#sam is too scary

I'm breaking this one out by itself because it's a little funny.

*Dean's phone rings*

*Dean answers without looking*

*Dean proceeds to yell at Cas*

Ah, right. What could possible be so important?

/////

Sam goes on to tell Dean that *drumroll* Sam is Lucifer's true vessel.

WOW! Scary!

DEAN: *sarcastically* Just when you thought you were out, they pull you back in, huh Sammy? SAM: That's it? That's your response?

It's... completely lost of Sam, though, the REASON for Dean's sarcasm.

See. It's this: now that Sam's found out that HE'S a vessel, he's in his car, an absolute FIRE lit under his goddamned tail, EAGER to get back in and fight.

Sam.

SAMMY.

🤦🤦🤦🤦

Dean throws a hint.

DEAN: *sarcastically again* I guess I'm a little numb to the earth-shattering revelations at this point. SAM: Well what are we gonna do about it?

And Sam... still doesn't get it.

Sigh.

Here's the thing. Sam wasn't panicking when they learned that Dean was a vessel. Only Cas and Bobby were panicked and stressed. They were mean, but they were at least aware of the reality of things.

But Sam.

Yes, Sam was going through things, struggling with things, and taking time to go through things is okay. But on the other hand, it definitely still hurts that Sam wasn't insisting on staying in the fight on Dean's behalf, to protect Dean from becoming a vessel.

But now that Sam's learned that he's a vessel?

Boom.

It's not even that, though. It's this whole conversation.

Because what's missing here? Empathy for Dean's plight.

Sam doesn't realize that this is why he's perpetually at... the kids' table. This right here.

In this whole conversation, Sam is eaten up with ranting about his own feelings, about how he's sick of being a puppet, and how he's going to hunt Lucifer down and gain redemption.

Sam's all about "how he can do this," how he's "gonna prove it to you."

It makes him seem a lot younger than he is.

....

There's no acknowledgment of how helpless Dean must have been feeling all this time, knowing that he's been targeted by an archangel, about how scary this whole thing is.

Hell, even Cas acknowledged Dean's fears re: Michael.

I mean: He did it in his Cas way, but it still acknowledged the enormity of the fear.

Cas:

///

Meanwhile, Sam back in 5x01, right after DEAN learned about being Michael's vessel: Geez, why is everyone so cranky and stressed?

🥺Dean, what do you mean that you didn't mean your pep talk to Bobby? Whaaaat? 🥺

///

....

And the thing is. Not "getting it"? That's understandable. But this conversation is just... devoid of support for Dean.

And they're not. Sam's zapping all the strength for himself.

When they've been together lately, Dean is the big brother who lends support, and Sam isn't giving anything back. Sam's out to prove himself, not to support others.

And they tell older siblings and parents to be patient, to let them learn, to step back and forgive, to be "a soft place to land."

That's hard to do. And it's exhausting.

And aside// Sam's apology to (demon) Bobby was SO MUCH NICER. Sam, where is this humility and energy for other people????

SAM: No, actually. Bobby, this is all my fault. I'm sorry. Lilith did not break the final seal. Lilith was the final seal. I killed her, and I set Lucifer free. You guys warned me about Ruby, the demon blood, but I didn't listen. I brought this on. I'm sorry.

Ah yes, if requests are still open

Even tho i know it was a joke-

More trans Solar and Ruin art please? (I grew emotionally attached with just one picture)

"I can't belive we're both eclipses and trans!"

Congratulations on being my first requester on here!! Though I'm not quite sure if you ment to send me the ask and not @/quasar-kaiser since the request makes a little more sense with the context of their post on the same topic(?)

There's a version with a blank flag below the cut

I cling onto the fact Solar knits with everything I've got

[prentissluvr]

who also currently has sam winchester in their bed and is kissing the bridge of his nose and making him blush by loving him so softly and purposefully and carefully and completely ???

The idea that GRRM is anti Tolkien is particularly funny because ASOIAF is sprinkled with rather intricate (and even passionate) homages to LOTR. And I can’t help but think of how Tolkien’s Fellowship, more specifically the Hobbits, may have inspired GRRM’s Night’s Watch. Jon Snow, for starters, is in many ways a combination of LOTR’s Frodo and Aragorn. And in the same way that Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin are unexpected heroes in LOTR (because who looks to a hobbit as the face of an epic adventure?), Jon the bastard becomes the leader of a ragtag of socially disenfranchised men (in the form of the NW) who are anything but heroic. Sure there’s the odd knight or noble in there, but the NW is quite full of criminals and the very worst of the social order. The hobbits aren’t the strongest or the sharpest but they become the face of the fight against Sauron. And the NW, while being severely undermanned and under-equipped, has become the main force that stands against winter. GRRM even adds a love letter to Tolkien’s Sam Gamgee by adding his on Sam - Sam Tarly - who acts as a moral compass and counselor to Jon, in the same ways that Sam Gamgee is key to Frodo’s journey. And just like Frodo, Jon gets his very own pair of jokester friends, one of whine is even named Pyp. So it’s all very beautiful and nice, and we should talk about it more because it’s super evident that GRRM is a massive Tolkien fanboy. But I do have to say tho, GRRM’s take on Gandalf is exceedingly hilarious just because Melisandre is famously very bad at her job.

