The country divides, people flee, and those left are trying their best to survive. Draco Malfoy, raised since birth to believe in Voldemort, grows wiser with age and abandons his home after he realises the terror Voldemort intends to inflict on the world. Afraid of what The Order might do to a marked Death Eater, he goes into hiding where he remains for years until Harry Potter finds him and sparks his long-lost will to fight. Their paths separate, and Draco goes out to join The Order or die trying, not realising that his Death Eater status will be the least of his concerns when he arrives.

Nick Fulano presents: “Stargazing"
Nick Fulano is a singer and songwriter from Boulder, Colorado. He has just dropped his latest album, Stargazing, a 13-track collection that has into many musical styles on it, as it brings together elements of psychedelic folk and alternative acoustic music, among others. The new studio work from the artist stands as a powerful example of Fulano's eclectic influences and personal experiences, offering listeners a glimpse into his creativity and storytelling skills. His storytelling really brings the wow factor to this release!
Right off the bat, the album's production elevates the listening experience, creating an atmosphere that's decidedly immersive and captivating. Organic textures, like the warm, timeless strumming of an acoustic guitar, provide a grounding presence alongside the vocals. These familiar sounds are balanced by ethereal elements that contribute to the album's dreamy, otherworldly quality. Expansive reverb tails and soothing soundscapes enhance the cinematic ambiance, enriching the album's diversity while maintaining a minimalist charm. This thoughtful blend of natural and atmospheric elements allows the music to feel expansive yet intimate, drawing listeners into the fabric of these songs.
Stargazing is a full-rounded album that will appeal to those who appreciate the alt-folk scene in Denver, with artists like the promising Isadora Eden providing a local point of reference for Fulano's work.
There are so many great songs here, and it’s difficult to pick a stand-out one. Still, the track titled “Vampire” is really impressive, not only because of the composition, but also for the lyrics, with lines like “i want to know your story, Iwant to know your narrative” embodying the soul of the album concept itself in a way.
The album is also particularly endearing due to its strong narrative backbone. The songwriting on this record is indeed deeply intertwined with Fulano's past, particularly his time living in the Rainbow House in Val Verde. This storied location, known for its connections to musicians like Ariel Pink, John Maus, and Graham Nash, was a hub for creative exchange, cemented in the annals of music history. During this period, Fulano formed a close bond with Jim Loveless, also known as "Bird," who had ties to the Grateful Dead and played with the Rhythm Devils. Loveless had a truly profound impact on Fulano, extending beyond music to encompass a shared connection to animals and the natural world.
Fulano recounts how his interactions with Loveless, along with other residents of the Rainbow House, including a once-hostile squatter, contributed to his personal and musical growth. A pivotal moment in this journey was when Loveless gifted Fulano a guitar, encouraging him to embrace and develop his own musical style. These experiences ultimately became the foundation for Stargazing. The album as it stands today reflects the transformative power of music and the unique community that shaped its creation, not to mention the memories and the characters that allowed Fulano to further shape his creative vision.
Tumblr media
Recorded over two years, “Stargazing” began to take form during an unplanned stay in Boulder, Colorado, prompted by a Dead & Co. event. Taking Loveless's advice to heart, Fulano dedicated himself to his craft, channeling the spirit of the Rainbow House into each song on this release. The result is a collection of songs that, while diverse in style, maintains a cohesive narrative thread, inviting listeners to explore the stories and emotions that have defined the artist’s upbringing. This album is more than just a who bunch of songs put together in a set; it's a nice and strong reminder that the stories, experiences, and moments we gather in life all add up to the overall meaning of it. With his music, Nick Fulano gives us more than plain ol’ entertainment. His work reflects his way to make sense of life's complexities, offering listeners a deeper connection to the shared human experience.
