hello! do you have any headcanons of Castiel reaction when Candy is in danger/injured?
Castiel, Rayan & Nathaniel’s reactions to Candy being injured 
N/A : It wasn’t specified in the request in which season of MCL this was supposed to happen so I chose UL (and while I was writing it, I wanted to include Rayan and Nathaniel). I hope this is okay and that you like it anon !
Tumblr media
𝙲𝚊𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚎𝚕 :
As we know, Castiel is often very busy in UL (which was a shame because it kept us from spending quality time with him in the game for most episodes)
Therefore, he doesn’t have much time to spend with Candy (as I just said lol)
His reaction could depend on whether him and Candy are dating at this point or not but in my opinion, it wouldn’t matter much 
It’s obvious that Castiel has a soft spot for Candy no matter what, right ? 
When he hears about Candy being injured, his brain just stop 
He’s a bit in shock as he didn’t expect this and he’d ask immediately what happened 
Then he’d rush to see her, wherever she is (if she’s in the hospital for instance, you can be sure that this boy basically jumped in his car)
He’d feel awful seeing Candy in pain and he’d feel even more awful because he knows he’s often not available for her
Really he’d be mad at himself because he realises that it needed for Candy to get injured for him to clear his schedule and go see her 
He’d promise her that from now on, he’d make more room for their relationship and for her in his life 
Starting by cancelling everything he had planned for the next few days so he could stay by her side 
At this point, he wouldn’t care much if his manager or even the members of the band are pissed at him because yes, his career is important to him but not as much as Candy is 
Also, he knows that if it was him who got injured, Candy wouldn’t have hesitated twice to do so, hence it’s the least he can do
Honestly, he’d take good care of her and would absolutely do anything she asks 
She needs a glass of water ? Give him two-seconds and he’s back with one. She wants to eat or get something but can’t do it herself ? My boy is already on his way
If she got injured because of a domestic accident or anything, he’d tease her a bit about how clumsy and careless she is (that would depend on the gravity of the injury of course)
If it is because she ended up getting involved in Nathaniel’s business while trying to help him, he’s mad af
He’d ask her to stop trying to help this bitch (his words not mine) and tell her to stay away from him (when I say « ask » it’s putting it mildly because the truth is that he basically forbid her to do so and he’d feel guilty about it later as he doesn’t want Candy to think he’s trying to control her. He’s just very worried and he knows that she doesn’t go half way when it comes to help a friend so he’s scared that it could go even worse)
But in the end, they both end up helping Nath somehow so that didn’t work so well, lol
However, he wouldn’t tell Candy about it but he definitely went looking for Nathaniel at some point (and it’s not a declaration of love he yelled at him, as you probably assumed)
𝚁𝚊𝚢𝚊𝚗 :
He would hear about it through Chani
Whether she came to him to justify Candy’s absence for the past classes or whether he asked her himself, that’s how he’d hear about the news
He’d try to keep his composure as Chani briefly explains him the situation and would try to act as any teacher would 
But we know that him and Candy share more than your average teacher-student relationship 
He’d try to wait for his classes to be over to reach out to Candy but he’ll end up cancelling them (and he’d get sermoned by Director Cullan once again but this is the least of his worries for now)
I mean understand him, this probably brought up to the surface some traumatic memories
He already lost in wife in a mall shooting, imagining something happening to Candy is unbearable to him 
He doesn’t want to go through this a second time and not knowing exactly  how she is has been eating him up all day 
Yes because he couldn’t really ask Chani for much details since it would have been suspicious (and he didn’t know that Chani already kinda guessed about their relationship but anyway)
If she’s in the hospital, he’d go see her (but he wouldn’t know what to tell to the receptionist. Like is he supposed to introduce himself as her boyfriend or ?)
But no matter what, he’ll make his way to Candy (even if it cost him to lie and say he was her father, which made the receptionist looked at him weirdly like « you look a bit young to have a grown-ass daughter ??? » but it doesn’t matter, she let him pass whatsoever)
He’d be relieved when seeing Candy and even more knowing that she’s going to be fine
He wouldn’t want to come across as too pushy, especially since she seemed to have been through a hard time (no shit Sherlock) but he’d still ask her to tell him what happened 
If it’s a domestic incident, it’d be alright, he’d take care of Candy as much as he can (let’s not forget that, officially, she’s just a student of his) and would make some arrangements for Candy to receive the classes she missed, and the ones she’s going to miss, online (he’d take care to warn the other teachers about her being incapable to attend their classes and it’d save Candy from having to spend countless email, lucky girl)
If it’s because of Nathaniel, she’d have to tell him the whole story and he’d insist for her to do so. Like if she was assaulted, he’d want her to press charges so that the police take care of it. But if she tells him that she can’t because it’d get one of her friends in trouble, he’d be like « excuse me what ? »
So she’d better tell him because he really don’t get it. How could one of her friends let her get in this situation ??
When he hears the whole story, he’d urge Candy not to get involved further and advise her to completing cut ties with Nathaniel 
But he wouldn’t impose it on her because he knows he has no right (and if she tells him that she can’t give up on her friend, you can be sure that this situation is going to worry him every single day from now on)
Give this man a break pls
𝙽𝚊𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚗𝚒𝚎𝚕 :
- If it happened because of his «  job » (and let’s say it is because I want the angst y’all), saying that he feels bad wouldn’t reflect even in the slightest how he actually feels
He’d be completely shocked and he probably never hated himself more than at this moment 
(And we know he’s already not big on self-love lol. Ok,  that’s sad, I shouldn’t laugh about that, my bad)
Bonus point if Candy got injured with him seeing it or not so far (ok let’s not do that, this would be actually way too sad omg)
But if he wasn’t there at the time, as soon as he hears about it, he’s running miles to go check on her
He’d have to make sure she’s ok or that at least, she’s going to be fine before being able to think of anything else
When he’d see her, he’d be completely silent and would be waiting for the moment where she tells him that she wants him to get tf out of her life 
He’d be so ready for it happen that he can feel some tears threatening to fall down (bbg no)
Imagine his shock when Candy’s actually glad or relieved to see him (if she’s at the hospital and according to what kind of injury she has, she’d probably on painkiller so girly would be happy about anything lol. If you have ever been hospitalised, you know what I am talking about)
If you thought this would make him feel better, you’re wrong. He’d feel even worse because now he’s like « I don’t deserve her » (and he probably felt this way even before the accident/assault/whatever because we know that his self-esteem isn’t at its highest during UL, but now it’s x2)
I’d like to say that he’d stay by her side no matter what but let’s be honest : Nathaniel’s defence and coping mechanism is running away from any issue and hardship he faces (luckily he grows out of it by the end of UL)
So Amber (or Kim ?) would end up being the intermediary between Nathaniel and Candy 
Because even if he’s not around, be sure that he’s constantly asking for news about her (and whether it’s Amber or Kim, they’d be tireddd because bffr Nath, just go yourself)
And he’d want to go himself but he wants to find a solution before (which is why I believe that he’d get involved with the police even quicker if something like that had happened)
You can be certain that this won’t happen again and he’d won’t let this slide either 
He’d finally go to Candy after making an arrangement with Eric to tell her that he’s going to fix everything and that he’ll become someone she deserves to be with 
Afterwards, he’d keep an eye on her anytime, everywhere 
(If you remember, in episode 2 of UL, if Candy refuses to let him walk her home, he follows her to make sure she’d make it safe and sound. Well, now every time he spots her in town, going back to the campus on her own , he’d do the same. He basically her hound dog)
I’d love to write some prompts with this scenario because y’all the potential for angst with this damn (there weren’t that much of it in the game somehow)
Tumblr media
I hope you guys liked it !
I am struggling with some requests but some other are almost done so they should be posted very soon !

Meat & Candy

Meat & Candy Masterlist
Previous Chapter | Next Chapter
Before Castiel left the restaurant, he and Dean exchanged numbers to work out a time for Dean’s “lesson.” Castiel couldn’t help but feel excited about it.
Not only because Dean was an attractive man but because he loved food and he loved seeing the process of a professional chef. The way they moved around in a busy kitchen, how they prepared for the upcoming day, the precise hand of how they plated a dish—it all interested him. And told Castiel a lot about a chef. Would Dean be one of those hot-headed chefs who screamed at his staff when a plate came to the pass raw and ultimately pushed his chefs to be better? Or was Dean more calm, collected, and gently pushed until he’d talk with one of his chefs about their performance?
Castiel hoped it was the latter.
As Dean’s eyes followed Castiel through the windows, Sam snickered behind him. Dean turned, rolling his eyes. “Spit it out, Sammy.”
“‘Would you like to come back tomorrow?’ So we can kiss on the mouth?” Sammy mocked in a deeper voice, imitating Dean. “You’re so obvious sometimes, Dean. I’m surprised Castiel didn’t just kiss you goodbye.”
Dean titled his head. “What?” He felt dizzy. Did Castiel like him? Well, Dean knew he could be charming and he knew his looks were enough to make anyone fall for him but he’s had…. Issues. Enough issues where he still got surprised that people found him attractive and liked him for who he was. Yeah, that still got him. 
“You’re so fucking oblivious sometimes, I can’t believe you.” Sam let out a sigh, pushing a hand through his hair. 
“Or maybe you’re just seeing things.” Dean pointed out, trying to push away the fluttering feeling in his chest.
The last time Dean had a relationship was nearly sixteen years ago when Emma was born. He had this on-and-off thing with Benny but Dean wouldn’t call that a relationship. More like friends with benefits. Plus, he cut that off a while ago. Now, they were just friends. Benny met a girl named Andrea and they were engaged. Dean was happy for him. 
And Dean, for a while, was completely fine with being alone. 
Lately, Emma hasn't been fine with it. 
Did she want Dean to go home with just anyone? Absolutely not. But she wanted him to get out there. And Sam couldn't help but agree. Hell, everyone in Dean's life agreed. 
And Dean…. Well, he didn't know what to do with that. 
“What're you gonna do tomorrow anyway?” Sam asked, leaning up against the table he was working at. 
Dean pursed his lips. “The classics? Maybe something else. I've been cooking up some stuff in my head.” He joked, snapping his finger and winking at Sam. 
“You suck.” Sam wasn't impressed.
He had to deal with Dean's coping mechanisms for most of his life. Sam knew he was still affected by everything that happened to them when they were kids. Dean remembered most, if not all, of what happened to them. Sam, not so much, simply because he was younger and his early years were a little fuzzy. 
“And you swallow.” Dean countered.
Sam let out a frustrated sigh as he rubbed his forehead. “Get the fuck outta here and get the shit for our tasting session.” 
Dean laughed and nodded. “Gotcha. See in a few.” He went to the front door. “And by a few, I mean hours.” He waved as he exited. 
One of Dean's favorite things to do as a chef is to walk around the alleyway markets, checking out the produce, talking to a few vendors, and simply taking the time to slow down. He knew a lot of chefs thrived on adrenaline and the heat of the kitchen. Not Dean. He thrived for these moments. Quiet ones. Calm ones. Don't get him wrong, he loved being in the kitchen and he loved the feeling of camaraderie among his cooks when they completed a service but he cherished his time off just as much. 
“Hey, Donna!” Dean greeted her with a wide smile. He'd known Donna for a while.
She returned the smile. “Heya, Dean. What can I do ya for?”
“I’ll take five bunches of parsley, five pounds of tomatoes, two of apricots, and,” Dean grabbed one of the granny smith apples that sat in Donna's crates and tossed it into the air. “Three pounds of apples.” 
Donna nodded and began to bag everything for Dean. She'd get one of her workers to deliver it to the restaurant. “You seen Jody yet today?” 
“No, why?” Dean cocked an eyebrow. Jody was Dean's butcher of choice and she usually came in the afternoons to drop off whatever order he made in the morning.
“She has something special for ya.” Donna winked. 
Dean chuckled softly and finished up, paying for all the things he got. He went to a few other vendors, talking and laughing as he paid for stuff. Some things he thought Emma would like. For instance, he got a citrus and herbal candle—Emma had a nice candle collection going and some of her favorite smells were citrus and floral. 
When Dean came back from the markets, Emma sat at one of the tables doing her homework. He ruffled her hair when he got close. She shot him an annoyed, but affectionate, look. 
“Math still suck ass?” He asked with an easy smile.
Emma let out a sigh as she looked down at her notebook that had scribbles she didn’t understand even though she was the one that wrote them down. “Yeah.” 
“Want a distraction?” Dean leaned in closer to Emma, a hand on the back of her chair. 
Emma glanced at her father from her work and thought it over. Dean was usually good at distractions but also good at reminding her to finish her work afterward. She stood and motioned for Dean to enter the kitchen.
Dean’s smile widened as he opened the kitchen door for her and watched as she interacted with Sam, Benny, and the other chefs—Lee, Garth, Jack, and Charlie. 
