no but really it's funny sam thinks dean is john 2.0 when s1 dean is just. content to take on random cases and help save some people and is trying to do some good w/ the hand he's been dealt and isn't all that interested in his father's revenge quest and up until then has always had to play the mediator and swallow down his own feelings and anger. while sam's the one who quickly becomes obsessed w/ revenge the minute he loses jess and finding the thing that killed her and is quick to anger. "you're more like him than i'll ever be" "i'll take that as a compliment" "you can take that however you like" etc etc
#i know i'm not saying anything new and my dean understanders all know dean is mary's mirror and sam is john's but !!!!#it's so so loud in the early seasons. soooo loud !!!#and i think sam insists dean must be more like john must be just like john to convince himself that he's not like him#he looks at dean and thinks 'well i'm nothing like dean. dean's [lists 2 dimensional dean traits he thinks make up all of dean]#'and i'm nothing like that so therefore i'm not like dad' but like. all those dean traits are fake or surface level or overcompensating#everything sam thinks dean is is just a too big coat dean puts on to conceal everything real abt himself#underneath the coat he's mary. and john doesn't like that one bit so dean learned to hide it#anyways i'm rambling and losing threads but bottom line. sam is so much closer to john.#you know when you're standing too up close to something you can't see it properly? yea that's sam as john's mirror#his nose is pressed against the mirror he can't see that he's literally john's reflection.#family dynamics#siblings siblings#sam studies#dean studies#vic.txt

The Pan-Dimensional Frisbee - pt 2.
26. “Captain England and the Winter Assassin”
27.

Dean - Sparrow - Falcon Luna - Doctor Lovegood - Doctor Strange Theo - Eagle Eye - Hawkeye Neville - Micro-Man - Ant-Man Pansy - Red Widow - Black Widow
28. “I don’t think I can do Shawarma again,” Ron said. “He always wants Shawarma.”
29. Teddy grimaced before he spoke again. “My parents are dead too,” Teddy said quickly, glancing away from Draco and back to Harry. “Parker… that’s our last name, not er— Lupin. My dad… he was William and my mum’s name was Ottilie—” (another self-indulgent self reference lmao... these are the names of the parents of the OC from my main fic)
30. Savannah sighed, rolled her eyes, and turned around, releasing Harry’s hand so she could take one of the cases with her (this is an insane reference I put in lmao bc this is a character I planned out for a zombie apocalypse drarry au story I have.... so it's a reference to something that is still only an idea / outline i have)
31. The cold of the AC against Harry’s wet skin felt like a shock to the system, but truthfully, Harry realised that he was just glad he hadn’t made it snow
32. "How many times— I didn’t do it on purpose ,” Harry sighed, and Draco touched his wand to the PDF.
33. though it did feel as though several membranes had broken around them, as they propelled through that strange blur of nothing and everything, all at once.
34. "Suppose nothing more than an average Tuesday for you,” Harry smirked.
35. (after I posted this i immediately realized one I missed) --- (ch. 3) wooden crossbow off his back, and looking into the dark hills beyond, apparently done discussing things.
36. “But I felt his fever, Harry— it was a bite from a walker; you know as well as I do what that means… there’s no coming back, and I’m sorry , but—”
37. The boy’s eyes went big. “I’ve… I’ve never heard you curse before, Cap.”
38. “Sure you don’t want to leave this to the big guys?” asked Blaise
39. “I’ve told you before, Cap,” said Ron. “The running… takes a lot of protein." (reference to The Boys: Due to moving at supersonic speeds, A-Train needs to consume a high number of calories in order to have enough energy to perform such feats. While it is stated that A-Train needs 3,000 calories an hour)
40. The rhyming universe
41. “D’you think… if we die in the multiverse, then we die in real life?”
And that's all. Lmao. I think. I honestly was peppering in those references wherever I could, so I probably missed a few. But I hope you enjoyed this look into my brain hahaha
The Pan-Dimensional Frisbee - pt 1.
I decided to list out all the hidden references / easter eggs I included in this story bc I had too much fun with it and I wanted to make sure anyone who was curious could see hahaha. So, if you'd like a deep dive into my pop-culture obsession... read below
Chapter One Title: "Across the Potterverse"
“We could be anywhere . We could die! Or worse, I could be fired,” Hermione said, fumbling with the grey frisbee now that she’d been shielded from the mud. “Do I need to say it again?” Ron demanded.
“there could be a universe out there that’s every bit the same as ours, except that shrimp don’t exist, or a universe where only shrimp exist—“
“What is he, then?” Ron asked. Hermione just frowned, focusing on the PDF again, and biting her lips to bite back the word. “Say it,” Ron said. “Out loud.” “Vampire,” Hermione said.
