#NO HURT

[youchangedmedestiel]

Warm and soft skin

(You can also find this ficlet below on AO3)

Every once and a while, when Dean comes back from a bad hunt or when Cas is struggling with his brothers and sisters, they do it. Sometimes it’s just because they want to – need to – because they seek for warm, comforting and tender touches. Some other times it’s just about being, being together, being happy and being there for each other.

Today, Dean asks for it. Not for any particular reason, he just wanted to, because it’s been too long since last time in his opinion. So, he approaches Cas in the kitchen. The angel is drying the clean dishes when Dean presses himself against his back, his arms wrapped around him and his face buried into the crook of his neck.

“I need you, Cas.” Dean whispers, his lips brushing at Cas’s soft skin just below his ear. And Cas understands instantly what Dean means. This has been their way to ask for it since the first day it happened. And it occurred so naturally.

Cas puts the plate and the cloth he had in his hands down on the kitchen counter and turns around. Dean lets him, barely moving away and slightly opening his arms, he closes them back around Cas’s waist as soon as he faces him.

The angel kisses his lips softly as he reaches for Dean’s arms surrounding him. He disentangles them and takes Dean’s hand in his. He pulls him out of the kitchen towards Dean’s room. He opens the door and makes sure they both entered fully before closing it behind them.  

Cas lets Dean’s hand fall from his, he knows they’ll touch again soon. Plus they need it to fully undress. Dean is naked first since Cas has a lot more layers to get rid of. He slides in the bed under the covers, waiting for Cas. The angel takes off his boxer briefs and drops them on the floor with the rest of their clothes as he walks towards the bed.

He settles next to Dean under the covers. He doesn’t have the time to lie back properly that Dean is already shifting closer. Cas smiles and faces the man beside him. He gets closer too, taking Dean into his arms, feeling the warm of his soft skin against his own.

He also perceives his heartbeat against his chest. He slides one arm under Dean’s head and lets his fingers tangling with his soft little hairs at the back of his neck. He knows Dean love when his nails scrap his scalp so he starts doing it while his other arm goes for Dean’s back. He flexes it to press Dean’s body closer to his. Then his hand travels up and down the strong muscles of Dean’s back. It’s soothing, warm and soft and this is all Dean wanted. His left arm is folded between them with his hand resting flat against Cas’s bare chest, his face buried under his chin, and his right hand on Cas’s hip while his thumb is stroking the soft skin there.

From time to time, Cas kisses his forehead, his hand grabs Dean’s shoulder, and presses him closer tightly, or his other hand strokes Dean's butt cheeks. There is no sexual undertone to their naked cuddles. There never was. Because this is not about that. This is about touch, skin-to-skin contact.

For Dean, it’s especially about feeling Cas there with him after losing him so many times. And for Cas, it’s about being asked and being able to do this, to see Dean this vulnerable. He is even more vulnerable that way than when they have sex. This is pure intimacy, this is one of their ways to show their love to the other. And those tender touches happen whenever one of them needs it. It can last two minutes like it can two hours. The one asking for this is the one who chooses how long he needs to feel the other’s warm and soft skin against his own.

Love and other games

"Do you believe in love?"

"Why?"

"No reason, I was just wondering"

"Cissa," Andromeda sighs as she tugs on the braid in her younger sister's heair that she's currently redoing. "You know it's not that easy."

"Well. just because it's not easy, doesn't mean you don't believe in it." The younger girl answers. Her jaw is set, and Andromeda feels her heart give a violent tug. If only she could keep her baby sister safe from the harsh reality.

"I believe I'm supposed to marry someone who's right for me. If love is part of that marriage, then that would be nice. But it's not a requirement. You know that."

"I'm gonna marry the person I love. No matter what mother and father try to tell me."

"You do that, flower. You do just that, I'll fully support you."

Person A: - Look, it's a fluff! When i was a kid, I heard, that if you catch one, make a wish and let it go, than your wish will definitely come true.

Person B: - Yeah, I heard about that too. However, I've never been able to catch a single fluff.

Person A: - Really? You should totally catch this one then!

Person B: - No, I'm fine with that.

Person A: *goes to catch the fluff, then returns back to person B and gives it to them*

Person B: - Wha... why? You caught it, it's yours.

Person A: - Take it, afterall it's you, who've never had fluff-wishes. What about me... I don't have anything to wish for. I've already got everything i need to be happy (they mean person B).

Person B: *finally takes the fluff, makes their wish, then releases it*

Person A: - So what's your wish?

Person B: Why are you asking that? I cant' tell you, jtherwise it won't come true. And I can't take that risk.

Person A: - Okay, whatever...

Person B: *actually they wished that person A will always have everything they need to be happy*

Happy birthday Leona kingscholar.