The artist himself is so passionate, not just about his songs, but even about discussing the background behind his work and all of the experiences that ultimately allowed him to become the artist and person he is today. By channeling his journey into his tunes, Fulano invites us to explore memories and emotions, making the album into a powerful expression of collective understanding and soul searching perhaps. This album sparks a deeper question: what is the purpose of music, and at large, of artistic expression in this day and age? It might be temping to fall into a wave of cynicism and only think of the myriad of performers who are only in it to chase numbers and trends. However, there’s also a lot of room for musicians such as Nick Fulano, who offers his most earnest take on the human experience through his songwriting.
To conclude, Stargazing comes across as a very genuine and real album, which showcases Fulano's ability to put together different influences into a unified artistic vision in a very personal way. The album is a good example of how artists can respond and even be shaped by their community, which can become a true incubator for talent and creative endeavors such as this record. Find out more and listen to the album via Bandcamp, where you can support the artist directly:

John stopped alongside the woman's supine form and listened to the debrief, watched as his knife flashed in the low light and drew a thread of blood. Ariel was artful, light-handed, used the knife as an extension of himself: not only was it satisfying to watch, but an appreciated skill to have in one of his most trusted companions. Careful knife work meant clean edges, few personal injuries, and easily-covered tracks.
He took the wallet as it was offered though he was sure Ari already shared the important details, ended up tossing it aside into a growing pile of personal items taken from trespassers in the corner of the room... Need to have Conor do another burn. "Miss Richards," John repeated, the name rolling off his tongue slow as he tried to remember if it held any particular context...none that he knew. "No need to wake her up just yet. Keep her quiet, string her up and let her bleed. Soil's getting too dry." Selfishly, John hoped a nice thick drink would soothe the hoarse bellows from below and let him get just a little sleep soon.
Leaving Ari to carry out the instruction John moved to the other end of the oblong room, dried dirt scattering in his wake, to where a less-recognizable body sat slumped in a chair, lengths of rough cord binding it there. "Guess Mr. Paulson didn't make it," was his next observation, slipping a knife from his pocket and beginning to cut the corpse loose. "Give me a hand, would you? Figured we'd put some of him in Luci's garden."
Tumblr media
ari had been in a funny mood lately for reasons that he wasn't examining too closely, but he knew that there were certain things that could hold his focus and distract him from that, so having yet another idiot decide to start poking around to find the complex was a blessing in disguise. it was a good excuse to work through some things, and there was a kind of calm that came from from being in the dark hold beneath the shack, a blade in his hand. being home in the commune always made him breathe easier, but ari thought this was the calm that meditation was supposed to bring you. no rivers for him, only droplets of blood as skin split open.
the sound of footsteps didn't jolt him out of his calm because he knew exactly who it would be and ari didn't look up until addressed, focused instead on the body on the table. "paloma richards, drawn here for the movie premiere and thought it was a good idea to check out all the other noteworthy incidents around town. some people just can't stop yapping about the 'cult in the backyard', so i don't think she'll be the last." ari summed up, picking up and offering a wallet to john as he nudged at paloma's hand with the tip of a knife, a trail of blood snaking along her palm and dripping from her fingers to gather in a bucket below.
"clueless, easy to catch, doesn't seem to know anything interesting. passed out right now, but i'm sure we could wake her up if you have questions." or they could do her the mercy of disposing of her while she was asleep, but rarely were those who made it into the commune treated so kindly. there was a needle with thread nearby and ari would stitch her up just like a rag doll if necessary, make her look just like that character from the movie that didn't know if it was for halloween or christmas.

