throwing some things together to post uwu
So I found this while sifting through old stuff. I apparently was plotting out a destiel fic around the beginning of season 7, just a short one shot. I wrote it out in mostly just dialogue and some action captions and never really got around to actually writing it and turning it into an actual fic and I probably never will. It's called "The Castiel Complex" so here ya go! :)
------
::Sam and Dean are at a bar talking and sharing a drink when a busty asian beauty comes up and comes onto Dean::
BAB: So, what do you say? Wanna get out of here?
Dean: ::smiles a bit and seems to contemplate it with the table in front of him:: ... Nah. Not tonight, sweet cheeks. ::he takes a swig of his beer::
BAB: Okay, your loss. ::she seems mildly put off and leaves the table::
Sam: ::watches the girl retreat and looks funny at Dean, eyebrows squinting:: ... What was that?
Dean: What was what? ::looking straight ahead, in his own mind::
Sam: Are you okay? ::he leans forward towards Dean a little::
Dean: Woah, little close there tiger. Wait till we get home. ::he winks and takes another swig and leans back::
Sam: ::rolls his eyes:: Cute. Seriously, man. You okay?
Dean: Seriously, Sam. I'm fine.
Sam: Then tell me what that was about. ::he takes a sip of his own beer and looks over Dean's head at the BAB who is at another table now::
Dean: It's nothing Sam. Just not in the mood. I'm friggin' exhausted if you can't tell. We just ganked a nasty son of a bitch and not to mention we've got all the crazy Hexus-like spawn slipping around trying to gank us in return. ::he looks a little firm::
Sam: ::raises an eye brow:: Fern Gully? Really?
Dean: Shut up, Krista's hot.
Sam: ::he huffs:: Dean, even if you were tired-that. That right there? ::he points at the BAB:: That is your dream girl. And I, unfortunately, know that if you were really okay I'd be renting out a second room for myself right about now. So now tell me. Are you okay?
Dean: ::he pauses for a minute and stares at his bottle:: ... I'm fine, Sam.
Sam: ::he gives him the pitiful puppy stare and then turns away as they fall under silence, neither speaking nor drinking. Suddenly Sam gets a look on his face as things have worked out in his head and he turns to Dean with an epiphany on his face:: Oh my, God. He broke you.
Dean: ::he looks puzzled:: Come again?
Sam: I mean... I knew you were more upset about Cas'... death, than you were letting on. But I didn't think it was this bad. He broke you.
Dean: ::he looks like Sam is batshit crazy:: In case you haven't noticed, I haven't brought out the Hershey's and popped in Dirty Dancing. Sorry to disappoint you, princess. He didn't friggin' break me.
Sam: ::he is about to start his long winded explanation that consists of he is right:: Look-I. I didn't mean it like that. But don't get me wrong ::he points at Dean:: I know you're being a big girl about this on the inside, Dean. ::Dean shoots him a look and takes a drink:: But let's face it. I know at first Cas wasn't exactly on our gold star chart in the beginning, but then... You trusted him. Hell, you probably trusted him more than Bobby, than-than, me!
Dean: I trust you. ::looks slightly offended::
Sam: Come on, Dean. I can barely go to the bathroom on my own before you start thinking I'm going to crack out the crazy and bolt.
Dean: ::takes a sip of his beer and overts his eyes::
Sam: ::he continues where he left off:: ... So when Cas let slip that he was working with Crowley the whole time... When he didn't listen to you to break it off... and then became a God so bad that we actually tried to enslave Death so that we could get rid of him? ::he pauses to let it sink into Dean who just stares straight ahead, bottle poised to his lips, but not drinking. Sam takes this as a sign to go on:: When you had so much faith in him as our friend- as our family- he betrayed your trust. ::he lets his hands drop to the table and leans back as everything starts to make sense in his own head:: He broke you, Dean. He broke you so bad you can't even trust your version of the perfect girl to give you a good time.
Dean: ::he sits there, still staring ahead while Sam hazards a pitiful glance at him from the corner of his eye:: ...Hey Sammy?
Sam: ::he shifts a bit in his seat, anticipating some big girly admission::
Dean: ::he gives Sam a small smirk:: Can I trust you to shut up about it? ::he downs the rest of his beer and let's out an "aaah!" as he lets it sink down his throat, placing the bottle on the table and raising his hand to have someone drop off the tab:: Ready to head back, Jolly Green?
Sam: ::he gives a small smile and shakes his head and finishes his beer:: Yeah, sure.