(Sooo I sadly didn't get the lion boy's b-day card, so in order to get rid of the immense sadness I feel right now (currently I cried when I didn't get him, I got terribly anxious morning so yeah, not being able to get him seriously soured my mood) I am gonna make a thing for him and Song being sweet to one another so um... Yeah, hope no one minds, and for those who managed to roll for the birthday boy in the English version or japanese version or both? I congratulate you all for having the best damn luck in the universe. XD Small spoilers his birthday boy card story for those who have not read it yet! You have been warned!)

“Happy birthday Leona-senpai!”  It was the same thing Leona heard from his dorm members and already he was getting tired from all the noise. He’s especially was tired after dealing with that dang interview with all the questions about his family and what not. When he finally had a chance to escape he exit the dorm and had gone to the botanical garden in hopes of finding a good spot to nap, but when he arrived to the spot he usually sleeps in, he was surprise to see a mop of familiar purple color hair with a streak of white going down her bangs that hide her left eye being unmistakable to Leona, who knew excatly who decided to wander into one of his territory.  “What are you doing here Herbivore?” “WHA?! Oh, great seven, it’s just you Leona...!” Song let out, a sigh escaping her lips as she smiled a little at the lion, though Leona could smell the sudden fear and nervousness in her eyes and noticed she was trying to hide something behind her back. Which peaked the lion’s curiosity and held back the urge to show a smirk. So the Herbivore really did decide to get him a present like he said, eh? Cute. “U-Um, w-what are you doing here?” She suddenly asks, snapping the lion out of his thoughts for a moment. “This is my napping spot obliviously.” The lion said frowning at the purplnette. “Why would it be weird that I wouldn’t be here?” He asked her.  “W-Well... Shouldn’t you be celebrating your birthday at your dorm?” The girl asked tilting her head.   “Everyone was being too noisy and wouldn’t leave me alone. I got tired of it and thought I could go and take a good nap,” The lion spoke as he stauntered closer towards the girl, and his smirk widens seeing the girl freeze like a scared animal when she noticed the predatory look in his eyes. “And what do I find in my territory?” “AH!” The lion therianthrope tackled her down to the ground, Leona’s smirk growing more wider by the minute seeing the shocked and stunned look on the girl’s face when he saw how close his own face was to the point that their nose were close to touching one another. “I find a innocent looking herbivore messing around with something...” Leona said, smirking as he saw now what was behind her back as they were now all scattered on the green grass. It was meant to be a boquet of purple petunias and yellow sunflowers, but now they are all scattered to the floor and probably ruined. The lion huffed at the sight of them as he looked back down at his prey he kept under him.  “You know I don’t have a thing for flowers right?” He asked sighing as he closed his eyes shaking his head a bit, yet a smile of amusement was on his face as he sees the look of a pout on her face.  “Hey! Those were the only things I could think of giving you!” Song said sighing as she looked away, blushing a dark shade of red. “I-I didn’t know what else to give you for your birthday... I know you probably wouldn’t want anything special so... I thought flowers would be natural... T-Then again, you probably don’t like the strong smell of them do you?” She asked, looking at the lion nervously, and for a moment his gaze softens at the sight of her pure white eye staring back into his summer green eyes, searching through his as if concerned she might have screwed up completely, which made him sigh. “You dumb Herbivore... I would have been fine with the flowers, but... Just as long as you didn’t put in too many of them.” Leona said looking at her and smirks a bit as he flicked her forehead gently with his fingers, making her let out a whine and use a free hand to rub her head. “I’d probably end up sneezing all over the place.” “Yeah sure, like you have an allergic reaction to flowers.” She slightly sassed, making the lion chuckle at the pout on her face as she slightly glared at him. He loved getting her like this, all pouty and sassy, it made her look cute, and it amused him greatly as she felt her try to push him off her. “Get off.” “How about no?” “Why?!”  “Because your comfy~” Song stared at the lion in disbelief, making Leona chuckle as he lays down on her and pulled her close against his chest, making her rest her head on an arm as he kept the other wrapped around his waist, moving his head he buried his face into her hair and closes his eyes and takes in a deep breath. “You smell like flowers.” Leona mumbled tiredly, making him hear Song sigh as if giving in, but he smirked seeing the nervously look on her blushing face and moved her close, keeping his free arm wrapped around her waist while whispering into his ear. “No one’s gonna care seeing us like this, just ignore anyone that comes past.” Leona whispered, smirking as he felt her shiver much to his delight, he could feel his tail swish side to side slowly in amusement seeing the ramshackle perfect so flustered. “You're fine with being my afternoon pillow right? It’s just the usual and all that. No need to get so frazzled.” “B-But e-everyone’s gonna wonder where you are.” Song said to him. “Ruggie will find us once he sees I’m gone. So shut up and be a good pillow for me.” Leona said, his smile fading back to his grumpy look before closing his eyes and nuzzles her head. “....By the way, what shampoo did you use in your hair?” “Eh? Why ask?”  “Just answer me pillow.” “...P-Petunias... I like them.” Song said looking away from Leona, making the lion smirk slightly and using his hand to play with her short hair as he hears her talk. “...And since you usually like the smell too I figured giving you a small bouquet with them would be good.” She tells him, starting to become sleepy from the warmth he provides in addition to him calmly playing with her hair. “What about the sunflowers?” Leona said softly, his eyes half lidded as he starts feeling tired as well the more they talk in soft tones. “What about them?” “...They remind me of you...” Song mumbled, surprising Leona a bit when she said that. “Eh? What do you..” “You have pretty eyes... Ones that shine bright and powerful as the sun’s light. So... I wanted to pick that flower for that reason. Because a king like you in Savanaclaw deserves to be able to shine just as much.” Song said, closing her white eye gently as she sighs softly. “I hope you don’t mind.” Leona stared at the girl silently, thinking for just a moment on her words and what she just told him. ‘As bright as the sun huh..?’ Leona thinks before he closed his eyes once more and buries his face into her hair once more. “...I’ll help you fix the bouquet later.”  “...Kay...” Song mumbled and with that, the lion heard her soft breathing, indicating she was fast asleep.  Once asleep, Leona continued to play with her hair, staring at her face for a long moment before smiling a little as he shut his eyes as well and rested his forehead against hers.  “You really are a weird Herbivore. But... At least that’s what I like about you, I guess.” Leona tells her as he soon falls asleep as well.