James Mason REview:Ivanhoe
So I was in the mood to watch the work of actor James Mason and decided to check out one of his later works Ivanhoe
Tumblr media
In this 1982 TV movie King Richard (Julian Glover ) has returned from the CRusades and has teamed up with Robin Hood (DAvid Robb ) to take on three knights who work for Prince John(Ronald Pickup):Sir Reginald Front-de-Boeuf (John Rhyse Davies) who wants to extort Isaac of York (James Mason ),Sir Maurice de Bracy(STuart Wilson ) who wishes to marry Lady Rowena (Lysette Anthony ) and Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert (Sam Niel ) who is in mad lust for ISaacs daughter REbecca(Olivia Hussey )....Oh and there is a guy named Ivanhowe(Anthony Andrews),hes there too
SO I very much enjoy this movie despite it having a big flaw ....IN THAT IVANHOWE IS THE LEAST INTERESTIN?G PART .Oh Anthony Andrews plays him well,and he connects all these threads...He just isnt given enough focus .He is out of commission for most of the movie and honestly....I dont care about his story ,which is about him reconnecting with his father (Played by Michael Hordern )...PArtially cause the father is such a dick I dont care about him either ,cause the movie doesnt care either.The film is far more focused on the stuff around Ivanhowe that he feels like an after thought
That said I do like the movie.....Because the rest of it is so damn good .The action is solid from the jousting scenes to an assault on the villains castle by Richard and Robin Hood to a very eintense sword fight between Ivanhoe and Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert.I also like that the film really focuses on prejudice ,both the feud of the Normans and Saxxons but especially the hatred Isaac and REbecca face for being Jewish
The cast is alll superb (I mean Sam Niel,Stuart Wilson and John Rhyse Davies are the villains how can I not love that),Both George Innes and Tony Haygarth bring levity as Wamba the Fool and Friar Tuck rspectfully ,Michael Hordern is appropriatly pigheaded as Cedric , Wilson and Davies are sinister ,Phillip Locke is scene stealingly evil as the leader of the Knights Templar ,ROnald Pickup is slimey and David Robb is a solid Robin Hood (He also gets the funniest line )
The best performances however go to Julian Glover,James Mason ,Olivia Hussey ,and Sam Niel .Lets Start with Niel who is a solid villain :Arrogant ,obsessive ,creepy and yet there are levels to it ,fighting genuine guilt for his actions .Julian Glover is an actor I associate with bad guys so its fun to see him as a noble king .Olivia Hussey is great as REbecca,on par with Elizabeth Taylors performance in the 1952 film.I think the scene stealer of the movie is James Mason ,Mason while associated with lets say darker parts,had great versitility and when he had the chance could make a very sympathetic characters cause he can make the audience feel his pain
Ovewralll its a fun movie,and I think its on par with the 1952 film

Sir John Gilbert, The Plays of William Shakespeare (1849)
* * *
“Believing as we do in a series of births for the same Ego, or re-incarnation, this distinction is the fundamental pivot of the whole idea. You see ‘Mr. Smith’ really means a long series of daily experiences strung together by the thread of memory, and forming what Mr. Smith calls ‘himself.’ But none of these ‘experiences’ are really the ‘I’ or the Ego, nor do they give ‘Mr. Smith’ the feeling that he is himself, for he forgets the greater part of his daily experiences, and they produce the feeling of Egoity in him only while they last. We Theosophists, therefore, distinguish between this bundle of ‘experiences,’ which we call the false (because so finite and evanescent) personality, and that element in man to which the feeling of ‘I am I’ is due.
It is this ‘I am I’ which we call the true individuality; and we say that this ‘Ego’ or individuality plays, like an actor, many parts on the stage of life. Let us call every new life on earth of the same Ego a night on the stage of a theatre. One night the actor, or ‘Ego,’ appears as ‘Macbeth,’ the next as ‘Shylock,’ the third as ‘Romeo,’ the fourth as ‘Hamlet’ or ‘King Lear,’ and so on, until he has run through the whole cycle of incarnations. The Ego begins his life-pilgrimage as a sprite, an ‘Ariel,’ or a ‘Puck’; he plays the part of a super, is a soldier, a servant, one of the chorus; rises then to ‘speaking parts,’ plays leading roles, interspersed with insignificant parts, till he finally retires from the stage as ‘Prospero,’ the magician.”
