I love making up scenarios so here's my vision for s5.
I'm gonna leave out the supernatural stuff for the majority because 1) my blog is about byler 2) my brain is obsessed with byler 3) I have no ideas for that and 4) byler.
after the timeskip mike and el are back together again. their relationship doesn't work as usual
this leads to them fighting again and mike says "but didn't you need me?"
to which el responds "I don't need anyone, it has always been you needing me and we both know it"
and mike is so so fucking confused bc of the painting so he says "and what about the painting"
he expects el to say something but she just says "I have no idea what you're talking about"
after a few moments of disbelief he realizes she's not lying and wants to confront will
they have a fight because will obviously doesn't want to say why he lied while mike is mad that he lied to him and now doesn't even know what to believe anymore
they don't even have the time to stay mad at each other though because vecna uses mike's confusion / disappointment + the amount of trauma that he's carrying to target him
nobody knows mike's favorite song n we're in apocalyptic times so perhaps no-one has even a walkman with them and El has been taken by the government again
nobody knows what to do, but then dustin remembers will's connection to the UD and they decide to give it a try
will gets inside mike's mind to find him but instead of finding him in a happy memory it's 1984 and he's near his garage again
will gets nervous because he remembers perfectly that day, he is surprised mike does too though
- didn't expect to find you here
- will? are- are you real? how did you get here?
- it's a long story, hurry up, let's get out of here. I'll explain it to you once we're back
- I have no idea how to get out of here though
- oh. me neither. guess we're fucked then
- I guess.
- so, is this your happy memory?
- no, not at all, it's actually one of my worst memories...
- then why did you get there?
- I don't know, I guess it was the first thing that came to my mind
-oh. ok
- I guess I was sort of nostalgic too, things were easier back then...
- you mean with el?
- no, no, I meant with me actually, 'guess I was more naïve once
a beat
- you know, I never told you but I actually had written you a letter for when I came to cali
- oh. why didn't you give it to me then?
- I don't know...
- you could still give it to me now if you wanted to...
mike can hear his own heartbeat, is he really doing this now out of every moment? fuck it, he might not even get out of this alive, who cares anymore -
- mike? did you hear that too?
the voices are getting louder, it's everyone in hawkins telling mike to wake up. they get out of the gate.
they get out and will wakes up, they did it but they don't know how
end part one
mike and will go back to ignoring each other once again, things are awkward and they don't know how to act around each other
then, right when everyone thinks things are finally getting better, BAM! will gets vecna'd
mike, desperate, takes out the fucking letter and reads it out loud, thinking it might be the last time will gets to hear him
meanwhile vecna is saying shit like "nobody cares about you, they think you're a mistake, they didn't even remember your birthday"
but mike reading his letter to will is opening a gate so will doesn't care and he keeps running
happy birthday, will is how mike's letter ends, and will gets out
willel siblings defeat vecna together and, over the ruins of hawkins, the sun rises again, the sky painted by yellows and blues
mike and el hug each other, "I thought I had lost you" says mike "you never did" says her "I still dump your ass though" she adds, and they both laugh
from behind el appears will too, she gently pushes mike towards him "come on, go, you two clearly need to talk", she gives him a thumbs up
"uhm, hi" says mike, "hi"
- so, about the painting...
- yeah, I'm sorry about that...
- no, no you don't have to apologize! I get it you were just trying to make me feel better
- no, you're right, I actually did lie
- what do you mean?
- you know, when I said all those things about el. they weren't actually about el, they were about me
mike's breath catches "oh"
"it has been you this whole time will. it has always been you"
THEY FUCKING KISS AND I'M SCREAMING FROM MY COUCH
the grass grows again from the soil and the world seems to be living again
speaking of living, lucas comes in running to inform everyone that max has woken up, el's face lights up
elmax reunite
mega huge ass time skip
it's 2024, they are all old now, we see mike has become a writer, he lives in his apartment in NYC with will, they're releasing their own comic: stranger things

you stayed ("whenever you're ready baby girl" alt ending)
𝓲𝓶𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓷𝓮 - you stayed ("whenever you're ready baby girl" alt ending)
𝔀𝓪𝓻𝓷𝓲𝓷𝓰𝓼 - happy ending, girl dad x misha, terminal illness, crying, flashbacks
𝓭𝓮𝓼𝓬𝓻𝓲𝓹𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷 - whilst misha and elouisa collins' eldest little girl always seemed to draw the short straw in her life, what if she actually survived and beat her cancer? what if she actually never died after the new york supernatural convention? what if she made it to her tenth birthday and every other birthday after that? what if her short straws began to grow back healthy again in the same way she had? what if she got to see her dad's final season five years later?
