It’s on days like these where I randomly open tumblr and come across posts like these that I once again thank the entire Midam community for pulling me back into the depths of obsession.
things from mr. abel's cameo that made me completely lose it, a not comprehensive list with unnecessary comments:
"look at me while im talking to you" because listen. LISTEN. we been knew they were the healthiest pairing in this show but this is yet another confirmation that they sit down together and TALK. when there's an issue between them they don't just skim over it and let it fester, they address it even if it's not exactly pleasant AND THEY MAKE THINGS WORK. and like.. im pretty sure adam learned all of this from kate but i don't think this is something michael was ever used to do (for many reasons) which means that adam, once again, is [paramore voice] THE ONLY EXCEPTIOOOOOON. excuse me while i cry.
michael apologized to adam. TWICE. while looking like a kicked puppy who knows he did something wrong. the eldest being in the universe after god. the prince and supreme commander of the heavenly host. the fiercest and most powerful warrior of heaven. wrapped around some random dude from minnesota's little finger. [TAKES A DEEP BREATH] [SCREAMS] god this is why i need all the fix-it fics where all the angels come back from the empty, because i NEED raphael and gabriel to see their big stern brother completely besotted with this one human and tease him MERCILESSLY.
the way adam can so easily call michael 'buddy/bud' and scold him.. im FINE. look i know this all sounds very repetitive and im sorry but JESUS CHRIST. WHAT A RELATIONSHIP THEY HAVE.
i don't think i have enough words in my vocabulary to express just how much i ADORE adam. he is so caring and gentle and the time in the cage also made him so understanding and compassionate. like, he was before too, don't get me wrong, but he also had all this anger (completely justified, mind you!!) and of course even now there are some things he will never be able to completely forgive ([coughs] the winchesters) but he is so.. idk, wise, now?? and with michael he is so SO forgiving, like he would have all the reasons to be fucking pissed with michael but instead he is so kind in his scolding and in pointing out what michael did wrong IM LOSING MY GODDAMN MIND OVER THIS.
fast forwarding for a second because it ties to the previews point but michael not wanting to hear adam say he is disappointed.... [HEAD IN MY HANDS] of course. of course michael's nr. 1 fear would be to be a disappointment. he lived his whole existence trying not to disappoint his father, someone who probably punished and diminished him as soon as michael did something he disapproved of. someone who was always cold and distant and didn't care. but adam is there saying 'yes you made a mistake. yes i expected more from you. it doesn't make me love you any less.' and how incredible and new that must be for michael? MAKES ME WANNA CRY FRIENDS.
"I LIKED THAT BODY TOO." DO I NEED TO ADD ANYTHING TO THIS BECAUSE I DON'T THINK I CAN WITHOUT TURNING INTO A SCREAMING PTERODACTYL.
michael getting so excited about mcdonald's of all things.. like it's so funny but also THE MOST PRECIOUS THING. and i love that technically angels only taste molecules when they eat stuff, which means that either michael can taste things through adam or.. idk some molecules taste better than others?? and i can't stop thinking about adam offering michael different food to eat because there MUST be something he can taste and michael doesn't see the point because he doesn't NEED to eat and adam explains it's about enjoying things and michael eventually relents (because OF COURSE HE DOES, but he tries stuff ONLY if adam feeds him directly with his fork or his hand) and so the list of things michael enjoys about humanity expands to 1) adam 2) mcdonald's
So, I was on my daily re-watch of 15x08 and I got to the part of the episode where they catch Michael and do their whole interrogation scene. Was watching the part where Dean starts saying to Adam “There’s nothing we can say to fix that-” and then Adam gives him the look and says “How about, I’m sorry” yes yes very sad, but I’m about to make it hurt more.
I noticed that Adam dead-stares Dean in this scene, when Michael puts him in control earlier in the scene he’s like normal Adam, fair-going and happiy-ish. But when it gets to this part he just looses all that and just lets his words really get through to Dean (and Sam off screen).
But then Dean does this little pull back thing and call me crazy but that totally looks like the classic ‘Dean, I can’t admit my actual feelings, Winchester’ face.