::It's later that night and the boys are sleeping::
Dean: ::he's having a nightmare with Cas lying dead on the ground and he's torn between feeling relief that Godstiel is gone, but now Cas is dead too. He shouldn't feel sad though, Cas betrayed him, but he can't help it. Then Cas' wounds heal and he sits up alive and he can't hold back the surprise and happiness in his voice as he bends down to help him. Cas responds in a very Cas like manner and he can almost feel himself feeling like this is going to be okay, they'll get past the whole betrayal thing when they get out of there. Then suddenly it's Levia!Cas and Cas entering the lake and Cas' trench coat and he wakes up sweating.::
::He breaths heavy for a minute before looking over at Sam who's still asleep and calms down and flops back and stares at the ceiling. He rolls to his side and squints his eyes shut, not crying, but looking damn close to it. He opens his eyes and looks skyward like if he did he might see Cas there somewhere and he silently prays::
Cas... 'm so sorry... You were being a gigantic child, but... I should've found a way to stop you, before it got all out of hand. Should've been able to protect you... ::he is scolding himself now, but then his face turns sad:: Cas... what am I supposed to do? I need things to be right again... "You friggin' bastard...!" I can barely keep it together, man. I don't know how I'm supposed to deal with this... Cas?
::he looks up again and there is nothing but Sam's snores and he knits his brows one more time before rolling on his back and rubbing his eyes with a sigh. He’s about to fall asleep when he hears the flutter of wings and he sits up and looks around. He doesn't see anyone, doesn't feel danger. He thinks it must just be is imagination and he hesitantly lays back down, reaching for his knife under the pillow and closes his eyes as he feels just a bit better after admitting shit. Sleep comes easy after that::

dib got a cool enchanted scroll off the dark web and tried to use it to stop zim from flushing dry ice down all the neighbors toilets and it just went downhill from there. yes i did take the ghost bunny things from mopiness of doom lol. gir keeps them and gives names to every single one.
another thing i did a while ago but 4got to post WHEEEEE
OMG That line!
It's like straight out of a scene in a movie where something bad is going to happen to someone and the person they love that they've been fighting with is begging them to forget about their fight, they'll work it out, just come back to them before something bad happens/ I just need you here right now.
I wonder if that music will reoccur whenever they finally meet up again and then Sam interrupts again and there's that record squealing to a halt noise XD I think I would die laughing.
Can I power couple ship Amara/Dick Roman?? I don’t know why this sounds amazing to me?

...........okay... I've enjoyed a lot of the SM/DP series. Pretty much all of it.
I'm a fairly trusting and optimistic guy and I very rarely poo-poo on stuff that is unfinished, because you never know how things will turn out.
And while I wasn't expecting things to turn out the way I wanted as the series was being cancelled, I was at least expecting.... something? A conclusion? Some kind of resolution to at least one character arc? .... possibly just less pages of event covers as the advertised "double length" volume.
... I'm not mad. It's not my story and it's just a comic, but as a fan and defender of the series I really felt kind of uncomfortable with the delivery of that ending. It kinda felt a bit bitter??
Dunno. Anyway, it's over.
As soon as I finish moving (end of June) and get my drawing tablet back and set up, I think I'm going to continue this series on my own. Just for shits and giggles and because Peter and Wade deserved better.
Debating on where to start up.
1. End of the Itsy Bitsy Arc
2. The Roadtrip
Depends on how much I want to keep canon-compliant.
Suggestions?
Ugh, these two break my soul sometimes! Just thinking about what Dean's looking for in a love interest. I think most of us can agree that love is a prominent theme currently and that there are a lot of indicators pointing to the fact that Dean is thinking about having someone in his life. Someone to love. Personally, I feel that at this point in his life Dean is not looking for your typical love interest, especially after that episode where he attended the chastity group and said some pretty interesting things about his one night stands and always with the "adios." Dean has had a life time of sex and one night stands. Sex was always one of his fun "go to" things to do. Something he enjoyed, but now that he's older and after some poor experiences and the weight of always being alone after, sex doesn't seem that important to him at the moment. There has been a distinct lack of it in the past few seasons to kind of support that. I feel that Dean is looking for not so much someone to just love.... I feel Dean is looking for a life partner. Literally, a partner in crime for life. I think he is looking for someone who accepts him for who he is and who won’t back away, someone strong and who he trusts, someone who appreciates him and who he connects with, someone who understands him, even empathizes with him in some ways and won’t make him change, someone who wants to, can, and WILL spend the rest of their life with him. I just see him wanting someone in his life who will ride off into the sunset with him, quietly in the passenger seat, enjoying each others' company while Baby plays some rock. Someone who when he's done reading something, he goes to switch off the light next to him and glances over and someone is there, sleeping. Someone who he can count on to be there with him for the remainder of their life. And I just can't help, but picture Cas in all of this. :( I just picture the two of them... They'd be the kind of couple you meet on the street and you can instantly tell they're together and that they love each other on the deepest of levels, but they give no indication otherwise. They don't look at each other, they don't touch each other. They don't need to, but there just seems to be this unseen entity surrounding them, bonding them together profoundly and you just know. And they know. Ugh, sorry for my feels, they're just killing me!!! As always, don't take anything I say to heart. Just my ponderings, reflections, and feelings. :)
more stuff on their future
I just wanted to draw some clothes