Hermione picked up a stack of papers, and read aloud, “Hogwarts Paper Company. We never let sleeping dragons lie.”
Where their fingers had once been, were now, what looked to be, wands . They were jointed where all the knuckles should have been, and ended in a familiar pointed tip. Wooden fingers, like a puppet’s.
Harry had never seen in the Hogwarts he knew. There were glass boxes erupting from turrets, like strange additional rooms and spaces. Instead of the gargoyles at the front, large whirring metal cameras turned on a constant swivel, and the grounds, instead of being empty and sprawling, were filled with strange looking obstacle courses that reminded Harry of an old muggle war movie he’d seen.
She placed the aluminium packet on the table, and a glass dome rolled over it. Only a second later, the dome rolled away, and a full sandwich, alongside a fresh looking salad, appeared where the aluminium had been.
"don’t think I’d marry Cho. I mean, she’s lovely and all, but, no."
"Are we all still going to Nox’s afterwards?” Draco asked. “You still owe me a glass of Prosecco.” (this is a reference to an author i absolutely adore, NoxNoir :) I wanted to put them in the story in a fun little way. @ghostofnoir)
Chapter 2: Once More, With Feeling
You are about to enter another dimension… existing beyond time and space, and directly parallel to the universe of our previous story, a perfect identical match, except for one significant difference:
"Scared, Potter?” Draco asked. “You wish.”
Because right outside, instead of the ordinary muggle street he was sure he’d find, Harry saw the surface of the moon. (so, I decided to use inspiration from the movie Zathura for this dimension, and this dimension is actually supposed to be like a parallel universe travellers' like "safe zone" lmao. So if Harry and Draco just stayed there, they would have been fine. And it's why the fridge was covered in magnets... they were magnets from parallel universes)
On close inspection, they looked to be the sort of souvenir magnets typically sold in airports. All of them sported the name of some city, places like Los Cabos, Boston, Tokyo, and Frankfurt. Alongside places with names such as The Republic of Gilead, and Panem, that Harry wasn’t sure were real, as far as he was aware. However, the most shocking one of all was surely the one that said Diagon Alley, in glittery silver lettering, which Harry found himself staring at for several seconds.
His hair, still that same platinum blond, was spiked up, in a way that reminded Harry of some singer whose name he couldn’t remember. (this is a double reference, lmao, because it's a reference to my main canon rewrite series where a character frequently compares Draco to the singer Billy Idol) (which is actually a reference to how Spike in Buffy gets compared to Billy Idol / Spike is a character whose redemption arc/enemies-to-lovers arc i find to have a lot in common w/ what I want for Draco)
“You know,” Harry said, steps slow, “I think we’re in London. And I think… I think that’s David Bowie—” (This is probably the most self-indulgent reference on the list lmao. Bc.... this universe is actually a universe from another fic I've written for another fandom lmao...)
“Two Blue Lagoons,” he said, the first name he landed on. ... "Well?” Harry asked as Draco grimaced. “How is it?” “Tastes like a hangover,” Draco said. (this is referencing a line from that fic--- "Eddie does get their next drinks. Blue shots called Blue Lagoons that taste full of sugar and the promise of a hangover.")
"Hey, hey, settle a bet for me, woudja?” the man asked, accent so American it almost hurt. “See my buddy over there,” he said, pointing with his thumb over his shoulder to some other man, who looked, from what Harry could guess, embarrassed, “he’s all outta wack because a few of your fellow countrymen ruffled his feathers, talking about werewolves in the moors. I told him they were just a bunch of hot air, but I think it’s still bugging him. So, I just thought I’d get a second opinion—-confirm that’s just something you say to mess with tourists, ain’t it?” the man said, finally finishing the sudden diatribe. (like I said, this is one of the main characters from that other fic of mine.... which is another doubled reference I'm so sorry lmao...) (because that fic was inspired by the opening of An American Werewolf in London... so this is the context)
“Besides,” Draco said, dropping his voice to a whisper that made Harry lean in to hear him, “there are pixies in the moors.”
“Pixies,” the man said, when his laughter finally subsided. “Ain’t that the name of a band?” (this is a reference to a line Richie says in my other fic: "Rumors? Ain’t that a Fleetwood Mac album?” Richie asks.)
"And then, to Harry’s horror, Hannah began to sing. "I’ve got a theory that it’s a demon… a dancing demon,” she sang, “ no something isn’t right there. ”
Chapter 3: Ron of the Dead
"You've... you've got red on you," Draco said, pointing to a swipe of red—blood, probably— on Harry's hand.
“Oh… name was Brian. Brian Dumbledore”
