Unless I’m Allowed Dessert

Tom “Redfly” Davis x Reader

Summary:

You made one comment, ONE, that your friend’s relator was attractive in that rugged-military-man kind of way and now she drags your to every house showing she has with him. The first couple of times you gazed from afar, mostly because he was working. Your friend always tries to push you to start a conversation, or better yet ask for his number. And you can never seem to get the words out. So the next house she buys, she ditches you at the scene. Leaving you and one Tom Davis alone.

Warnings: Smut (p in v, fingering, car sex), age gap

“So what’s on the agenda for today?” You ask, staring out the passenger window. Suddenly you’re thrown forward, looking up to see the light turned red.

“I need you to help me make a final decision on this house. Jerry’s... caught in a meeting.” Stacy lazy replies, fluffing her hair in the mirror.

“So he’s being a dick again?” You raise your eyebrows at her. She rolls her eyes and huffs dramatically, looking over at you.

“Yes. But we are still in agreement to buy this house.” The light turns green and she floors the gas pedal of her fancy Mercedes, barely making the next light. You don’t prompt for more information, and she doesn’t elaborate.

“Ok… So what house is this one? And why did we need to carpool?” You move back to the topic at hand. She perks up at the thought of her new house.

“ The one on Cherry Street. It’s in a cute little housing track, old as dirt but the yards are much bigger than anything else I’ve seen in ages. Tom says they’re asking too much for this property anyways so we could get it for a steal! And I mentioned you we’re coming with, he seemed to perk up at that.”

“I highly doubt he remembers me. Anyways, what are your design plans for this house?“

And that’s all it takes for her to start talking about her future design plans for the new property and not about trying to set you up with Tom... again.

She whips into the driveway of a three story corner lot house. It definitely needs paint and a good refresh on the landscaping, but otherwise it’s one of the nicer houses she’s bought.

“Good call on the outfit, and the hair. He’ll definitely notice.” She comments as she steps out of her car. You frown, confused that she would comment on your outfit. It’s just a plain white tee, cut a little lower than average, and a pair of light denim shorts. And the curls in your hair are left over from your work function yesterday and held in with dry shampoo.

“Yoo-hoo!” Stacy hollers as she opens the front door. There’s a bang and a ooff! You can smell cookies, and it makes you wish Stacy had taken you to lunch first.

“Hey Mrs. Ruth, I was just putting some cookies in.” He half smiles, the bags under his eyes matching the dark stubble along his jaw.

“Good for you dear, now let’s begin the tour shall we?”

Tom shows both of you around the house, the style is classic, with too many bedrooms that Stacy will never use but will decorate the crap out of. Tom doesn’t seem very enthusiastic about selling homes but he’s nice, giving us details that you imagine most people would steer away from.

Toms in the middle of explaining that the laundry room should probably be gutted when Stacy’s phone rings.

“What Jerry? No, that’s for the Hayworth family. The one you’re asking for…” she makes her way into the one acre backyard looking like she could strangle her husband through the phone. You and Tom stare at her for a moment, not sure if one of you should go out there and calm her down.

ding!

You both turn toward the kitchen, Tom taking a few strides to the oven, taking out a tray of your favorite cookies. You slide onto one of the bar stools that’s opposite of him.

“So do you think they’ll buy it?” He mumbles before putting a whole cookie on his mouth. He extends the tray to you.

“Oh ya. Stacy can spend everyday designing and shopping with a new house. Plus Jerry will be a bit happier since it’s a tad closer to his job.” You take a cookie, both munching and silently observing each other. His beard is starting to go a little wild, his face is tan to match his muscular biceps (which don’t really seem to get along with his polo sleeves).

“And why are you here?” He asks in between cookies. Don’t get him wrong, he doesn’t mind one bit that you’re here. You’re nothing like Mrs. Ruth; you’re kind, quiet and when you smile the room gets brighter. And you’re sexy as hell, not one thing about you says self-conscious; you wear those little shorts with a low cut top and it drives him up the wall. But he’s recently divorced, you’re a good deal younger... last thing you need is some old guy hitting on you.