made a quick doodle comic bc im revisiting some old asf episodes from the show lol

picked a nice lil episode to dissect lunar like they're a frog from bio class

anyways. do u think lunar thought their interaction with moon made them feel off. like. that's not really the same guy they knew before they died, just saying.

(( reunited with lunar in vr chat episode. yeah it's 5 months ago ))

more rant in the tags as usual

[soullessjack]

another offshoot of jack being infantilized is that it’s leeched into the popular mischaracterization of jack as some soft sensitive crybaby who hates violence, hates scary things and is super nice and sweet and cutesy all the time and of course he’s used to accessorize Claire as a big mean lesbian sister who always gets them in trouble, and what makes it so unbearable besides the ableist rooting, is that it’s just canonically utterly wrong. like go back and watch 13x02 & 03. go back and watch 14x06 when they convince Dean to go on a case behind Sam’s back. or look at any time they’re defiant to Cas (and for the love of god do not look at it as “lol sassy baby dean is a bad influence bad dad 😂” or so help me I am throwing multiple rocks at you). like you can say he’s a bitch. you can say he’s a cunt even. it won’t kill you.

in fact, I implore you to, because it is a step away from infantilizing his every action as silly baby behavior and ergo a step in the right direction. look at the entire apocalypse world arc where he decides he has to personally kill Michael when the plan was only ever to escape through the rift. remember the scene where they’re crying in the woods and it got ran with as hashtag poor baby boy whump and nobody noticed that he’d literally almost strangled someone because of their impulsive temper?? or when they made the decision to brutally torture a man by snapping and twisting his skeleton and burning him so intensely his shirt fabric blackened?? and somehow that gets turned into shit like “daddy hold my sippy cup” because for some fucking reason you guys are so intent on making him out to be a child and infantilizing his canon traits to be more palatable to that idea of him.

TLDR please can we actually recognize how bitchy and violent and rebellious jack is. can you guys realize that his entire behavioral pattern of saying hi and waving hello is him masking and repressing because his emotions literally are nuclear charged and he doesn’t want to be a threat. can we please.

I try to be all let people do fandom how they want but oh boy. The bad takes everywhere about beetee and wiress. Stumbled on a reddit thread saying beetee's a mary sue whose only trait is being smart like.... get away from my man actually! People who think wiress has to be brain damaged and is unable to have any "normal" social interaction?? Literally how is it possible to misunderstand them so badly its not even like there's a million words of layered complexity to sift through a lot of it is explicitly stated/shown in the tiny amount of time the narrative gives to both of them. (And the way they're both commonly erased from the Quell alliance ugh.)

THIS!!! oh my god i will never not be mad about the common misinterpretations in this fandom. like of course wiress was having trouble communicating, she was literally going through possibly the worst thing that ever happened to her AGAIN. yes beetee is mainly characterized as being smart but that’s because he’s a side character with not much information on him, not because he’s a mary sue. like are we idiots. have we learned nothing in english class.

COCO WHATEVER YOU WROTE ABOUT SERIAL KILLER CATER JUST KNOW IM STILL GOING INSANE THANKS-

it’s so funny…. An angel and a killer…. We really going for the opposites here my dude

BUT COCO OK YOU THINK YOU’RE BIG SNUGGLING UP IN ANGEL SAM’S WINGS AS YOU TYPE THIS???

Man’s probably going to kill whoever slightly inconvenienced you in front of your face, but he’s going to gently turn you around, pull you into his chest. Shielding you from the blood splatter with his snowy white wings, unfolding them only when the corpse has been splattered into a stain on the pavement. Why the horrified look, darling?

Feathered wings dripping with blood, locking you deeper into a cage of your own making.

You’ll rue the day you accepted him as your own. But it’s too late. Sam isn’t a good guard dog, but he’s gotten his fangs into you.

You’re his favourite mortal, after all.

He loves you so very much.

Everything this lovely angel does is for you. Or that’s what he claims. For all the tender touches he lavishes you with, you fear that one day you’ll feel the burning touch of his halo around your neck.