— H.P. Blavatsky, The Key to Theosophy

Some important information for kids like me (or anyone) who grew up listening to John Maus’s music. I knew Ariel pink was sus, but him and John Maus are open Trump supporters and were at dc yesterday. In this thread they share video of John Maus pointing and speaking at the trump rally in dc. As someone who loved his music, I think It’s highly dangerous to support artists who get away easily with supporting bigots and predators. The more you know :/

A couple Stygian friends(including @tommyshawawesome1976) and I were discussing which Disney Princess each Styx member would be in a thread on Facebook. We universally chose Tommy Shaw as being Rapunzel, and then I came up with the following(they came up with their own ideas, but equally as interesting):
Gowan: Merida
JY: Aurora
Todd: Snow White
Ricky: Ariel
Chuck: Anna(I originally went with Belle but changed my mind because I forgot about the Frozen princesses)
John: Elsa
Dennis: Evil Queen Cinderella
John C: Esmeralda

I feel like after Halle Bailey got cast as Ariel I saw an influx of anti Disney stuff that I wasn’t seeing before. Like IMMEDIATELY after her casting was announced viral threads about how Disney is milking the nostalgia bubble being corrupt was everywhere. I know it was being discussed but it felt like people were using their dislike of Disney to veil their dislike of her casting. It became about Disney using her for diversity points (which it true too) instead of her, idk, being talented?
You know, that is a really interesting point. I think I know what you’re talking about. Lindsay E/llis’s “Woke Disney” video keeps coming up on my Youtube feed in the sparing moments I actually go on that site. I haven’t watched it because I just can’t deal with her white feminist takes anymore and I also know enough about media studies and her style that I have an idea of the arguments she’ll make in her videos. I’ve also seen people saying that the Ariel movie is going to be subpar lazy rep like the Lion King. Within and outside of Disney fandoms I've been seeing a lot of “progressive” fans using “woke” language to hide the fact that they have no empathy for non-white characters or that they are otherwise problematic. People love to question the casting of John Boyega, Halle Bailey, Zendaya etc, and I’ve seen people say that Black Panther was only successful because everyone wanted to prove how woke they are by going to the movie.
I think it’s completely fair and accurate to say that Disney is invoking the power of nostalgia and desperation for representation to exploit marginalized audiences, but I also think it’s necessary to frame the argument in a pro-diversity way. I feel like a lot of these “I’m so smart and self-aware” takes, more often than not made by white people, have the subtext of “we shouldn’t even try for representation and you’re too dumb to see that Disney is tricking you” when really the subtext should be “we deserve better and we should challenge Disney to deliver consistently good content and incorporate marginalized voices into all parts of the creation process.”

In the Beginning: Part one
Tumblr media
Chapter Summary: Dean is transported back in time and finds that his newfound grandfather may be hiding a secret that is key to Sam and Dean's predicament. While dreaming, he finds a familiar face. Castiel seems to have trouble remembering, and Ariel deals with her time in the Mal'ak box.
Pairing(s): Eventual Dean x Archangel!OFC
Warning(s): Self-loathing, Fluff, Angst, Typical Supernatural violence, Mild Language
A/N: I wasn't sure how to write this one. It isn't one of my favorite episodes, but still, the story is essential. Thanks to everyone who is keeping up with the fic. This episode will have LOTS of Dean x Ariel content, teehee.
Beta'd by Katieartist
Word count: 3,117
      ◇─◇──◇────◇────◇────◇────◇────◇─────◇──◇─◇
"Let. Me. Out!!" Her screech carried through the metal walls and reverberated off the white walls surrounding the box. Ariel kicked at the box with all her energy.
"MICHAEL!" She bellowed, striking the door repeatedly, trying to falter one of the hinges at least. "MICHAEL, YOU SON OF A BITCH!" The red-head roared, pounding incessantly at the door. Each time her fist or foot united with the door, all of heaven wavered.
