#oh to be a mini music man đ

While I'm going through my metal revival, do you have any band recs? Favourite songs of the moment? đđđ
oH man... you know not what you ask. I rewrote this so many times trying to make something coherent đ© I'm just alskdfjdlgkf at all times. I don't know if you want a handy list or if you want me to infodump about music, so I'll try to be Normal about this and just do a list for now. I tend to listen almost exclusively to metalcore/hardcore adjacent music, so that's the tl;dr of this whole post. I like screamies and breakdowns that make me want to throw hands/drive my car through a brick wall.
First off: I love last.fm. You can see my all-time (aka 2020-2022...) listening habits here if stats are your thing. It's not as Snapchat-like as Spotify's Wrapped, but I can also get a mini "Wrapped" report every week so I think it's pretty cool.
If you've seen me mention music, you probably know I'm bonkers about Motionless in White, so I'll throw them out there as their own little paragraph. Goth/horror isn't my thing at all, but something about their music just does something to my brain that makes me end up in the top 0.005% of their listeners on Spotify last year đ It was really hard to narrow it down to two songs, but I'll suggest Devil's Night (synths! yeah boi) and Scoring the End of the World (feat. Mick Gordon!).
Bad Omens - Dethrone / Blood
ERRA - Sol Absentia / Eye of God
Beartooth - Below / Beaten in Lips / honourable mention to The Last Riff (instrumental!)
Stray From the Path - Goodnight Alt-Right / Chest Candy
I Prevail - There's Fear In Letting Go / FWYTYK
Fit for a King - End (The Other Side) / Reaching Out
Trivium - The Phalanx / Strife
Stick To Your Guns - Hush / No Way to Live
Norma Jean - 1994 / Penny Margs
Electric Callboy - We Got the Moves / Spaceman (feat. FiNCH)
Bleed From Within - I Am Damnation / Into Nothing
Make Them Suffer - Doomswitch / Contraband (feat. Courtney LaPlante)
Alpha Wolf - Akudama
Bury Tomorrow - Abandon Us
Every Time I Die - It Remembers / Planet Shit
Thornhill - The Hellfire Club / Nurture
Underoath - No Frame / I'm Pretty Sure I'm Out of Luck and Have No Friends
I also made this into a playlist on Spotify if you listen there! I also have a longer suggestions playlist here on Spotify if you're interested. It has a lot of the same stuff and more, if the first one tickles your fancy.
Friday was Bandcamp Friday over on, well, Bandcamp. This just means that Bandcamp waives their fees for artists for the day, so artists receive basically full sales. I don't listen on there as much as I should, but you can find me and my collection here. Here's some fun stuff I've found or been sent:
Transgressive - Seize the Means of Reproduction // trans thrash
INTERRA - In Your Hands // melodic death metal
orphantwin - Future Classic // melodic ??? metalcore? idk man. side project for two of the guys from Norma Jean
G.L.O.S.S. - DEMO // punk
Sharptooth - imperfect animal // hardcore
Employed to Serve - Conquering // metalcore
PUPIL SLICER - Mirrors // grindcore
Vein.fm - This World Is Going to Ruin You // mathcore
SION - self titled // metalcore, ex-Killswitch Engage vocalist
Khemmis - Deceiver // doom metal
#long post#oops!#I didn't add a lot of description for stuff but the post was soooo long and I didn't want to make it a wall of text#I can elaborate on some of this stuff in the comments if you want!#viper pls#music

đ« Overall: I am really happy that I waited to listen to Work and the rest of Golden Hour: Part 1 until after my Physics exam cause it truly felt like the 'reward' I was searching for. I've already started watching some of the content surrounding the comeback and I'm so happy I liked the EP because it's definitely something new and unlike what Ateez have been showing us these past few years. We got used to their high energy, high power bops and now they've given us a little nudge that hey we can do other genres too (as Atiny we knew this but others could potentially be surprised by the range our boys are capable of) and as a hip-hop lover of course I loved the vibe of our a-side ahhhh shfhsh GOTTA WORK
#ahhh it feels so good to have listened to it now and ive started like the promotions vids and everything#and ofc i started with kstarnextdoor you know the vibe already ahdhdh its always so funny#ateez#golden hour: part 1#turtle talks#im so proud of them đ

Wow, @lamentationsofalonelypotato you spoil me, friend!! This review of Part 1 absolutely made my day and put a huge smile on my face. đ„°
I really love again that you give so many wonderful little pieces of domestic life with Dean and I think that you did a very accurate depiction of him having a mini panic attack when he realizes how serious the relationship between him and the reader is getting.
Oh why thank you!! This series let me explore a lot of facets of their relationship, and this early on I wanted to emphasize the domestic aspect that Dean hasn't gotten since Lisa. Mixed into their hunter lifestyle, hopefully it would be a better fit for Dean and the reader here.
LOL his mini man panic attack was so fun to write. And Sam just being like, "A-huh, you done?" đ
Heâs acting like such a guy when it comes to the reader moving his stuff around and I am HERE for it lol. Men really do freak out when you move their stuff and when you try to leave your stuff at their place. And even though we all love Dean, he really is that dude. Also love the classic guy thing when they never understand how long it takes a woman to get ready. It's a lot of effort boys and it's worth the wait. đ
He really is! lmfao Men complain about women being "extra," but they can be so particular, especially about their stuff. We saw from Dean's room in the bunker that he likes a particular order to things, so I thought it would be fun to have that feminine energy in his life shake him up lol. And hell yeah it's worth the wait! đđ
đœ
Is it wrong that I imagine Dean looking around at all her bottles and products in the bathroom in absolute horror with the music from Psycho in the background? đ
LOL I can see it like an episode in my head!!
