Coming soon for the @destielaureversebb: “Burn Without Flame”

Rating: Explicit Archive warnings: None Length: 12,000 words Tags:  Human AU, Firefighter Dean, Detective Cas, Mutual Pining Relationships: Dean/Castiel, side Charlie/Dorothy, past Cas/April

Summary:  

In his work as a firefighter, Dean gets to help people and has once again been chosen to model for the next year’s first responder calendar. Castiel is new in town after a bad break-up forces him to move. He is a detective assisting in fire investigations which is how he first meets Dean. After a few hiccups on the road, they begin to build a friendship, with mutual wishes that it could grow into something more.

But Cas’ past is about to come back to haunt him and it’s doing its best to stop him from building the future he wants.

Excerpt: 

Dean was fixing the fire engine, enjoying some alone time he didn’t often get during workdays. He was humming a tune, when he heard footsteps approaching him. Expecting to hear Bobby asking about the engine, Dean answered before he heard the question.

“Just figured out where the problem is, Bobby,” he said. “I’ll be right with you!”

He spent a few minutes yanking off a part that looked like it had seen better days. Dean smiled and scrolled from under the engine, holding the broken part in his hand, when he looked up to see a devastatingly handsome man in a full suit standing next to the vehicle.

“Oh, fuck. Sorry for making you wait,” Dean said, putting the broken part down and grabbing a towel to wipe his hands as clean as he could. He was sweaty, covered in engine grease, and wearing an old pair of jeans and a dirty t-shirt. Not the image he wanted to give to a gorgeous guy on the first meeting.

“It’s no problem,” the man said, looking at Dean intensely as he got back on his feet. “I have a meeting with the fire investigation team.”

“Right,” Dean said. “Not to be rude, but I’ve never seen you before. Who did you say you are?”

“I didn’t,” the man said. “Detective Castiel Novak. You wouldn’t have seen me before, because I just switched here.”

“Alright. Give me a moment,” Dean muttered and took out his phone to call Garth. “Hey, is your team expecting visitors? I’ve got a guy here.”

“Yes, I’m waiting for Castiel Novak. Check his badge and send him in,” Garth said brightly.

“Sure thing. Thanks,” Dean said and ended the call. “Could I see your badge first?”

Castiel pulled out his badge and Dean nodded.

“This way then,” Dean said and led Castiel to the office corridor. “Down the hall and you’ll find the fire investigators near the end. There should be a sign.”

“Thank you,” Castiel said. Dean followed him with his eyes until he disappeared into the room.

it's 3pm on a friday and i have so much work left, i cant do this rn 😭

Sometimes, I think I’m being a tad too delusional over them, and then the Lestappen scholars uncover something like this and it’s like, yeah no. They’re far weirder about each other than we could’ve ever imagined.

[cluedoenthusiast]

ive invented a new game its called “Shadow Monkey Mystery: Who’s Taking Over?” (still working on the name)

you have to guess whose brain is inside the persons body in the picture i hope that makes sense

miles as jamie

miles as alexa

alex and alexa swapping

alex as miles

jamie as miles

matt as al

miles as al

jamie as al (and possible miles as alexa)

miles as matt

no idea who these are

nicks very hard to recognise whereas you can spot miles a mile away

feel free to play along

[groovygrub]

[anonymouscheeses]

so…

about this human verse you got…

how does Al fit into all of this? Is that where Vaggie got the spell or is the gang she’s a part of also a monster hunter org?

This is Alastor's human design! I wanted him to give off a old money rich vibe. I didn't look up a reference for old money attire 😭 i jjst looked at some randim char from a show i watched that kinda gave off Alastor vibes. This may change but tbh I kinda like it the way it is. Altho one day I may change my mind <3 lore drops under cut!!

(Sorry if he doesn't look like Alastor, these human designs are mostly based on my redesigns so they look even MORE different than usual ill get better hopefulllyyyy)

Husk(left) is Vaggie/Valerie's dad in this au cuz I said so unfortunately. Sorry i dont make the rules! Husk is Salvadoran like Valerie cuz ofc, like he's 100% black but I wanted him to be Valerie's dad soo I was like.... yeah win sum lose sum. But dw I have SO much black characters on the way. It's kind of terrifying!!

Alastor tries to be like a dad to Valerie but she resents him. Her mom died to a sickness, and Valerie has no room in her for another parent figure in her life except Husk.

