THERE AIN'T NO ATLAS, KID. NEVER WAS.

if you peel him back far enough, there's nothing but a pile of theater masks

like, it's really fun how fontaine starts spiralling out the closer jack gets to him in the final arc of the game and returns to appropriating the image of family (the fake family in the beginning, the flawed father position later) to try and appeal to jack in some way but it's like. buddy. baby. you already took off your mask. anything you try and put on after this is going to come across as cheap and desperate. the magic is gone! and personally? I'm hooting and hollering

Your brother has come back to you.

It seems impossible. But you test him and you test and you test him, and he keeps coming back true.

Your brother is back.

But you dont know his body.

His smile seems the same, but he doesn't meet your eyes the way he used to.

He smells almost the same, and he still likes it when you pull into him and bury your face against his neck, making yourself small again.

But theres a scent underneath that didnt used to be there, like hot metal and blood.

You think he can smell it too.

He washes more often.

You run your hands over him but no, you dont know this body at all.

Neither does he.

It scares you both.

Wheres the scars from when you were children? The crooked nose and fingers from too many fights? The spidering silver line across his forehead that marked something you'd never forget?

His skin is as smooth as a child's, and you shudder because of it.

The first wound you stitched up for him, that didnt heal well but he wore with pride because "Chicks dig scars, Sammy" and because that was you, you on his skin? That's gone, replaced by a stranger's handprint, branded in.

You hate it.

The only mark left on your brothers body is from someone else, and you HATE IT.

You want to cut it off, but he watches you differently with a knife in your hand now, like he's afraid of it, and you can't bear that so you don't.

The two of you spend afternoons minutely examining his body, looking for anything familiar. He's always completely naked and you wish it were erotic.

Instead, it just feels like grief.

to yell about an argument done to death: even the language around sam in-show and amongst fans annoys me. sam didn't 'let lucifer out of the cage' which is a wording that implies he solely and singlehandedly opened the door - he unknowingly broke 1 of 66 locks on a door because he was being completely in the dark about lilith being a seal and what killing her would do.

dean unknowingly broke the first lock and started the entire thing but nobody in-show or amongst fans carry the same energy for dean as they do with sam even though neither knew what was happening or even that a seal was broken until it was too late. 'dean let lucifer out' never heard of her.

and then! dean's torture of people in hell is never brought up but sam gets this thrown in his face years and years and years later (by dean multiple times no less) and there's still the convenient ignorance of everything else surrounding this; angels let 64 seals break in the name of the heavenly plan, castiel sat on the truth about lilith of a year and opened the door to the panic room to push sam towards ruby and lilith, dean's voicemail was altered to send sam over the edge, dean was held captive by angels to prevent him getting to sam in time, the plan of heaven and hell was to isolate and crush sam mentally so he'd see lucifer as a grace and say yes, lilith dying by sam's psychic abilities was NEVER the requirement so dean stating he and bobby would kill lilith while sam was locked up in the panic room means she could've died a different way with the same result.

there are a lot of things about this that is so glossed over all the time. and it's just reduced to 'sam let lucifer out'. that exact phrasing. i hate it because it is truly not what happened. if anything he was the one that solved everything despite carrying the least amount of part in this. it was literally a collaborative effort manipulated by forces way beyond sam and dean, why is sam blamed for it by fans AND characters who had their own part in this.

need more destiel fic recs that r soo soft and poetic and quotable and make me stop breathing at times yk ???

[metanarrates]

literally love that yjh and kdj's method of communication is beating the shit out of each other. the secret hidden way to overcome The Wall is actually to just fucking hit each other until you come to an understanding

[lambmotifz]

am i the only one who doesn’t like normal/regular wincest au

because all the supernatural storylines are the main factor that makes their dynamic so special. wincest without horror elements just. isn’t wincest

gif makers don't know about their contribution to the reference pics economy. its so much work for me having to reopen episodes, watch on x2 speed and jump around the episode to screenshot different angles for reference pics when im drawing. instead, i can just pop open one post of like 10 images from 10 different angles of one character's face. the hard work is already done. ty for your service.

[weaverofink]

if they weren't cowards they would have had sam go through some subtle physical changes as a result of chugging all that demon blood

design notes and some extra details under the cut:

let him be a creature!!!!! give him his powers back i miss them

Underrated Wincest song: Child of Cain

[annabelle--cane]

josie really lived the best life. pulled a successful beauty and the beast gambit, spent years with a hot vampire boyfriend who stayed good For Her™, broke up with him amiably some time later, lived a full and normal human life in the interim decades, met up with her hot vampire ex by happenstance in her 60s while undergoing treatment for terminal lung cancer and he was clearly still into her, helped save the world by telling george that the vampires were up to no good, helped save the world a second time by donating her blood to get mitchell out of the hospital before too many red flags were raised, and chose to die quickly of heroic and sexy blood drinking over waiting for the lung cancer to take her. in a show full of tragedy and doom she had nothing but win after win after win. "but there are so many plot holes surrounding her" god forbid women do anything.

How dare people say we're crazy for imagining Destiel for all those years,, Dean is Bi, Cas is gay

You can rip this truth from my cold dead hands

[velvetjune]

occasionally get hit by how much I love saga and casey’s relationship. casey being a part of the family, saga investigating on her own to find casey, them supporting each other even in the questionable reality around them, telling each other jokes the entire time, being in sync with their little coffee drinks. love them

[evie-doesnt-write]

We don’t talk enough about the best dynamic: protector and person they fail to protect (similar to saviour and person they could not save)

idk if this really fits but ehh