To be fair, they were family to Emma before they were Dean’s employees. 
“What should we have her on?” Lee rubbed his chin, looking at the youngest in their brigade, Jack. “Think she can handle searing off the meats?” He teased.
Jack laughed nervously, not sure if he should answer at all. “Well, uh….”
Benny rolled his eyes and punched Jack’s shoulder gently. “Don’t answer that. Lee’s just messin’ with ya.” He glanced at Emma who was glaring at them. “She could probably get every station done on time and still have time to do homework.” He winked.
Dean put a hand on Emma’s shoulder. “Must run in the family.” 
“No. Uncle Sammy sucks in the kitchen.” Emma shuddered. Sam rolled his eyes.
The room burst into laughter. “Well, it runs in my blood.” Dean rephrased. “Anyway, c’mon,” His voice shifted to the one he usually used when he had to work, yelling orders over to pass to make sure his cooks heard him. “We’re gonna do a quick spread of each dish we will be serving, the correct portioning, so take small bites to make sure it tastes how it’s supposed to. Sam,” He looked at his behemoth of a brother, “Do not take bigger bites than you’re supposed to. You’ll be leaving scraps for Jack.”
———
After the interview, Castiel got some good work done on the article at the office. Sure, he could just write down the questions and Dean’s responses but where’s the fun in that? He wanted to make it more of a “character study” than an interview. He always felt normal interview articles lacked a certain soul. They never treated the person they were interviewing as a person. 
“Hey, Cassie!” Castiel heard the familiar voice of his brother as he entered his house. And he could sense the scent of cooking wine.
“Hello, Gabriel.” Castiel greeted, seeing Claire sitting at the kitchen island as she watched Gabriel in the kitchen. Something in his heart squeezed. 
Gabriel was no Masterchef—like Castiel would assume Dean would be—but he was less helpless in the kitchen than Castiel and helped him out a lot when he worked long days and wanted to make sure Claire ate something for dinner other than Wendy’s or some other fast food restaurant. 
“How was that interview with Mr. Winchester?” Gabe asked with a suggestive tone.
Castiel tilted his head, turning to Claire. “Did you tell him?” 
Claire shrugged and shook her head. “No. I mean I told him you were interviewing someone but I didn’t remember his name.” 
Castiel looked from Claire to Gabriel with curious eyes. 
His brother shifted slightly, his smug smirk never left his lips. “I sold that spot to Mr. Winchester. His house too. And occasionally we just talk for fun.” He shrugged. 
Castiel's eyebrows raised. He had a connection to Dean? “How long have you known him?” He couldn't help but ask.
Gabriel's eyes squinted a little at him. “A while. We met while he was still in New York for culinary school.”
Castiel noted the fact that Dean went to culinary school in New York in the back of his head. He became more intrigued. Gabriel lived in New York over a decade ago. Castiel was mostly surprised he'd never heard of Dean before now. But then again, Gabriel could be the type to forget to let people know things.
He and Castiel were different that way. It was a wonder how they were related. They were very different but seemed to work well together.
“What…. Was he like?” Castiel asked, his heart pounding faster.
Gabriel shrugged, a knowing look in his eyes. “Hot. That hasn't changed much. And a little skinnier.” He laughed softly. “Now that changed. He put on some muscle. The man became a proper dilf.”
Claire tilted her head, suddenly a lot more interested in the conversation. Maybe that was part of the reason why the rumors of the restaurant were circulating around her school. 
A hot head chef with a kid? It didn't even matter if he was single or not. Say hello to daddy issues.
———
Dean couldn't keep Castiel out of his head. He was buzzing around up there like a gnat—no, more like a bee. Gnats were far more annoying than bees. Bees were more important, too. They contributed to pollen dispersal and made honey. Honey was good. As far as Dean knew, gnats simply existed to annoy the hell out of people.
He leaned up against one of the counters in the kitchen and rubbed at his temples. He hadn't felt this kind of nervousness since he and Cassie were a thing. That thought made his heart sink. 
Cassie was the last person Dean had been in a relationship with. The last person that meant something to him. In more than just a familial or friendly way. 
And, shit, he was cooking for Cas. Cooking like this was intimate for Dean. It wasn't as meaningful when he was behind a wall, cooking for tables of people but Cas would actually be able to see the work and care he put into everything. 
Wait, when did he become Cas?
Dean shook his head and took a deep breath. He tried to remember what his therapist told him. Those breathing exercises. 
In. One, two, three. Hold. Out. One, two, three. Repeat three more times to make it an even four.
His heart slowed. Dean ran a hand through his hair before he noticed Benny standing near the back of the kitchen. He stood straighter.
“Did you, uh, watch all that?” Dean asked nervously. 
Benny nodded as he approached slowly. “No worries, man. I get it. You like him. And….” He paused to try and find the right words. “It's been a while since you felt like that. Like something real might happen.” 
Dean didn't want to look Benny in the eyes because he was exactly right. Why did Dean have to surround himself with people who could see right through him? Oh, right, because he wanted to hire people who he could trust and anticipate his needs before he asked for something. 
“I'm proud of you.” Benny eventually said, eyes softening as he looked at Dean. “You deserve something nice. Someone nice.” 
Dean closed his eyes at the praise. He felt like he didn't deserve it. He still wasn't used to it, even with as much praise Ellen and Bobby had given him over the years, the feeling didn't change much from his younger years. Dads sucked like that. 
Benny pulled Dean into a hug, surprising him. Dean simply let it happen, holding onto him. 
“You're such a good dad, y'know that?” Benny pulled away slightly to look him in the eye. He just wanted to be there for his friend. “I see the way Emma looks at you. Like you hung the damn moon, just for her. You're doing good, don't forget that.” 
Dean took in another deep breath and nodded. “Thanks, man.” He leaned back against the counters. “I, um, I needed that.” He admitted.
“I knew you did.” Benny said softly. “Just… Do something for yourself for once, hm?” 
With that, Benny was gone. He had retreated through the back door to give Dean some privacy. 
Cooking could be intimate with the right person after all. 
Or it could be hell.
Dean has felt his fair share of both in his forty or so years of being alive. 
“Hello?” Castiel poked his head through the door to the kitchen, glancing around the room before his eyes landed on Dean. He had a notebook in his hands with a pen clipped on the cover. 
He looked like a nerd. With his trench coat and tie combo. It made Dean smile.
“Um, Sam just let me in. I know I'm early. Is that okay? Or do you need more time to prepare?” Castiel asked shyly, playing with the edges of his notebook. 
Dean's smile widened a little, his eyes crinkling at the edges. He quickly wiped the look off his face as he took a breath, “No, you're fine. Don't worry.” 
He clapped his hands together before he motioned for Castiel to come closer. “Take a look around. Feel free to ask me any questions while I'm cooking, I can multitask pretty well.” Dean smirked and winked at the other man, not missing the way Sam looked at him through the window between the kitchen and the dining room.
Castiel hummed a little as he eagerly looked at the pre-portioned ingredients. It seemed like he was trying to figure out what Dean was going to do with them before he started.
He had no idea.
Less than a few minutes passed before the two dishes Dean made were finished. And Castiel's mouth was watering just looking at them.
Dean slid the first dish to Castiel. “This is my version of a classic breakfast. At least, what I assume is a classic breakfast.” He flushed a little as he looked down at the dish. “Egg's benedict with bacon on top and diced roasted potatoes.”
Castiel almost didn't want to take a fork and bite into it. The hollandaise was so fluffy and perfect looking with the way it dripped down the sides of the eggs and English muffin. And those potatoes? Seasoned to perfection and so golden. 
“Is the… Is the English muffin homemade?” Castiel shook his head to try and focus. 
Dean shook his head. “Charlie's a good baker but no. We get them locally though. A friend, Cassie, owns a bakery down the street.” 
Castiel took a quick note. Dean sources his ingredients locally. And then he cut into the dish. And, shit, the egg was poached to perfection. The yolk ran out elegantly. He wasn't sure how else to describe it. He wanted to drink it like water. When he finally put a piece of it in his mouth, he let out a small sigh. 
Castiel has had the pleasure of eating at some of the most expensive restaurants in Chicago and across the US because of his job but this… this felt like he got transported to Heaven and was cooked a meal by God himself. 
He wished the meal could last forever. Alas, he ate the dish in a mere minute or two. 
Dean let out a small laugh. “Hungry?”
“I barely ate today.” Castiel admitted. Maybe that was why it tasted better than anything he'd ever tasted before. But, at the same time, perhaps Dean was just that good of a chef. 
Dean's eyes softened with a glint of sadness, sliding over dish number two. “Well, I'm glad you could fill up.” He scratched his eyebrow for a second. “This is, uh, homemade spaghetti with garlic, parsley, bacon bits—because I gotta put bacon in nearly everything—red pepper flakes for some spice. And I tossed it in some tomato sauce.” 
Castiel looked at this dish carefully. It had some nice color with some red, green, and yellow and it didn't hurt that the bottom of the bowl wasn't dripping in sauce. Which was nice. However, he wasn't the biggest fan of bacon in pasta dishes. 
“Why lightly toss the pasta?” He asked, curious. Surely it wasn't just for aesthetic reasons.
Dean chuckled a little at the question before he leaned against the countertop. “Gives the dish a nice color plus I want to save most of the sauce for other dishes. And I didn't want to overpower the dish. The red sauce I make can be….” He tried to find the right words. “Very flavorful in large amounts.”
Castiel raised an eyebrow at that before he swirled his fork in the pasta and took a bite. Well, shit. Those bacon bits worked pretty well in this dish. And he could understand what Dean was saying about the sauce. It was wonderful in this small amount but he wondered what it'd taste like if he had a pitcher that he could drink from. 
He scribbled down a few more notes in a frenzy. Mostly just flavors and the composition of the dish.
“And, uh, who do you staff here? Professional chefs like you? Or are you open to anyone?” Castiel asked after a few minutes of other questions. 
Dean pursed his lips for a second before his lips broke out into a smile. “I hire friends, mostly. Formal education or not. If I know you're good enough to work for me, then you're good enough.” He explained softly. “Like my best friend Benny, he's my sous, he used to work in New Orleans making lobster rolls and shrimp at little hole-in-the-wall places. Or, uh, Charlie, my pastry chef. She'd always make cakes for my birthday and they were incredible.”
Castiel chuckled softly. That would be a dream, getting to hire all your friends to work for you… Half his coworkers sucked. 
“I try to make a positive environment for my chefs. And my waiters. And my stage, Sam.” Dean smiled softly. “I know a lot of kitchens can get heated. I don't want that. My daughter comes into the kitchen a lot to help and I don't want her seeing me throwing a pan at someone.” He quickly added, “I mean, I wouldn't do that to begin with but… I've seen it happen.”
“Don't worry. I get it.” Castiel smiled at Dean, glancing up from the counters to his face. He tilted his head. “You mentioned you had a daughter twice. Once yesterday. Is that why you wanted to do this? Give her something… to have later on?”
Dean licked his lips and shook his head. “My daughter… she pushed me to do this. To have something I could call my own that I didn't have to share with anyone. Sam helped me a lot, sure, but this is my restaurant. I don't have a partner or co-owner. It's… it's mine.” He took a deep breath, rubbing a hand up his face for a second. “I haven't had something like that in a while.”
Castiel nodded, his eyes softening as he looked at Dean. He made Castiel think of his own daughter. Maybe he was being too selfish and tried to focus too hard on advancing his career instead of Claire.
She deserved more. 
“How… How do you think you did? As a parent?” Castiel asked softly.
Dean let out a soft laugh. “I don't know. Emma would say I'm the best dad ever but I'm not sure. There were times I struggled to pay bills but… but we always ate dinner together.” He loved those times, as much as they sucked.
Emma was such a wonderful child that Dean wasn't sure if that was his nurture or her nature. She always wanted to help in the kitchen. Perhaps it's because he liked it so much and she wanted to know why.
With grease stains on his shirts, oil scars on his hands, and a towel on his shoulder to pick up hot things. All Dean remembered was her smiling face biting into one of his burgers, with one of her front teeth missing. It's like he could see the memory shifting before his eyes. To Emma just a few days ago doing the exact same thing.
Fuck, Dean loved her with all his heart.

So I've been watching The Great (shout-out to @just-a-silly-little-guy for dragging me into it!) And watching hoult playing a guy obsessed with his baby is making me really want postcanon Renbecca babies. Not to be comphet about this but I DO love fankids and babies ever after... and I think it would be something he'd genuinely want? There's happy families on his vision board, and we know how much he regrets his failure as a father. Ramblings under the cut.
I think it would be a big step forward in his recovery, too- being stable enough, financially and mentally, to even consider having another kid. And I think Rebecca has considered it before, but never seriously- she doesn't have a mom, so it would probably be difficult for her to picture being one.