And heâs not used to having a stable girlfriend around him all the time, caring for him, genuinely invested in what heâs doing through the day, and that makes so much sense for him to be a little out of his comfort zone to have someone move in. I know that by saying this I am neglecting Lisa⊠but legit I want to forget about her oh my stars. Please make it go awayâŠđŹ
Exactlyyyyy. It's taking some adjustment time for both of them as Dean gets used to having a girlfriend in his space. I think with Lisa he had to try and fit himself into her life, her house, her things, while in this it's the other way around, so it's still "new" for him in a sense.
Haha I'm about to throw myself under the bus, but I shipped Dean x Lisa hardcore when I was first watching the show! It was always the hopeless romantic for me wanting better for Dean on the show, seeing him with a stable family life. I think the writers had to do her characterization a bit dirty in order to write her and Ben out of Dean's life. đ„Čđ„Č
The readerâs reaction to his subtle comments about where his stuff is was making me laugh. Sheâs so sassy and fun, and sheâs the perfect other half to Dean.
Ahaha thank you!! I so appreciate you for saying that. đ„° She's not without flaws, but I thought she could match Dean's energy and give it right back to him in a playful way. đ (Hairline kisses are so wholesome, aren't they?)
Also thank you so much for explaining what the food was because it all sounded amazing and I would not have known the first thing about any of it. đ
Oh of course! That's part of the "everyone is welcome here" with the cultural aspects. Plus I've had people tell me they want to go out and find some Cuban food to try, like you went out and found some cafecito! đ I love writing about food. lol
Goodness I don't think I'm ever going to have a normal reaction to Dean making the reader feel better when her thoughts begin to ride the self-deprecation train. It's so cute how much he cares for her and wants to make her feel better and lets her know that she belongs there with him. (AND THE EYEBROW KISS *swoon*) Also I teared up when she said the thing about having someone to cook for, because oh man, the feminine urge to bake and cook and make things for other people is so strong with me. đ
UGHH GIRL SAME. It defeats me every time fr. đźâđšđźâđš
As much as she wants to take care of her partner in Dean (and feed him and Sam), Dean's instinct is to take care of her right back in how she needs. It's why I wanted to pair him with a "giver" like him.
Oh yeah, I infused a bit of myself there with "the feminine urge to bake and cook and make things for other people." đ„°đđœ
I will also say that the lore/the way you incorporate actual hunts into your work is so seamless and you should be VERY proud of that. It is literally like watching an episode of Supernatural.
Omg thank you!! I try my best to make that aspect feel natural and do research when necessary--back into the show, in mythology, etc. đđ
I know that Dean didn't want to give Andy's mother false hope, but I probably would have done the exact thing the reader did. I would have made that promise to reassure Andy's mom. But at the same time I see Dean's argument about caring too much for the people around you. I think he probably gets that from understanding that there are a lot of things that can go wrong on a hunt and that at the end of the day you can't save everyone/you're not always in control of the situation even if you'd like to be.
Honestly yeah same, but I'm glad you could see Dean's side of the argument too! I think the most conflicty conflict is best when both sides have merit. Dean's experience backs up his points, but there's a more human touch that the reader is coming from.
The subtle The Walking Dead reference, very well done lol.
Ahaha thank you!! I stole that from 12x15 when Dean pulls out Lucille. đ€Ł
AND IT'S A CLIFFHANGER!!?đ± I can't be mad about that, I do them so often too when I write. I can't wait to read part 2 and hear the traditional "you should've listened to me!" đ„°
Cliffhangers work! I love a good cliffhanger honestly. It doesn't even bother me when I read them in other people's stories because it can be such a delicious narrative choice. đ
Thank you so much again, friend, for this lovely review!! I really hope you enjoy Part 2 whenever you get to it. It's spicy, in more ways than one. đ
Devour Me - Part 1
Pairing: Dean Winchester x Plus-Sized/Latina!ReaderÂ
Summary: When you and Dean start to press each otherâs buttons, both of your tempers ignite. To make up for it, you give him an impromptu salsa dancing lessonâŠone he didnât exactly ask for. (18+)
AN: This is a two-part sequel to âMidnight Espresso!â I would read that one first before you dive into this one. (Itâs fun, I promise!)
Word Count: 3,800 Tags/Warnings: Supernatural shenanigans, tiny bit of body insecurity, hurt/comfort, fluffy fluff, and a cliffhanger...
â Midnight Espresso Masterlist
Part 1: "A Takeover"
When Dean asked you to move in with him, he really didnât think it would come to this.
Clearing a nightstand for you, half of the dresser, a section of his closet. Those things are reasonable.Â
But this is a total takeover, he thinks, as he surveys the sheer amount of crap youâve brought into his room.
Mind you, despite this still being a bunker, the dĂ©cor is nice. You brought in sturdy, but stylish wicker baskets for his pile of cassettes (and your CDs) next to the TV, filing bins for the haphazard shuffle of papers on his desk, installed dark wood shelves on the wall for his various weapons and your collection of books.Â
But heâd had his music organizedânot alphabetically or chronologically, but by his own personal rankings of awesomeness. Now theyâre all shuffled together by band name.Â
Plus, he likes having his shotgun on the floor by the bed, within reach, not three feet above his head. And where the fuck is his collection ofâŠmagazines?