Taking in Adam’s words face:
Realising he can’t say I’m sorry face:
Don’t get me wrong, I do think Sam and Dean regret leaving Adam in the cage but they’ve forgotten about him, or at least they thought he died in the cage but it’s only now that Adam is actually here in front of them that they want to do the morally ‘right’ thing and say sorry. But they can’t, not truthfully, because Adam will always be a reminder that John Winchester failed them at being a parent. That he was unfaithful to them and Mary and lied to them everyday.
So that’s Dean’s realisation in this moment right. And Adam probably saw that realisation by looking at Dean’s face. But then before he can say anything else Michael forcefully takes the front seat again.
I mean look at this sequence:
“Enough.”
Mans is in distress
And the fact that we haven’t seen Michael take control of their body like this before, never this aggressively anyway, leads me to think that something is different about this moment.
My guess is that when Adam realised Dean wasn’t going to apologise and own up for his and Sam’s actions, he got this overwhelming wave of emotion. Mainly disappointment, he knew that his brothers were awful and doesn’t forgive them for leaving him behind but he was willing to. He was willing to get some closure about their actions but they weren’t, and that’s hurts. Michael probably saw these thoughts, heard them, heard exactly how much underlying anger and pain that Adam had been hiding and it was all just now bubbling to the surface.
So Michael - the notoriously emotionally stunned Archangel he is, who already hated Dean viscerally - quickly wanted to calm Adam down and ease the pain that was going to explode any second but now Dean’s upsetting Adam!? Michael probably freaked and just shoved Adam to the back seat while he took control. Which is why his reaction was so extra because he didn’t tell Adam he was taking over he just did. Because he didn’t want Adam to hurt anymore than he already has.
Like even Dean knew something was up, he looks them up and down and turns away like “nah, Adam’s boyfriend gone crazy y’all I’m out”
Insanity, think about the good ending where Adam comes back and after their reunion and after they settle into ‘normal’ life together, the second Adam says something along the lines of “Michael your like a powerful archangel wouldn’t you rather be in heaven and stuff, I’m sure you don’t want to be hanging around in my bod-” and Michael just kisses him right then and there. Holds Adam’s neck and head to keep him in place, to make sure he knows that there is no where in the entire universe he would rather be than with Adam, here, in his hold and comfort. Because no matter how strong or above humanity he is, he can never be whole again without Adam.
He can’t be Michael without his Adam.
ohhhh my god thinking about midam again and how after adam died and it was just michael left in their body it probably felt like there was too much room. like putting on a shirt that’s suddenly too big when you know it was the right size a moment ago. or like returning home to find that all the furniture in the house has been taken.
Desperately craving more Sabriel content guys, i need to inject them into my blood stream seriously.
I do believe, personally, that Adam and Michael are Lana del ray girlies and I hold that close to my heart.
I wrote a post like this before (here) but forgot to post the little mini-fic I wrote between the two based off this exact idea of Michael teaching Adam enochian, so here ya go:
They had been at this for hours.
Well, maybe not hours.
Truthfully Adam had lost track of time ever since Michael had started trying to teach him Enochian at breakfast this morning. Adam had been good at learning the letters and how to write them and all that, it was just the pronunciations he was struggling with.
“Gon Untal Ungaluntal” Michael states confidently.
“Gone Un-Tall Un-Gala-Tall?” Adam repeats less confidently.
Adam already knows that he got it wrong purely based on the look on Michael’s face, a look that’s very understanding even though Adam is flat-out butchering Michael’s native language.
The archangel can be surprisingly patient when the one he has to be patient for is his human. If it were anyone else, Adam has a sneaking suspicion that Michael would have thrown them out of a window already.
After repeating phrase after phrase and syllable after syllable all day, as well as learning the entire enochian alphabet multiple times, Adam finally feels at least the slightest confidence in his know of the angelic language.
As a final test, Michael slides a piece of paper with enochian written on it in what seems to be a sentence. Adam looks down and read over the page twice in his head before attempting to say it out loud.
“Med Talgonvehnaun’graphur Naungisgna Orungongisgna Ormeddon Gon Untal Gonmedvandon Famvanmeddongal” Adam said slowly and tentatively, making his way through each syllable trying to curl his tongue to the right words, all the while waiting for Michael to tell him that he’s messed up again.
“That’s right.” Michael looks into Adam’s eyes.
