Eddie, who is intently watching Steve, fidgeting every so often. If Eddie was a cat, his tail would be flicking back and forth with rapid increasing movements as he got ready to attack.

Steve, who was so innocently watching the game, happens to realize he hasn't heard Eddie say anything for awhile. Which means one (1) thing: he's up to mischief.

Steve barely has time to turn his head to look when Eddie tackles into him. Steve falls back further onto the couch with a grunt as his boyfriend wrenches his shirt up. "The hell-" Steve's hands are in the air, unsure if he should pull Eddie closer or push him away.

The hesitation gives Eddie enough time to attempt to slither under his shirt. Eddie can only fit his head and the tops of his shoulders under Steve's form-fitting t-shirt, but it's enough. His eyes light up at the torso covered in hair and freckles.

Eddie lays his head against Steve's chest with a dull thud, echoing the thudding of Steve's heart. Eddie snakes his arms around Steve's waist. Eddie can feel Steve slowly place a hand on his back, and stroke up and down his spine.

Steve lightly pulls the neck back so he can look down his shirt at Eddie. Eddie doesn't see it, the look on his face, content to just lay there with his eyes closed. But the adoration, love, and pure glee can't be held back on Steve's face.

in provenance, the impala is depicted as quite dirty and beat-up, scuffed up and covered in mud. this is not the typical image that comes to mind when you say a man loves his car. in later seasons too, the impala tends to look shiny and new, and dean is seen performing maintenance on it pretty regularly—at least, there are many scenes that show dean taking care of it, and there are also many scenes which touch on dean's possessiveness and care for his car.

this isn't the case in season 1. season 1 dean has a beat-up hand-me-down from his dad which he loves and admires but is still willing to let it get dirty and dented and scuffed.

in season 1, the impala represents john.

based on how john talks about the car in dead man's blood, he still has a semblance of ownership over it: john gave dean the car, but he still considers it "his" in the sense that he feels entitled to judge how dean cares for it. dean, too, doesn't argue with this. in season 3, dream dean even uses this against real dean to drag out his insecurities and his abysmal self-esteem:

both john and dean agree that the impala is john's car. this makes sense because the impala is also sam and dean's literal home, or the closest to home they've ever gotten.

you have a good "home is where the heart is" kind of connection here: the impala is home, and john is the impala—john is home, john is their father, john is the thing that connects sam and dean by blood. et cetera et cetera.

so if the impala represents john, then how dean treats the impala gives the audience a lovely visual metaphor for how dean feels about john. provenance is just one episode after something wicked, where dean is finally starting to extricate himself from his father. the entire season has followed dean as he experiences betrayal after betrayal from his father, and in shadow we see evidence that he doesn't actually believe that his father will come to protect them anymore—he's effectively given up on john as someone to rely on, and he's spent the whole season separating himself from john and attaching himself to sam instead. provenance gives a nice wink and nod at this by showing the state of the impala—dean is upset with john, their relationship is crumbling, and dean doesn't know how to repair it.

one episode later john remarks on the state of the car, and one episode later dean finally defies his father for seemingly the first time.

so when dean starts destroying the impala in everybody loves a clown, what dean is actually destroying is john.

he feels angry, upset, hurt, betrayed all over again. john is dead, and his final words to his son gave him an impossible task. dean takes the crowbar to the impala right after sam corners him into another conversation about john—this is an outpouring of his emotions about him, all concentrated on the last remaining symbol of his father.

but what i think is interesting is that sam doesn't see the impala this way.

sam sees the impala as dean. the symbolism here is very, very obvious. if sam gives up on the impala, then he's metaphorically giving up on dean. and sam refuses to let dean die, so he can't let the impala die, either. to sam, the impala is dean. which necessarily means that to sam, dean is his home, as well.

which is exactly what he just chose in the season 1 finale when he picked dean over his revenge. sam spent the entire season scared to "go home," and in devil's trap he finally returns for good to his home—to dean.

and in bloodlust, the impala is fixed, and she's shining like new. from this moment on, dean shows a rather pointed possessiveness over his car.

this is also the first time dean calls the impala "baby." this is the first thing that happens after dean destroyed it in the episode prior. the dissonance gives a sense of rebirth: something happened between dean destroying the impala and dean fixing it. something happened between dean using the impala as a stand-in for his father and dean calling it his baby.

in season 2, the impala no longer represents john. john is dead, and dean killed him. "home" is no longer centered around john; their father is no longer the thing that connects sam and dean. in devil's trap they chose each other, they chose codependency, they created a relationship between them that transcends the family structure they inherited from john. john is not part of this new relationship—it's just sam and dean now, and john is dead.

dean assimilates to sam's perspective when he rebuilds the impala: his car is now an extension of himself, and he is the home that sam chose. this is now his car, not john's; he is now sam's family, not john. and throughout the first half of season 2 dean struggles with this new responsibility and what that means for him—how their codependency should work, whether or not he should try to fill john's shoes, what "home" is supposed to look like for them without john in it.

