and if i told you that ben will forever, and always, be a carbon copy of dean even though he tries to resist and fight it, and jesse will always be a carbon copy of sam with his inability to believe that he is a good person with demon blood in him, and if i said that ben and jesse are also destined to be a brotherhood that butt heads but also ben is predicted to be the one that kills jesse in order to save the world much like when dean was told by john and literally everyone else that he was going to have to kill sam in order to save the world and if i just remind yall that ben is drowning in all of the responsibilities and guilt of the world and jesse is struggling between what is good and what is bad and if i just-

POV: you're Jack Kline in an alternate universe where Mick Davies didn't die, but he stayed with the Winchesters as a fourth part of TFW and now Mick gets to slip Cas some tongue and they're dating and when you're born you're raised by four embarrassing dads, two (three) of which are as fruity as they come

TFW 3.0

Today is a very special day for me. October 11, 2020 was the day that I made my first and second mutuals after my late September return to tumblr. 

I loved @cajunquandary​ and @thinkinghardhardlythinking​‘s stories and told them, repeatedly, with much gusto. We evolved from mutuals to friends to a team of TFW/J2M standards pretty quickly, I have to say. I joined B at her wedding, met her new husband. I watched S perform and make it to the semi-finals of an international competition. Two, actually.

Without the two of them, I wouldn’t be writing. That’s a definite. I have probably told this story too many times now but the three of us...we were discussing a priest!Sam gif and someone, probably B, had the idea that all three of us should write something based on it. I protested, of course. I didn’t write. I was just an avid reader.

Well, they persisted. And convinced me. And enthusiastically threatened me to keep writing after they’d read it. And that’s how I came to be. I can’t thank them enough for pushing me into that.

Without them, I don’t think I’d have stayed on tumblr as long as I have. I wouldn’t have met my Sanderson sisters and I wouldn’t have the first draft of a novel started.

I also cannot thank them enough for standing by my side through my last two semesters of school, through a hurricane, holidays, summer vacations, and personal meltdowns. I can’t put into words how much their friendship and support mean to me, how much just knowing they’re around when I need them is a comfort. 

B & S - you’re two very bright spots of my life, and the first two members of my found family. You’ve cried with me through the final eight episodes, you’ve listened to me rant and rave about my life. You’ve supported me when I was unsure and you’ve pushed me outside of my comfort zone into something I truly enjoy doing. 

The Misha and Jared to my Jensen. The Sam & Dean to my Cas. I love you both so very, very much. Happy friendversary my loves.

When the Spn fandom goes to Hell and the real Lucifer meets us:

"What’s all this nonsense with Winchesters? There is nothing supernatural here and please keep down the salt. Who the fuck is Chuck?”

“No for the last time, there's no Crowley here"

"Don't laugh at me, I'm Lucifer wtf"

"No you can't have red spray paint to make demon traps. That shit doesn’t work.”

"Stop spraying salt at me, it doesn't fucking work"

"No, I ain’t scared of no Winchesters"

"Sister Jo? Your queen? What?"

"No I am not bisexual, what are you going on about"

“Who the fuck is Adam?”

"I DO NOT HAVE DADDY ISSUES, YOU CANNOT SPEAK TO ME LIKE THIS"

“I want your soul not your sympathy!”

“Stop trying to make deals with me! I’m Lucifer you fuckers”

"I don't have red glowing eyes stop asking me to show them to YOU"

“I DONT HAVE A SON NAMED JACK WHAT THE FUCK”

“What makes you think that I would do the do with a MORTAL?”

“I’m the sole ruler of hell! Who is this Asmodeus that you keep mentioning?”

"Why would I possess the US president? he's worser than me. The only thing I would do with him his torture the hell out of him, if you would pardon my pun”

“What do you mean purgatory has better interior designing? What the fuck is purgatory?”

"I will not torture souls just cause you want entertainment. What is wrong with you?"

“No I can’t show you where Hitler is. I’m not some tour guide.”

“Fine. You want entertainment? We have loads of copies of Fifty Shades of Grey so go ahead”

"nO you cannot torture the author. Why are you so violent ffs"

“Stop calling me Luci! I’m Lucifer Morningstar, the fallen Angel, the rightful ruler of Hell itself.”

"Yes I have horns and no you cannot pet them. I am not a dog"

“And no you can’t manicure my horns wtf! They are divine and should not be handled by mortals”

"Stop trying to adopt a hell hound."

"Stop petting the hell hounds, they will not play fetch with you."

“For the millionth time! We don’t have wifi here! And stop counting on this Sam Winchester guy who doesn’t even exist”

“You can’t give nicknames to my ferocious beasts of Death! Cupcake is not an acceptable name for my mightiest beast!”