A mark of ownership, once Sam decides that he doesn’t want to be known as your guardian angel anymore. He’ll much rather have you known as his, yeah?

CERULEAN I'M TRYING TO GET THE DOVE OUT OF MY MIND AND YOU COME TO ME WITH THAT-

A SURPRISE ATTACK??? WHAT IS THAT, WHY??? WHAT DID I DO???.....ok- if you are going to do it like that. Lets play. YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO BEG SAM TO BIND ME WITH HIS STUPID ANGEL HALO-

I AM VERY SORRY FOR THE CATER FANS WHO WILL BE COLLATERAL DAMAGE OF THIS- YOU HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE OF KISSING A DOUBLE... or four... FACES! THEIR LIPS ARE GOING TO DRY FROM KISSING SO MANY FACES, HYDRATE THEM WITH LIP BALM- IT'S NOT MY FAULT THAT YOUR HUSBAND SMELLS LIKE acid yandere eau du parfum- PAY THE PRICE.

"nuu Cay-Cay is not that bad" crack-crack-crack- this is the sound of his heart breaking crack-crack. He's good on the inside... I know... BUT I CARE VERY LITTLE.

Do you think Tara eventually starts forgetting Amber's details? The sound of her voice, the color of her eyes, her favorite song.

Obviously you don't just forget someone you loved that much, but it's been a year since Tara has seen or heard Amber, plus all the traumatic memories she has attached to her.

Could you imagine if Tara's brain started blocking Amber out as a trauma response?

WEEPS.

eough. totally. tara's brain altering some memories or blocking them as a trauma response. EOUGH.

it starts with simple things, the kind of simple that tara wouldn't worry about at first. a song that would always make her think about amber suddenly not making her want to cry as much. that story she told her once during a sleepover suddenly fading away from her mind. amber was allergic to something in this meal, what was it?

forgetting these things gave her a certain relief, somehow. amber was a complicated subject. she didn’t know how she was supposed to feel, and the thought of her was always too painful, too scary. so, maybe these small details weren’t meant to be stored in her mind, the ghost of her best friend (the person who tried to kill her) finally deciding to rest and let her be.

so, if tara couldn't remember the name of amber's childhood pet, she wouldn't bat an eye. if her tumblr username didn't cross her mind, it would be fine, because it meant she wouldn't wanna check it out once more, like it's amber's own personal diary.

even if it the idea of forgetting it made her anxious. even if not thinking about her hurt as much as thinking about her.

her dreams became more and more jumbled after that, psychedelic counterparts to the very real memories her brain decides to play on repeat as soon as she closes her eyes.

amber seemed more strange with every night: hands a little rougher than what she remembers when her mind replays her choking her neck, face more, and more, and more distorted as she burns alive. sometimes she was taller than she actually was, other times, she seemed shorter than tara. she never used these rings, and what was that pendant on her necklace? her eyes didn’t seem her own, her hair was somehow not right. didn’t she have a beauty mark somewhere on her face? i could swear her smile was different. why does everything seem so wrong?

i’ll make it quick, the person in her dreams would say as it places tara in the closet, voice just not quite right, tying her body instead of just her hands. wasn’t it different? is this what actually happened? i promise, tara. i'll end her and come back for you. i'll take care of you.

(she never said that.

did she say that?

what did she say, anyway?)

I love how you think that sam carter and teyla have scary dog privilege since they walk around with these big scary men and then they get in a fight and you go "oh. oh she's a little feral actually. she can take care of herself."

GOT DISTRACTED WHOOPS. anyways this was a part of a much bigger ramble but the few parts I wanna highlight are these bc I think abt it kind of a lot. For context in some padts: me and a friend were talking about how "sleep mode" could be the time that robots take to work on sorting files in their mind n such.

no but also ough. with solar flare developing sentience also it would make sense for them to have folders where they sort certain things by what they felt at that moment. getting yelled at and putting it in a “bad feelings” folder. having a cat come up and brush against their leg and putting it in a “good feelings” folder. they ofc also have like, a “weird feelings” or “mixed feelings” or “unknown feelings” folder but they Like to be able to pin down whether it’s a good or bad feeling first bc it makes them feel like they’re Getting themselves a lil more. or smth yk

Just having a while where the overwhelming-ness of being is hitting them and then on top of that they have a gazillion unsorted files that confuse them and they “wake up” feeling just as spent, if not more, than when they first entered sleep mode and they’re just like. blehg

it would b slow. but i think it’d b nice if their internal files becoming more and more sorted also reflected how they’re starting to finally get their footing on existence n such. yk