“I have the day off and nothing to do. Stacy pulled up to my apartment, said get in the car and so I did.” You shrug, smiling at him. He smiles back, putting another cookie in his mouth. “What made you want to sell houses?” you ask, leaning towards him. He presses his lips together before answering, trying to not look at your tits.

“Want is not the word I would use, but it pays the bills.” He leans on the counter towards you, his eyes gently scanning your face. You lean a little closer, like a little invisible string pulling your face closer to his. His eyes are a bit sad, but somewhere underneath there’s a flicker of fire. If you leaned a little further...

Your phone starts ringing. You sigh and sit back onto the stool.

“Stacy why-”

“Had to run, work emergency with the company potluck, let’s meet up when I sign for the house!” And she hangs up. You glance out to the backyard and see she is no longer pacing the patio.

“She ditched me…” You frown. Your phone dings and you lean on the counter to look at it.

Stacy: Now stop drooling and make a move!

“Hey Tom…” You turn, almost bumping heads with him.

“Hmm…” He gives you a little crooked smile, he never noticed you have very faint freckles across your nose...

“Mind if I hitch a ride with you?” You flash him a smile.

“Sure, where to?” He clears his throat, turning his attention to the mess he’s made.

“Don’t go out of your way, I live on the southside of town. In the Salt Water Apartments.”

“I can drop you off at home, no problem. Let me just shut everything off and we’ll head out.”

You help Tom throw his collection of yard signs into the back of his giant ass truck and launch yourself into the front seat. He starts the truck, habitually rolling the windows down.

“So does she always ditch you or...” He turns to the back of the car, resting his hand on the shoulder of your seat as he backs his truck out.

“Not normally, but it’s also very rare that we actually ride together. We normally just meet up.” He hums in acknowledgement. “Do you normally give rides to strangers?”

“Only if they’re as beautiful and small as Tinker Bell.” He wiggles his eyebrows at you and laughs. You roll your eyes, huffing in amusement, you may be short but nowhere as dainty as Tink. You both go silent, the radio barely audible over the wind from the windows.

“What apartment block?”

“Take the first right and the second left.” He slows to a stop and turns the car off.

“Thanks for the ride...” You softly say, putting your hand on the door but not wanting to open it.

“Ya, anytime” he half smiles. You smile back, turning to the door.

“Would you like to get dinner later?” He blurts.

“I would love to.” You answer eagerly.

“Pick you up here at 6:30?”

“Yes.” You nod, quickly opening the door all the way and sliding out, trying not to show the smile that goes from ear to ear.

When the door slams shut, Tom watches you let yourself into your apartment, letting a big goofy grin appear on his face for the first time in a long time.

_______

It’s 6:24 according to the clock on your nightstand. You quickly pat a little bit of lipstick on and head out to the corner to meet Tom. If you fuss over your outfit any longer you’ll go insane. You threw on a cute red ruffle dress that some may say is too short and revealing but what do they fuckin know anyways.

You hop down the stairs and see Tom standing on the corner with his hands in his pockets. He’s rocking back and forth on his heels looking at the beautiful Florida sunset. He changed into a navy button down shirt, the sleeves rolled up to show off his macular forearms, and a pair of medium wash denim that hug his ass really nice.

“Hey Tom!” You sing song, lightly putting your hand on his upper arm.

“Hey,” he pauses, his eyes moving slowly over every curve of your body. He figures since it’s a date he can do that freely and slowly. He sees you bite your lip, confused on why you would ever be self-conscious. He tentatively wraps his arms around your waist, and you automatically move your hands up his biceps. “You look beautiful.” He remarks, moving his arms tighter around your waist, a smile plastered on his face. He guides you to the truck and helps you in.

“Interesting choice” You remark, looking at the Crazy Mama’s Mexican Food sign.

“Have you been?”

“No, but you’re lucky I’ll try any Mexican restaurant.” You smile at him. He huffs in amusement and walks around to your side to open the door.

First step in and it’s like your eyes have been assaulted and dazzled. The ceiling is just a mass of Mexican themed fairy lights. Their combined glow gives the restaurant a dark atmosphere. The mariachi music is slow and romantic coming from the live band on the left side of the restaurant.

“Ah Señor Tom! Back again are we?” An older man cries out, slapping Tom on the shoulder.

“Sí Señor Cuz.” Tom replies, pursing his lips in embarrassment.