𝓪𝓾𝓽𝓱𝓸𝓻'𝓼 𝓷𝓸𝓽𝓮 - the original version of this was for kian egan from westlife and because i have also done it for misha i need to also come out with the part two alternate ending. i know she's nine in the first part and five years after that would make her like fourteen but, i'm gonna lowkey bump her age up to eighteen due to the conventions they had after coronavirus cleared up. so even though the original timeline is season ten which would line up with her being fourteen when the show came to its end, i wanna make her newly turn eighteen so sorry for being confusing but that's why she's older by more than five or so years. no song will be used in this but flashbacks from the original one-shot will be in italics, present in normal font and like the original, it'll be written in lowercase.
masterlist read part one here!
- - -
willow collins was eight-years-old when she was diagnosed with cancer. she already wasn't considered a "normal kid" because of who were parents, misha collins and elouisa collins are. however, the moment the young girl and her parents heard the news of the heartbreaking diagnosis, they knew exactly how the press and other kids willow's age would react. to the other kids and everyone else, not only did willow's parents and their fame make the girl weird but her new cancer diagnosis made her even weirder and as though she was an exhibit in a museum.
when willow was nine-years-old when her dad and his supernatural cast were starting their season ten convention circuit before going on hiatus before the next season, there was a moment. during the first of five conventions in new york, chicago, hawaii, houston and dallas that everyone, including willow herself, thought she wasn't going to make it through the entire day and wake up the next morning. but, she did wake up the next morning. she opened her eyes the next morning and cried out for her daddy who was in new york. in a rage of emotions, danneel ackles, who is the wife of misha's castmate jensen ackles, rang misha in a frenzy of her own emotions.
thinking the worst, misha was mere seconds away from dropping everything at new york's auditorium. that was until he heard the very voice he had thought, imagined, he would never hear again. he then stopped for a moment and took that as his chance to just breathe. his little girl was alive and she was okay.
willow's pov | flashback to cancer diagnosis
i could tell my parents felt like the walls in the doctor's office was closing in on them. they, like me, never imagined to be getting this news. after all, it was just supposed to be just another regular hospital trip for me, eight-year-old willow collins.
whilst i wasn't in the office with my parents, whilst my doctor, dr phelps, told them, i could still hear them. especially when it's realised that the hospital is never as soundproof as one thinks, "...mr collins? misha, did you hear what i just told you?" dr phelps questioned my dad, who until now had never really called him by his first name as dad responded after blinking a couple of times
"no, sorry, what did you say? could you please repeat that?" it was obvious that dad was still so far away from dr phelps' office mentally, doing his best to not tune out a second time since it was important news that dr phelps was telling my parents
"i was saying that, with willow's recent diagnosis of terminal cancer, she can still try chemotherapy and maybe a little bit of radiotherapy but we are not certain that it'll work in the way it usually would if we had seen it earlier..."
ahh, yes, i could see the wheels in my dad's head start to turn as he realised what the conversation was about. his eldest daughter, me, had just been diagnosed with terminal cancer and were having a conversation about the roads of treatment for me. and just how successful they could be for a small eight-year-old who had many ailments before this new one. as i watched from the waiting room, i could tell that dad could feel a cry building in his throat, mom also feeling it as well, holding his hand tightly as i knew they both wished they were anywhere but in dr phelps' office at this moment.
i watched as dad continued the conversation, "...ah, umm, so, theoretically speaking, if our daughter...willow, was to undergo a round or couple of chemotherapy and maybe radiotherapy, how long would you say we'd have her with us, realistically?" dad gulped as i watched the way he fiddled with the scrunched up tissue in his palm as he squeezed mom's hand with his other hand
dr phelps paused before he continued, "now, mr collins, i really couldn't tell you because this is so new and so late in finding the cancer in willow's system that we truly have no idea how long it could potentially prolong her life but, once the chemo and radiotherapy do start, then we can start estimating things like that..." dr phelps responded as i could tell that dad felt his heart shatter
mom feeling like she was holding all of his heart and hers together. dad's face almost crumbling as he then turned away from the dr when he caught a glimpse of me. which i quickly turned my head to make it seem as though i was in conversation with my uncles jared and jensen, who had lovingly put their hands up to take care of me whilst uncle rob and uncle rich put their hand up to take care of my baby siblings, west and maison.