Michael clenched his jaw with each tremor; there was nothing he could do to stop it but let her out. He of all people knew that he could not do that. He just hoped no one would come with questions and investigate the noise further.
Ariel kept going, hammering away at the door. There was no way she would stay put this time, not when she can avert the apocalypse. An inextinguishable fire burned within her. She huffed, stretching her wings as best she could. They were getting achy, it was hard enough having her knuckles bleeding as well as the heel of her foot, but that didn't deter her. With one last try, Ariel rammed her fist into the thick sheet of metal, hearing a small creak.
Alas, let there be light.
. . .
Dean murmured in his sleep, rolling over onto his back with his leather jacket wrapped around his form.
Sam stood in the mirror, observing his brother from afar. He gently retrieved his jacket and peeped at his brother one more time before leaving for the exit.
Dean rolled over to his side, sweating bullets in his sleep. He subconsciously gripped the comforter below him, desperate for comfort to take him away from his nightmares.
. . .
"Sammy!" Dean bellowed while examining his surroundings and finding himself suspended in the air by hooks. A few in his side and one in his shoulder. He shut his eyes tightly, praying and wishing someone could wake him. Melodious singing filled his ears, drowning out the screams of the damned.
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
And anytime you feel the pain
Hey Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Her voice drifted off once she neared the end of the chorus. Dean squinted, sunlight obstructing his view, but with what he could see in that short moment, he greeted the woman's azure eyes.
The human slowly opened his eyes, shifting on his back foot and dipping his head down so he could ogle at her properly.
Her hair shimmered in the sun, the stray whiskers fluttering in the breeze. She looked unhappy, he could tell. Her eyes were red, and her knuckles bruised as if she repeatedly punched a steel wall—her silk dress torn, exposing more of her cleavage.
"Dean," He heard her whisper in a hoarse voice. Ariel intertwined their fingers and tentatively raised his calloused hand to her tear-stained cheeks.
Could angels emote? Why had she been crying? So many questions raced through Dean's mind, but none came out. All he was able to do was gaze at her intently with wide eyes. Occasionally he would run his tongue over his bottom lip to prevent it from chapping and cracking.
"I need your help..." She breathed as she lifted a delicate hand to his cheek. Her thumb smoothed over the stubble on his chin as she strived to comfort him as well.
Dean winced once her fingers grazed his skin. He wasn't afraid of her; he was scared of what someone like him could do to someone like her. Someone that didn't matter and was toxic for everyone around him, but he couldn't pull away from her. There was this magnetic pull, pushing them together. Nothing felt right if he weren't touching her somehow.
He curled and uncurled his fingers, gradually closing the space between them. His emerald gems darted from her orbs to her lips; they were kissable and swollen plump from her weeping.
Dean eased into Ariel's touch. "Why are you in my dream? What happened to you?"
"I don't know...I was worried." Ariel confessed with fondness in her voice. "I am okay." She lied. Her eyelashes fluttered frantically, trying to blink away the tears that were forming.
"Where are you?" Dean asked as he gingerly wiped away her tears.
"In heaven, locked away. Tell Castiel." Ariel whispered.
"Okay." Dean leaned his forehead on hers, the tips of their noses barely grazing. He studied her eyes with furrowed brows. She inched closer to him, his short breaths brushing her lips. This felt right. It felt needed. Before they could lock lips, Ariel's form flickered and faded away.
. . .
Dean's eyes shot open, his breathing labored. He guided his hands to his eyes, massaging them to help him adjust to reality.
"Hello, Dean." Castiel greeted.
Dean swiftly turned over, marking Castiel sitting leisurely on the other side of the bed.
"And what were you dreaming about?" Cas teased flatly.
Dean rolled his eyes at the comment while sitting up. He didn't know what to say to that. That he was just about to kiss his best friend before he woke up? "Ariel. She needs help." He breathed as he tore his leather jacket off his upper half.
"Who?" Castiel asked, genuinely confused.
