We know how traumatic it is for Dean to watch Cas die, and it’s happed five different times, right in front of him. The boy went to hell and had less PTSD than when his Angel dies
But what would it be like for Cas to see Dean die. I literally can’t imagine the distress, and the pure rage he’d direct at whoever was responsible
I’m thinking metatron and ‘well guess what, he’s dead too’. I’m thinking Cas killing Billie to save Dean and Sam. I’m thinking the way he ran to Dean’s side when Donatello hurt him and then commit some slight war crimes even though Dean loves to be choked within an inch of his life
Anyways. What would that do to Cas? Tell me, in detail, I can take it

Dragonfly art process - part 1 | part 2
Been wanting to do this for a while! But boy was it hard to figure out what needs explaining and what doesn't, so if you'd like me to expand on anything here feel free to send me an ask!
Happy painting <3
Some resources below the cut
Loish has a lot of tutorials available on her Patreon
Devin Elle Kurtz has some great guides saved from her instagram stories (@/devinellekurtz over there)
Alexandria Neonakis has some cool talks on her youtube (particularly recommend the one about values)
Charlie Bowater still has a few process videos up on her youtube
James Gurney can never be recommended enough for traditional painting and all things theory (on youtube)
Claire Hummel also has some process videos on her youtube
Nicholas Kole's videos are also super informative. I think he even gives a course now
Paul Scott Canavan does these cool study buddy streams on twitch, where you can study together with other folks

okay but like. cogs turning .. last holiday truthing cwt maxxing… the sheer difference in dialogue between the script and the episode is killing me. the deliberate choices made to change said dialogue and even the ending…
Tumblr media
like am I alone in thinking that this whole exchange in the dungeon was very oddly disjointed? very “nobody fucking talks like that” core. they just say shit but it doesn’t land with the other’s response.
and especially when you compare it to the draft:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
for some reason or another, the writers deliberately cut out jack’s lamentation that he is still dangerous, that mrs butters is right to be doing what she’s doing, and that nothing has been the same between him and the Winchesters since he’s come back. they deliberately cut out dean saying “you’re one of us, and you have a chance to make it right.”
there’s also the glaring difference between how sam and dean defend jack in the episode vs the draft. in the draft, they say this:
Tumblr media
D: “You said you didn’t want to destroy this family, but Jack is our family.”
S: “You hurt him, you hurt us.”
Mrs B: “No, he’s infected you. I have to keep you safe.”
D: “By trying to kill the people we care about?”
Mrs B: “No, he’s a monster!”
D: “Aren’t we all?”
•••
not only do sam and dean say that jack is their family and someone they care about, but they also explicitly hold themselves on the same monster totem mrs butters holds jack to (much like what dean said in tombstone, “we’ve all done things, so if you’re a monster then we are too,”
…which all then gets cut and turned into “He can save the world.” no, don’t kill jack, he’s our family and we care about him and he is good despite his mistakes -> no, don’t kill jack, he can save the world.
the explicit choice to center jack’s worth on his usefulness rather than his inherent value as the winchesters’ family and even just as a person, rlly speaks so much to the way he’s essentially narratively doomed to be dehumanized as a tool/weapon/device.
and the fact that this is all eventually preceded by Cas saying “you never needed absolution from sam or dean or me. we don’t care about you because you’re useful or because you fit into some grand design. we care about you because you’re you,” (which in turn is preceded by jack fitting into a grand design and fucking off to the raindrops forever), makes it seem either a painful inconsistency or some weird twisted inside joke between the writers (cough season 16 cough cough puke).
I haven’t posted about it a lot but I truly think there’s some vast trapped-in-the-narrative horror working around jack constantly being dehumanized both within the show as a living weapon and by the writers themselves as a plot device.
shits wack I guess

but nothing really ever ends, does it?
- Process:
Timelapse of my drawing in Procreate, actual time 1hr 15mins. Music: Saturn by Sleeping at Last
I thought it would be really cool to do both Deaths in the same style, so I took my first picture of Death, mirrored it and drew Billie over the top 😄. I really like how the video shows the transition from the one character to the other. Also this drawing was a prime example of trusting the process. It took me a little while to find the right shapes for Billies features but it all came together in the end. Definitely one of the things that I like about drawing in black and white (which essentially this series is, even tho the ‘white’ of the page is a colourful under painting) is that you can use the smudge tool to push and pull the shading into a better shape. That’s much easier to do when you aren’t working with line art and mixed colours. So it’s great to be able to keep tweaking shapes until I am happier with them. 😄

todays tally on the “things about jack that have been almost erased by the baby au” is just how truly genuinely insane (and funny) they are. they pretended to be a coke addict to sneak into rehab and get kaia. their attempt at making friends was teaching the Lebanon kids knife combat because he hasn’t had any other socialization outside of constant war and violence. he loves hunting and he loved the war torn apocalypse refugee camp despite their constant risks of death and loss and suffering.
he straight up fucking decapitated a Gorgon with a fucking sword and just stepped over the headless corpse like an ugly carpet. they disobeyed Death Herself just to save someone they vaguely remember caring about and having responsibility over, then blackmailed the fucking reaper that was sent to watch him into keeping quiet or else Billie would kill her for failing to keep him in line. he attempted to strangle someone in a fit of rage that was so bad it took three gunshots fired into his back to snap him out of it.
some of his personality trait in the fucking wiki are literally how his “protective instincts are in fact, so strong that he will retaliate or turn against anyone if they have hurt someone he cares about” and how “because of Jack’s desire to protect his loved ones, he can show a ruthless side to himself at times.” he used necromancy, magic so evil and dark and potent that the self proclaimed evil skank Rowena Macleod wouldn’t dare to use it, just to bring Mary back.
they were smiling the whole time they fought Michael and especially when they exorcised/killed him. they were smiling and enjoyed torturing Nick and it was literally canonically in-script described as a cathartic kill. when the last Grigori had him bound and held at knifepoint in the church he smiled and said “You can’t kill me” and was still smiling while talking about the other Grigori he’d killed and eaten the literal fucking hearts of.
jack is canonically wanted by the fbi since dean opened a file at some point after Mary’s death + jacks disappearance, and alongside having multiple charges pending on said file, they’re considered armed and dangerous, too. They’re also literally personally hated and personally murdered by God Himself.
But we stay silly :3