hesitating to turn his head back around, he quickly did so before continuing on, making me turn to look back at my parents and dr phelps, "...she doesn't deserve this..." hearing my dad so heartbroken and his voice so croaky from his tears was not something i'd ever heard before as he brought his tissue up to cover his face, mom comforting him whilst dr phelps sighed solemnly
"...no, she doesn't misha, no one her age does. she's so young but, unfortunately, these things happen and it's absolutely cruel but i promise, we'll do everything we can to make sure your little girl has the best chance of surviving and beating her cancer since she was so strong during all of her other surgeries and ailments," dr phelps was confident in the idea that once again, i was going to survive another diagnosis
but heartbreakingly, i could tell mom and dad thought otherwise and it seemed as though, in my eyes, i too thought the same thing as my parents.
as mom, dad and dr phelps continued to chat, i silently slipped my hands into both of uncle jared and uncle jensen's hands since i was sat in the middle of them. i was absolutely terrified and it didn't take a genius for uncle jared and uncle jensen to figure it out either and the looks we shared with each other weren't as helpful as we hoped they'd be.
present time
as i remebered the day i was diagnosed, i remembered that i didn't cry like i had imagined myself i would have. because if you know my family well, most especially my dad as well as my uncle jared, we're literally the definition of crybabies. like, to the point where it's been mentioned in interviews before that my dad is so emotional and fragile that he cries at the opening of a hat and that uncle jared is very similar that is also a crier. so the fact i didn't cry after my cancer diagnosis is something i'm just realising years later at nearly nineteen years old and that's insane to me. completely insane because at eighteen, nearly nineteen, i'm still the crybaby that i was until my cancer diagnosis.
right now, i was hanging out with my younger sister maison. she was only three, an actual toddler, when i was going through the cancer and it's something that she genuinely does not remember well whereas our brother, west, who was four, has some lingers of memories here and there. i have been told though that there are times that she does have vague memories and it makes her really upset and panicky. but what makes her upset and panicky is because she can't remember everything about it, only small little pieces of it. since then, mom and dad did try for another baby but, unfortunately they weren't able to and they miscarried so it's still just me, westy and maison but that's okay. but, going back to hanging out with maison, we were literally just getting ready to head out for a surf since i could drive and had my own car now. and, because of that, i could drive us down since both mom and dad were at work, nan (dad's mum) taking care of west for the day. everything was completely fine and happy as maison and i got ready separately (not so obviously as we usually do except for when we're getting ready for the beach) but, as i was taking a bit longer, maison had knocked on my door to check in on me. i was no longer fine and happy. as i slipped on my bikini and reached up to grab my wetsuit, i had caught a glimpse of all my scars and my porthole where i would get my chemo put in. it was really the first time i had seen it since i had been named in remission and by every technicality, cancer-free. and i hadn't realised how traumatising and ugly the scars and porthole actually was until this moment. the moment which i actually took a moment to stop and look at it after actively avoiding my glance from it for so many years.
and i cried.
i cried my eyes out nearly nine whole years after my initial diagnosis.
i hadn't cried this much or this hard i don't think since i had told aunty danneel, uncle jensen's wife, that i thought i was going to die during the first convention in new york of supernatural's season ten convention circuit. and obviously, hearing maison knock on my door meant that she had heard me break down into tears. and usually, similar to dad and mom, but especialy dad, i'd usually try to hide it in front of my brother and sister, especially maison. but, this time, i just couldn't. not because i couldn't control my tears but because i needed to stop hiding my emotions from my younger siblings.
after her knock, i heard her voice and it made me smile, "...you okay willow?" she asked as i tearfully giggled, wiping my hand underneath my nose
"you can come in if that's what you're asking maison, my door's unlocked," i tearfully chuckled as i turned away slightly from the door and looked back at myself in my full-length mirror
i then heard my door slightly creek open as maison walked in. she then noticed me in the mirror and her face fell as she saw my tear-stained face. immediately, she rushed over and pulled me in for a hug as she quickly noticed what it was that i was staring at in my reflection. my porthole and other scars being the first thing that started maison's memories of me having cancer whilst she was a toddler.