The point is, every time he looks for something, youâve put it in a different place. Not to mention the damn bathroom (donât get him started on all your shea butter lotions, makeup brushes, frilly-smelling soaps, and the army of hair products now taking up space in his cabinets and drawers).Â
Dean is sitting on the edge of the bed, trying to figure out where the hell his cassette of Zeppelin IV is, when you breeze into the room he now shares with you. Youâre dewy with sweat in a Guns & Roses shirt and some yoga pants you reserve for cleaning.Â
And thatâs another thing. Youâre more anal than Sam about having the bunker smelling like Pine Sol. However, as youâve expressed before (after nagging him to pick up his dirty, and occasionally bloody clothes from the floor), while you like a clean house, you are not in fact the maid.
âHey, baby. Can you fold these for me?â you request. âI need a shower.â
He raises a brow as you dump a new basket of fresh laundry onto the bed. It looks like you washed your clothes mixed in with his, which he actually doesnât mind. He fishes out one of your red, lacey thongs with a hint of a smile. He bought you these last week, and they already have a tear. (His fault.)
âBy the way, next time you move one of my things, mind leaving me a post-it note or something?â he dryly remarks. âItâs like a scavenger hunt in my own damn room.âÂ
You pop your head out of the bathroom, though he can tell by your bare shoulders that youâve already gotten undressed. Your mouth is quirked at the corner.Â
âItâs called organization,â you tease. âApparently a foreign concept to you.â
You disappear back into the bathroom, giving Dean the privacy he needs to grumble almost inaudibly to himself. But then he hears your voice behind the door. Â
âOh, by the way. Your vintage collection of smut is in the bottom of your nightstand,â you call out. âThat 1996 edition of Busty Asian Beauties is particularly classy.â
Dean hears the wryness in your tone, and his face actually heats up in embarrassment. He frowns at the bathroom door, his jaw tensing, but he takes a breath. Deciding to let it go with a roll of his shoulders, he puts on the TV to catch up on Dr. Sexy M.D. He also neglects the task you gave him, just for a little while.
When youâre still in the bathroom an hour later, Dean starts to get curious about what the hell youâre doing in there. The shower isnât even running anymore.
Thatâs when he hears the hairdryer go on.Â
He knows heâll never be able to concentrate on his show with all that noise. So with a sigh, he clicks off the TV and eyes the pile of laundry. You probably cleaned the whole freaking bunker this morning. Despite his annoyance, he figures folding your clothes along with his own is the least he can do.Â
Dean scoops up the pile back into the basket and takes it elsewhere.Â
He finds his brother at the kitchen table and joins him with his basket. Samâs gaze raises from his laptop to meet his brotherâs grumpy face. He watches in mild curiosity as Dean plops down across from him and dutifully begins folding one of your shirts.Â
âYou okay?â Sam hazards the question.Â
âFucking peachy,â Dean replies. âLooking for a new case?â
âYeah. Nothing yet.â Though Sam raises a brow when Dean all but tosses one of your girly sundresses on the table after itâs folded. (Itâs yellow, and it happens to be his favorite on you.)
âEverything all right?â Sam asks.Â
Dean glances up, finds his brotherâs knowing eyes, and doesnât have it in him to lie. He lets go of a breath, as well as one of his undershirts to rub at his forehead.Â
âSheâs nosey, Sam. Sheâs all up in my business.â
âYour girlfriend?â Sam clarifies, with raised brows. âOf six months.â
âYeah, that one,â Dean quips, with all due sarcasm. âEver since she moved in, sheâs been going through everything, moving my crap every which way, making it so I canât find a damn thing.â
Samâs mouth edges at a smile.Â
âIâm tellinâ you, Sam, sheâs damn near taken over,â Dean insists.Â
âYou done?â Sam teases. Dean just leans in, like heâs about to level his brother with a secret.Â
âMatter of fact, she locks herself in the bathroom for like, forever. I just heard the hairdryer go on, meaning another hour at least. What the fuck is she doing in there, getting ready for prom?â
Sam finally has to chuckle. âClearly itâs been a long time since youâve lived with a woman, Dean.âÂ
Dean scoffs. âRight.â
âAnd sheâs actually been a big help in cleaning up around here,â Sam says, with a growing smirk. âWhich is, quite literally, a refreshing change.â
Dean snorts at that.Â
âOf course, youâre happy,â he says. âA new damn dish rack turns you on.â
Sam shoots him a wan look. âThe question is, are you happy?â
That manages to take Dean by surprise. He hesitates to answerâŠ
But heâs saved when he hears someone approaching. He knows itâs you because he can smell the mix of your floral soap and coconutty shampoo; itâs a scent that often lingers on your pillow and has unconsciously infiltrated Deanâs nose.Â
His reply to Sam dies on his tongue when he sees you.
âHey,â you greet both men, all bright and smiley with your hair in wild curls down your back.Â
A lot of the time you keep your hair straight or loose and wavy, so itâs rare for Dean to see your natural look. Itâs a good one for you, he thinks. Along with those jean shorts hugging your curvy hips, and the V-neck top youâre wearing, which offers a nice peek of cleavage.Â
Your hand falls on his shoulder, with your thumb stroking his neck. You then brush that hand across his back as you pass by on your way to the kitchen. If possible, youâve become even more touchy since you two got together.