Once they're committed and have their shit a bit more together, I think she'd agree to it- and then they'd be on WILDLY different pages for a hot sec, because "starting a family" for Rebecca means 2.5 kids and a dog, and for Robert it means "I sure do miss hanging out with my sister and her THREE BACK TO BACK SETS OF TWINS". It's hilarious to me. She'd ask how many he's thinking about and he's like "Well, I know birthrates have fallen significantly since I was last married 🤔 so probably not more than five?"
They agree to one-maybe-two. The first pregnancy absolutely blows his mind because the sheer amount of progress that's been made in prenatal care. He'd 100% cry his eyes out at the first sonogram because he's just awed that you can SEE into the womb. He'd be taking this blurry incomprehensible black and white picture everywhere, showing it to everyone he knows like "🥹 that's our baby..." and his friends are like "that's great man, it looks like a bean."
It would also basically give him another anxiety disorder. There's been a lot of advances in maternal health since the 1920s, and his ex wife probably smoked a pack a day and drank while pregnant, because nobody knew that you shouldn't do that yet! Rebecca has to confiscate his phone so he doesn't go on Instagram and get himself hysterical over her eating pepperoni on pizza or candies with food dye. On the plus side, she will DEFINITELY have prenatal vitamins just completely on. Lock. (He brings them to her on a little china plate). The fretfulness would definitely bother her- it's not like she's suddenly made of glass! But he'd make up for it by being equally indulgent of her the entire time.
I think he'd be incredibly happy to have kids in the modern world, too- there's so much less they have to worry about in terms of disease and dangers, and they'll get to go to school all the way to 18, no matter what! If they have another daughter, she'll be able to do anything- she could be a doctor or an astronaut or even the president! Can her nursery be space or medicine or government themed?
All of his ideas for baby names are horribly outdated and all of Rebecca's are from a list she made when she was 14 and daydreaming about marrying one of the boys from supernatural, so they're out of luck there for a while- she doesn't want to name her baby Agatha or Eustace, but she also doesn't want to explain why they can't name it "Castiel".
I also don't think Rebecca would like being pregnant much- she likes that you get a baby at the end, and it's an exciting time for anyone, but that's hard to keep in mind when the little snot is kickboxing your organs all night. And she really wouldn't enjoy the way it alters/reduces her mobility, especially in the second half- she's pretty much five foot nothing and the average newborn is a third of that, let alone Renny's NBA all stars "one week old in 3mo clothes" sproglets. At one of the scans, the ultrasound tech says their baby "looks like they're gonna be tall! :)" and Rebecca just GLARES at him because she has to haul the kid around for another few months still.
They have a little girl and are both instantly besotted. Never shut up about her, total first time (for Rebecca at least) parent madness where the baby blinks in a new way and they both burst into tears of joy and grab the cameras. Robert having been on the night shift for a century means he's very useful in the newborn phase- he's sleep deprived anyway, waking up every two hours for feeds is nothing compared to a week stalking the streets all night for victims.
He'd probably be the stay at home parent, given that he doesn't legally exist- he's the absolute talk of the town at daycare dropoff and has to go full wife guy to defend his honour. This means that everyone at baby sensory and what have you had a fantastic impression of Rebecca before they meet her, because he can't stop gushing about how cool she is after he's started.
Rebecca is more neurotic than she'd expected about babies, and it causes her a lot of stress at first- she's the youngest sibling, so she has very little experience with them, and her daughter is so tiny and fragile and squishy! She gets better about it once baby is a bit less wispy looking and newborn-lanky, which I think would happen by 2-3 months. Kiddo has a lot of growing to do, and consequently gets delightfully chubby before shooting up like a weed as a toddler. Neither of them want to put her down EVER, to the point where she takes a little longer than average to be crawling and walking because she can only make it a few feet before someone scoops her up and transports her expeditiously to her destination.
Baby two is a couple years after the first, once they're confident that they can get a kid to running-around age without completely fucking up. Her older sister, thanks to the accidental attachment parenting from the sheer amount of snuggling and carrying, would be confident to the point of being slightly feral. By the time baby 2 is old enough to play with her the dynamic is very much as so:
Tumblr media
They're smart on their own, but get them both in a room at the same time and their collective IQ is halved and someone ends up with their arm jammed to the elbow in the VCR tape slot.
Despite this, Robert manages to beg and plead his way into one (1) more, just one, this is the last one he P R O M I S E S, three is lots!
They have twins.

Tumblr media
“Alicia Cooper? Really?” 
You raised a teasing eyebrow at Dean as he dropped your cover’s details in your lap where you were lounging on the couch nursing a much needed beer after having to deal with Crowley. The damned Scotsman had nearly insisted on being wined and dined until your group had managed to force him out the door to let you start prepping for the heist. 
“Shut up (Y/N), it beats some of your cover name ideas,” Dean scoffed, though you could see a tiny bit of pride in his smile from how you’d managed to guess the chosen cover name was one of the ones he’d put in the system. Though it wasn’t all that hard to guess. Most of his naming ideas came from classic rock or pop culture references. 
“I think ‘The Artist Formerly Known as Thief’ was an absolutely brilliant cover name thank-you-very-much,” You threw back with a laugh that only grew brighter as Dean dropped down onto the couch next to you and bumped your shoulder. A beer in his own big hand, and a similar folder hiding his own cover identity resting against one of his big thighs. Though his was… Suspiciously thicker than yours. 
The folder, not the thighs… Though he did have some deliciously thick thighs.
“Maybe, if you were supposed to be some sort of actual artist, and not a French art dealer,” He retorted with a boyish grin and a wink. Easily teasing more laughter out of you with memories of your evening spent at the Met gala, rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous and pretending you knew your oils from your watercolors. 
“Alright… So Alicia is passable. Who is she?” You conceded as you flipped open the cover and picked up the fake driver’s license. A small crease in your brow as your eyes went to the details on the paper under it. 
Great… 
You were a damned Bond girl again. And not one of the kick ass ones either. Just one of the empty, two dimensional characters added for ‘sex appeal’. Standing around in skimpy dresses and batting fake lashes at the hero of the story with no story of their own to tell. Or at least none they were allowed to tell.
Whenever you were dealing with the mob you normally only got to play the secretary, cocktail waitress or the ‘side piece’ to one of the guys. Which was usually Sammy or Castiel, since they’d handle intel while you scouted for infiltration, and Dean was just too much for your little heart to handle. Spending most of your recons hanging off of one of their arms and pretending you couldn’t kick the ass of everyone in the room, in heels. 
“Sorry sweetheart, you know how these mafia types are… They can be kinda misogynistic. I promise, next heist you’ll get the kick ass cover and I’ll be the arm candy,” Dean winked, with a grin that looked anything but sorry. 
“Alright, so I’m Alicia Cooper, young heiress and unwitting accomplice who’s just out spending daddy’s money… Got a degree in psychology from KU, but haven’t put it to good use yet. Languages: English, barely. Hobbies: Fashion week appearances, festivals and… That’s it?” 
You looked up from the mess of IDs with your smiling face on them and pinched the laughably short list of information about your character between two fingers before glaring at Dean’s much more sturdy background history in his lap.
“As I said, sorry (Y/N). The mob shouldn’t go digging too deep in Charlie’s or your background; we need you guys to be invisible. You’re the aces up our sleeve after all,” 
The words left him with a smile against the lip of his bottle. And damn it… 
When he pulled that smile, lips a little damp from the beer, the damned gorgeous bastard could get away with anything. Even giving you the cover story of a freaking extra. Your fake cover father’s backstory was more detailed than your own for god’s sake.
“Since there's not much to go on, you can build the character traits however you want, within reason. Don’t go making up any more dark pasts of parents shot in an alley and a lifelong promise of hunting down their killer. Alicia Cooper’s family is all alive and she ain’t no Batman,” He added with a raised eyebrow and a crooked smile. Teasing a chuckle out of you, though you were trying your damned hardest to pout.
“Maybe there’s an uncle…”
“She’s also no Spiderman (Y/N),” Dean gave you an exaggerated eye roll and a fake sigh as his eyes crinkled into that smile that always made you melt.
“Alright, I’ll be Alicia. What about you? Will you be the Mr. Nice Guy to my Cooper?” 
Turning in your seat you leaned in to sneak a peak at the folder in his lap. Leaning against Dean’s shoulder, you pretended little shots of electricity weren’t going straight through your arm and into your heart from the small touch as you tried to focus on the words. Pretending you hadn’t just taken the chance to get closer to him. The same way you always did. Finding little, innocent moments to just revel in the closeness of your crush. 
Whenever Dean was close, you just felt safer, and more real than you’d ever had the chance to feel in your former life on the run. And you’d noticed a few times that he seemed to be doing the same. Like how his clenched fist had brushed up against your arm when Crowley was busy making an ass out of himself. Using touch and human body heat to ground himself. Though for you, only Dean’s touch would do. Anyone else and it just made you skittish… 
Jumpy.
“Not exactly a nice guy, no. I’m Mal Young... Jackpot, AC/DC! I’m the School Days to your School’s Out. Former US military turned arms trader. Should be an easy enough sell for me,” Dean said, eyes skimming the information as he lifted the already empty beer bottle to his lips. Frowning when nothing but droplets hit his lips.
“You always get the cool roles,” You mumbled, sinking back in your seat and frowning at the size of information your combat specialist, hitter and all around heist muscle had to go through while you could already basically burn yours, past glancing over your father’s details and family tree.
“Next time sweetheart, pinky promise,” He hummed, putting his folder to one side as he stood up to go fetch himself a new beer. Stretching his arms over his head, his black t-shirt rode up just a tiny bit, teasing a hint of his perfectly toned stomach and that mouth watering v-shape that you’d love to trace with your tongue. Nearly leaving you too breathless to even notice him walking away without offering you a new bottle as well.
“I don’t need your empty promises Dean, just bring me back a beer!” You called out after him, hoping the combat specialist couldn’t hear how your breath stuck in your throat and your pulse rose from just seeing that small teasing flash of his skin. 
Damn him. 
Damn his cool roles. Damn his adorable cover name style. And, most of all, damn that fucking perfect body. While all you got was…. 
Alicia. 
---
Since you didn’t really need to waste much time trying to learn your laughably weak cover, you’d quickly gotten antsy watching Dean prep for his. Since him concentrating on his role made it very easy for you to get away with watching him. His jaw clenching as he got into character, getting angry at some past wrong in his background story.
After nursing your second beer and casting not-so-hidden glances at him for nearly thirty minutes, your poor body craved some kinda release. And hell, it was the middle of the day, with thin as fuck walls between each of your ragtag group’s private rooms. Meaning any form of more intimate release would have to wait until the cover of night. So, you’d hit the gym instead. 
Rushing to your room, you’d changed into your workout gear quickly before practically skipping towards the large, fully customized gym. Larger than most commercial gyms and featuring every little toy a thief could dream of. Though you weren’t planning on using the climbing wall or even hone your skills against the laser system Charlie had designed for you this time. 
No, you needed to tire your body out and make your muscles ache. Which meant it had to be reps and weights. Heavy weights that could stop the butterflies in your stomach from making you take off and float away.
Luckily for you, Sam was already in the gym. Weight training was always more fun with a friend. Especially when said friend was normally your spotter on days where you wanted to work on your strength and endurance.
“Samwich! Just the man I was looking for. Hope you don’t mind the company. Need to burn some energy,” Your voice echoed in the windowless room, nearly making Sam slip from where he was doing salmon ladder pull ups on the other side of it. Teasing a loud laugh from you as you bounced on the balls of your feet, ready to train away your dirty mind and refocus your body. 
Pre-heist waiting games were hard enough without your filthy daydreams piled on top of it. 
“Really? I thought you were having fun acting like a love sick teen… Alicia,” Sam smirked, easily composing himself and dropping back down to the ground with a soft thud. Damn it. Of course he’d caught you gawking at his older brother. 
It was just your kinda luck. Which meant no luck at all. Ever.
You were definitely cursed in some way, though you couldn’t for the life of you think of who’d want to curse little ol’ you. You were a freaking angel… Past the thieving, infiltration, ass kicking, identity scams and other slightly illegal things you got up to that was.
Sam was grinning, he enjoyed teasing you a little too much. Which meant you wouldn’t get to work out until you could shut him up. Never an easy task with the tall-as-a-skyscraper man. It wasn’t like you could just slap your hand over his mouth to stop him from speaking. Not without climbing him like some kinda jungle gym. 
He was the little brother you never had, even if he towered over you, and you loved annoying him. But sibling love went both ways, and you knew he saw you as his sister too. Which meant he’d take any chance he got to make fun of you, just as readily as you’d take even the slightest opportunity presented to you to annoy him.  Unfortunately, he’d had way more practice at being the infuriating younger sibling than you’d ever had at being the troublesome older sister.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about Sam,” You huffed, pulling your (Y/H/C) hair out of your face as you walked across the room. Shooting a quick glance towards the door you just walked through. Just in case Dean had somehow materialized out of thin air and caught his brother’s words. 