and then, the next thing she said was the utmost sweetest thing in the world and made me cry even more, "don't let those scars upset you anymore, willow. because they're the reason why i can hug my older sister every day! you may think it's ugly but, i don't. i see them as the reason why you're still alive and got to watch me and westy grow up ! if it's making you so upset to look at it in your bikini, which i think you great in by the way willow, we don't have to go surfing today if it's making you feel a bit icky to do so. we could just instead go for a walk along the beach and go surfing over the weekend with mom, dad and west?" maison sincerely asked as she didn't let me go out of her hug as i smiled, shocked at how this little kid, my little sister was so emotionally intelligent
pulling back out of the hug, tears still streaming down my cheeks but for happier reasons this time, i nodded my head, "that sounds perfect maison, thank you, baby girl! you are such a sweetheart and i love you so much, sweetheart. of course, we can go for a walk on the beach and then go surfing with the family over the weekend. i'll just throw some clothes over the top of my bikini and then we can hit the road, that sound okay maison?" i asked after thanking my sister as she nodded her head, swiftly leaving my room without another question as i then threw on a pair of linen pants and a halter crochet top before grabbing my phone
meeting maison downstairs as she handed me a pair of flip flops, my car keys and handbag, we said farewell to our nan and west. we then got into my car and we drove down to secret beach.
flashback | willow's pov
it was the first of five conventions in different states for supernatural's season ten convention circuit and they were in new york when i thought i'd not wake up the next day. it was during the day that aunty danneel was looking after me when i genuinely thought my life support machine and my body was going to go awol and that i wasn't going to wake up the next morning. i was aboslutely terrified to close my eyes, worried that if i did, i wouldn't wake up tomorrow. suddenly remembering all the other times i was tired and knowing that i'd wake up the next morning. however, more recently, falling asleep and just closing my eyes has been scary for me.
shaking with worry, i reached over to grab aunty danneel's hand which she immediately grabbed, "what's wrong, love?" she asked without hesitation as i tried to calm down as best as i could
"i...i'm so scared to fall asleep, dee. what...what if i don't wake up tomorrow morning?" i whispered fearfully as aunty danneel softened as she held my hand, squeezing it tightly
"oh, darling. don't be scared, i'll stay here, awake with you all night and make sure nothing bad happens to you throughout the night. you are safe sweetpea, aunty danneel's got you!" she whispered as i nodded my head but still didn't want to close my eyes
however, with some more encouragement from aunty danneel and her singing my favourite radio company album, we managed to get me to close my eyes and fall asleep. just hoping, praying, that i was going to be able to open my eyes the next morning.
and i did. i opened my eyes the next morning.
and i cried out for my dad, enough though i knew he wasn't here in austin.
and in a flurry of her own emotions, aunty danneel rushed to grab her phone and ring him.
and i just knew he was ready to drop everything, thinking the worst. ready to leave new york's auditorium when he heard the one voice i think he also thought, imagined, he wouldn't hear again.
i was still alive.
present time | 2022
finally, after what felt like forever, and the hell that was the coronavirus pandemic and constant lockdowns, supernatural was finally able to finish filming and it had aired and conventions were finally safe enough again to do at full capacity. so, here the entire supernatural family were at the dallas auditorium in dallas, texas and it was an emotional moment, that's for sure. and it wasn't just because we were finally able to have conventions again. but because i was eighteen, an age that no one thought i'd be able to reach because of the cancer that i was now in complete remission from. and, it was also actually the anniversary of my first diagnosis back when i was eight years old and i was now eighteen. so, i just knew that at some point in the convention, most likely before or during his panel with uncles jared and jensen that dad was going to talk about it. and then get very emotional over it which would then get me emotional over it all over again.
and, who would've though, i was correct? however, i did not think it would have my dad inviting me up on stage before his panel with uncle jared and jensen but, in all honesty, i didn't care. i grew up with the supernatural fans so i wasn't uncomfortable on the stage so, i went along with it.
smiling, i walked on stage and over to my dad, sitting in the middle of him and uncle jared. getting smooshed into a j2m sandwich has honestly always been my favourite thing about having my dad as part of the cast. even at the age of eighteen, i still enjoyed all the hugs the same way i did when i was a little kid.
dad then grabbed my hand, grabbing the attention of the entire audience. still giving me a shock at how easily he and my supernatural uncles could control the audience. he then introduced his speech before the next question.