Dean holds fast to your hand, stopping you in your path.Â
âSo thatâs what you were working on in there,â he remarks. âThought I was gonna need to break out the fire extinguisher.âÂ
You grin in amusement and do a little twirl under his hand, shaking out your curls a little.
âYou like?â you ask. Dean tugs you back over. He reaches out and fingers at the soft ends of your hair.Â
âBeautiful,â he says.
âLooks real nice,â Sam adds.
âWhy, thank you.â Your smile is contagious, and Dean canât help reciprocating. You drop a hand on his shoulder again.
âI know youâre our resident Gordon Ramsay, but I kinda feel like cooking today,â you say. âIs Cas coming home anytime soon?â
Dean nods. âYeah, he called this morning. Probably dropping back in tonight.â
You nod. âGood! Iâll make plenty thenâŠoh, wait, he doesnât eat.â
âWhat did you have in mind?â Sam asks.Â
âWell, I know you guys havenât had much Cuban food, so I thought you might like to try some ropa vieja,â you reply. Samâs brows knit together.Â
âOld clothes?â he translates. His two years of high school Spanish can give him that much.
âYeah! But itâs basically shredded beef with onions, garlic, tomato sauce, and a bunch of other good stuff,â you explain. Then your eyes brighten. âOh! And I can make my grandmaâs famous black beans, white rice, some bread with crushed garlic and olive oilâŠâ
By the time you finish listing the things you plan on making, Dean is already salivating.Â
Later that evening, when Dean actually gets to sample said food, heâs eaten enough for three men in the span of forty-five minutes.
âJesus, man. Going for a record on indigestion?â Sam cautions him, despite his amusement.Â
Dean pointedly ignores his brother to look over at you. After he swallows another forkful of beef stew, he says, âNot for nothinâ, this is probably the second-best meal of my entire life.â
âOh, yeah?â You giggle. âWhatâs number one?â
âDiner called Slammies in Alabama. Best fucking pie on Earth,â he easily recalls. âDouble applewood bacon cheeseburger, chili cheese fries, brick oven pizza. Bar none.âÂ
Sam inclines his head, remembering the food coma he and Dean had that night. Theyâd hit the rock-hard pillows at the motel and slept like theyâd been on an all-night bender.Â
âBut this is like, right there,â Dean says to you, leveling his hand up by his head.Â
âWell, letâs see if this moves the needle,â you reply as you get up from your seat. You answer the question in his eyes. âForgot something, hold on.â
But before you can leave the table, Dean reaches over and takes your hand.Â
âThanks, sweetheart. For all of this. I mean it,â he says.Â
A soft, genuine smile grows across your face. You lean down and press a tender kiss below his hairline, stroking his cheek before you go.Â
Dean quirks a smile. Itâs taken him time to get used to how open you are with your affections, but he likes it. All of it. Every time you reach for him, touch him, brush against him, intentionally or not. He always has.
Though he has to resist embarrassment when he notices the way his brother is watching him. Sam raises a brow, smiling that irritating smile of his.Â
âOh, yeah. Youâre not happy at all,â he intones.
âNever said I wasnât,â Dean says defensively. But he perks up when you return. Maybe youâre bringing more garlic bread.Â
Instead, youâre holding a tin pan.
âWhatâcha got there?â he asks.
âDessert,â you announce. Itâs a Cuban flan: creamy, rich custard with a consistency smoother than cheesecake, and thicker than pudding. Â
You havenât even sat back down yet when Dean carves himself a generous slice. He moans when a large forkful melts in his mouth. You start to blush as you watch him with crossed arms and a hand over your smile. You donât know whether to be amused or flattered.
Sam watches his brother stuff his face with a subtle shake of his head.   Â
âYouâre enabling him,â he tells you. You shrug, but then you rest your hands on both Sam and Deanâs shoulders.Â
âNow I have someone to cook for,â you say. You have tears in your eyes, but you quickly blink and try to turn away. Frowning, Dean takes your hand.Â
âHey, where you going?â he says, and aims to pull you into his lap. You hesitate, knowing youâre not going to be able to squeeze between him and the table. Â
âItâs okay, these hips donât fit,â you chuckle wryly, with a sniffle. But Dean just backs his chair up from the table a bit to make room.Â
âWhatâre you talking about? You fit right here,â he says firmly, and he tugs you down. This is the one thing Dean has tried his damndest to break you out ofâthat self-deprecating streak of yours.Â
You finally accept being guided into his lap, where you indeed fit snugly across his thighs. His arm comes around the front to hold you close by your hip, while his other hand rests comfortingly on your back.
Looking up into his eyes, you draw enough courage to be honest.Â
âI was mostly raised by my grandma,â you begin to explain. Your father wasnât ready to be one, and so wasnât in the picture. Your mother died when you were in high school. So when your grandmother also passed away a few years agoâŠÂ
Well, youâve been alone for a while.
You sniff and wipe at your face, but your eyes close as Deanâs lips press above your brow. When you next open your eyes and cautiously look between the brothers, Samâs sympathy warms you.Â
âIf it isnât obvious, you have a home here,â he says. âWe can never replace what youâve lost, butâŠweâre your family too.â
You know that Dean feels the same way by the way he brushes the tears from your cheek, thumbing at your bottom lip.
"You're right where you need to be," he says, with a hand squeezing your hip. His sincerity is in his even tone, in the firmness in his eyes.
Youâre able to smile a bit.