“And I see we’ve brought a guest!” Cruz gestures to you.

“And a beautiful one at that!” A woman moves her hand across your shoulders and steps next to Cruz, giving him a peck on the cheek.

“Uh, ya, table for two.” Tom mumbles. They lead you to a small table in the corner furthest from the band.

“We’ll give you a few minutes alone…” Cruz says, as he sets a pair of menus on the table.

“You do look very beautiful tonight (Y/N).”

You look up from your menu, his goofy smile back..

“Thank you Tom. You clean up pretty good yourself.” You bite your lip. You noticed he trimmed his beard and ironed the navy blue button down he’s wearing.

After staring at each other you both quickly turn your attention to the menus for a few minutes. A server takes your order, quickly coming back with a beer and a glass of wine. You raise your eyebrow at Tom and he shrugs in reply.

“Compliments of Señor Cruz.” The server nods towards the bar. You both pick up your glasses and salute in thanks.

“So anything exciting in the world of real estate today?” You ask as you take a sip of wine.

“I don’t think there's ever anything exciting.” He laughs.

You talk all through dinner, learning a little about Tom's military past and he lets you drag on about your job at the state university. Dinner is beyond words, and when the check comes it simple says

Enjoy all the moments together!

You both smile and head out to the car. It’s sprinkling ever so lightly, the smell of fresh rain in the air. You stand in the middle of the parking lot, face to the sky as the rain sprinkles across your face.

Tom shakes his head at you, amazed that someone could be so carefree and in the moment. He looks up to the sky, he’s had mixed feelings about the rain; sometimes it’s welcomed after being in a desert for a week, and other times it just muddies everything. He turns to you, lightly putting his hand on your back to get you into the car before it starts pouring.

“I love the rain” You whisper into the window. The beads of water steadily roll down faster as Tom pulls out of the parking lot.

“We can drive for a bit.” He replies, making a turn away from your apartment. The city lights stretch out further and further as you head away from the sleepy little city. You turn toward Tom, bringing your knees closer to your chest. His expression is calm, only the occasional flash of sadness can be seen as car headlights intrude on your drive. You let your gaze wander over his body. He’s very muscular, big burly arms and strong broad shoulders. You imagine there’s abs underneath his shirt but they’ve been hidden by just a small layer of fat that makes you want to bury yourself against him. His legs are so long he has his seat pushed all the way back, leaving the perfect amount of space for you to straddle him if you wanted…

“Enjoying the view?” He flicks his eyes to you.

“Very much.” You smile. He pulls into a little side street near a strip of stores that’s normally abuzz with people. Tonight it looks like the rain has everyone staying inside. The glow from the sidewalk lights illuminate the cab just enough that you can make out his face. He turns off the truck and the pitter-patter of rain mingles with the sound of your breathing. You scoot into the middle seat, wanting to feel him close.

He turns toward you, one arm laying on the back of the seat while the other tilts your chin up. He brings your mouth to his, your lips brushing lightly. Your heart is hammering inside your chest so fast he might hear it. So you press your lips harder against his; his beard tickles your face and that’ll burn later but right now you need his hands on your body.

You move to your knees, pressing forward into him. Following your lead he moves just enough for you to hook your right leg over his lap. His hands settle on the small of your back, his tongue sliding over your bottom lip. You open your mouth to let his tongue tangle with your own. His hands begin to explore your body, his fingers dancing around the edge of your dress sending a shiver down your spine.

He smiles, moving his lips down your neck, slowly sucking every inch until he finds the perfect spot.

“Oh Tommy…” You exhale. He groans in reply, the vibrations multiplying throughout your body.

His fingers begin playing with the hem of your panties, and he thanks god that you didn’t wear anything else under your dress. He pushes one finger between your folds, already amazed at how wet you are for him.

“All for me?” He whispers into your ear as he slides one large finger inside you. You gasp, his finger reaching places only toys have ever reached. He brings your mouth back to his, gently pumping his finger in and out of you.

But the small friction isn’t enough, you want more and he seems to be reading your mind because one more finger slides in. You push back from him, shocked at the feeling of him stretching you so perfectly. You start rolling your hips, fucking his fingers purely for your pleasure. Your eyes close, all concentration is on his fingers curling and sliding inside you.