"...hey dallas, we still have y'alls attention?!" dad queries, making me giggle as the audience cheer at his question
giving me a smile, he then continues  as the fans waiting for the q&a and to ask them wait patiently, "so, as everyone possibly already knows, this is my eldest daughter, willow, who is eighteen years old..." he trails off as shock ripples through the crowd which makes us all laugh
and that included me too. because, i truly also sometimes forget that i am eighteen.
"...i know, it's crazy to say i have an eighteen-year-old too so, don't worry, it's just as shocking for me as it is for you guys! but umm, that's not the reason why i invited her on stage. the reason why i invited willow on the stage with us for our panel is that, on this very day when she was eight years old, we were told that willow had cancer..." he trailed off as i smiled softly and squeezed his hand tighter as he smiled back, uncle jensen, uncle jared and uncle rob moving closer by as well
taking a deep breath, dad continued, "...and for a while, we didn't think willow would make it through the very beginning, the first convention of our five conventions throughout new york, chicago, hawaii, houston and right here in dallas during our season ten convention circuit back in 2014 after she had turned nine. because, during this time, it seemed as though willow's chemo was not effective anymore. it was during this first convention in new york 2014/15 that she thought she wasn't going to wake up the next morning. i remember because like i already mentioned, we were doing the first of five conventions starting in new york for the celebration of season ten and i got a phone call from danneel, jensen's wife. and immediately, i thought she'd be on the other line in absolute hysterics telling me that willow had died but, she hadn't. she had rung me up because willow had woken up and had cried out for me. hearing my daughter's voice that day, just as i was ready to drop everything and leave new york for my daughter. to then hear that she was okay and that she was still alive was all i needed to know that she was getting better. and that maybe, just maybe, she'd recover and be okay again..." dad once again trailed off as it started to get way too emotional as i smiled, feeling slightly embarrassed as the crowd stayed in utter silence
which is probably why i felt a little bit uncomfortable at the same time. since, they are usually never, the supernatural fans, this quiet when my dad and uncles are on stage.
"...so, for the rest of this panel, willow will remain on stage and if you have any questions for her, feel free to ask them," dad finished explaining and he only had a couple tears streaming down his cheeks as we had a group hug before the questions and panel formally started
like dad already mentioned, i stayed on stage for the rest of the panel and got to get asked and answer some  fan questions which was super cool. and it felt magical and so surreal to be on this side of the stage since i was almost always in the audience when mom and i were at conventions. having the privilege to even be alive and be in complete remission from my cancer. 
then, after i answered a fans question, dad raised his microphone to his mouth and spoke up again. revealing some news that we had only just found out this very morning to the point that, i don't even think he had told uncle jensen, uncle jared and uncle rob or the rest of the attending cast. 
dad smiled brightly as he got everyone's attention as he announced the news, "...this morning, we found out the best news in regards to willow and her cancer. we got told this morning that she is finally in complete remission and has been said to be cancer-free!" he smiled tearfully as i turned around in my chair to see how uncle jensen, uncle jared and uncle rob reacted and it made me teary-eyed
giving me the answer that this was the first time they had been told as well. uncle jared, uncle jensen and uncle rob then hopped off their seats and pulled us in for a group hug in which i started to cry. in pure joy that i was healthy again, my cancer is finally gone and i didn't have to be constantly in the hospital anymore.
the panel then finished and rob and the rest of louden swain began singing the exit song, singing it directly towards me. we then all rushed off so the next actors could come up and do their panel. 
 °∘❉∘°
the convention had finally finished for the day and as we relaxed and enjoyed each other's company, i got a notification saying that dad had posted to his instagram. and i just knew instantly what it was he had posted about. he had been saying all day that he had wanted to also make an instagram post, announcing that i was officially in complete remission and cancer-free. so, he did.