âAhâŠIâm interrupting, arenât I?â
The three of you turn to the kitchen doorway, where Castiel stands awkwardly. He clearly senses emotional tension, but it breaks the moment you turn to him with a tearful laugh.Â
âHey, Cas. Have you ever eaten âold clothes?ââ you ask.Â
His puzzled expression is absolutely priceless. Â
When Sam finds a possible hunt in Hope, Indiana, Castiel agrees to go with you all. Itâs a small, corn-fed town in the middle of nowhere, and five people have gone missing over the course of a year.Â
The latest is a nine-year-old kid named Andy Campbell. That alone upsets you; if you have one weakness, itâs for kids.
âLocal farmers have been reporting dead cattle too, drained of blood,â Sam says from the passenger seat in the Impala. âIâm thinking vampires trying to keep a low profile.â
âSounds about right, if a bit sloppy,â Dean remarks. They are in the Midwest though. If this is a coven, or even a rogue vamp whoâs been here a while, maybe they got lazy. âSo what, police station first? Get any details they mightâve missed.â
âI want to talk to the kidâs mom,â you say. It earns Deanâs gaze at you in the rearview mirror. âWe can get the last time she saw him, where he went missing, anything she mightâve held back from the police.â
He nods and shares a glance with Sam. âIâll go with her. You and Cas scope out the station.â
The angel has gotten better at pretending to be a Fed, but not by much. Sam agrees, even though Dean sees in his face that heâd rather be taking his brother. Dean tempers a smile and keeps driving to the closest motel in this dusty town.Â
You don a sensible pantsuit to match Deanâs Fed suit, along with your badges: Agents Buckingham and Nicks.Â
When Andyâs mom, Rachel Campbell, opens the door of her modest home to you and Dean, he lets you take the lead. Youâre good at this part, connecting with the victims and getting them to talk. He sometimes worries about you thoughâthat your soft, sympathetic heart will get the best of you.Â
âHow long has Andy been missing?â you ask, accepting a cup of tea from the woman.Â
Rachel is around your age, maybe a few years older. She looks run down, a shell of a human as she looks at the carpet rather than at you or Dean. You canât know exactly how she feels, but you have a vivid imagination.Â
And from the various pictures of her and Andy on the wall, just the two of them, you deduce that sheâs a single mother. Just like your mom had been.
âAlmost four months,â she admits. âThe police station doesnât even return my calls anymore.â
That upsets you, but you keep a lid on your emotions to focus on the woman in front of you.Â
âAndyâs father, heâs not around?â Dean asks. Rachel shakes her head, confirming your suspicions.
âNo, we split up shortly after he was born,â she replies, her tone tired and resigned. âI was at work. I uh, I work at a doctorâs office. Andy was supposed to come home on the bus, like any other dayâŠbut he never did.â
She sucks in a shaky breath as the beginnings of tears make her eyes red and glassy.Â
âHis school couldnât tell me why he wasnât on the bus. But one of his friends said he was late getting out of class, so he mustâve tried to walk home. Even though he knew he could call me when that happensâŠanyway, somebody mustâve grabbed him.â
Rachel looks away as a tear streams down her cheek, followed by another. You feel your throat tighten with a sympathetic burn behind your eyes, but you keep it at bay long enough to set down your tea. You reach out and lay a hand on the womanâs hand. She meets your steady gaze.Â
âI promise, weâll find your son,â you tell her.
âWhat?â you ask Dean as the two of you leave the small house, walking back to the Impala in the driveway. You just know thereâs something up with him by the stoic look on his face. It isnât so stoic to you.Â
He waits until the two of you are in the car before he levels you with a raised brow.Â
âLook, I know you want to find this kid. I do too,â he says. âBut watch out about making promises you canât keep.â
You frown back at him. âWhatâs better, letting that poor woman have no hope at all?â
In his mind, Dean thinks itâs worse to give her false hope. But he sees how stubborn youâre getting, so he doesnât push it. The fact that you care about people like Rachel is part of what drew him to you in the first place, but thereâs a line, he thinks. A point where you can care too much.Â
When you two eventually meet up with Sam and Castiel, theyâve been able to confirm from the body of a recent Jane Doe, with a row of lethal bite marks on her wrist, that this is definitely a vamp case.Â
After narrowing down where each of the victims were taken, the four of you sketch out a perimeter of where the monsters could likely be hiding. Itâs Dean who finds the old barn on the verge of a corn field, about three miles away from the school where Andy was taken.Â
You all wait until high noon the next day to scope it out. Looking into the front windows is useless; all evidence points to an empty home.
The back of the barn is another story. Cracking the barn door open reveals a large storage area, where a nest of vampires are sleeping in their beds. Some are coupled off, but you note a few on single beds.
Then, your eyes narrow on the humans sleeping piled together in the cornerâthree women, a young man, and Andy Campbell on a twin-sized bed of his own. Â
Dean carefully closes the barn door, and the four of you regroup back to the Impala.
âItâs a bigger nest than we thought,â Sam says, though he keeps his voice quiet. Dean is already opening the trunk for his favorite machete.Â
âFirst, letâs get those humans out,â he says. You agree with a nod when he hands you a weapon. Â
Dean shoots you a wink. âThis oneâs Brenda.â
âWhat happened to Lucille?â you ask, taking the knife from him.