"What are these memes you speak of”

"Show me more memes"

“You can’t force me to watch Infinity War! This is hell! I do the torturing”

“Stop trying to find me a date! I don’t need this Tinder”

If you’re wondering, this is what happens when you put Avi ( @alecbaene ), Ash ( @theboykingsam ) and Medha ( @originalobjecttheorist ) in one WhatsApp group. So this shipost is a brainchild of all four of us ^^

7!! (and 10)

7. Best friends?

Aaahhh thank you anon. I’ll start with my irl best friends

Sam- I’ve known her for forever. She is amazing, smart, artistic, beautiful and a mystery wrapped in an enigma. She is practically my sister. And she is a Slytherin to the core.

Sid- He’s a bit of an asshole but damn I love him. He’s so smart and always knows the right thing to say to cheer me up. He’s the yin to my yang.

My best friends on here

I obviously gotta start with my TFW 3.0

@alecbaene - Avi. Avi is amazing. She’s my beautiful, desi ray of sunshine. She’s the Cas to my Dean. She can conquer the world if she sets her mind to it.

@casgirlat221b  - Akshaya. She’s the sweetest person to walk this Earth, but she is also the Spawn of Satan who enjoys our suffering. She gets so adorably confused at our Hindi. She is so supportive of all our endeavours.

@theboykingsam - Ash. Ash is literally perfect. She is smart and beautiful and has this amazing, sorta wry, sense of humour that just always cracks me up. And she is always there with some words of wisdom or some interesting fact.

And now,

@charliebrxdburys - Claudia is just so bubbly and cheerful and I love talking to her. And she has the best taste. Her face? Stunning. Her writing? Exquisite.

@sans-the-skelington - They are amazing. They are supportive and funny and all around such an interesting person to talk to.

10. Ever been in love?

I’m vaccinated against it, thanks for your concern.

Ask me anything

set up // fake dating au // part 1

"Dude, you need a date," Sam said, for the millionth time that evening.

He turned to look at Dean who was sprawled on the bed, a long list in hand.

Dean looked up, irritation written all over his face. "Dude," he replied, mimicking Sam, "I don't."

"But I told mom that you'd finally gotten into a serious relationship."

"Idiot move."

"She's been pestering me since forever and I got tired of it."

"So? You lied?"

"Yeah. Like I said, I got tired. Besides, it's my wedding Dean. I can't be bothered about this when there's so much to look into. You just have to do it for a day."

"No."

"You're not even going to buy us a wedding gift, just do this for me please?" Sam teased.

"Hey! I'm broke, no fair!" Dean said, throwing a pillow in Sam's direction.

Sam caught it inches away from his face and threw it back at his brother. He turned to look at Dean- "Please," was all he said.

Dean shook his head. Sam and his puppy eyes. "You're a pain in the ass, you know that?"

Sam grinned and turned to his laptop screen.

"Fine. You set me up so you get me a date too," Dean grumbled, going through the list of invitees again.

"Cas," Sam answered, without looking up from his laptop.

Dean froze. Cas? Their best friend, Cas? Surely Sam was joking.

"You're kidding, right?" He asked, hesitant. He didn't know what he wanted more- for Sam to say yes or for him to say no.

He couldn't fake date Cas. Not because Cas was his best friend but because he was in love with him. It was worse than not being able to tell him how he felt.

"Dude, no," he muttered.

"What was that?" Sam said turning in his chair to face Dean fully.

"I can't take..Cas as my date," he mumbled. He couldn't look at Sam.

"Why not? You dated Benny."

"It's not that..," Dean said, wishing he'd be anywhere else but having this conversation with his little brother.

"It's weird for me, Cas is my best friend-"

"Exactly, Dean. You're comfortable with Cas and you'll have no problem being around him all the time. You both have to pretend," Sam explained.

If only Sam knew that he didn't have to pretend to be in love with Cas. What he actually had to do was convince Cas that he wasn't actually in love with him.

Dean sighed.

"Ask Cas," was all he said before leaving the room.

Sam chuckled as he reached out for his phone and dialed Cas' number.

**

"Sam, are you out of your mind?" Cas asked the younger Winchester. He was having difficulty even breathing, let alone thinking straight.

Sam was asking him to fake date Dean. Was this an elaborate joke?

"Cas please, it's for a few hours," Sam asked, sounding desperate.

"It's not the matter of time. How could I ever-"

"You'll be comfortable around each other. You know each other well too. It all fits perfectly," Sam cut him off.

"Sam...," Cas said in a low voice. He pinched his nose and tried to calm himself.

Sam didn't know- no one could ever know how much Dean Winchester drove him mad. Everytime Dean looked at him, Cas thought he would combust. He had spent nights thinking of ways to convey this to Dean but he could never bring himself to go about them. All he did, instead, was hide those feelings from both the Winchesters.

If Dean didn't feel the same way, he knew their friendship would be ruined. It was too much of a risk.

He couldn't afford to lose Dean, even if it meant burying his feelings for good.

"Please?" Sam asked, yanking Cas away from his thoughts.