misha when willow was eight-years-old, she was diagnosed with terminal cancer, the uncertainty of her survival. however, all these years later and i have an eighteen-year-old, nearly nineteen, who i got to see reach all of her special milestones. like her tenth birthday, her high school graduation, her eighteenth and soon her nineteenth. she also got to see her brother west and sister maison birthdays, all of their births and will be healthy enough to watch them grow up even more and watch them reach their special milestones. my daughter stayed and it is the biggest joy to say that willow is now in complete remission and cancer-free! i love you so much, willow storm collins. and if i had to watch you go through cancer all over again, i would do it. because it reminded me of truly how special and irreplaceable you are. you were me and mommy's first baby and our first daughter. you know we would do everything and anything to make sure you were your happiest, your healthiest and your best. and i truly do believe that this next season in your life, with you cancer-free and no longer in hospitals constantly, you'll be truly successful in every single thing you wish to do with your life! you are such a strong girl and even though you always say it was me, mom, west and maison as the reasons why you stayed, i truly believe that it was you that made yourself stay. and that it was you that gave you the strength to push through. dad loves you willow, thank you for staying 🤍

willowcollins life since being cancer-free 🤍
~
being a survivor of childhood cancer, amongst other things throughout my life, i knew i wanted to stay and stay alive the moment i was told i had the "big c". since entering complete remission and getting labelled cancer-free, i've graduated high school, i've travelled back and forth between the states and canada. i've turned eighteen, i've gone on nights out with my parents and supernatural uncles and aunties (only to drink mocktails, please, i'm not twenty-one yet). i've gone to concerts and conventions with my cousins and i've surfed. i've been able to live my life in ways that i hadn't been able to do in years and i didn't have to worry about the scars, i didn't have to worry about being tired, i didn't have to worry about the fear of simply closing my eyes and if they'd open the next morning. i've been able to take care of and hang out with my brother and sister west and maison, i've seen them grow up, from when west was four and when maison was three  when i was first diagnosed to when cousins of mine came along later on when i was recovering, to their handsome and gorgeous selves now. when i was battling cancer, i couldn't do the things i can do now. i couldn't surf, i couldn't drink (i mean, that was because i was underage the majority of the time and still am), i couldn't go into physical school and had to do it all online when i wasn't violently ill, i couldn't travel back and forth between the states and canada. i couldn't have an extravagant ninth or tenth for that matter, and i couldn't go to conventions with my supernatural cousins. when i had cancer, i was constantly riddled with the fear and anxiety of not being able to live another day because of how tired, sore and exhausted i was. having to see but also hear your parents, most especially your dad, cry and not being able to help them other than offer a hand or a soft smile for comfort was agonising. the number of times i watched my dad cry as he sat in the same hospital chair over and over again just to make sure i was still breathing through the night is no longer countable since he had done it so many times. the number of times i had to watch my uncles and aunties cry as they also sat and watched to make sure i was still alive throughout the day is immeasurable. thankfully, i didn't have to see my brother and sister or cousins cry a lot, especially because west and maison three and four at the beginning and the other cousins weren't around then. but, at the same token, it makes me feel sick to think about the times when the other cousins were around that they did cry during my cancer battle and i wasn't there to tell them that everything was going to be okay. but now, whenever they do cry or they are upset, i can be there for them straight away. and it was all because i stayed alive and i didn't let myself have my family go through the agony of having to live without me. because i couldn't do that to them, no way.

this was so much fun to write and i am so glad i got to give it a happy ending when the original was so depressing and yes, i know i fucked up the timeline when i originally wrote it on wattpad but, i don't care cause what if this is the one i'm calling canon and the original is the alternate ending? nah jokes, i didn't realise i fucked up the timeline until about halfway through and decided to stick with the changed timeline until i fixed it over here on tumblr!