Also, Al is gay aroace, so when he fell in love with Husk he was SO surprised likeee how??? He was his first love ever and Al just loves him dearly despite never loving anyone ever before. He's still a girls girl ofc but brutha is gay u can't tell me otherwise 😍

Charlie gave him the headband with the antlers that she cheaply made herself. Alastor loves them genuinely. (If Alastor cares abt Valerie or Charlie is purely up to viewer, but if you want to see him care for orr like be toxic to them send a request fr fr imma draw that shi 😍🙏). Alastor is the only one who knows that Charlie is a demon because he's the one that taught Valerie how to summon a demon(YOU'RE SPOT ON. HOW??).

(Also I forgor the stripes. Sorry I was so sleepy drawing this you can probably telll.😭)

Alastor is still a cannibal, his husband and step daughter just doesn't know it yet, and NO he will probably never tell them unless forced to or he feels like he can. This man is the friend the smiley bro 😭

I'll maybe soon draw what happened between Valerie, Lute, and Adam during the fight, since ALOT happened. But it may be a bit before I get to that

Alastor taught the kids young how to summon demons the WRONG way. Because obviously he didn't want literal immature kids to end the world completely. The trio spent years finding ways to summon just one demon. Adam did it to create chaos, Lute just followed, and Valerie just loved having fun with her friends.

Now that they aren't childhood best friends. And that whole fight happened. Valerie doesn't know what to do. Alastor suggests she gets a bodyguard from hell, any demon at all(Demons are devoted to you as long as you keep a part of your deal with them or you break the contract of summoning one). Aaaaand that's how Charlie came to be summoned! Valerie got her eye stabbed out, Alastor was being silly and taught his kid how to summon a demon, Valerie was like "aight ig", then summoned her future wife.

(WILL ALSO ONE DAY DRAW THE FIRST TIME CHARLIE AND VALERIE MET.... ONE DAY....)

Fun fact: Alastor has a radio station of his own that he plays 1920's music in. Although most people would rather NOT listen to old times music, somehow he makes it work that people always listen to his radio. Maybe a deal with a demon of some sorts...? Perhaps... :>

I just noticed that Charlie and Lucifer both have the same rainbow decoration thing. In the Sir Pentious episode, when Angel is showing that Sir Pentious put a camera in the book shelf, the decoration is on a side table. And then you can see one in Lucifer's workshop in the wall before he says "Take that depression!" Not a big thing, but kinda neat.

oh yeah! the rings of hell lamp

at least I... think it's a lamp? I hope it's a lamp, it'd be a pretty cool lamp

Ye! makes sense to me that the king and princess of hell would have a "map" (so to speak) of hell. I assume rulers of countries have a map of their country somewhere, so logically rulers of hell would have their equivalent of it

I believe the color represents the color of the sky from each ring. Pride ring is red, wrath is orange, gluttony is yellow, greed is green, Lust is blue, envy is purple and sloth is pink

Given that Charlie canonically has multiple overlords on her phone's contacts, it wouldn't surprise me if Lucifer has them too in addition to their little map of hell

Since you sent me this ask and I blew up on tumblr mainly cuz of my lucifer post let's make this cute and head canon that Lucifer gave Charlie his before getting a new one for himself. Maybe even in a moment of she showed slight interest in seeing it, and he just "Oh you like this?? Here you can have it! :D"

while we're here, while I was fishing for screenshots, I also saw this in Charlie's shelf

I want to go out on a limb and guess map of heaven?

I couldn't find a map of heaven in Lucifer's study tho, so (building from our shiny new head canon) either he gave the only one he had to Charlie and never bothered to get another one or he never had one to begin with and Charlie got it herself

you know what I did find in lucifer's office tho?

sticky notes everywhere, idk if they're reminders or what but clearly dude's a mess GO TO THERAPY MY GUY

Chaggie drawing prompts

If anyone’s able to lend a hand to me in my time of art block, send me a prompt for Chaggie!

[somegrumpynerd]

Me every time somebody says something nice in the replies or tags on my posts

[iniziare]

✵ + Dan Heng for Jingliu ( I just wanted to give jingliu some attention djfhdsk f)

Prompt: Send ✵ and my muse will answer. // Accepting. // @resolutepath

Their first impression of your muse: Dan Heng is a very complicated one, for the simple reason that, well— we have to touch on her memories of another; for Dan Heng is and will never be able to fully sever himself from Imbibitor Lunae, at least not for those who knew him previously. With that in mind, when Jingliu first looked at him, I can't describe what she felt in that moment any other way than... 'wistful'. She sees a man that is in essence, a shell of the former High Elder that she once respected, a shell of her lifelong friend, but also of that same friend that she was forced to raise her sword against because not only did he fulfill the unforgivable, his actions also threatened the Luofu. But Jingliu remembers the High-Cloud Quintet fondly, and seems to yearn for the days where she thought those would live on indefinitely, it's what she seemed to want in the first place— and it all ended at Baiheng's self-sacrifice for the gain of the rest of them, and a mistake that can never be undone (even if the intentions may have been noble). So seeing Dan Heng is... difficult, because she while she recognizes that is he is only an incarnation of Imbibitor Lunae, he is also still exactly that: an incarnation of someone that was, once upon a time, significant to her.