“What? So you weren’t crossing your fingers, hoping Dean would be your… What was it? ‘Mr. Nice Guy’?” 
Rolling your eyes at him, you glared in his direction as you got ready to warm up. However, the scowl you threw at him wasn’t exactly very threatening when paired with how you kept glancing towards the door, worried that Dean would walk in. 
Especially not when you bent over at the waist to stretch your body and loosen up to be ready for the work out. You’d yet to find someone who could look threathening while warming up pre-workout.
Sam knew exactly how you felt about his brother. And he never let you forget it. Maybe it was the fact that Dean was just a flirty guy, and you always reacted like a damned teenager whenever he turned on the charm, or maybe how you always found some excuse to stay close to your resident hitter when off the clock, joking around and just enjoying his presence. Either way, Sam was just too smart for his own fucking good and had easily picked up on your feelings. 
Luckily those same smarts also meant he knew better than to go tattling to the rest of your crew. 
Just because your job entailed sneaking around in the shadows, it didn’t mean you couldn’t kick some serious ass when you needed to. Hell, you’d been in the game since childhood, and since you turned 15 you’d been in it alone, while running from the mafia organization who’d raised you. You could kick his ass any day of the week, and Sam knew it. 
Not that you’d guess it from seeing how you fidgeted in place, casting nervous glances towards the door between scowls in Sam’s direction and weak attempts at limbering up. He’d clearly found his calling in trying to be your cupid, and you really didn’t want him to be. 
You needed a spotter, not a wingman.
“Why don’t you just tell him? Instead of batting those (Y/E/C) doe eyes at him and hoping he’ll get it? Dean can be a bit blind to the obvious,” Sam continued, clearly not ready to drop it, even as he reached a hand out to help you stretch out your back. The teasing glint was still fully visible in his hazel eyes, but you also saw genuine affection there. He really did care, even if he was annoyingly persistent about it. 
“I can’t just tell him Sammy, and don’t you dare say a thing either,” You shot back as soon as you straightened back up, eyes once more glancing at the thankfully empty doorway. 
“It’s not hard. C’mon, say it with me (Y/N) ‘I love you D...” 
Damn him, he really had the irritating brother act down to a pat. And yeah, you loved him like a brother. Which meant half the time you wanted to strangle him with a jump rope. Which the gym had plenty of.
“Shhh! Shut up and spot me. Your brother is right down the hall and I swear, if he hears you…” You grumbled, making sure to shoulder check him as you walked past him towards the weight bench. Though, at your height, you basically just bumped into his lower bicep, which didn’t even move him a tiny bit. 
Thankfully, Sam was smart. Which meant he knew when he’d pushed a joke just far enough to annoy, but not so far as to get an elbow to the diaphragm. So instead, he simply laughed, as he followed you over to the weights section of the home gym.
Sliding down on the weight bench, you took a few steadying breaths as he readied your weights for the bench presses. Needing no further indication on what you were there to do, since your weight reps were on a more or less set schedule and endurance focused rather than just straight up strength. 
“Hey Sammy, I need a bit extra weight today, either that or more reps. I have too much energy to burn,” You spoke the words to the ceiling, as you listened to the weights falling into place on the bar, stretching your arms above your head and shivering slightly when the cold plastic of the bench hit your bare midriff, since you’d opted for a shorter workout tank top for the day. Given how your body was already uncomfortably hot from just being around Dean.
“More reps then. You’re not tearing up your muscles right before a case (Y/N),” Sam shot back from somewhere to the right of you. 
The Winchester brothers shared the responsibility of being the workout coaches for the rest of your team. Well, mainly for you. Since you tended to push your body too far if you were left to your own devices. So, any change to your rep plan was run through them.
“Soooo… 30?” You tried, hoping ¨he’d let you double your normal reps, though you knew the chances of that were slim to none-existent. 
“20, and not one more, remember you do three to five rounds of these reps, plus barbell squats, leg curls, dumbbell…” 
“Yeah, yeah… I know my routine,” You pouted, rolling your shoulders and sticking your tongue out at him as he came into view behind you once you pushed your head back. Your hands lifted to curl around the cool bar, flexing your fingers to ensure your grip on it was secure.
“Count ‘em,” 
Lifting the bar off the rack, you focused on your breathing. Letting your mind drift away with the pleasant burn in your muscles from the repetitive motions. Until the reps all flowed into each other and you put all that useless energy and downright filthy adrenaline to good use. 
--- 
“I’ll take over Sammy,” 
You were on your final runthrough of your reps, having decided to finish after four sets. And just in the middle of the fifteenth bench press, when Dean’s voice pulled you out of the zone. Nearly making you lose your grip on the bar. Luckily, Sam was there to help you steady it as you placed it back on the rack and sat up, reaching for your water bottle.
“Damn it Dean, you nearly killed me,” You gasped, trying to even out your breathing and throwing a grateful smile to Sam as he handed you your towel. Your body was spent, and your muscles were screaming. Clearly Sammy had been right to stop you from doubling your rep amount. You doubted you’d even make it through the last one without needing to stop. 
“Sorry sweetheart, I’ll knock next time,” Dean grinned, giving his brother an affectionate pat on the shoulder as he tagged himself in and let Sam go wash up. 
Luckily you’d already burned most of your energy, but the sight of Dean in his workout wear still somehow got the embers of fire in your veins to act up again as you dropped back down against the bench. Lifting slightly shaky arms up and stretching them to dull the ache that was already starting to build. 
“How many have you done?” He asked, wiping down the bar for you as he leaned over it to look down at you. Green eyes bright and focused as he filled your vision with only him, framed against the concrete ceiling. 
“I’m on the final interval, only four today. Rep 15 out of 20,” You smiled back, forcing your mind to stay on your workout and not on the way his t-shirt clung to him. Or on how his arms across the steel bar tensed and looked absolutely mouthwatering. 
“Twenty? You’re on fifteen reps (Y/N), not twenty,” He frowned, looking not at all pleased with your additional five reps per exercise. Though there was no way in hell you could tell him you needed the additional physical punishment just to deal with the dirty little daydreams of him in your mind. 
“Extra energy to burn. You know I get antsy when we’re left playing the waiting game before a new case,” 
The white lie slipped easily past your lips as you tried to refocus your attention on a blank spot of ceiling above you. Raising your arms up, you curled your fingers around the bar, just as Dean leaned back and spread those stupidly perfect bow legs to ground himself, getting ready to spot you. 
“... Right, final round, then you spot me,” He grumbled, knowing better than to keep arguing and letting your body cool down too much from the workout. 
Training with Dean was like a fucking double, if not tripple, workout. It always was. Past the physical strain of your muscles and the endurance needed to push your body to the limit, you were also left trying to control your poor heart. The overexcited muscle getting an aerobics exercise like no other just from the proximity of the damned greek god of a man. 
The way he’d brush against you, your hot skin heating up even more from every barely there touch. Big hands and calloused fingers, always lingering against your slightly flush skin. His voice in your ear when he stepped behind you and placed a big palm on your lower back to help correct your form. The direct touch against your bare lower back sending shots of pure unadulterated electricity through you, which only grew in intensity as he pushed his body against yours to further shape and correct your stance.
Damn it, this was not the release you’d hoped for it to be. And by the time you finished the last set, you were just as worked up as you’d been before you even got started. It would have to be yet another cold shower for you. Damn him and his… Shit. 
Where was your snarky quick wittedness when you needed it?
“Thirty reps?” You questioned, slightly breathlessly, as you patted the towel against your neck and reached out for your water bottle. Stretching your body and shaking away that pleasant tremble from a good workout while you followed Dean back to the bench. Stopping just a few steps behind him to watch as he bent over to wipe down the bench, giving you a front row seat to a view of that damned perfect ass in his loose workout sweats.
Mentally tongue-tied, cotton mouthed and filthy minded, you nearly missed his cocky grin and raised eyebrow. A clear indication that he’d caught you checking him out. Though you’d of course still pretend you didn’t. You were an innocent sweet summer child; your mind was unicorns and rainbows, not hot skin, teeth and tongue. 
“Yeah… Actually, let’s do 35. I think I have some extra energy to burn too,” He finally said as he fell back against the bench. Groaning as he stretched his body and rewarded you with a glimpse of that perfectly toned stomach below his t-shirt. 
Walking around the bench, you somehow managed to keep your fingers from brushing over his taut body on the bench. Which, considering your profession was all sticky fingers and an attraction to anything shiny or gorgeous, was a damned miracle. 
Spotting Dean was always harder than the toughest case to crack. Not because you needed to actually do much. The man was a damned perfect specimen, lifting the weights easily and barely even breaking a sweat. It was, however, yet another hellish workout for your poor frustrated libido and heart. Standing there, ready to spot him, you had the perfect chance to ogle him indiscriminately. 
Watching as those perfectly muscular arms strained against the weights, lips slightly parted around sharp breaths and brow furrowed in concentration, showing just the slightest sheen of sweat from the physical exertion. He was damned near too much for you to handle. 
Just the sight of those muscles moving like liquid under his shirt, adding extra layers to your dirty daydreams of how that same hard body would feel if you were to run your fingers down his muscular back, with his body towering over yours on the bed. Pupils' wide and sharp breaths replaced by groaned moans… 
Yeah, you definitely needed a cold shower. 
Fucking arctic; ice cubes instead of water if possible.
Luckily for you, or unluckily, depending on how you viewed it, Dean only got two sets into his workout. Before he was pulled out of it, and you were pulled out of your absolutely downright dirty mind, by Charlie popping her head in through the door. 
“Operations room in fifteen!” She called out, barely stopping to raise a knowing eyebrow at your clearly hot and bothered state before she raced off to find the rest of your group. Apparently the plan for the party infiltration had been coming together while you were busy trying to work up a sweat, and not the fun kind.
Throwing a bottle of water towards Dean, you shot him a wink and a shaky smile, before you hurried out of the room. Rushing to hide your breathless, mentally tongue-tied state from the stupidly handsome hitter. For once thankful for the possibility of more manila folders and pre-heist planning.
Still before you got ready to pull off the heist, you’d have to pull off the quickest cold shower ever. Unless you wanted to sit through hours of planning in Charlie’s intelligence HQ all sweaty, hot and bothered. Hopefully your cold shower could at least help with one of those three things. And unfortunately, it wasn’t going to be your filthy mind that followed the water down the drain.

My Candy Love Halloween 2022
First of all, I’m not surprised they went with a Walking Dead theme. The show ends this year, and its been the main “Zombie” thing for a while... Although, frankly, I prefer the Warm Bodies books by Isaac Marion, Zombieland, or Shaun of the Dead. On the topic of Walking Dead, I have no interest in the show, and my fiancé prefers the comics.
Nath has the sexiest illustration... I just LOVE anything that shows off his stomach, especially in intimate situations like that! I always figured he’d do well in a zombie apocalypse. With how smart he is, it is definitely no surprise that he would be able to fight and survive well. My heart melted when he mentioned there being no point in surviving without Candy. When I told my fiancé that he gets compared to Rick Grimes, he commented that it wasn’t a good thing considering what Rick does in the comics.
Cas has the prettiest illustration... The background of the moon, the smoke and clouds, the zombie hands, the colors... It all adds to the kiss and makes it romantic, grim, and beautiful. I love how the moon is a halo to Candy and Castiel. It makes him look a little more angelic as he shoots the zombies. This illustration might not look too out of place in Resident Evil or Zombieland.
Rayan’s is nice. I like the colors and their position... Personally, I would never choose the Cozy Bear as a stronghold against the zombie hoard. Its too central in town and close to other places that might be used as dens and hunting grounds by zombies. I do like how this illustration wouldn’t look out of place in Warm Bodies.
Hyun’s is decent... FOR ONCE I actually think Hyun is attractive... The seriousness in his eyes, his desire to protect Candy.... It all works for him. This illustration is obviously a Walking Dead reference.
Priya has the worst illustration. Its not that it isn’t a decent illustration... Its that there is absolutely nothing to make it spooky, depressing, or remotely zombie-ish. There’s nothing to make it a Halloween Illustration. It could easily pass for an Easter, or Summer illustration. The least they could have done was make the city look destroyed, shown a zombie hoard, or make Priya and Candy actually look like they’re fleeing a zombie hoard. They even look too happy considering the possible situation. They should be scared, alarmed, or even a little angry if they are fleeing a zombie infested city to look for sanctuary. This just looks like gals having fun. Don’t get me wrong, with the other 4 being bloody and dark, they probably wanted a little variety.... But Halloween is supposed to be grim, dark, spooky, and scary. They should have done more with this illustration.