He hasn’t been this turned on from watching someone pleasure themselves in a very long time. It doesn’t even matter that he’s not getting himself off, this is about watching you fall apart for him. He quickly moves his mouth back to your neck, sucking harder and leaving no spot untouched. He moves his thumb to your clit, the build of your orgasm rocketing through you. You throw your head back, fucking his fingers faster until you completely come undone. Your orgasm rips through your body so hot you lean your head into the crook of his neck, arms loosely draping over his shoulders as you ride his fingers to get every ounce of pleasure. As your hips slow to a stop he removes his fingers, your cunt still clenching around what’s no longer there.

“That was the hottest thing I think I’ve ever seen.” He whispers into your hair; you lean back to so he can see you roll your eyes-

BEEP!

You both jump at the noise of the big ass truck horn.

“Guess I can’t be too sexy for long, leaves the world unbalanced.” You breathe out a laugh.

“You’re always too sexy.” He hums, his fingers massaging your thighs.

“I think it might be your turn, Redfly.” You whisper in his ear, rubbing his hard on through his jeans.

“You are naughty (Y/N).” He leans his seat back, putting his hands behind his head. You smile as you slide your panties off, it’s truly adorable he think’s his hands will stay there. You spring his cock free, the head red and ready for you. You pump him with one hand, unbuttoning your dress with the other. Tom’s smirk quickly disappears as he realizes what you’re doing.

He sits up a little, taking the front of your dress from your hands and unbuttoning the rest. You tits bounce free, Tom’s eyes gleaming at the site.

“You shirt too Tommy.“ You purr, your free hand trailing down his chest. He makes quick work of the buttons as you slip a condom on him. He tries to sit up a bit in order to take his shirt fully off but you lower yourself onto him and he falls back into the seat. He grips your thighs, you’re so tight and wet his brain short circuits.

You smile, moving his hands to your breasts, showing him how you like to be played with. And then you start bouncing, his dick throbbing at the site of all of you jiggling as you impale yourself over and over.

And your pretty little mouth is wide open, every noise like music to his ears. He sits up, bringing your open mouth to his, your tongues dancing until his mind wanders back to your tits. And his mouth follows, taking one nipple into his mouth, sucking and licking each one in turn.

He knows he won’t last much longer, not with you feeling this good and looking that fucking sexy. He slots a hand between your bodies, his finger finding your swollen clit. And he rubs fast, making you double over from the stimulation. Your mouths find each other again as he pushes you over the edge.

You let out a small fuck as your walls flutter around him. And he let’s go, spilling into the condom as you ride out your high on top of him.

After a few minutes you pull him out of you, letting him take care of the condom as you lay down on the seat. You’re trying to desperately catch your breath when he looks over at you. Your legs are spread for him to see your juices spilling from you; your dress open like a robe, tits out in the open and nipples erect.

“Unless I’m allowed desert, close your legs“ He laughs, tucking himself back in his pants.

“If you’re hungry you’re more than welcome Tommy.” You sass, spreading your pussy lips for him.

He looks up towards the sky, thanking whatever brought you into his life; and then back at you, sprawled and ready with the sweetest treat, just for him.

18) “We all had our connections, but it’s not the details themselves that matter, it’s the feeling behind them. There are a million coming-of-age tales. Lady Bird’s secret sauce is how deeply its creator gave a shit. The older I get, the less I care about anything but the sense of a filmmaker’s personal connection to the material. It doesn’t matter what it’s about, what genre it is, or whether it’s genre at all. I only really care that it feels like something the filmmaker had to tell me, and that it was that filmmaker in particular who had to tell it. It has to answer the ‘why are you telling me this’ question, and not just why are you telling me, but why are you telling me.

Lady Bird is a movie that feels like only Greta Gerwig could’ve made. And it’s only because it’s so specific to her that it can be so meaningful to so many people.” - Vince Mancini

It yanks you out of your body and your mind and throws you against the wall. I have the feeling that drinking is a form of suicide where you're allowed to return to life and begin all over the next day. It's like killing yourself, and then you're reborn. I guess I've lived about ten or fifteen thousand lives now.” - Charles Bukowski

22) “You shouldn’t have to hear a band to know if they’re good or not” - Josiah Hughes

23) “I was raised by OGs. Some of you were raised by IG. I understand.” - Ice-T

* * *

[Here is where I note the line of demarcation that was the COVID-19 pandemic hitting the US, pushed forward by Tom Hanks’ announcement, the NBA and NCAA shutting down, and, then, the nation itself.]