âThatâs the bat wrapped in barbed wire. Matter of fact, I should break her out.â
Dean reaches into the trunk and pulls out the blood-stained bat. He rubs the handle fondly.Â
âAhh, Dad loved this thing.ïżœïżœ
You sidle up next to him and glance over wryly. âYou want some alone time with your big stick, there?â
Dean flashes you a smirk, giving you a long once over in your form-fitting shirt and jeans. âWell, youâre certainly welcome to join me, sweetheart.âÂ
You snort in response, bumping into his side with your hip. Dean teasingly bounces one of your curls in your face. You smile and swat his hand away.
Sam subtly rolls his eyes, despite a small smile as he shares a look with Cas.
âAll right. Can we go, please?â Sam says in amusement. Castiel awkwardly straps on a machete to his belt. He doesnât believe heâll need it, but Sam and Dean are always prepared. He wants to be as well.Â
Youâre ready to go, but Dean holds you back by your shoulder. You look up at him curiously.
âHey, follow our lead on this one, okay?â he asks.Â
You sense that heâs hedging at something more specific with that request.Â
âWhat do you mean?â Â
âThe kid. I know you wanna beeline for him the second we get in there, but hold off,â Dean says. His gaze is serious. âHe could be turned.â
He got a good look inside, the same as you. The kid was lying on a bed while the other humans were chained up on the floor. Still, you shoot him an incredulous look.Â
âWhy would they turn a kid?â you ask. âThey have the others.â
âYeah, and they were chained up. Why not him?â Dean asks, imploring you to think logically. He shares a look with Sam, who silently agrees. You look between the brothers with pursed lips.Â
âMaybe they donât give a fuck, because theyâre cocky assholes,â you retort. And you walk past them to head back towards the barn.Â
The brothers and the angel share one last look, with Dean letting out a subtle breath before he follows you.
You creep back into the barn, as quiet as possible through the room of snoring vampires. The brothers and Castiel go to the sleepy women in the corner. They look dirty and malnourished, wearing threadbare clothing. Sam feels the pulse of the man prone on the floor, but heâs already dead.Â
When one of the girls wakes with a whimper, Dean holds his finger to his lips, warning them all wordlessly to be quiet. He looks over and doesnât find you next to him. He nearly curses out loud when he sees you heading for Andyâs bed across the room.Â
Meanwhile, you touch the little boyâs shoulder and shake him a little. He wakes with a small sound of reluctance, but you shush him gently.Â
âAndy?â You grasp his shoulders. He nods, though his blonde brows are furrowed with confusion.Â
âWhoâŠwho are you?â he asks. He rubs at his sleepy brown eyes.Â
âIâm here to help,â you reply in a whisper. âIâm going to get you back to your mom, okay?â
After a moment, he nods and lets you pick him up into your arms. You hazard looking over across the room, and you find Deanâs annoyed gaze. Despite the uncomfortable churning in your belly, you ignore him for now and head for the back door.
Youâre only able to take a few steps when you feel a hand wrap tightly in your hair and pull it away from your neck, just for rows of several razor-sharp teeth to sink into your neck.
AN: đŹ ...Sorry. If you don't know me by now, I love a cliffhanger. But how'd you like Dean getting used to sharing his space? (And having someone to occasionally put him on his toes.)
Part 2 will feature a good old fashioned "you should've listened to me" fight, some angst, some making up, some salsa dancing, and a healthy dose of smutty smut.
Next Time:
âI donât care what that legendary gut tells you,â you sass back. âIâm not a little girl, and youâre not my damn father!â
Dean raises incredulous brows at the way youâre shouting at him. He crosses his arms.Â
âWhatâs this, some kind of Latina temper?â he asks snidely.Â
You truly become incensed at that.Â

TXT / on a road trip with themâ€ïž
These are some reactions as to what it would be like to go on a road trip with each member! Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyâ€ïž
Warnings: jokingly mentions âdiedâ and âkill meâ
~
We are going to pretend youâre going on a 10 hour road trip to have a mini weekend vacation with your bf. And that they can all drive.
~
Soobin
Literally forgets to pack anything
âWhereâs your phone charger?â
âOh shit-â
Have to go buy two or three phone chargers just in case he loses one again
He has to pee like every hour so youâre constantly stopping at gas stations
But thatâs ok because then you also get candy and sweets
When youâre driving, heâs taking pics of you
When youâre not driving, he is holding your hand or your thigh
âSoobin stop looking at me youâre going to crashâ
Which then freaks you out so you make him switch with you lmao
Heâs gonna fall asleep like halfway there so just turn on ur tunes lol
Yeonjun
He doesnât want you to drive because he is a gentleman and will always drive for you
But heâs gonna complain about it the whole time lmfao
I feel like he has hella road rage and honestly I donât blame him bc people are rude
Every time he yells like âfuck youâ to someone on the road, he turns to you and says âIâm sorry I shouldnât yellâ but continues to do it ???