The outfits are pretty decent. This isn’t the first time they’ve done zombie clothes for MCL. But, the last time they did it was for HSL. Its nice to see clothes like this for the UL/LL/AL base. I’m not fond of any of the wigs this time, but the clothes themselves are pretty great! I do love the options of Survivor, Zombie or Scientist... Since those are 3 of the major factors of the Zombie Apocalypse.
Frankly, if I’m gonna have a Zombie Apocalypse team with the MCL love interests, Nath and Cas would be my top choices to be with!
I didn’t play the minigame. I shot through the event with my AP.

New Year’s Eve (au / 1.6k words / parent!destiel)
ao3 link
Ten years ago, Dean would never have dreamed of being at home on New Year’s Eve. But now? He couldn’t think of anywhere else he’d rather be.
Taking in the sight in front of him, he wouldn’t change a thing.
The TV was playing quietly with the sounds of the DVD menu repeating itself. He could feel the warm weight of a small body relaxed against him.
Looking down he could see the blond wisps of hair on his daughter’s head. The three-year-old had been determined to stay awake until midnight like everyone else but it seemed she’d been defeated by the sleep monster (which surprised absolutely no one).
Dean reached out a careful hand, making sure not to jostle Emma in her slumber, to grab her Frozen blanket from her lap and wrap it around her shoulders.
Another hand reached across to help secure the wrapping. Dean allowed the comforting hand to brush against his and looked up to meet his husband’s eye.
“So much for her wanting to stay awake like a big girl.” Blue eyes lit up with a chuckle.
Dean snorted. “Yeah. Guess she must have crashed out after the second load of candy and Tangled.”
“Though, to be fair,” Castiel said, eying the clock on the wall above the fireplace, “it’s only fifteen minutes until midnight, so she was close.”
“Hm,” Dean agreed. “She’ll have to try for a new record next year.”
Castiel chuckled, a small smile gracing his features. Dean let himself get lost in it for a moment.
He wasn’t usually one to be overly sentimental (he left that to his brother Sammy) but looking at his husband in the dim light of their living room, Dean couldn’t help but be grateful to whoever looked down on them that he got another year with the man.
Dean hadn’t been joking when he thought about how he used to spend his New Years Eve. The Dean before he met Cas was one that he now couldn’t believe ever existed.
His childhood wasn’t the happiest, which resulted in Dean searching for that happiness in other places. As a teenager, and into his twenties, Dean found himself stumbling in and out of bars with an endless stream of black eyes and bed partners.
But then he’d met Cas – who had just graduated from college – and everything changed.
“What are you thinking about?” Castiel asked, softly, bringing Dean back to the moment.
“Just how much I love you.” Dean hummed.
Castiel scoffed and rolled his eyes. “Okay, Mr Sentimental, I think it’s time for bed for you too.”
Dean was ready with a retort about how being a little romantic wasn’t because he was tired, but a yawn fought its way up through his throat instead, rendering his point useless.
Castiel levelled Dean with an arched eyebrow, which Dean knew all too well meant I told you so.
“Okay, fine,” Dean relented. “Let’s head to bed. You tidy up the movie snacks in here and I’ll take Em upstairs. Meet you up there in five?”
His husband nodded in agreement and placed a soft kiss on their daughter’s head as Dean scooped her carefully into his arms – keeping the blanket cocoon firmly in place around her.
Walking through the house to the bottom of the stairs, Dean holds Emma firmly but lovingly in his arms.
She was another addition to his life that he’d never seen coming.
After raising his brother, Dean had sworn off having children of his own. Not that it was Sam’s fault, that kid turned out great, but Dean had had parenthood forced upon him once. There was no way he was going to voluntarily choose it again.
Even his developing relationship with Castiel wasn’t going to change it.
That was until Dean had attended a particularly bad call at work.
He had followed his secret dream of becoming a firefighter once Castiel had managed to needle it out of him (perceptive bastard). To start with, most calls had been pretty average with the occasional major job thrown in.
But this call had been the worst Dean had ever attended.
Some guys had hijacked a lorry and taken it for a joyride, only stopping when they eventually collided with an on-coming car in the other lane.
The sole survivor of the entire wreck was a little baby girl, trapped but ultimately unhurt in the backseat of the car.
It had been Dean’s job to monitor her as the others worked to cut open the car to get to her safely.
In those moments, Dean fell in love with the little girl. Despite the environment surrounding her, she didn’t cry. Instead, she spent the whole time with her tiny fist grasped around Dean’s finger and staring up at him with the biggest blue eyes he’d ever seen – ones that reminded him of Castiel.
Eventually, after safely retrieving her from the wreckage, Dean held her close as he allowed the paramedics check her over. Dean had let out a sigh of relief when they said it didn’t seem that she’d sustained any injuries, but they’d decided to take her to the hospital for a full check up anyway.
Staying with her in the ambulance, Dean kept his firm hold on her as she finally cried from sheer exhaustion. He rocked her gently from side-to-side, cautious that she still hadn’t been given the all-clear.
She soon settled and the paramedic, Jody, who Dean had worked with on a few occasions, made a quip about him being the baby whisperer. Dean just chuckled and looked down at the now sleeping baby and felt himself reconsider his stance on having children of his own.
Upon reaching the hospital, Dean was met by a police officer and some lady who worked for children’s services.
It turned out that the little girl’s parents didn’t have any relatives that were capable of taking her into their care. She was going to be fostered with the intention of being adopted.
Dean’s heart broke for her. He knew what it was like to have a disrupted childhood and he wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
He reluctantly handed her over to the children’s services lady, his finger feeling cold without the warm, tiny touch of the baby’s hand wrapped around it.
That night, Dean recounted the events of the day to Castiel as they lay in bed together. Into the curve of Castiel’s neck, he whispered the thoughts that had been plaguing him since he’d left the hospital. The admittedly absurd idea, hope, that Dean could keep her himself. Dean couldn’t even look his new husband in the eye, knowing how stupid the idea was.
But, as always, Castiel had been the voice of logic and reason and he’d replied in an equally soft whisper that it wasn’t stupid or absurd and you never know if you don’t try.
And so, it began. The long, almost painful, process of bringing her home with them. It had taken a little while for anyone to actually them seriously but soon they knew that Dean would give anything to give the little girl, whose name turned out to be Emma – the most beautiful name Dean was sure he’d ever heard, the childhood and life she deserved. The one that he never got to have.
It was almost Emma’s first birthday by the time Dean carried her into their home for the first time as their daughter. Castiel immediately framing the adoption certificate and displaying it proudly on the mantel.
Fireworks brought Dean out of his wistful musings. Emma stirred a little in his arms and he realised what the fireworks meant; it was midnight! The new year had begun.
Realising there was something he forgot to do, Dean cradled Emma tightly to his chest and turned on his heel to dash away from the stairs and instead towards the kitchen.
Castiel looked up from the dishes he was putting away with a face filled with confusion.
“Dean? Is everything ok-“ Castiel was cut off by Dean’s lips on his.
“I almost missed our New Years’ kiss.” Dean explained as he pulled away.
Castiel let out a breath of laughter. “We’ve been together for six years; I think it’s okay not to have a New Years’ kiss every year.” He said, moving into Dean’s space, encasing Emma between them.
“Nope! Not happening. Sorry, Cas. You’re stuck with giving me a New Years’ kiss every year for the rest of our lives.” Dean laughed, leaning in to give his husband an over-exaggerated kiss on the cheek.
The movement jostled their sleeping daughter and she blinked awake, rubbing at her eyes. She made a disgruntled noise at being woken up from her otherwise perfect sleep.
“Oh, hello there, sleepyhead!” Castiel grinned down at her.
Emma frowned in response. “I didn’t fall asleep! I stayed awake the whole time!”
Dean chuckled, bouncing his pouting daughter in his arms, “Sure kiddo, whatever you say,” he grinned. “But awake or not, you’re definitely going to sleep now. Say goodnight to Daddy.”
“Night, night, Daddy,” Emma yawned as she waved at Castiel.
“Goodnight, Sweet Pea,” Castiel replied, leaning over to give her a kiss on the head again.
Before Castiel could get too far away, Dean swooped in to place another kiss on his lips.
“I’ll meet you in bed.” Dean winked over Emma’s head.
Castiel shook his head affectionately in response.
They both knew that in all reality they’d be asleep before their heads hit the pillow. Leaving the new year to creep in while they are curled up together.
And Dean wouldn’t have it any other way.

I'm once again feeling feral about destiel and how I wasn't even the intended target of the bait (queer) but what they used (possibly without realising) to explain it away (autistic)
They make a joke about cas having problems with the idea of personal space but he only stands too close to dean, they make cas stare but never at sam, they make him say something too earnest because he doesn't understand social norms but they do realise that doesn't make it any less true, right?
I'm not even the fish they were trying to catch, I'm the f*cking worm
I'm hooked, I'm ecstatic, I'm livid
It's probably thee most compelling autistic love story I've seen in my entire life and it's technically not even THERE
Nobody set out to even subtextually write it as that but it EXISTS and it WORKS
SO WELL
Because the things that hide destiel in real life are the same ones that hide it from dean
In his eyes cas is just a weird, dorky little guy that doesn't understand the intricate rituals, of course he isn't in love with him nobody can love him, he's unlovable
The same desexualisation of autistic characters expected (but not quite achieved) from the audience happened in dean's head. You could say the whole "dean didn't know cas could feel that way" is an angels thing and dean would absolutely say it but the fact is that he wouldn't think that about almost any other angel, he literally SAW one in a committed relationship with a human mere episodes ago for fucks sake
And while it in a sense works against destiel it a the same time also works FOR it - both within the narrative and in the real world
Dean wouldn't be allowed to make jokes about thelma and louise and bert and ernie or say things like "last person that looked at me like that, I got laid" withou the plausible deniability cas's confused reaction insured
He would never open up if cas wasn't so damn earnest, he allows himself to act like he does around cas because he knows there will be no judgment and because cas doesn't understand human culture and and dean's performance, for the lack of better word, is too complicated he makes attempts to at least partially drop it (which would in a better world culminate in dean realising he's bi)
Castiel's autism, and the wish to understand and be understood connected to it, is just as central to destiel as deans chronic inability to give up hidding behind a mask
So castiel taking that for himself, wanting without shame and expressing it in his own way without regard for the conventions of the neurotypical world
Yeah, I can see how that could be his moment of true happiness
(Not to say he couldn't be happier, this was just the overwhelming feeling of the bare minimum being reached for the first time
He deserves to want and HAVE IT
I deserve for him to have it)
Anyways if anybody needs me I'll be in my room eating tacks like candy

Dear My Candy Love
I will start by apologising for the English language of my message. I am a French woman who writes very badly in English, so I use a translator. Again, I apologise if this is not very clear...
It's already been more than a month since Love Life ended and I must admit that I was really dreading this ending. To tell you the truth, My Candy Love has been part of my life for more than 10 years. I still remember that moment, sitting on my sofa, when suddenly the game's commercial came on the TV. In 2011, otomes were not as common as today and not as diverse. So I got interested and signed up...
I can't say that it was love at first sight with this game and these characters. That would be a lie. I found Ken too clingy, Castiel really boring and also surprising when you see the love I have for him today, Nathaniel uninteresting. Being in my late twenties, the universe was way too cheesy and really boring. But over the years, everything changed...
Of course I didn't like 3/4 of the characters and my LI was still not chosen. I really didn't know what to do. Armin was the good buddy for my Candy, Kentin didn't tell me about him I never liked him and Lysander... Such an airheaded character although endearing wouldn't have worked with my character.... As for Castiel, although he could be my type IRL, I was incompatible with him. So I turned to Nathaniel. The one on the side... A l'om with him always at the maximum and always the automatic illustrations so my first reflex was to review absolutely all his route and at episode 21 it happened the miracle I was waiting for. The butterflies in my stomach were revealed...
To tell you the truth, I never liked Nathaniel for his looks, his kindness; that he was the smart, clean boy, etc... I discovered a character who turned my brain upside down, who found flaws, suffering and depth. For me, he wasn't the sweet delegate. Of course he wasn't. I discovered that he was much more than that and believe me, his arc turned me upside down. I wouldn't say anything else except that Nath is my alter ego. He looks a lot like me. From his experience, his pain, his struggle. I had never felt that way and the part with his father made me reject the game for almost 2 years... Yet I went back. I needed it. I missed Nath too much. So I came back and lived the end of HSL happily much more serenely.
The arrival of CL and the delinquent Nath, made me smile. I am not one who was shocked to see him like that. For me, Nathaniel's pain was not gone. Such deep pain does not go away. You just learn to bear it and put it away quietly inside you, but it stays. Nath's aloofness did not scare me. I discovered with fascination a part of him that I had suspected since I started trying to understand him. I've only been talking about Nath for a while now, but that's how I lived my adventure. For me, there was only him. He was my therapy.