* * *

24) “There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen.” - Vladimir Lenin

25) "Taken together, this is a massive failure in leadership that stems from a massive defect in character. Trump is such a habitual liar that he is incapable of being honest, even when being honest would serve his interests. He is so impulsive, shortsighted, and undisciplined that he is unable to plan or even think beyond the moment. He is such a divisive and polarizing figure that he long ago lost the ability to unite the nation under any circumstances and for any cause. And he is so narcissistic and unreflective that he is completely incapable of learning from his mistakes. The president’s disordered personality makes him as ill-equipped to deal with a crisis as any president has ever been. With few exceptions, what Trump has said is not just useless; it is downright injurious." - Peter Wehner

26) "Epidemics have a way of revealing underlying truths about the societies they impact." - Anne Applebaum

One afternoon, he’s the soundtrack as you clean the garage. On another night, he’s your bookmark for the game as you stand in line for churros or walk down the ramps at Sox Park to try for better seats in the 100 level. A voice like Farmer’s becomes so familiar that you only really notice when it’s no longer there.” - Kevin Kaduk, on the passing of Ed Farmer

34)

SPNLV - Adam Fergus and David Haydn-Jones

Q: What you hope happens when you meet with mary again

A: without giving spoilers, what’s in Ketch’s mind and heart at this time. I think there’s a lot of genuine regret in Alexander’s speeches - taking a bullet to the head changes a man. I think that Ketch would like to make amends, but I don’t think he necessarily has the skillset or the tools or the wiring yet.

Q: Adam - would you like to be an angel vessel in the au?

A: 100%. I love Misha but I love Cas. I want superpowers

Q: David - hallmark question

A: ooo ketch in a hallmark movie.

How did you get to Hallmark?

A: David - oh this is the audience for hallmark stories. I did this christmas movie called Dear Santa, tiny movie but Hallmark liked it and said “how about you make christmas cookies?” This is so diametrically opposed to what I do in this universe! It’s fun as an actor.

Q: Are there any ways you’re similar to your characters

Adam - yeah, i think with acting you have to bring a bit yourself into a role. Whatever you’re doing, you have to bring a huge amount of yourself into the role. The more of yourself you give, the more believable it si

David - Ketch is a stretch for me. I don’t know what it is to be an elite businessman, but i know what it is to have discipline and regret.

Q: If you could go back and relive a day of regrets, what day would it be (doctor tom)

Adam - Probably the time I auditioned for batman? No, but I think what that show taught me is that you can’t go back. There’s no sense to going back, the point of the show I think was to remind you that you keep moving forward. Learn from your mistakes and try not to repeat them.

David - just gonna say the same thing, it’s only regret if you don’t learn and move forward. We’re all going to do dumb things, and the question is if we live there in regret or if we move forward.

Q: What would you write for a halmark for Mitch and Ketch?

david - we would be lovers

Adam - *gets down on one knee*

David - a very special ketchmas. I’d be a version of the grinch

Adam - and Mick could save you. Old tired ketch

David - bah humbug

David - married to mary?

Adam - divorced, and mick could come back from the dead to save you

Q: Special skills - adam, guitar and tango on imdb. Sat concert, maybe you can dance with david?

A: It was 12 years ago, but I’ll try

David- hey my microphone matches my tie!

Adam - I’m lefthanded, had to learn years ago for a tv show. Mate suggested Norweigan wood, it’s three chords, and we went to record it and I realized that playing and singing, it’s like patting your head and rubbing your belly. So my mate played on the recording for me

David - I never learned, my parents sent me to band camp. I was in the the brass section.

Q: It’s been a year since your debut and becoming a part of this family, how has that year been?

David - this is the best anthropology sociology - I felt like an explorer coming into the rainforest finding this new society.

Adam - true story

David - did you say he farted?

Adam - no! True story!

