he got older, cas told your muse of his own struggle with his identity and coming to terms with the fact he was bisexual. though cas would never admit it, your muse and his relationship was closer than either of his other children. however, after the accident that took your muse’s mom, cas has changed. he has completely gone into work mode. has your muse even spoken to him lately? also, he has removed all the photos of iris and won’t even speak her name. has your muse come back from college to take care of him since he has only gotten worse these past two years? maybe he never left but can’t bring himself to continue trying to speak to a brick wall. does your muse miss hearing cas call him 'mi hijo’? let’s see where these two end up.

[castillo-aargon]

[cisman and he/him] Welcome to Aurora Bay, [CASTILLO AARGÓN]! I couldn’t help but notice you look an awful lot like [RAÚL ESPARZA]. You must be the [FORTY-NINE] year old [DISTRICT ATTORNEY]. Word is you’re [DILIGENT] but can also be a bit [CANTANKEROUS] and your favorite song is [UNDER PRESSURE BY QUEEN FT. DAVID BOWIE]. I also heard you’ll be staying in [AURORA BAY DRIVE]. I’m sure you’ll love it!