Cas stayed silent for a minute.

"Cas? You there? It's okay if you're uncomfortable. I und-"

"Dean is okay with this?" he half-whispered.

"Yeah, only if you are okay with it too," Sam said softly.

A pause.

"I'll do it."

"Really? I- Thank you, Cas."

Sam heard him chuckle over the phone.

"It's your wedding, Sam. It's the least I can do. Also, could you ask Dean to call me when he's free?"

Sam smiled into the phone and promised to give Dean Cas' message.

He stretched his arms over his head and went back to his laptop. He paused when a folder on his desktop screen caught his eye.

He clicked on it. It opened to display pictures from a party Cas, Dean and he had been to recently.

He swept through them, his smile growing wider and wider with each picture. It was the three of them- drinking, dancing and smiling to their heart's content. And then he came across one where it was just the two of them- Dean and Cas.

If Sam hadn't known them, he'd have thought they were together.

He did know them though. He also knew that his brother and his best friend were in love with each other and neither had a clue.

As he switched off his laptop he hoped, he prayed that what he had done would change this soon enough.

More than anything, Dean and Cas deserved to be happy.

[originalobjecttheorist]

Hey y'all, for the love of everything good, please please please go watch Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency on Netflix. Please. The second season premiere is tomorrow/today. Please go watch and give it the love and support it deserves. Please

Considering the amount of alcohol he consumes everyday, Dean Winchester didn't think he'd ever get drunk. But the 'after shock' the bar tender had served him had proved otherwise.

"Dean," Cas mutters. "We're in public."

"So?" Dean asks, his hand grazing Cas' thigh leisurely. Dean has a lazy smirk on his face and is enjoying how Cas is shuddering under his touch. Cas sighs, swatting Dean's arm away. But Dean ignores him and continues the stroking.

"Sam?" Cas calls for the younger Winchester's attention.

Sam looks at him through his glass, eyebrows raised in question.

"Dean is very drunk. We should go to the bunker."

Sam glances at Dean, who is almost leaning into Cas' chest now and lets out a low chuckle.

"You sure? He seems happy to be there," he teases.

Cas lets out a huff, cheeks reddening slightly. Dean, meanwhile, is moving to rest his head on Cas' shoulder.

"Please," Cas begs and pushes Dean away lightly.

Sam laughs again and takes a last swig before standing up.

Cas stands too- the action earns a whine from Dean who looks visibly upset.

"Let's get you home," Cas whispers as he puts Dean's arm across his shoulder and hoists him up by the waist. Dean mumbles something as he is forced up but smiles when he looks at Cas. Cas walks out the door, limping under Dean's weight, who has let go of any control. Dean is clearly enjoying having Cas' hand around his waist and Cas can't help but smile a little.

"You going to be okay?" Sam asks once they're at the bunker. Cas is in the middle of half-dragging, half-lifting a very heavy Dean to the second level. Sam tries not to laugh but makes no move to help the poor angel out.

"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" Cas asks as Dean finally let's go of him and leans against the wall.

"Hey, I put up with enough when the two of you weren't together. I think I deserve this," Sam calls, laughing. He waves at Cas before turning to his bedroom.

Cas then turns to Dean who is making a rather adorable pouty face at him and pulling at his trenchcoat. His hair is all ruffled up and his eyes are hooded. Cas realises he has never handled a drunk Dean before. Well, Dean is drunk all the time but this is different.

"Let's go to bed?" Dean asks, pulling Cas' hand. Cas sighs but gives in, he's tired too.

They walk to the bedroom together, Dean leaning into Cas a little. It's cute how he let's himself go completely. He smells of smoke and vanilla and it's intoxicating. In the amber light of the corridor, Dean Winchester looks like the most beautiful thing Castiel has ever laid his eyes on.

Dean throws himself onto the bed, groaning as drags his hand over his face. Cas follows suit, losing the trenchcoat and laying next to Dean.

Both say nothing for a while, the silence only disturbed by their rhythmic breathing.

Out of the blue, Dean throws a hand over Cas' chest and pulls himself up to his ear. To Cas' surprise, he reaches out and kisses his neck softly. It's a sweet kiss and it leaves Cas tingling in all the right places. Dean moves his lips to Cas' ear and Cas can feel his heart beat against his chest. He can hear Dean breathing and he closes his eyes, waiting for whatever that comes next. Dean's lips brush Cas' ear ever so slightly and he says, "I could beat the shit out of you."

It isn't what Cas expects at all and it forces a little chuckle out of him. He smiles inwardly and turns, letting his hand slide over Dean's.

"I know," he says softly.

Dean nods -good, he seems to say- and closes his eyes. In a heartbeat, the hunter is fast asleep. Cas pulls the blanket around them, gently.

I could never get used to this, he thinks. Lying next to Dean, kissing Dean, being intimate with Dean.

Castiel could never get used to Dean Winchester being in love with him.