David - we’re off track. I Love it here.

Adam - the show is such a well oiled machine, and then Ruth introduced us to social media and I had to turn off notifs on my phone, and then the conventions - it’s incredible

David - we love work, and then having this as a bonus is a dream come true

Adam - quick story, i was in croatia this year with some people and this waiter just came up to me and said ‘are you mick davis from supernatural?” In croatia

Q: who’s your inspiration?

David - my philosophy is to pick your mentors even if they don’t know they’re mentoring you. This community, j2m

Adam - Friend’s mom, had this amazing way of getting through to me, she’d bring me into her kitchen and read lines with me. She said to me that an actor needs to know his lines like a catholic knows the our father. So tell the story.

Q: for adam - initial reaction to reading script of Mick’s death

A - i was sad. I didn’t expect to be on the show for more than 2 or 3, and 6 was incredible. Reading the script, I realized he went out as sort of an icon. He went out on the side of good, turn his back on the bmol. It was sad

David - you add a great lovable actor like this to the script and it just breaks your heart to lose him.

Q: What was your most difficult moment to film

Adam - last episode with dagon, the stuntwork

David - w/o spoilers, jensen and i were out in a snowy forest for three days last week. I think we shot some really good stuff.

Q: (kid) if you could choose a disney princess

David - moana *starts singing**and dancing*

Adam - havent seen it, i’m more of a little mermaid type of guy

Adam - aladin

David - *starts singing I can show you the world* *duet*

Q: (kid) where did you get your accent from?

Adam - this one right now, or supernatural

Kid - both

Adam - this one I was born with, the other one *switches* they wanted it on the show so I did it

David - *canadian accent* (detour to canadian mol and sasquatch settlement)

Q: you both died, how far in advance did you know and how did that effect how you acted the role?

Adam - every show, ever ep has an arc, so you don’t play the end

David - you never play the end, and they don’t tell you. So you invest in the moment

Q: If your character went to purgatory or hell?

Adam - i like to think mick went to heaven, i think he redeemed himself

David - I think i was in stasis, when they flushed me out the sewer

Q: if you hadn’t been adversaries, who do you think you would have bonded with?

Adam - we would be buddies

SPNLV - Kim, Ruth, Briana

Q: You guys have been spn fam for years now, special moments with fans

Bri- this one’s pretty good

Ruth - there’s been so many, i was in mexico getting breakfast at the breakfast bar, and this guy sidles up to me and goes “i love you in supernatura”. I’ve never felt alone in any country, except tokoyo

Kim - i’m always surprised and touched when things that are hard on me to reveal, and people reflect back to me that those things i share help them heal, it helps heal me. Everytime i hear that i connected with someone in a way i didn’t intend

Ruth: largest group therapy session in teh world, spn family

Bri - australia last year, someone brought this poster from the wayward christmas thing and put it with a lot of my body positive quotes and it just made me start bawling

*kim runs over with chocolate singing themesong*

Ruth - this is normally me with the hotel toiletries, you see how much work this is

Kim - i’m so glad i had three cups of coffee

Q: do you have a roebucks account

Kim - what?

Bri- kat does, she’s like a professional gamer

Kim - you broke her briana

If you had opposite gender roles who would you want to play

Ruth - i’d still want to wear fabulous dresses

Kim - my standby is lucifer, i’d like to see a woman take evil up a notch

Ruth- you know i’m not still dead yet

Bri - did you say ‘i’m not still dead yet?”

Ruth - only supernatural

Q: (kim “she wants chocolate!”) for all three, what do you consider to be a defining moment of your friendship

Bri - for me, i know i become closer with people when i can pursue through conflict, when i find people that i can talk to effectively i know they’re going to be in my life for a long time

Ruth - when kim took me to the kitten sanctuary, i meant what i said at the beginning i need cats, bri... i was being interviewed for the last episode and they’d finished doing interviews for wayward, and the interviewer asked me what i thought of wayward. the interviewer said bri had said “we’d love to have rowena”

Kim -i’m going to be anticlimactic, we had cookie dates on our first episode, it was easy and instant. It was like, i’ve known you a few lifetimes about fucking time you showed up in this one. But ruth, i fell in love with her at Mark s wedding and she was seated next to my daughter. I look over at one point and ruth has plastic groucho marx glasses on, and they’re coloring and discussing the debate between captain america and ironman