i think it's an interesting way to depict dean's emotional shift across this stretch of episodes. seasons 1 and 2 especially do a lot of great work to depict john even in his physical absence, from allegorical substitutes to his haunting presence to this, representing him through the symbol of their literal home. noticing this makes me much more emotional about the impala's role in the story, because it's a physical manifestation of the effort dean put in to become sam's home and commit to their codependent relationship. he loves his car because it's his home, and his home is where sam and dean's hearts are.

can we talk about how tesseralia makes tres horny boys who they are and parallels them in story and song beautifully. magnus coaching a group of kids and encouraging them and telling them they can win when all the odds seem against them vs hoisting angus on his shoulders and telling him to let the world know they won. taako’s first profound experience of the bonds formed through cooking vs developing the power to fight the embodiment of despair and apathy through cooking a meal with somebody. merle’s first meeting with his greatest enemy who’s completely ideologically opposed to his commitment to love and joy vs his last moment with his old friend john appreciating the beauty of the world together

okay i got another one uhhh

LADS Men laying in bed and reacting to you recreating the FNAF 2 Withered Foxy jumpscare (aka you basically pouncing onto him to cuddle with him)

Xavier:

okay so imagine. He's laying in bed, it's night time, and he's eepy as usual

Suddenly, the door to your shared bedroom opens. It's dark in the hallway

You play the fnaf 2 jumpscare sound effect from your phone as you run in and basically jump to land onto Xavier.

He teleports away, leaving you to jump onto the bed only.

After you land onto your comfy bed, you look up at Xavier who is now standing by the bed and holding a hand to his chest.

"You scared me there, darling."

Gets into bed next to you and starts to cuddle with you normally.

Zayne:

Zayne is working on his laptop in bed, so you decide to wait until he's done.

Once he closes the laptop and sets it to the side, that's when you attack.

The scream sound effect from your phone plays from your pajama pants pocket as you run in and pounce onto Zayne.

You do land on him, but then bounce off and land onto the empty bedside beside him.

Zayne looks at you, bewildered but amused.

"...My dear, what was that all about?"

You explain that you just wanted to cuddle with him, and he sighs before pulling you close.

"You could've just asked. I wouldn't of said no."

Rafayel:

This is one of the few times he's voluntarily in bed instead of painting all night, so you wanted to surprise (scare) him.

You set your phone in your pocket, and as soon as Rafayel was comfy in bed, you play the sound and leap onto Rafayel.

Rafayel screams LOUDLY and dodges, making you land onto the bed and him fall off the bed.

You quickly get up and look over the side of the bed, looking at Rafayel who was now pouting and panting hard.

"You okay, Rafayel?"

"No! Obviously not, cutie! What the heck was that?!"

You had to explain, but then he sighs and gets back into bed.

"I can see why you got so excited....Just never do that again, cutie. For both our sakes."

Sylus:

Luke and Kieran went in on this idea, with Kieran recording on his own phone as Luke provided the sound effects from his.

Once everything was set up and Sylus was in bed and waiting for you, you run in (while leaving the door wide open as you opened it) and try to jump onto the bed.

Sylus uses his Evol to keep you in the air. He looks at you, confused.

"Kitten, what are you doing?"

"....Nothing."

You had to explain while the twins laughed in the background. After you explained everything, Sylus put you on the bed with a playful eye roll.

"I can't believe you three thought of this up. Well, at least I get to hold my beloved close in the end."

The twins left after that, fake gagging like a little kid seeing their parents kiss.

Caleb:

still don't know much about him (and i dont feel romantic towards him) so uh. i dont know how to write this one JKSNGJSK

okay uh. He's in bed of course, after reading a book and now waiting for you.

You open the door slowly, and the scream sound effect plays as you jump onto him.

However, you forget his arm is. metal.

So you hit yourself (not enough to cause serious injury thank god) and then fall onto your side of the bed.

Caleb looks at you, concerned but laughing.

"Oh no, are you okay???"

"Fuck you, I'm not !!!"

However, you do recover (with a new bruise or 2 now) and start to cuddle with him. Him poking fun at you due to your prank, of course.

i haven't been able to stop thinking about how keefe noted that everything is flower-patterned in humanland. and ik sophie explained it away by implying that the hotel he was staying in had it esp bad, but the thing is.. he was totally right. esp from an elven pov. why do we have flowers on everything? why don't the elves? they decorate with stones and jewels, sparkles. things that are immutable, long lasting, things that reflect light. while humans decorate with that which is fleeting, merely a single iteration of a short and ever-changing life, specifically the iteration that actively absorbs light.

however trivial, this difference feels so indicative of all that separates elves and humans in terms of ideology. and it only makes sense considering how long elven lives are, that they wouldn't know to appreciate the cycle of life and death and the beauty to be found at their intersection. on the flip side, you see that because of their truncated existence, humans have grown used to taking. they're hungry because of how little time they have to grow and thrive, whereas elves have an abundance of life and light, so much that the only real solution is to send it back out in a way that should be primarily altruistic, but that has the ability to cause real pain.