To finish with my adventure, Love Life was so sudden. I got really upset with Eric. I didn't like him either and seeing him always smiling, it made me so mad, I think the people I'm talking was bored at one point because I kept pouring my venom on him. Something was wrong. I wasn't seeing as much of Nath and it was putting me in a rage but I didn't want to be nice to him. It was too suspicious to be harmless and I was right. I ended my adventure at -100 with him...
Finally My Candy Love was an incredible adventure. I laughed, I cried, I got angry and at the same time I was happy, but for me even if Nath put a ring on my Candy's finger, this game leaves a bitter taste in my throat. For me, there were so many possibilities that it frustrated me. I may never see Lyilouu in a wedding dress and all my questions will remain unanswered. Still, I have to force myself to turn this page which is My Candy Love the first. I will never love it as much as I did with Nath because I lived it intensely until the end.
So here it is, I know I probably forgot a lot of things but I really needed to write down what's on my mind since this episode 15. Anyway, thank you all for reading this far (you have courage) and thank you to @chinomiko​ and Beemoov for creating a universe that helped me turn the page on what was haunting me.
Thank you....
"Finish the episode"

💔 Least favorite ship you have written about?
this one is actually really funny because last year i wrote a fic for a secret santa exchange in the hq fandom and like. i HATED almost every single ship the person suggested AND they also wanted angst and soulmate aus, two things i just. dislike. so for the ship i chose the one i disliked the least (it was saku/atsu and i don't hate them it's like. a neutral borderline dislike thing i could never write about something i genuinely dislike) and in the end i had so much fun writing it!! it was like let's just take this ship you just don't like with this genre you just don't like and add this trope you genuinely hate and it turns out really good?? i'm still in shock to this day
✏️ The first fanfiction you ever wrote? (doesn’t have to be a posted fic)
omg you have no idea. i never posted it thankfully but i was a BABY and it was a mcl castiel x candy fic and on god it was so. i don't even have words. candy fell into a coma like halfway through chapter 4 for absolutely no reason and there was a wholeass love triangle side plot and also lysandre and violette were dating for some reason i still don't know like baby me was MADE for those telenovela dramas
tho i gotta say while the lys x violette thing sucked because i never developed it and just threw it like this and also because back then i didn't realize yet how big of a lesbian violette was, im pretty sure i was just a baby bisexual wanting the prettiest boy to kiss the prettiest girl for bi reasons
🎨 Show us a sneak peek from a WIP!
fucked up childhood friends content baby!
"Diego," she tries, a worried expression on her face.
"Don't talk to me," Diego snaps, refusing to look at her. "Don't come near me, don't-" he inhales, trying not to sound as desperate as he feels. "You're the last person i want to see right now."
Ludmila searches for his eyes, but he refuses to meet them, he refuses to let her see him like this. Not after everything.
"Why?" she asks after a while, her voice soft, almost hurt.
"Because it's all your fault!" he explodes, getting away from her. He can't see the hurt in her eyes, or the incomprehension on her face. He only wishes he could hear the mean edge to her words again, to grasp at whatever he can to feed that anger burning inside him. "You know," he starts again after a while, frantically pacing back and forth in front of her, "when i lost Violetta I was mad at you, but deep down, I knew it was all a facade, I knew it was my own fault. I lost her because of what I did, I hurt and betrayed her and I deserved to lose her." Diego takes a few seconds to swallow the sour taste in his mouth at the mention of his past actions. Apologizing to Violetta was one thing, but remembering what he and Ludmila had done was still hard for him. Through clenched teeth, he finally adds, "But this time, this time I didn't do anything, I didn't hurt anyone and I didn't deserve to lose him too. You took him away from me," he spits out, finally looking at Ludmila. "This time, it's all your fault."

Do you have any theory of what could happen in My Candy Love? Grettings! ☆
My first theory (that I made around episode 4) was that Dan is using Candy to money launder, this has not been confirmed yet but I am more and more positive as every episode comes out. He is the same mob boss Nath and Eric are looking for and when he’s arrested Candy will be caught in the middle and will have to prove that she knew nothing about this. She may get arrested and she will probably have problems with the bank.
Then my second theory was that we are playing towards either a good or bad ending. This is not a theory anymore because I asked BV and they confirmed it. The way I think this works is that in every episode there is a topic that tests the compatibility between the LI and Candy and at the end of the game the sum will make the result. I also think that Eric is there to make us understand what’s going on.
My third theory was about DarkJon. I didn’t like Zack from the very beginning (looks like 90% of the guys I’ve dated 🙄) but I thought he was too much of a coward to act alone and that someone else in the band was maybe working with him, and I got this wrong.
Now, what I think is going to happen with each LI (I am 2 episodes behind so I miss some things):
- Hyun is going to have family problems, we’re having dinner with his family next episode, I think he’s going to tell his parents about his career change and they are not going to be happy at all. They had a restaurant which failed in the past, this also probably led to their marriage crisis. I think there is going to be a huge fight and from this Hyun will learn to put some space between him and his family.
- I have only played the first 3 episodes of Priya’s route, but I think her arc revolves around her job too (all the arcs seem to revolve around the LI’s job) and about how much she is working and what she is willing to do to impress her boss.
- Rayan’s arc is a bit more difficult to predict for me, I don’t think it’s connected to that job offer far away he has received, I think that’s going to affect something else that I’m going to explain later. His arc is probably connected to Marina, but not the fact that he may be cheating, no I absolutely don’t believe this is going to happen, but he may get in trouble at work because of her. And there is a precedent, there were rumours about him and Candy in UL even if we were not on his route. I think Marina may act foolishly and get him in trouble.
- Nath, I think, is going to do something very grey in his work. So far we have seen how much he’s willing to throw the rules away when he needs to, I think he’s on a dark path connected to his trauma. I haven’t played the last two episodes on his route yet, but I know therapy is mentioned. I think he may be forced by his job to go to therapy and it will help him. Also, what he is bottling inside has been affecting everything in his life, from his job to his relationship because to me he is the one who has been treating Candy the worst so far, on both the bad and good route, so it’s possible that during his arc we are going to break up. Temporarily. 
Now, the last thing I think is going to happen is a final choice at the end of the game. I think each LI is going to have a reason to move away. Rayan we know it already, he got a job offer. Priya at the end of UL wanted to go back to India to fight social injustice, maybe she won’t go to India but she may get an offer to follow Renata somewhere else. Castiel is going to have more and more success and eventually may have to move to another bigger, more important city in the music world. Nath may be transferred in another unit somewhere else, and Hyun I have no idea, it will probably depend on what’s going to happen with his career. Because of my Dan’s theory, I think Candy is going to be on the verge of losing the Cosy Bear. I think she’s going to fight and possibly save it but at that point she’s going to have a choice, move with her partner and rebuild somewhere else or stay and break up. That’s going to be the outcome of the good (leave) and bad (stay) endings. Or maybe the good ending is that the LI gives up the promotion and stays with Candy in town and the bad ending is that they leave alone.
This is it, I basically wrote the whole game in my head 😄 looking forward to see how bad my predictions are in the end 😆

Tumblr media
Chapter 3.
The slam on the door jolts you awake first thing in the morning.
With a whine, you hold your head before looking at Dean who's curled around you like a snake as he continues to sleep.
"Hey!" Sam yells through the door.
You hear the small tinkering in the lock before the door comes opening up with him crouched down right before it. He gives a nervous chuckle as you raise an eyebrow at him.
"Lock picking so early in the morning, Samuel?"
"We got a new body. Prostitute just like our first victim." He says before looking down at Dean as he buries his face into your bare side.
"Me and Dean will go. Let me just get him up." You say before giving his younger brother a weak smile.
Sam shakes his head, a smile widening over his face as he closes the door shut.
You look down to your left as you blink, trying to clear your mind of all the alcohol sluggishness you feel. He looks so peaceful when he's sleeping. No hardened eyes or worry lines on his forehead.
His lips are gently parted, the famous Dean stubble gracing his sleeping face. 
You want to open up the cage that surrounds your heart and that's exactly why you can't. 
You shouldn't want to do anything. And, maybe that's the harsh negativity in your brain but you can't see any other way around it. 
Letting him in would mean you would be vulnerable. Would he be the one to protect you? He would be the one to comfort you? 
He shouldn't have to.
Fuck that destiny stuff. Fuck that soulmate stuff.
But, you're frightened that there will be a time when you need him over anything else.
And it's slowly coming to that time. The time to just let out your demons and accept that you're not safe and sound if it isn't with Dean. 
"Dean?" You whisper softly as you nudge him.
He groans at the call of his name, nudging his hips closer to yours and you can feel his morning erection digging into your thigh as he sniffles gently.
You've felt it before, you've felt his hips snap and jolt against you looking for the heat of your body to get him off in his sleep throughout the years.
You can feel the fresh wave of arousal washing over you like waves. Your vision tunnels as you look down at his briefs.
He must have taken his pants off after you fell asleep.
His thighs are toned and taut as they flex beneath the thin black fabric of his underwear.
Subconsciously, you lick your lips as the outline of his cock protrudes through the fabric. 
You've always heard praise and moans through thin motel walls from the women he's fucked. Always moaning about how big his cock is and how it fills them so full. You always thought it was a show until now. He was packing something serious in those denim jeans of his.
You haven't been fucked in a long time. Too long if you're being honest. 
You can only imagine how his perfect pink lips would feel as they drift down your body. His calloused hands rough and urgent against your warm, soft skin. How his stubble would tickle you and make your skin only that much more sensitive for him.
Your hand cards through his hair and you lose yourself for a second as you watch him.
"Like what you see?" You hear him murmur, his voice laden with sleep.
Your eyes widen, your heart begins to pick up speed at the embarrassment of getting caught. 
Your hands react first, shoving him hard and fast away from you. He rolls off the bed and groans loudly as his body collides with the floor.
"Jesus Christ!" He whines as he sits up.
His eyes snap open, evergreen irises finding yours before he's rubbing the bleariness away with his fists.
"Let me give you a little lesson-," he cringes standing up before walking over to the counter and grabbing water, "if you see a hard cock, you touch it. You don't fling the person into the void." He grumbles before sipping the water.
You narrow your eyes at him, pulling the sheets over your half naked body, "Eat a dick, hot shot." You counter and he just simply smiles at the motel room floor before walking towards the bathroom.
"Relax, Candy girl. I like waking up next to you. Starts my day off right." There was no flirtatious tone to his voice, no wink. Nothing that would signify him trying to get into your pants. It brings a blush to your cheeks and neck. 
You find yourself grimacing as he shuts the door.
Wearily, you get up and grab your clothes before staring at the bathroom door.
Maybe if you crack the cage of your heart open only a little bit, it might suffice. Maybe if you just let him in a little then it would take away your pain.
"We have a new body." You call to him through the bathroom door.
He swings the door wide open as he steps out and you shield your body with your clothes as he leans against the door jamb.
"Let's get ready to gank this bitch then." 
You roll your eyes before shooing him away but you don't miss as his eyes drift over your almost bare legs that your clothes can't seem to cover.
His eyes flicker with mischief before retreating back into the bathroom with a sly smirk on his face.
Tumblr media
God, if there was one thing that Dean knew it was that he was way more into you then you were into him.
Opening the passenger door to the Impala, he waits for you to step out of the hotel room. 
It's very rare to see you in a pencil skirt but the times that you do have it on, it's an experience for Dean. 
Your legs look so soft, your toned thighs are hidden and teasing underneath the constraining fabric, nevermind how pert and perky the globes of your ass look. 
He can't help the laugh he gives as you pull down the skirt uncomfortably, trying to make it go past your knees.
Everything you do is so endearing to him.
It's almost incredible to him that you've been the person you are since he met you and growing up he tried to get into people that were so absolutely different from you.
You were sexy and confident, not overly sexual and not flirtatious at all. You were focused and did your job to the best of your ability.
He admired everything about you in your entirety so when we looked for women, he looked for everything opposite of you. No one could ever be you nor would he want them to be.
"I feel so fucking restricted, this is horrible." You complain as you climb into the car.
"You look good." He comments simply.
You watch him walk around the car, his fingers tapping rhythmically against Baby's hood. He fixes his tie and you can feel your palms become sweaty at the sight of him in the rented suit.
You decided that you would start to open your cage, just a bit. Healing starts with you, it wouldn't just get better on its own.
Dean climbs into the car before turning to you. Without a second thought, you fix his tie even better than he could have done minutes earlier.
His breath stutters as you wipe off the shoulders of his suit jacket. Eyes widening a fraction as he looks down at you.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" He murmurs as he starts the engine.
"Nothing." You reply as his hand purchases behind your chair.
What is it about Dean Winchester reversing a car that's so hot? The way he angles his body towards yours, you can smell all of his scents plus the citrusy bar of soap the motel provides.
He hums to himself as he begins to back up the car. You begin to count the freckles on his face before his eyes snap to yours.