Yâall gonna be having so much fun singing together in the car though
Heâs gonna harmonize to whatever song is on
With his beautiful voice đ©
You feed him while heâs driving lol
Just pop some chips in his mouth
And he blows you air kisses as a thank you đ©đ©
Dances a little while driving and almost kills you
Beomgyu
Heâs gonna put on a romantic playlist bc he wants to have a good romantic time with his baby
However, itâs not very romantic when heâs rolling the windows down and yelling at every bird he sees
âI will avenge thee brethren!â
âBeomgyu please stop itâs just a bird-â
âNonsense foolish mortalâ
You guys get honked at a lot
Also gonna stop for a lot of snacks
Sometimes he will wait in the car if you just have to use the bathroom. And will pretend you took years
âY/N you took so long I almost diedâ
You two will probably get lost if heâs in charge of the map/gps
But no matter where you end up, itâs always a blast with Beomgyu <3
Taehyun
This man got the whole trip planned out
He knows exactly what youâre gonna do each day and how long itâs gonna take and etc
He drives bc he doesnât want you to lift a finger đ
Youâll probably stop for food somewhere at a restaurant
And then youâll have to take a nap in the backseat of the car bc you ate too much
I can see you two putting on somewhat aggressive music and just screaming your hearts out đ
He constantly asks you if youâre cold or hot or uncomfortable
Youâd also have a lot of deep conversations that bring you closer to each other:,)
Heâs just a cutie what can I say
You: âcan we pull over and take a picture with that landmark?â
Him: âno.â But does it anyway lol
HueningKai
âY/N youâre so pretty when youâre drivingâ
As if you didnât wake up hella early in the morning to drive for 10 hours still in your pajamas
Always forget to put his seatbelt on so you have to nag at him every time
Holds your hand the entire time
When you stop at a gas station, he goes inside and tries to look for a little keychain or souvenirs with your name on it, but gets sad if he canât find it đ„ș
Heâs probably gonna sleep off and on
So when heâs sleeping all is well and quiet
When heâs awake, you might be fighting about whoâs conspiracy theory is better about the city youâre in? Maybe fighting about where to eat? Who knows
Loves to just look out the window and look at all the scenery and cities
Will be trying to show you things on his phone forgetting youâre driving lmao
âKai, babyâŠ.. Iâm driving I canât lookâ
âOh yeahâ

Hello there my lovely Jade! â€ïž Before starting, congrats on 200 followers once again, I canât express enough how much you deserve itđ„șđ
Ahem~ For the lovely event, Iâd like to request Kunikida!
As the fourth touch, first time hand kiss from him maybe? đł Maybe this is too much projecting but I feel like heâd enjoy giving those in a tender and professional manner, being the gentleman he is. đ
My personality (even though youâre probably familiar by all this by nowđ€): I sometimes seem distant from the outside but Iâm actually very kind đđ I donât talk much, I usually observe, but when Iâm really passionate with something and that topic is brought up, I canât stop rambling. (In my case, itâs classical music, literature and scienceđ€) Iâm so serious when it comes to studies/work, I canât stand irresponsibility, but outside of that, my kind of chaotic/feral side could come out for just a few seconds so beware. đ
Date places: Art/history museums, library or at night, anywhere that would allow us to stargazeđ
Iâm definitely an introvert.
Feelings about physical touch: Iâm generally very hesitant with physical touch, I donât like people touching me, but Iâm usually more OK with it if the person is so beloved to me and if I trust them very much <3
Flirt: Oh I donât flirt at all. Like, at all. Iâm really reserved when it comes to those things haha. But Iâm not opposed to being flirted with ONLY IF I feel things for that person đđ
Crush: If I ever had a crush on someone, it would probably go to grave with me if they donât take the first step. I hide it as if my life depends on it.
I think thatâs itđłâ€ïž Thank you so much for this lovely event, I hope youâre having a wonderful day and not forgetting to drink your water!! mwahâš
First Touches with Doppo Kunikida (#2)
A/N: Hiii my dear Req!! Thank you again for your lovely congratulations (âșŁï»âșŁ), I appreciate them very much. Stop making me blush already, Iâm feeling all giddy! (âÏâ*) So, Kunikida, huh? What a ground-breaking surprise, I wouldâve expected you to ask for Kaji đ- no just kidding, Iâm sorry đđ . One Kunikida coming right up!!!! I hope this puts a smile on your face <3.
Pairings: Kunikida x fem!reader
Genre: tooth-rotting fluff
Warnings: none
200 followers mini event
Letâs say you are a member of the Armed Detective AgencyâŠ
In general, you and Kunikida would start off as friends that click right away. Due to your diligence and generally reserved personality, you would get along really well in a workplace scenario, making you the workaholic power couple of the Armed Detective Agency. But also outside of work, you know that you can rely on each other when need be. Furthermore, you understand each otherâs passionate spirit about your special interests and donât mind one rambling to the other, which makes you good friends as well.
The first time you touched hands wouldnât have been special at all if it wasnât for his reaction. You had been with the Agency for a few weeks now and had found the members to be a quite eccentric bunch, each with their own quirks. To your surprise, you had nevertheless felt quite accepted and taken in right away, which you could contribute in large parts to the Agency member you secretly felt most comfortable with: Doppo Kunikida, the young, upright man with a firm and serious attitude that everyone seemed to respect and trust expect maybe Dazai, but you preferred not to mind him too much. You had felt drawn to him right away â not in a romantic or sexual manner, but rather because you felt him to be one of the few people you felt comfortable around to a certain degree right from the start.
And you had not been disappointed. While others seemed to moan over his strict mannerisms, you felt them to be a guidance for him and everyone that could be relied on â and as a colleague to work over hours with, he was a dream come true as you had found out today. The sun was throwing its last rays over the skyline of Yokohama, bathing the agency rooms in a dim, pinkish colour that softened the edges and seemed even to lighten up shadows. The atmosphere was filled with a quiet, peaceful concentration as the two of you each sat at their desks. It happened while he was handing you the last stack of papers that had to be edited. He was already looking at his schedule, carefully scanning the to-do-list, while you were revising the last letter you had worked on, which led to you grabbing the papers in a way that made your hands overlap - your small hand resting shortly over his fairly bigger, yet slender one â before you flinched away, instinctively retrieving from the unexpected touch.