"Super Model Archangel, pretty red hair. Kinda is the walking description of the sun." Dean could've unearthed more ways to praise her, but he decided to cut it short once he noticed Castiel's expression.
"What about her? What does she need?" Cas narrowed his eyes.
Dean stretched a brow. "She wanted me to tell you that she is in Heaven, locked away."
The blue-eyed man looked to Dean with uncertainty.
"What did you want? What, do you get your freak on by watching other people sleep? What did you want?" He queried.
The trench-coated angel answered him evasively, "Listen to me. You have to stop it."
Dean scoffed at the ambiguity. "Stop what?"
Cas pressed two fingers to Dean's forehead.
. . .
Sergeant Fowler approached the sleeping man, nudging him with his baton."Move it, buddy- You can't sleep here."
Dean groggily replied, "Okay. Sleep where?" His eyes darted around.
"Anywhere but here." The officer affirmed and carried on his way.
Dean slowly sat up and reached into the inner pocket of his coat, retrieving John's journal and his cellphone. He flipped it open, ready to call Sam, yet there was no signal. He stared at the phone bewildered and instinctively held it up to the sky, searching for a signal. Dean kissed his teeth while snapping the flip phone shut.
"Perfect," He scoffed.
Dean gazed ahead and, just across the street, resided a Jay Bird's Diner. He gathered his things and looked both ways before crossing over to the diner's entrance.
      ◇─◇──◇────◇────◇────◇────◇────◇─────◇──◇─◇
Entering the restaurant was like taking a dip back to earlier times. The Allman Brothers Band's 'Ramblin' Man'  played overhead, giving the restaurant a lovely, classic feeling.
Dean closed the door behind him, eyeing everything dubiously. He noticed a young man who looked about his age, sitting at the counter with a newspaper in hand.
His hair was dark, and he donned a blue plaid shirt with a thin jacket.
The righteous man approached the counter and took a seat directly next to the young man. "Hey, Where the hell am I?" He quizzed.
The young man responded, "Jay Bird's Diner." They made eye contact. His eyes were a hazel-green, similar to Dean's.
Dean looked to his hands, dumbfounded by that obvious response. He returned the man's gaze, "Yeah, thanks. I mean uh...city and state."
The dark-haired man laughed at Dean's behavior. Why was he here if he didn't know where he was? "Lawrence, Kansas."
This city always made Dean's eye twitch. He loathed being in the same town where his mother died. It disturbed him that he was in Lawrence, Kansas, with no cell service or guide. He veered away from the man, "Lawrence." He confirmed in a disconcerted tone.
The gentleman's face wrinkled in confusion, "Are you okay, buddy?" He leaned in expectantly.
The leather-clad hunter brought his hand to his face in exhaustion and confusion. He wasn't sure what to reply with, so he let out a small sigh. "Yeah...tough night."
"Hey, uh, coffee here, Reg." The young man ordered for Dean.
At that moment, the conversation was going nowhere, so the gruff 30-year-old, scoured through his jacket pocket for his cell phone. He snapped it open and leaned over to the man, "Can you tell me where I can get reception on this thing?"
The hazel-eyed man scoffed his reply, The U.S.S. Enterprise."
Dean only raised a brow at the answer; either he was crazy, or the man was mad. Dean thought the latter. Before he could think of a reply, the waiter sat a cup of joe in front of him. "Thanks." He acknowledged while looking up at his waiter.
"Nice threads." Dean commented to the waiter, bringing the steaming cup to his lips. "You know Sonny and Cher broke up, right?" He quipped.
The young man stared at Dean, appalled by his statement, "Sonny and Cher broke up?"
Dean eyed the man for a moment, realizing his question was genuine as if he didn't know. Something clicked in his mind, and he took a look at everyone in the eatery. They were all dressed according to the 70s fashion trends. His eyes filled with panic; he only needed one last thing to confirm his suspicions. He moved his eyes over to the newspaper, still perched up in the young man's hands. The date read, Monday, April 30th, 1973. Dean mouthed the year 1973, eyes wide.