Current impression: Rather the same as the above as little time passes between their first and last meeting. She bears him no ill-will at this point, but still seems to conflate Dan Heng and Imbibitor Lunae, even though very consciously so. But one thing is rather clear to me, and it's that she wishes to bring an end to the Abundance across the board, but also specifically: "Maybe, when I witness the fall of the Abundance, you and Yingxing will find true release." Her farewell to him is not one of ill-will.

Are they attracted to your muse? Dan Heng? No. And I would say no to Imbibitor Lunae as well at this point, but I also only super recently learned that they were possibly the closest within the HCQ. I'm using this meme as a test for her, Charlie, bear with me.

Something they find frightening about your muse: Again, this is one where she actively conflates him with his previous incarnation, but she does so very consciously, it seems. Now, I'm not certain that 'frightening' would at all be the right word, but we'll humor it. That he was, quite frankly, capable of enacting what he ultimately was responsible for starting. They all held Baiheng dearly in their hearts, as they seemed to across the board, but there is a frightening element to someone's character to go as far as to break laws (when your position revolves around them so firmly) for anything, or anyone, to go beyond the laws of even nature and fate.

Something they find adorable about your muse: Not the right word, or specifically, it's not adorable in the traditional or intended way. But I think she finds herself amused by how insistent he remains that there is enough separation between he and Lunae, while it really seems quite evident to her that his curiosity speaks loudly enough in regards to his memories.

Would my muse sacrifice themselves for yours? Dan Heng, no, Imbibitor Lunae back in the day? Yes, it is the greatest honor for any Cloud Knight after all, to give their life on the battlefield. And if that, on top of it all, would be for a friend, who is there with her? Yes.

Would my muse go on a date with yours (platonic/romantic)? Charlie, the 'Dan Heng? No' and 'Imbibitor Lunae--' is driving me crazy. But Dan Heng, no, Imbibitor Lunae, a yes on the former.

One word my muse would use to describe yours: At this point in time, confused.

Would my muse slap yours if they could? Why slap anyone, if you can raise a perfectly great sword forged by a mutual friend (or if we're speaking Dan Heng, then the point remains but simply a different sword).

Would my muse hug/kiss yours? Despite the fact that he doesn't come across as the type for either very easily, Dan Heng wouldn't be the recipient for either of them, either way. ;)

open yhe noor. OPEN THE NOO

why should i

[gunkbaby]

i think you'd like Chrissy Chlapecka (I may have spelt that wrong) and her music

hi gay peoplEleh !!!!!!

I ADORE chrissy chlapecka! She’s like. The embodiment of what I adore in pop music - she gives me Britney Spears blackout/circus era. Her fashion, her style - it’s everything. I adore her voice - that baby voice vocal fry my British ass could never hope to achieve.

I think she’s underrated atm, like in that musical space where you give it like. Two years and she’ll realise like. The underground album of the year. Very exciting artist to me. Slayyter occupies sort of the same space, but she’s on the come-up i think. I’m guessing u know slayyter tho - not rly similar to Chrissy but in the3 same vague area. I have two wolves inside of me - one listens to Chrissy Chlapecka and charli xcx and Dorian Electra, the other listens to Pulp and The Smiths. Lmao. (I guess I listen to like. Everything tho. I’m full of musical wolves.)

Also this is is like. Horribly unrelated to Chrissy Chlapecka but my two recommendations that I now feel I absolutely must mention whenever talking abt anything remotely music related even when literally no one asked - pls pls pls listen to like. Mother Earth’s Plantasia. It’s an album for plants and it is so beautiful. You can feel the love Mort Garson had for his plants through it. Very special to me, dream vinyl tbh. And Master Peace - such a wonderful new upcoming British artist. I feel like I’m always mentioning him bc his music is just SO good. Like if you like music in general - those two recommendations are my musts. Sorry, super unrelated but I just. I have tooo..

"All things considered, being shot is not as bad as I always thought it might be."

❝ Not that I don't agree... ❞ She starts as she examines the wound, eyebrows pinched lightly and her eyes narrowed just a little. ❝ But is this your first time being shot? ❞ Her eyes flicked over to make contact, lips pressed into a thin smile, the coyote next to her look at the other as well, his head tipped to the left. At least the bullet went right through. ❝ And who was shooting at you? ❞