You were used to people not questioning this further and if they did, looking at you funny; so you did not expect him to instantly lift his view from the notebook in front of him, turning to you to raise his eyebrows slightly and give you an attentive, asking look. He didnât look surprised, but rather calm. Still, you could feel a subtle sense of concern linger under his polite question as he asked: âIs everything okay, (y/n)-san?â You were fast to nod and disperse his worries and soon, both of you were focusing again at the task as hand. But later, when he walked you home as he always did dutifully at such late hours, you found yourself feeling the memory of the warmth of his hand linger on your skin.
The first time he kissed your hand was over a year later. Time and patience had made the two of you grow close, finding comfort and understanding in the other, making you the closest of friends. Or so you told yourself, even when the random memory of the warmth of his touch returned to you occasionally. When your hands touched by accident now, you didnât flinch anymore. And even though he never commented on it, you had an inkling he noticed, just as you noticed that he was always careful not to touch you out of the blue.
As soon as you had seen the posters for the new exposition in the western history museum in Yokohama, you knew you had to go. By this point of your friendship, you didnât hesitate to ask Kunikida if he would like to accompany you on your free day. And how was he supposed to say no when you look at him, your face the mirror image of a little sun radiating bliss into the world? Not that he would have refused either way though. He had found himself drawn to your reserved, yet tender and life-affirming personality since a long time, craving against all logic to be close to you at all time. So he agreed.
Your day at the museum was spectacular. The exposition was a splendid mix of art, fashion, music and technology through the ages, ending in an interactive section where you had the choice to put on costumes and get a photograph in a historical setting. After a whole evening of indulging in your passion, you felt little hesitation to suggest you partake in this to keep a memory of your day spent together, to which he was surprisingly fast to agree. When you stepped out of your changing room and onto the little historical set, you werenât ready for the view: Kunikida looked rather splendid in the white suit, a purple vest shining under his dress jacket, and you were quick to lower your gaze, hoping to hide your blush. What a shame though, since you didnât catch the look of utter awe as Kunikida looked at you in your gorgeous gown.
The only one that didnât catch the mood was the photographer. With the impatience of a man who just wants to do his job, he asked you two to strike a pose so he could take a picture. Kunikida was the first to move again, silently offering you his hand, giving you the chance to refuse the touch. Which you did not. And so he bent over, bowing to you in a graceful manner you never were aware he had, one arm behind his back, one foot forward, to press an oh so gentle and careful kiss upon the back of your gloved hand. The photo was shot in this exact moment, an forever reminder of his gentleness â and your surprised, flushed face.
The first time you touched his cheek was a few months after the museum visit; it was the day he finally confessed. You noticed him to be nervous all day; any slightest change of his mood was easy to read for you by now, as you always kept an eye out on him at all times for many reasons. You had felt the shift in your relationship since that museum visit; just like everything in your relationship, it came silently and slowly, letting both of you accommodate to the unspoken love that was growing between you. But to bloom, it had to said some time and you surely didnât expect him to be so nervous about the matter, even though you knew youâd never be able to take this step yourself, not even at this stage of your relationship.
His posture was even straighter then normal when he faced you, his face even more serious, his words even politer, if any of that was even possible. Any other person may had been intimidated by his stance, but you knew right away that it was nothing more than a way to cope with the nervousness that was surging inside of him. As you listened to his words, you couldnât help but notice how they seemed awfully precise, as if he had prepared them beforehand, which of course was the case. And suddenly, just by realizing what an actual mess the man in front of you was right now, your own nervousness ceased to make space for a loving compassion. Wanting to soothe him, you stepped closer, offering a comforting and warm smile as he looked at you quite flustered. You raised your hand to place it softly against his cheek, and witnessed his eyes widen in surprise before lowering your gaze to give him a moment calm himself.
âYouâre doing great. Go on whenever youâre ready.â
If Kunikida needed any last proof that he was taking the right decision by confessing to you, here it was. When he placed his large hand over yours and carefully grabbed your other hand to hold, his voice sounded calmer and even though you werenât looking up, you knew he was smiling lovingly when he asked permission to ask you out on an official date.
The first time you kissed was on a cold wintersâ day a few weeks later. The agency had been busy, buzzing with missions and clients going in and out and you had barely had time to do anything as a couple but share work. So you were quite excited when Kunikida told you he would be picking you up on your first free evening since a while to visit a newly opened library. After a short stroll through the shopping districts of Yokohama, you arrived at the place and as you dived into the seemingly endless shelves of books, surrounded by the smell of fresh ink and old knowledge, both of you finally felt the stress melt away. Your personal happiness even double when you found yourself in front of an extensive section books about musical history; Kunikida stood beside you, listening with a content smile while you talked excitedly, taking one book in the hand after the other to critically examine their contents and standpoints. It overcame him like a sudden wave, a need to be spontaneous he surely wasnât used to. But in this precise moment, there was nothing he wanted more than to wrap you in his arms and draw you close. And there was nothing that could express the immense adoration he felt for you but a to press a warm, longing kiss upon your lips, silencing the stream of words coming from them in the most tender way. Alas, nothing could have increased his happiness more in this moment than you leaning against him and giving in to the kiss, which was precisely what you did just then.
A/N: My conclusion of this is: I am not able to KISS (keep it short and simple) and I love writing fanfictions about my friends LMAO. Somehow this got even longer than the first one, but I just let it flow, you know?