Ruth - i sort of sought her out and she looked after me

Q: *bri stalks forward with chocolate*

Ruth - this is great, i can just relax and everyone else can run the chocolate’

Kim - as well you should queen

q: your characters have been through a lot, what have you found in yourself to put that out there

Ruth - you’ve stumped us. I’m filming an ep just now and it’s so interesting, mark p and i talked about this before art reflects art reflects life, and that happens so often, especially with supernatural it happens so often it’s uncanny. I was on my hands and knees friday night saying something that could have been about myself

Kim - one of the things i love so much about the show is that they’re universal emotions in unique situations, hopefully none of us will have to stab a vamp irl

Ruth - really

Kim - don’t tell them about the faeries. But we’ve all experienced loss, we all have family. So i take those emotions and attach them to jody

Ruth - i still love the moment when you were in the car referencing your relationship with bobby, there wasn’t much there and you did it in a beat

Bri - same thing with donna, they were giving donna more backstory and reason to fight moving into the spinoff, while still making sure that she’s the comedic character. The crew had been telling me about this episode for months, and i wrote davy to - people always like to put characters in a romantic relationship to drive them, and i found it interesting that what’s going to drive her is being alone

*kim gets distracted with puppy, ruth vanishes into audience*

Q: when wayward is picked up and when rowena is on it, do you think she’ll be an adversary

Bri - i think donna will be in love with rowena, just in love with the glitter

Ruth - they can go dress shopping

Kim - i don’t know, jody doesn’t even know about cas

Bri - i’m going to say something i’m probably not supposed to, orig pilot script had a scene with donna and claire in a diner and i had no idea when they’d even met, the writers just assume

Ruth - what do you think jess

Jess - i think jody would be wary of rowena, but i can see rowena being their crowley

Q: if you guys got to work with anyone, who would that be alive or dead

Kim - I WANT NEIL GAIMAN TO WRITE A SCRIPT, see i even all capped verbally

Ruth - i’m going to name drop, when i was hanging out with David T. Recently i mentioned, I’d love to work with olivia and david on broadchurch

Bri - from a purely selfish standpoint, viola davis

Q: what spells will rowena teach the wayward girls

ruth - all the spells for morphic champagne and chocolate, and handsome masseurs

Kim - this would be jody’s entire respnse *crosses legs and scowls* so you’re telling me i need to have eight black candles, the blood of a hairless gerbils, and the mummified spleen or i could shoot it in the head. You’re not selling me on this rowena

Ruth - that’s the spell that hypnotizes dean

Bri - i think donna would only want to do spells if it included a magic wand, just “ping! IT WORKED!!”

Kim - machete and shotgun and a magic wand

Bri - pink

Q: would the apocalypse be different if women tried to fix it

Kim - fix it? If women were running it it would have happened by now

Ruth - am i allowed to swear?

Kim - what the fuck have you met me?

Ruth - yes but am i allowed. Fuck me, but what’s going on with the young men and women working right now in the world, with the shooting

Bri - this generation is awesome

Kim - the thing i try to remember about Armageddon is that something has to end before something can begin. So what if Armageddon happens so we can get closer to heaven? My job isn’t to fix the world, my job is to do as close to heaven as i can in my lifetime

*sam smith comes out for hugs*

Kim - there’s chocolate! Come sit on my lap!

*sam perches on kim*

*bri plays with sam’s gloves* it’s hamlet

*ruth starts quoting shakespeare*

Ruth - Look, shakespeare was talking about butts

Kim - that’s a knife

Ruth - and then there’s grunting and sweating after it

Ruth - it’s all about sex

Sam - i thought i was wearing something classy

Q: how do you hope your role will effect people who watch the show

Kim - any way they want it to

Ruth - more sequins

Sam - and driving fast

Bri - i was talking to people yesterday about being an inspiration, and i said “it feels fucking weird”. I’m raising my daughter to be a woman, not a lady. Us, and the younger women on wayward, have an opportunity to be an inspiration

Ruth - i love that rowena’s never had to say that horrible s word, you know that one? Sorry, she’s never had to say that