"You are really weird today." He mumbles before pushing your hair off of your shoulder and squeezing it lightly.
"Marsh wouldn't want us to fight. He loved us being together." You say certainly as you look out the window.
Dean stops the car before turning to look at you fully. His eyes were roaming over your face. Your voice seemed peaceful. Were you letting him in again? Were you making the time to open your heart up for him once more?
"Yeah...he did love us being together." He replies as he tilts his head.
You give a small smile towards the window, watching him stare at you through the glass.
"Marsh would be mad at us if he saw how we've been acting." You say as you lower the window.
The man beside you stares ahead as he clears his throat.
You were opening up. He can feel his mood lifting into something on the sweet side of happiness. 
Maybe dreary clouds and terrible fights were on their way out. Maybe, you could start to be his life partner once more.
He smirks to himself as he stops at the light. 
"I'm glad you see it that way. I agree." He whispers before turning up the music.
On the way to the morgue, the car ride is filled with singing and laughs. Something that's been so distant in both of your lives for quite some time.
"Can you not touch that?" Dean asks as you throw your legs up onto the dashboard.
"What's got your panties in a twist, De? I want to listen to Kansas." You whine holding up the cassette. 
His evergreen irises flicker to you as he drives down the highway. You give him a wide smile, showing him your pearly whites and he smirks before grabbing the cassette.
"Fine just don't tell Sam I'm letting you pick the music." He mumbles before blasting the music as he lowers all your windows.
"WOO!" You cheer, the Indiana breeze blowing through your hair as you start to play the air guitar.
You can hear his hearty chuckle beside you as he speeds up the car. 
"You're the only girl I know that is me in the female form!" Dean yells above the music as he turns the car along the highways curves.
"Maybe that's why we make such a great team!" You call back as the melody of voices carries through the air.
"We're the perfect team, Candy girl! All I need is you, me, Sammy and a six pack of El Sol!" He yells as the engine revs loudly.
Tumblr media
Sitting in the motel room by his lonesome, Sam taps his cell phone against his temple as he scrolls through his laptop.
What kind of pissed off spirit has the mojo to do this? There's not a single haunting as far as the eye can s-
"Hello Sam." He jumps in his chair before turning to the voice of Cas as he stands before the small kitchenette of the room.
"Hi Cas. Jesus." He mumbles before carding his fingers through his long hair.
Castiel stands quietly as Sam shuts his laptop.
"Uhhh Cas? Did you come for a reason?" The taller man asks as he grabs his cup of coffee.
"Yes." The angel replies and Sam nods slowly before raising his eyebrows.
"Okay. So. Why're you here?" He asks aloud as Cas sits down at the small table.
"We have to make Dean and Y/N fall in love with each other." Sam groans loudly at his words before sipping his coffee.
"Cas, I told you. I've tried but Dean just doesn't want to hear it. He's been hearing it since he was sixteen from our dad." The taller man notifies as he rests his elbow on the table.
"We should tell Y/N." Sam narrows his eyes at the angel before laughing.
"Yeah? Do you think she would take it better than Dean?" 
Cas ponders on the thought for a second before humming uneasily, "No. In fact, I think she might try to hit me for suggesting it and break her own hand in the process." 
Sam gives him a thumbs up before rolling his eyes. 
"They already love each other. They just have to get over the whole initial terror of being actual people with one another." He mumbles as Cas stares at him.
"Yes. But they need to do the act of love for destiny. God sent everyone a direct message, and they are just not heeding it." Sam leans forward at his admission.
"God wants Y/N and Dean together?" Sam asks loudly.
"Oh yes. It's been aware to all angels for quite some time. Right after you went into the cage." 
"Well why didn't you say that before? That's kind of a big deal, Cas!" Narrowing his eyes at the vessel of Lucifer, he stands back up.
"It isn't as big of a deal as it should be, apparently. They aren't even taking this seriously." He deadpans, his voice getting dangerously low.
Sam scoffs before looking down at his phone.
"I don't know what to say. They just have to figure it out on their own." He mumbles.
"Useless." Cas says before vanishing from sight.
Sam lets out a groan before opening up his laptop once more.
"You're useless." He whispers under his breath before continuing his research.
Tumblr media
Pulling at your skirt, you shove the doors open exiting the morgue with your best friend by your side.
"They both were pulled from the same corner, both were aspiring models that wanted to just make some extra cash to live." Dean says as he takes off his tie.
You frown before giving up at the uncomfortable fabric and groaning loudly. 
"Would you stop? You look like your diggin' up your ass to find gold." He whispers as people walk by you into the building.
"Yeah well, this skirt fucking sucks! I feel trapped in a cocoon!" You bark back as you walk towards Baby.
"Your butt looks good though." He compliments calmly as he walks around the car.
"Shut up!" You admonish as he opens the door for you.
"Look! I can't even move my legs!" You complain as you try to stretch your legs, the fabric only giving way about four inches before you find your legs trying to close from the tightness of the fabric.
Rolling his eyes he unbuttons the top button of his dress shirt.
"Yeah, alright. I hear you. Let's go back and change. God, you whiner." He says, leaving your door open as he rounds the car to open his own.
Throwing your body into the car, you unzip the back of your skirt before sighing happily.
Dean looks over before his eyes widen and he grips the steering wheel tightly.
He can see the revealing skin beneath the open zipper, the gentle parting of your asscheeks below the tight fabric.
"Are you kidding me?" He complains as he turns on the engine.
"I don't feel as suffocated, leave me alone." You mutter out as you unbutton a few buttons on your blouse.
You were used to tight tank tops, loose jeans and combat boots. 
His eyes falter to the soft looking skin in his peripheral again, his tongue tracing over his bottom lip before clearing his throat.
"Just wear suit pants next time. Jesus." He says as he pulls out of the parking lot.
"Let's go change and get a beer. I'm thirsty." You tell him as you lower your window.
His head turns to watch you while he stops at a stoplight as you angle yourself out the window. The globes of your ass press tightly together as you fix yourself comfortably in the seat.
Running his large hand over his face, his bottom lip tucks between his teeth. 
You don't even know how sexy you are. You don't even care. That's what gets him so hot and bothered when he's alone.
"Light's green." You comment as you look at the autumnal leaves on the trees. 
God, what if he could just wrap his big hand around your waist and tug you into his lap. Pull you over the middle console of Baby and grip those sexy cheeks between his fingers.
So fucking pert and per-
"The light's green, idiot." You tell him as a car honks behind him. 
Sticking up his middle finger, he abandons his wildly horny thoughts to drive down the road.
"So are we getting beers?" You ask as you sit properly in the passenger's seat.
"Oh yeah. I need a drink." He murmurs, turning up the music loud.
Tumblr media
"Yeah well we need to be quick about this. Another victim seems to be coming up." You say as you sit down in the booth of the dive bar with your two best friends by your side.
Throwing your legs over Dean's lap, you watch as his hands immediately grip them tugging you closer to his body on instinct as he sips his beer.
"There's not a single haunting in this town of Missouri." Sam whispers as the waitress comes over.
"Hey guys! Can I get you another round?" She asks, her eyes immediately wavering to the older brother as she pushes some hair behind her ear.
It doesn't quite bother you as much as you would think. Dean's been getting pussy since you both met. 
"What do you want?" He asks you, his thumb drifting over the leather of your thigh high combat boots as he ignores the waitress.
"Whisky and coke." You say as you look through the documents Sam has printed from a nearby Staples.
Dean leans closer to you and you freeze, your eyes flitting to Sam. You can feel your heart begin to beat faster, can feel your breath stuttering in your throat.
"You have an eyelash." He mumbles as he picks the lash off of your cheek.
Pulling back he holds the eyelash on his index finger in front of your face before turning to the waitress.
"I'll have what she's having. Sammy?" 
"Same." He murmurs suppressing his smile as you narrow your eyes at the younger brothers.
The waitress smiles, "Three whisky and cokes coming up. You want your drink extra strong, handsome?" 
Dean clears his throat as he pushes his empty beer bottle farther away from himself.
"Whatever you're giving my girl is good enough for me." He says calmly.
You wish that things would just fall into place, for the pain to go away and for your heart to be soothed and open once more.
You blow the eyelash off of his finger before leaning back in the booth. 
"She's your girlfriend?" The waitress asks, pointing at you with her pen.
You don't dignify a response as you stare at the pages of information on the victims. You're used to Dean turning the flirting into his nightly pleasure within a few minutes. 
"My wife, actually." Dean says before he finishes off your beer and grabs some papers on the case you're working.
Sam smiles widely before finishing his beer and you roll your eyes, suppressing the smirk your face just naturally wants to give. 
Her smile falters as she grabs the empty beer bottles before nodding.
"Lucky girl." She says and you snort before looking up at her.
"You don't know the half of it." You deadpan, earning a loud laugh from the younger best friend on your right.
Dean doesn't even watch her walk away, he plays with the laces of your boots as you continue to rifle through the papers.
"She was pretty." You comment as you turn your attention to him.
He looks up from your boots just to shrug, "Not in the mood." 
His brother lets off a low whistle as he leans his shoulder against yours, "Dean Winchester isn't in the mood? Has the world ended?" 
You giggle at his joke while his older brother grimaces. 
"Shut up." He mutters.
"Here you go. Three whisky and cokes." The waitress says as she begins to take them off the tray.
"Thank you swee-" He stops himself short before looking at Sam, who gives him a teasing smile as you put down the two photos of the victims on the table.
"Oh my Gosh. Those are the victims, aren't they?" The waitress whispers quietly as she leans against the booth.
"You know them?" Sam asks as he pushes his hair back.
"Of course. We haven't had murders or prostitutes for a long time around here." You sit up straighter, pulling your legs from Dean's lap.
"A long time? Online it says you never had any." You ask, tilting your head.
Dean sips his drink, staring at you instead of the waitress.
It's cute when you become interested in information, the way your shoulders straighten and your neck sticks out just a tad.
"Well yeah. The mayor probably doesn't want people to know that his grandmother was actually a prostitute. Or so they say." You hum intrigued as you pick up your drink.
She notices how keen you are and continues to speak, angling her body towards you.
"Apparently back in the early nineteen hundreds, there were prostitutes on that very corner. The mayor's grandmother being one of them. There was a guy named Morley Rosmund that had sex with one of the women from the corner behind his wife's back and she got pregnant. When he told her to get rid of it, she ended up killing him. She had sex with him first and then put his body through a woodchipper. Only up to his pelvis though and then she left him. Since then, all prostitutes have been disappearing on that corner for years." You nod at the story, your eyes flickering to Dean as he shakes his head with a wry chuckle.
"And no one talks about this?" Sam asks as she stands back up.
"You just need to talk to people that do know the tale, I guess." She says with a shrug before nodding to a group of people that call her from the other side of the bar.
"Well I'll be damned." Dean lifting his glass.
"Cheers." You say before clinking glasses with the both of them.
"Guess I'm putting on a dress tomorrow." You mutter as you write down the dead man's name.
"Can't wait to see how uncomfortable you get with that." Dean jeers with a laugh as he picks your legs back up and puts them on his lap.
Raising an eyebrow, you watch as he strokes the leather of your boots.
"It's comforting." He mumbles before finishing his drink with one large gulp.
Yeah, it is comforting.

My Candy Love Love Life Music Day 2022
This event was lovely! Albeit a bit expensive... I had to use most of my AP to shoot through it... 
The outfits! They finally made a wig that looks closer to my IRL hair when I have it down! I couldn’t help but think of The Remarried Empress with the dresses.... They definitely gave me a Navier vs (t)Rashta vibe! Especially when they’re in red! But, as usual, I got all the outfits in black... Because Alana’s most iconic color is black!
Nathaniel’s illustration is absolutely fantastic! I love the callback to the Sleeping Beauty illustration from HSL! The bit where he talked about getting called “Prince Charming” was adorable! That boy is too sweet! He really is our Prince Charming! 
Castiel’s was fun! I love how he was talking about his new album and wanted to lay low, but did the event anyway for Candy! And how he dealt with the fangirls to get to her was so romantic!
Rayan’s interaction is easily my favorite for this one! My favorite play by Shakespeare is Much Ado About Nothing (my favorite character is Beatrice) and the fact that he mentioned that one instead of Romeo and Juliet was a major bonus for me! My heart went TWANG when he started talking to Candy at the ball!
Priya’s was sweet! I’m glad that their interaction was romantic and cute!
Hyun’s was corny, as usual... But, it was still very cute!
I did not play the minigames... So... Yeah... I don’t know about that....

AP: 1050 ( approx. ).
Rosa and Castiel:
I understand your point of view, Rosa. But there, Castiel is really under a lot of pressure. Totally unfair. ( + )
Rosa may not be wrong, Castiel ... I know it's hard, but in absolute terms, it's not been so long since this whole affair broke out.