this is cute but also i like to think the pope has to preface every single statement with "this isn't dogma but" like he has to break character for a sec and clarify that he's not speaking ex cathedra

how to explain to non-americans that the better call saul ads aren’t exaggerated for comedic effect they are super normie

Every time I see that G--gle phone photoshop commercial my heart is filled with infinite sadness, like, yeah it's cool you can have a good family photo, it's cool you can do that, but god, there is something to be said for the honesty of a family photo where you're blinking, or crying, or have ugly wrinkles.

What is too unsightly for you? Would you swipe-click-replace out the image of my cousin crying on our Florida trip family reunion photo? Would you remove the plastic snake I have clenched in my grip, which I still have to this day? Would you scoff at the wrinkles around our eyes and the strands of hair on our faces as we squint into the wind, the day before the massive storm? Would I remember it if I didn't have these reminders, if the picture was perfect and clean, all children in a row with perfect gleaming white tombstone tooth smiles? No tears. No plastic snake.

Everyone is beautiful and no one looks genuine.

My blog has become infested with angst goblins, and they must be fed with some hypothetical scenarios!🙏💚

No single line has ever wrecked me as hard as this one from the Good Place and I think about it constantly

[jjunhui]

gaza has just been completely cut off from the world.

after increased intensity of israeli aistrikes tonight, the last cable providing communications was destroyed. telecommunications have been completely cut off. they cannot reach one another. they cannot reach paramedics. the red crescent society has completely lost contact with their branch in gaza. nobody inside can reach anyone inside, and especially not outside of gaza to tell us what is going on. this is a complete atrocity.

Guys I’m going to be so bare naked ass honest with you we had a house fire tonight and I was standing in the kitchen with the flaming stove reading the Wikipedia page for fire

lead balloon (the tumblr post that saved me)

if this comic resonated with you, it would mean the world to me if you donated to this palestinian family's escape fund.

--

no creative notes because this isn't that kind of comic.

I know I don’t owe any of you anything but I still felt compelled to write about my long term absence. And I feel far enough away from the dangerous spot I was in to be able to make this comic. I have a therapist now, and she agreed that making this could be a very cathartic gesture, and the start of properly leaving these thoughts behind me. I am still, at seemingly random times, blindsided by fleeting desires to kill myself. They’re always passing urges, but it’s disarming, and uncomfortable. I worry sometimes that my brain’s spent so long thinking only about suicide that it’s forgotten how to think about anything else. Like, now that I've opened that door for myself, I'll never be able to fully shut it again. But I’m trying my best to encourage my mind in other directions. We'll see how that goes.

I am still donating all proceeds from my store to Palestinian causes. So far, I've donated over $15K, not including donations coming from my own pocket or the fundraising streams which jointly raised around $10K. In the time since I made my initial post about where this money would be going, the focus has shifted from aid organisations to directly donating to escape funds.

If you'd like to do the same, you can look at Operation Olive Branch, which hosts hundreds of Palestinian escape funds or donate to Safebow, which has helped facilitate the safe crossing and securing of important medical procedures for over 150 at-risk palestinians since the beginning of the genocide.