“What?” Adam’s eyes copy the action.
“Your pronunciation, it’s correct” a small smile appears on his face watching Adam’s eyes light up with joy.
“Seriously!? I spoke proper Enochian!”
“The closest a human can get to it, yes.” The archangel says.
Which - in Michael terms - means that he said it near perfectly.
Adam has no idea what he just said, but all he knows is that Michael is looking at him so lovingly and asks Adam to repeat the sentence over and over again until he shuts Adam up with a frankly lustful kiss, and that’s enough for him to know.
Gon Untal Ungaluntal - I Am Adam
Med Talgonvehnaun’graphur Naungisgna Orungongisgna Ormeddon Gon Untal Gonmedvandon Famvanmeddongal - O Michael Hath Faith For I Am Your Sword
My favorite midam HC is that they learn each other's human and angelic costums like Micheal teaches Adam enochian, how angels act, how they greet eachother, ect. And Adam teaches him how humans act, and interact, and show emotion
Little thoughts :3
Another NSFW (kinda) Destiel Headcanon - this ones more story centric but still:
Cas doesn’t really get horny as he’s stated to Dean before - much to dean’s disappointment - but assured Dean that he still very much likes and enjoys sex with him.
This all changes one day.
Dean has to go undercover at some highly religious/Angel-worshipping cult town and is forced to wear traditional biblical clothing that includes a gold belt, white cloth that only covers the back and front, gold bracelets around his wrists, ankles, and neck, a gold headpiece and enochian writing displayed across his naked chest. And the enochian is a prayer to the angel Castiel, becasuse Sam’s sneaky like that.
He complains to Sam about how hippy he looks for awhile but then, just before they leave Cas comes out saying he’s ready to go and stops once he sees Dean.
His eyes go wide, he’s silent, and they’ve never seen him so still.
Concerned Dean asks “what’s wrong Cas? Cas?” Dean steps closer and cups the angels face, Cas still hasn’t reacted, it’s like his eyes are solely focused on Dean’s pupils. Really worried now, Dean leans in a little more and whispers “….Castiel?” The next thing they know every light in the bunker explodes violently.
For the entire hunt Cas is very smiley and noticeably more lovey-dovey and touchy towards Dean than usual. It’s like he’s been put under a love spell or something Dean thinks. They have a total of 5 heavy make out sessions throughout the case, and once they get back to the bunker they go 7 rounds.
Now Dean isn’t complaining, he just doesn’t know what brought all this on? because he’s oblivious. Although, he’s more than accepting to the extra praise, touchiness, and romance Cas has been giving him, maybe this new cologne really does work? He thinks to himself at one point.
In the end Sam keeps the outfit as a favour for Dean. Cas loves the outfit and is going to make Dean wear it as often as possible.
(If anyone writes a fic about this pls credit and link it to me👍)
I just know that the first time Dean and Cas take a nap together (Cas suggested it even though he doesn’t sleep because he can feel the exhaustion radiating off of Dean) that the second that Dean lays his head down against Castiel’s chest and feels Cas’s arms wrap around him and closes his eyes he blacks out! That old man is tired! Let 👏 Him 👏 Sleep👏
He sleeps for a total 4 days and 12 hours, Cas counts every second and may be using some of his angel grace to keep Dean asleep. Cas himself doesn’t even try to sleep, he’s content just watching Dean snooze :)
I always love how Geordi is never truly weirded out by anything Data does or specifically if he does something strange when learning human behavior. Everyone else just gives Data this look because their weirded out but Geordi just looks at him and raises an eyebrow, and yeah he could be giving him the look behind his visor as well as the rest of them but I don't think so. He's never weirded out by Data's Data-ness just mildly surprised and questions him like "What do mean Data?" in a gentle voice
I agree there should’ve been a scene like this, then once he covers his mouth he puts his head down so you can’t see his face in the shot, and then he just looks ups with teary eyes and just screams and goes full on Archangel ballistic! Against God, Lucifer, the Winchesters, whoever, you decide. It would be epic.
i think i deserved to see michael cry. at least once. just see tears fill his eyes and spill over his impassive face just for one moment before breaking into the ugliest cry ever, full on sobbing, completely alone for the first time in his entire existence. as a treat.