The sound of the diner's door opening and closing filled Dean's ears, but he did not turn around until he heard, "Hey, Winchester."
Surprisingly, both men turned to find the face that called to them. Dean looked at the man expectantly, ready to ask him how did he know him, but the older man just walked around Dean and straight to the young man.
"Son of a bitch! How you doin', Corporal." The man greeted the so-called Winchester, shaking his hand with glee.
Dean stirred in his seat to watch the scene take place. Who was this mysterious Winchester? All Dean could think of was 'Dad?' But that couldn't be possible. No way he was in 1973, sitting next to his father and casually drinking coffee.
"Hey, Mr. D," The other Winchester greeted.
"I heard you were back."
"Yeah, a little while now," Winchester confirmed.
Mr. D smiled at the man, confirming for Dean what he had been wondering all along, "Good to have you home, John, damn good."
Dean gaped at John. Who was this giddy young man before him? No way that could've been John Winchester, saving people, hunting things, the family business- John Winchester. But it was. Dean managed to get out a small, "Dad?"
Mr.D and John continued their conversation, "Well, say hello to your old man for me."
John nodded, "You got it, Mr. D." He returned to his original position before peering over to Dean.
Dean never once took his eyes off his father, watching like an idiot.
"Do we know each other?" He questioned, certainly confused by Dean's staring.
Shit! Dean swallowed hard, eyes wide. 'Say something!' Dean smacked his lips and inhaled sharply before speaking, "I guess not." He sipped his coffee, awkwardly.
John sat for a moment to think it over before getting up from the counter. "Take it easy, pal." He told Dean and strolled over to the door. He shared one last puzzled look with Dean before exiting the diner. John casually walked down the sidewalk with his hands shoved into his jacket pockets. A few feet behind John, Dean, was tailing him.
Dean's mission had something to do with John, but what could that be? His father rounded the corner, and as Dean did, he stopped in his tracks, coming face to face with the angel, Castiel.
Dean grew furious, his breathing becoming shallow, "What is this?" He queried.
"What does it look like?" Castiel replied blankly.
"Is it real?" Dean charged.
"Very."
"Okay, so, what, angels got their hands on some DeLoreans? How did I get here?" Dean appended.
Castiel smacked his lips and looked away from the clueless human. 'This would go much smoother if Ariel were here.' He always thought in these moments. Dean asked too many questions, and it bothered him. "Time is fluid, Dean." Castiel sighed, "It's not easy, but we can bend it on occasion."
"Well, Bend it back. Or tell me what the hell I'm doing here." The hunter demanded.
"I told you. You have to stop it." Castiel put it vaguely, infuriating Dean further.
Dean cross-examined, "Stop what? Huh? What is there something nasty after my dad?" A car horn blared along with tires screeching, stealing Dean's attention away from the angel and allowing Castiel time to 'escape.'
Dean returned his gaze toward the last place Cas had been standing and lifted his arms, "Come on. What, are you allergic to straight answers, you son of a bitch?!" He unobtrusively shouted. The only clue Dean could follow was his father.
He carried on, noticing a large sign Rainbow Motors Car Dealership. He caught a glimpse of a familiar car, and a small smile danced across his face. He hastily made his way over to his future car, admiring her beauty in the spring sun. The boy perched himself against the hood of Baby, waiting for his father to finish his conversation. Dean focused on the ground, deep in thought. Once he saw the car dealer walk away, Dean knew it was his turn to talk.
"That's not that one you want," Dean suggested.
John whipped around and stepped to Dean, "You following me?"
'Yes, I am, but you don't need to know that or why.' Dean thought to himself before actually responding, "No, no, I was just passing by. I never got to thank you for that cup of coffee this morning. I was a little out of it."
"More than a little." John joked with a half-smile.
"Let me repay the favor." Dean pivoted on his heel and knocked on the midnight black '67 impala. "This is the one you want."
