Bold Will Hold

Bold Will Hold by DarcyDelaney (@darcydelaney) Rating: Mature Word Count: 74k

All Dean Winchester wants is to open his own tattoo shop, which is why he signs up for Tattoo Gods, a tattooing reality show with a $100,000 grand prize. He also wants to avoid making an ass of himself on national TV, and he definitely wants to avoid falling for Cas Novak, another artist who’s not only his direct competitor, but someone he’s had an unspoken rivalry with since before he started apprenticing, and is just as ridiculously talented as he is stunning (and, as Dean comes to find out, kind and funny and passionate and sincere). Is that too much to ask? Apparently, yes. Yes, it is.

Dean Winchester, tattoo artist? Yes, please, sign me up immediately. Bold Will Hold does not hesitate to deliver. I could only think of one word as I was reading this fic, and that is immersive. Even if you don’t know much about tattooing, it doesn’t matter, This fic is written so well, you don’t need to spend any time in a tattoo shop to get a feel for the dynamic of one, and all the thought process that goes into working in one too. Dean is an artist in this fic, more than anything, and it's not a trope we get enough of in this fandom. 

This fic centers around Dean’s journey as an artist, in the pursuit of following his dream of owning his own shop and being the best tattoo artist he can be in the process. Despite his faltering confidence, Dean applies and earns a spot to contend on a tattoo reality show, the winner of which takes home one hundred grand, an amount of money that would more than help make his dreams a reality. 

He isn’t expecting Cas to show up in his life (again) and become his closest competitor. He certainly isn’t expecting their rivalry to turn into anything more. As the story progresses, we get a wonderful look at both of our favorites as they begin to drop their walls, and figure out that first impressions don’t always have to define a relationship. 

One of my favorite things about this fic is the great supporting cast, each glimpse of our favorites well written and in character and enriching the story with every interaction. This fic also handles the reality show aspect really well, which isn’t always easy to do. Overall, it's a great read, with incredible descriptions of art and ink, and another great depiction of our two favorite guys falling in love.

It always drives me insane, but especially now, how people dismiss 12 and Clara as romantic canon or eventually subtextually romantic. We've seen the Doctor in Canon romantic love. We've seen the Doctor in Canon best friends situations.

With his arguably biggest (based on how insane the fandom and writers, especially rtd are/cling onto) nu who love interest, Rose. When she's in danger he's fawning and doesn't bend. 10, especially isn't furloughed in morals as much as 12. (Or 9, but this is a different talk for another day.) He's not laying awake thinking if he's good or evil. He just accepts and goes.

When Rose and the whole Doomsday plot happens, all 10 does is burn up a sun to say good-bye. (Then treat Martha like shit until uWu Donna time.)

With Clara, he frequently goes to the next level. Hell, most his words in seasons 8 and 9 is her name! He's jealous in a way he never was with Mickey at Danny. He's constantly at odds with himself. He feels and acts legitimately threatened.

When she is finally dying. He loses all pretense, gives into his urges and threatens genocide, holds hostage, coups and kills. He is willing to undo his past of saving Gallifrey from falling, to save her. Keep her. Hold her.

It's only when Clara reels him in does he think differently. Go a different route. Be nicer. Chose a shard of kindness to the rest of the universe.

They both brought out the best and worst in each other until the bitter end.

"Friendship" my ass. That's real, toxic, deep all-consuming love.
