I did it and, to my surprise, I survived. All the peeps that work at that pharmacy seem pretty nice and it was overall a very welcoming atmosphere. To my knowledge, there is someone who was trained there and was hired at the end of her training so there is hope that it might be my case too! For 6 hours no less, didn't even know that was a thing—

okay but you see sam has ALSO fallen for dean's act. sam also believes dean to be the macho, daddy's soldier, beer boobs cars guy he presents himself as. this is why sam makes fun of dean whenever he even lightly steps out of that mold and thinks it's harmless banter instead of attacking an insecurity. it's why he laughs when john talks down to dean in the early seasons and it's why he seems surprised when dean is more comfortable with himself in the later seasons. it's why he just scoffs but doesn't push it when dean puts up a front and refuses to talk about his emotions and just accepts whatever excuse he makes at face value. it's why he offers dean a strip club to make him feel better when cas dies. and this isn't his fault!! dean has spent a very long time perfecting this image in front of everyone and ESPECIALLY to sam because along with it comes safety and security and stability and the only person. who has consistently been able to see through it. is castiel

THIRTY-ONE DAYS OF GHOST ⛧ DAY ONE
first song you heard — Mary On A Cross
September 1969; Papa Nihil and the beginning of the Ghost Project take to the stage at the Whiskey a Go Go club in Los Angeles, under the watchful eye of Sister Imperator. Fifty-three years later, in Tampa, Florida, Papa Emeritus the Fourth performs Mary On A Cross, unaware that he is singing the story of his parents—and that of himself.

hey so putting in the work to unmask is actually kinda worth it*, who knew??
i was just at the grocery store with my girlfriend, in total space cadet mode** just following her around and carrying the wire basket while she picked out produce. basically, my ideal grocery store experience.
but then
we're standing in front of one of those produce cases that has those water misters to keep the veg fresh. she picks out a bundle of green onions and goes to put them in the basket, but then immediately pulls it back out? and before i can say anything, she's grabbing one of the plastic produce bags and wrapping the green onions in it while explaining, "I was just going to toss it in, but then I realized it would drip and your feet would get drops of water on them***, and I know you would hate that."
and then she just moves on and goes back to picking out more produce as if she DIDN'T just make me feel the most seen and cared for in an environment that is already incredibly overstimulating???
if i wasn't already madly obsessed and in love with her, that woulda been the moment.
*when safe to do so, obviously
**read: lost in my head, a lil stoned with my noise filtering ear plugs in
***i was wearing sandals b/c it was 100 degrees outside lmao

kiryuu sibling stasis post-32 is so interesting to me. nanami tries to leave and is (temporarily but also, crucially, violently) prevented from doing so by touga and akio. after this experience she puts distance between herself and them: she leaves touga’s phone in the car, she resigns from the student council (though she dons her old uniform still), she repeatedly dismisses and undermines the authority of the rose code, of end of the world, of akio, of touga. but she’s still in ohtori, isn’t she? uncomfortable with the idea of leaving, uncertain if it’s really possible. she tried before, and it hurt her. deeply. it’s so interesting to me, nanami’s agency and how she limits her exertion of it after 32, when she realises it for what it is. contrast that with touga, who accepts this weird stalemate between them, who is, really, uninterested in having any relationship of any kind with nanami if he can’t gain something from her. he’s very passive with her after 32, compared to the passivity he’d always feigned towards her before in order to stoke reactions from her and then exploit them. i was thinking about how touga has always been able to sever his relationship with nanami, but chosen not to; first out of a sense of obligation (‘we should live to help each other’) then a realisation of how that could be exploited. i was thinking about how nanami has never realised her ability to leave, in part because it is limited by touga and the harm he does her. i was thinking about the desperation and confusion akio calls out to anthy with as she leaves. i was thinking about how different that is to the kiryuus’ strange semi-breakdown; touga doesn’t want or need nanami, and nanami might love her brother but she cannot trust him or feel safe around him, doesn’t want to see him anymore; she’s itching to leave, and just a little scared (you know, because last time she tried that her brother assaulted her), and he’s not doing anything because ignoring her means he doesn’t have to deal with the emotions of her leaving or staying. something something gendered power dynamics something something tragic siblings