John grinned, "Oh yeah? You - You know something about cars?"
Dean gave John a slight nod, starting to disassociate due to the nostalgia. "Yeah...yeah, my Dad taught me everything I know." John nodded his head toward the car, and Dean took that as a hint to continue. "And this- this is a great car."
He placed both hands on the hood longingly before opening it and leaning in. Eager to hear what Dean had to say, John, accompanied him on the side of the car.
"327 four-barrel, 275 horses. A little T.L.C., this thing is cherry." Dean drawled.
"You know, man..." John inspected the car as if he were thinking of someone else, "You're right."
"Then what are you buying that thing for?" The hunter motioned to the microvan.
John slightly shrugged, "I kinda promised someone I would."
"Over a '67 chevy?" Dean questioned while laughing. "I mean, come on. This is the car of a lifetime." He paused, "Trust me, this thing's still gonna be badass when it's 40." The 30-year-old concluded with a knowing nod.
John pulled his lips into a thin line, unsure of what to buy. He fixed his hazel eyes on Dean and smiled. "John Winchester." He greeted as he held out his hand for Dean to shake. "Thanks."
Dean flashed his father his pearly whites and returned the gesture. "Dean Van Halen- and thank you." His eyes lingered on John for a moment before he went to close the hood. All of this was trippy for him. Was he the initial reason John bought the impala? Time travel confused Dean. He gathered that he hated it.
John traced his fingers over the silver trim of Baby's window, leaning into the window to get a feel for the car.
Dean thought of Castiel's words. You need to stop it. It was very questionable, but he knew he had to figure it out on his own. "I was in pretty rough shape this morning, huh?" He chortled.
"No, kidding." John laughed, still admiring Baby's interior design.
The leather-clad hunter resumed, "I've been hungover before, but, hey, I was getting chills in that diner. You didn't feel any of those cold spots, did you?" Dean poked, wondering if maybe a spirit was after him.
"Nope."
Dean continued to pry, "I swore I smelled something weird, too, you know? Like rotten eggs. You didn't happen to smell any sulfur, by chance?"
John arched his brows at Dean's persistence. "No." He chuckled.
Dean grimaced but persisted, "Have there been any cattle mutilations in town?"
John inhaled sharply, obviously disturbed. "Okay, mister, stop it."
Dean shifted on his other foot, staring down at the ground. "Yeah...If only I knew what to stop." He had a scared look in his eyes as he studied the clueless John. "Listen, uh...watch out for yourself, okay?"
The civilian just looked at Dean with a look of utter bewilderment and furrowed brows. Dean was crazy. John decided it was best to just agree with the man, "Yeah. Sure."
. . .
The impala smoothly traveled down the road and pulled over next to a house. In the far distance, a brown car parks on the opposite side of the way. A young blonde woman ran out of the house, ready to greet her boyfriend but noticed the car behind him.
"Hey," John greeted.
"What's this?" The woman stepped around the back of the car with John right behind her.
"My car." He said with a laugh, looking to her face and searching for approval.
"What happened to the van?" The blonde asked, slightly upset.
John could sense her uneasiness, making his way over to her and placing a light hand on the back window. "Mary, This is better than the van! This has got a 327, a four-barrel carburetor."
Dean's eyes widened at the realization of who the blonde woman was. He sat back in his seat, trying to regain any composure he once had as it breathed out a soft, "Mom?"

If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever faceclaim or whichever project you desire.
Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags, @ mention us or send us a messaging linking us to your post!
THE TASK - scroll down for FC’s!
STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!
STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!
STEP 3: Look back on tasks that we have created previously for tutorials on the thing you are creating unless you have whatever it is you are doing mastered - then of course feel free to just get on and do it. :)
STEP 4: Upload and tag with #TASKSWEEKLY! If you didn’t use your own screencaps/images make sure to credit where you got them from as we will not reblog packs which do not credit caps or original gifs from the original maker.