Rosa: Do you want us to call him??
Are you going to tell me that you don't want to know, maybe ...? ( / )
No. If he needs to talk to us, he knows where to find us. If it is found he needs to be alone. ( + )
Yes! It is not good for him to be alone in his corner. ( - )
Nina:
Nina ... I'm sorry but ... is there anyone else who could go see your mother? At least until the early afternoon…? ( - )
Look, Nina, don't worry. Go see your mother. It's more important. I'll manage it. ( + )
Bepray: How did you do it?
I developed a new clientele by increasing the activity of the gallery… ( - )
Without firing anyone, anyway. I managed, as I promised you. ( + )
Bepray: We really believe in local industries.
Ah yes, you really don't doubt anything. A month ago, I was plagued, now you roll out the red carpet for me ... ( / )
It may be a bit premature, but I keep that in mind, if necessary. ( / )
Bepray: You cannot imagine the number of small businesses that had to close the day when their only client experienced a reversal of fortune.
This is very good advice. I take note of that. Well, I don't really have time yet… ( + )
Oh, I don't know ... It's already a lot of work. And Mr. Aberny looks pretty solid, financially. ( / )
Eva: Oh ... But ... What insolence! Candy, are you going to let him talk to me like that, anyway?
I'm sorry, Eva. He begins. You can understand that he has something else to do, right? He is a little stressed. ( + with Castiel )
I'm sorry, Castiel, but she's right. This job is also in contact. ( - with Castiel )
Castiel: But I work better when I am rested. I'm going to tangle the brushes, by force.
Okay, so take the inventory for me. I'm going to replace you indoors.
I'm making your coffee to help you hold on! Come on, go to work! ( + )
Chani: Ah, great. It's kind of him. So how is your new recruit doing?
There is good and not so good, but I will not complain. It's already lovely to have accepted. ( / )
Perfectly! If I could, I would hire him! ( / )
It is complicated. Finally, I cannot blame him. It's already lovely to have accepted. ( / )
Hyun:
I'm really sorry, but I can't afford it ... ( - )
But hey, it's your sister, I'll see what I can do. ( + )
Dan:
It's a bit short. Don't you think we risk exhausting buyers at this rate? ( / )
Ten days… It's going to be sporty, but I can manage it. ( + )
Ten days? You do not believe it! The last time, a fortnight was barely enough. ( - )
Dan: What do you have in mind?
I thought ... Yael also takes care of the press relations of his artists. Maybe she could help us. ( - )
Given the delays ... I think we will have to settle for the bare minimum: on-site posting and mailing. ( + )
Eric: It's true that I was fully into our investigation, with this new track, I only thought about that ...
Well, you were taken, it happens… You are someone passionate about his job, it's better than the opposite. ( + )
Finally, she exaggerates a bit, doesn't she? She too could have called you. ( / )
It is true that I, too, would have made a little face, in his place. A week is a long time.
Eric: And I wonder if it's all worth it to continue…
Indeed, everything you tell me there is not a very good sign… ( / )
But yes! Of course, it's worth it. We are still better than two than alone, right?
You know, the couple is never easy. We, too, sometimes argue. ( / )
If you choice the third option
Eric: Don't tell me that you too are fighting over and over…?
You would be surprised ... It remains between us but, these days, we take a little more head than usual. ( / )
No, it's true that, lately, we happen to have disagreements, but not to this extent. ( / )
Agatha is in the alley. ^^ 76 AP
Castiel: You can never really be quiet in the era of 4G…
At the same time, if people come to consume to see you, I will not complain ... ( + )
Oh, stop ... I'm sure it made you a little happy, basically? ( - )
Yael: UKJ is one of the most promising talents in lousy art. It's a heavy trend in art.
It takes time to adapt, but the idea is not uninteresting, I think ... ( / )
We agree. I'm sorry, Yael, but it's going too far ... ( + with Castiel )
Steve: I didn't think it was that bad.
You must confuse ... It's true that he looks a little like him, but he's just a student who is making a replacement. ( - )
So ... Can you keep a secret? He gives me a hand for the day, but he doesn't want it to get out. ( + )
Hyun: You have to start at some point, right? You too, Candy, when you started, it was ...
Hyun ... I'm interviewing in my cafe there. This may not be the time to recall my beginnings… ( / )
Haha, yes, a real disaster! Fortunately, you were there. ( + )
Okay, Hyun, she can answer on her own, right? ( - with Hyun and + with Dambi )
Castiel: Oh, it's okay, huh ... You wouldn't even talk to Pancake like that ...
But next time, I'll ask him if I want help, instead of you. ( - )
Well, Castiel ... You have to face the facts ... It was not a good idea. ( / )
Must say that he obeys without arguing when asked something ... ( + )
Dambi: I'm sorry ... I had not seen the foot of the table ... Wait, I'll get the broom.
Well, it's just dishes, it happens ... ( + )
Try to be a little careful… ( / )

The Importance of Flossing
The first time that Dean noticed it was when he handed Cas a beer in the bunker’s kitchen when they just had come back from a hunt. Cas didn’t do as he usually did, immediately tipping the bottle back and taking a long pull. That meant that Dean wasn’t able to indulge in one of his favorite hobbies, staring at Cas’ long neck while he was busy drinking. He’d always appreciated a good-looking neck, and Cas’ really was something else. So he had a bit of a neck kink? Sue him, there wasn’t anything wrong with that. You know, apart from the awkwardness that came when you constantly ogled your friend. Your very, very good looking, now human friend.
“Cas, you okay there, buddy? If you don’t want the beer I can take the bottle to Sammy instead.”
“No. Thank you, Dean. I assure you that I am quite well” he said and took a small sip of his beer. Dean felt a bit robbed of his neck staring opportunity, but then he saw Cas flinch at the coldness of the beverage.
 Dean didn’t really think more about Cas’ reaction until a few days later when he passed him a steaming cup of coffee at breakfast. Cas recoiled again. Then Dean saw it happen over and over again in the days that followed. Cas hissed when he drank his tea. Cas turned down an offer of getting ice cream, and he never said no to ice cream. Cas almost screamed when Sam gave him some Sour Patch Kids. 
At dinner the same night Sam had given him the candy, Dean realized that Cas seemed to only chew his food using only the left side of his mouth.
When they had finished eating and Dean had cleaned up in the kitchen, he went to Cas’ room and knocked on his door.
“Come in” came the deep response. Dean opened the door and stepped inside. Cas sat on his bed, a book in his hand.
“Hey, Cas. Just wanted to ask you something.”
“Of course, Dean.” 
Dean walked up to the bed and perched on the edge of it, near Cas’ feet.
“So, uh, you seem to have been in a bit of pain lately.” Cas squinted at him.
“You don’t have to deny it. I’ve... I’ve seen you eat and drink these past few days.” Dean tried to will his blushing away, now was really not the time to think about Cas’ neck again.
“Ah yes. My mouth has been oddly painful recently.”
“Yeah, about that. I have an idea why that might be. Remember when you fell, and we talked about the importance of dental hygiene? I taught you how to brush your teeth.” Cas nodded. Dean continued. “Well, did we ever get to why flossing is good for you?”
Cas tilted his head, looking more confused than Dean had seen him in a long time. “Flossing? Like the dance? What does that have to do with my teeth?” 
Dean barked out a laugh. “What? No dumbass, not like the dance. How do you even know about that?”
“One of Claire’s friends showed me. It’s actually rather fun when you understand how to do it.”
“Man, what I wouldn’t have paid to see that” Dean muttered to himself, shaking his head, still smiling down at the floor. “No, this kind of flossing is when you pull a piece of string between your teeth to remove the gunk that gathers between them because the toothbrush can’t reach everywhere. You see, you gotta do that every day now that you can’t mojo yourself all clean and spiffy anymore”
 Dean took Cas to the bathroom and demonstrated. Cas grimaced and the floss came away bloody. Dean winced. “I think you probably have a cavity or two. Or at least some gingivitis. I’ll call the dentist tomorrow.”
 The following morning Dean called the dentist and luckily, they got an appointment the same afternoon. After lunch Dean drove them into town in the Impala. They stepped into the dentist’s office and walked up to the receptionist. Dean tried to give her a winning smile.
“Hi. We got an appointment now at two-thirty. Cas, uh, Castiel Winchester.”
“Certainly. I’ll just let them know that you are here” She hurried away and returned with a nurse.
“Castiel? Nice to meet you. If you’d come with me this way, please.”
Cas turned to Dean, looking worried. “You’ll be fine, Cas. I’ll just wait here then, I’ll see you when you’re done.” 
They disappeared.
 Dean had hardly had time to sit down in an armchair and pick up an old car magazine to flick through while he waited before the nurse came running back into the waiting room.
“Mr. Winchester! You need to speak to your husband!” She turned and ran back the way she had come.
Dean felt himself go red. His husband? He hadn’t really thought about the implications when he had booked the appointment and stated that it was for Castiel Winchester, but it wasn’t like Cas had a last name, so giving his own had seemed like the only option. Shaking himself out of his stupor, he got up and followed the nurse. 
When Dean got to the room, Cas and the dentist stood on different sides of it, glaring at each other. The dentist was clutching at her hand.
“Dean. This woman is dangerous! She has weapons and she tried to use them on me.”
“He bit me!”
Dean blinked a couple of times, trying to process the strange situation. “Sorry about that. I’ll talk to him” he said to the dentist. He turned to Cas and lowered his voice “Cas, come on, man. We talked about this, about what happens at the dentist’s.”
Cas stared grumpily at him. “I don’t like it.”
“No one likes it. Will you be all right if I stay here with you?”
Cas nodded. 
“Is that okay?” he asked the nurse. She nodded and brought him a stool so that he could sit next to the patient’s chair. 
“Cas, come on, angel, get back in the chair.” Cas climbed back, while the dentist put a bandaid on her hand. When she turned around, Dean thought that Cas looked so small and frightened in that big chair that he acted on instinct, taking Cas’ slightly clammy hand in his own.
 Half an hour later, they walked back into the waiting room, still hand in hand. The dentist had removed one of Cas’ teeth, fixed cavities in two others, and then thoroughly cleaned his teeth. Cas had gotten a new appointment in a couple of weeks to get a replacement tooth put in. Dean was really glad that he had brought several of their old fraudulent credit cards. This was going to be expensive, it wasn’t like you could get health insurance as a hunter.
When he handed one of the cards over to the receptionist to pay for the visit, Cas still clung to him, staring at him. He did seem to be a little out of it. Maybe the pain killers the dentist had given him before the extraction had hit him harder than Dean thought?
“Dean, how are you so pretty? You have so many freckles! I’m going to count them now!”
Right. Cas wasn’t just a little out of it, he was a lot out of it. Dean flushed and the receptionist giggled as she handed him the receipt. 
“Okay, let’s get you home, you weirdo.”
They turned to the elevator, the receptionist was still giggling, and Cas was still trying to count Dean’s freckles. Dean sighed. He was just happy that Sam wasn’t there, he would have laughed himself to an aneurysm by now. Cas had lost track of his counting while walking and was now pouting. Dean placed a hand on the small of his back and steered him into the elevator, he refused to look at Cas.
When they stepped out onto the street, Dean realized that Cas had been strangely quiet for someone who was trying to count someone else’s freckles. He looked at Cas who made some very weird facial expressions, it looked almost like he was trying to lick his own teeth.
“Cas? What are you doing?”
“Dean. Dean, my teeth. They are so smooth! Sooo smooth. You should feel them!”
And before he could realize what was happening, Cas threw himself at Dean, pressing his lips against Dean’s. He had rarely felt so shocked in his life, this was very far from all the scenarios he had dreamed about when thinking about kissing Cas for the first time. While his body didn’t want anything other than to respond to Cas’ soft lips, there was still a part of his brain that knew that this was wrong right now. It felt like he’d never done anything so difficult as to pull away from Cas’ persistent kiss.
“Whoa! Whoa there! While I absolutely love what’s happening here, I’m not gonna kiss you when you’re this loopy. Let’s do it for real instead when you’re back to being your sane self again. Okay?” He looked down at Cas and added “or as sane as you usually are anyway.”
He finally managed to get them both into the Impala. The ride home was silent. 
 When they at last pulled into the bunker’s garage, Dean parked and got out of the car. He walked around to the passenger’s seat and opened the door, waiting for Cas to step out. Cas did so and then he stood very still looking down at the floor, opening and closing his mouth a few times.
“Thank you for coming with me, Dean. I appreciate it.”
“Of course, Cas. Are you back to being yourself now?”
Cas nodded. “Yes. I believe so.”
“Good.” He stepped into Cas’ space and pulled him flush against himself. He pushed Cas against the side of the Impala and kissed him. Their lips moved against each other, and when their mouths opened, Dean couldn’t help but laugh into the kiss. Cas had been right.  
His teeth were really smooth.
