projecting onto normal that he was diagnosed as a baby with some chronic gastrointestinal disease but sparrow didn't tell him until recently because "he thought that normal already knew" [but actually it's because he wanted normal to have normal life . despite the fact that norm was in pain every day and had no idea why]

I loved the emails from estate agents in March 2020 that said "please wash your hands 💕 Your landlords are the poorest people in the world MUCH poorer than you as full time undergraduate students so unfortunately you still need to pay ever pound of rent, and we won't be letting anyone terminate contracts early because of our commitment to our impoverished clients. No we will not be performing maintenance work even if you have a pack of rats living in your wall cavities we're just not going to do it until the day before you move out, when we will patch up the hole in the side of the roof where they were getting in and so the rats will DIE IN THE WALLS"

that moment when you cross the point of no return with a character should be accompanied by a specific chime i think. like 🔔 congratulations! this one has been installed in the Permanent Collection and you will never stop thinking about them as long as you live

blowing them up with my mind

It’s because Destiel shippers were demonized and called disgusting perverts who were making shit up out of whole cloth because we saw two attractive white men on screen standing next to each other and felt they should kiss for no other reason than we were weirdo pervs who don’t think about anything but sex all the time.

and if you were outside of the fandom/show, that’s the only way you would’ve heard about Destiel. it was a derogatory way to refer to shipping culture and all its toxicity. (but we stay winning etc etc)

I feel like the experience of all that pre-confession and pre-finale is just unexplainable. it really was something you had to be there for. not in a gatekeeping way, just in a collective trauma way lol

anyway, that’s why people who are new to the show are always so shocked there is such strong evidence for Destiel in text and on screen. if they had heard of it before, it was THEE example of a made up no evidence ship. you’re welcome 🫡

lately I've come across a couple people both here and on tiktok that are now getting into supernatural and basically going "woah you destiel shippers were not kidding, I always thought you were probably exaggerating". And it's like we definetely were not, but I also wonder where this reaction comes from and I think I've got it.

We all know what fandom is, especially if we're talking about non-canon ships. We take the subtext and make it textual, we live in the crevices of stolen glances and romantic paralels. But most of the time there's another (straight) canon ship that the writers can use to queerbait us, being like "see? this is who he really wants". Take BBC Merlin, for example: the devotion and closeness between Merlin and Arthur is obvious, but it's easy to point at Arthur's feelings for Gwen and say "see? this is what's real. you're reading too much into it".

Destiel doesn't have one. The very (mysoginistic) nature of the show means neither Dean nor Cas have any significant relationships the writers could point to and show us the "truth" so there is nothing to distract from what's obviously happening on our screens. There is no great romantic storyline to tell us "this is who he really wants" so they are all that it's left and what's between them becomes undeniable. What's even worse, the other main relationship in the show is as platonic as you can get because Sam and Dean are related (let's ignore the existence of wincest please and thank you), so the difference between Dean's relationship with Sam and his relationship with Cas is so stark, so obvious, that is hard to even begin to compare them and try to paint them both with the same brush.

I know I'm just rambling but would love to hear your thoughts on it.

*three hours later*

buck: HEY BABE WANNA KNOW HOW ACRYLIC YARN IS MADE?!

tommy: uh, obviously! how is it made?

buck: okay so acrylic yarn is made from a coal based and petroleum chemicals, making them fossil fuels! the petroleum chemicals is treated with certain monomers, which is a type of molecule that leads to the formation of polymers! acrylic fibre and yarn are made from a synthetic polymer called acrylonitrile!

tommy: oh wow, that's really interesting baby *kisses buck head* what made you deep dive on acrylic yarn?

buck: huh? oh! i somehow got to crochet tok and got curious, but do you know what that means babe?

tommy: what?

buck: everyone who crochets dinosaurs with acrylic yarn is making dinosaurs with dinosaur juice

tommy: dino juice-

buck: dino juice!!

Curly hair are his baby hairs.. will get straight as he grows up (Robrond is a babyyyyyyyyyyyy I won't take no)

SERIOUS QUESTION

Do you think Elrond has naturally curly hair like in S2 & has to straighten it every day in the TA?

OR does he have naturally straight hair & had to curl it for the events of the SA?

we were sitting on the floor and i was cutting out tiny pictures to make a collage for a friend's birthday. you were on your phone and you laughed about something, and i was still in love with you then, so i asked what had you giggling.

"sorry. i was just..." you took a moment and went back to texting. "i was telling someone about how you're afraid of the dark."

i'm afraid of the dark because something bad happened. "oh." i felt a little slinky of shame crawl down my throat.

you glanced up, and maybe it showed on my face, because you rolled your eyes and held the phone to the side casually so i could see the group chat. "what? was it a secret?"

i looked down to the scissors in my hand. "i just..." no, it's not a secret. it just felt like something private, something serious. saying why would you tell someone that just feels like an accusation. it's unfair. i honestly am not even ashamed of it, it's just a fact about my person that i don't usually share.

what a strange experience. is this a human thing or a generational thing? for our grandparents: did they need to worry about how quickly someone can just... share your personal information? again, i didn't even really have a true objection. what could i say? i want any person in my life to feel they can be honest with their friends. it's not like i said don't tell anyone this.

i cut out another letter to complete the rainbow happy birthday, started hunting for the exclamation mark. i heard you sigh dramatically.

"don't make a big deal about this," you said.

this entire conversation was a pattern for us, and this was when we got to my least favorite part of the pattern. i would get my feelings hurt in some oblique not-technically-terrible way, and then it would be making a big deal about something. you'd get frustrated for me for being soft, but i was born soft. you knew i was soft when you pierced me. it's one of the things that made controlling me so easy.

"i'm not," i felt my voice crack. the question came without my wanting. "why are you guys talking about me?" and why are you saying that thing? why not like - i'm telling them how you're generous and kind and pretty.

you let out this low, tragic groan. "oh my god." you tossed the phone away from your body. "there, see? i just won't talk to them if you don't like it."

the rest of the hour went the way it always went, between us: i said i don't actually mind if you talk to your friends but -, you found a way to call my minor expression of discomfort "being dramatic." you got upset that i had been offended. i ended up apologizing, even though i hadn't actually done anything.

afterwards, you picked up the phone again. after texting for a little bit, you snorted. "okay," you said, "but it is kind of funny you're afraid of the dark. i mean, when you think about it."