"You're my first love Stefan, I could never stop loving you."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
elena gilbert had been everything to him from the moment he laid eyes on her. there was no denying the love that the younger salvatore had for her, even after the five years they spent apart. the day stefan turned his back from elena, from mystic falls, was undoubtedly the worst of his life- but it was also a testament to how much he actually cared. him sticking around would have only led to more danger for her. she'd have endured a life with more pain, more darkness, than she'd already dealt with at her young age at the time.
his lifestyle, his baggage, wasn't something he'd wish on his worst enemy much less the love of his life. so he left.
he kept tabs on her of course, and nearly went back a few times at first when she really suffered with the distance between them. but sure enough, elena gilbert began to grow up. she went on with life after him, and he was happy to watch from the sidelines and fight off any supernatural threats to her that she didn't even know existed. at least until that day.
he always regretted not being able to spend her birthdays with her. for every year he missed, he wrote her a letter about how much he adored her and wished things could be different, and every year he hid that note away with his journals, figuring they'd never see the light of day. but that year, it seemed some of the words would never make it to paper but reach the source directly. stefan knew it was risky, but a vampire he'd been tracking was getting dangerously close to her for once and the younger salvatore had to step in.
by the time elena caught him, the other vampire had been buried away deep in the woods and he was just trying to make his escape from her birthday party unnoticed. but when their eyes actually locked at one point, stefan couldn't help himself. it was like coming home again. their conversations were so easy, their chemistry stronger than ever, and elena was as beautiful then as the day he left her. being vampire-free for all those years really agreed with her.
" i'll always love you, too. nothing will ever change that. " the vampire reaches forward to brush his hand against her own innocently. " and i'm glad i've gotten to spend some time with you, especially today. it's good to see you so happy, elena. and it's good to see mystic falls hasn't changed all that much. caroline still throws a hell of a party. " they'd managed to step away from most of the chaos, but it was an impressive turnout that surely elena's friends had a good time putting together for her. " i should let you get back to that party, huh? it's been amazing seeing you, but i should get going. " it was for the best. they both knew that.

You're Always Safe With Me (Alec Volturi x reader)
A/n: Request didn't specify if it was set in new moon, Eclipse, or breaking dawn pt 2. I just took the liberty and made it set after breaking dawn to challenge myself a bit. Not even going to lie I loved writing this piece so much and I really hope you enjoy this.

Requested by: anon
Date Posted: Nov 2, 2021
type: Fluff but Alec gets angry and protective. Bella is a semi-good sister (she just judges a bit too soon)
Word count:3,515
y/n's pov
I can not believe that my life is as weird as it is. My current situation is very strange. My older sister is now my younger sister because she is frozen at eighteen, my niece is turning three but looks to be about thirteen, and Jake is a werewolf. I go away to a private school in Seattle for a year and a half, all this life or death stuff happens.
Like today, for example, I am going to be the only human at Ness' Birthday party. Everyone else is either a vampire or a Wolf. Apparently, part of the Vampire 'royalty' as Bella described them is going to be here to check on Ness' devolvement. They told me I would be nothing but safe in their home but I am not sure how safe I would feel with all these supernatural beings around.
The only reason I am even here is that I made a promise to my niece, and I will NOT be going back on my word. I don't want to even think about the look of disappointment she would give her parents. So I am going to put aside my own fears and suck it up, what is the worst that could happen.
I get there early so I can help Alice set up the house before the guests start to arrive. "Aunite y/n! you're here!" Ness exclaims before running full force at me.
I catch her with a laugh slightly stumbling, "Happy Birthday Beautiful!"
"Thank you! I missed you. You should visit more often." She says looking up at me. She has grown six inches since the last time I saw her two weeks ago at my dad's house.
"I will try my absolute best, I promise," I say as she pulls away from me.
I encounter Alice next, "It's good to see you again Alice. " I state and pull her into a gentle hug.
"It is good to see you too y/n/n!"
"Do you need help with anything Alice?" I ask as we pull away.
I see her Topaz eyes look around, "Um, could you please help me with hanging up the streamers." She asks holding up the Purple and white rolls.
I nod with a smile. "Yeah of course." she hands me the purple one.
I carefully stand on a chair to hang them up, I gently rotate the roll as I give it a bit of slack to create a swirled effect. Alice does the same thing with the white and in no time at all we have them all hung up around the house.
I sit on the couch and watch a bit of Tv with Emmett, "Hey Emmett where is my sister, I have yet to see her, and I have been here for almost an hour?" I ask him
"She when hunting with Jasper, just so she won't have any urges when she sees you, even though she is coming out of the newborn phase she just wants to be extra cautious." He states just as Edward comes through the door.
"Don't worry Y/n you are going to be completely safe, Everyone coming today has fed so none of them will have any urges. We made sure to take that precaution because we knew you were going to be here."
"Thank you Edward I really appreciate it," I state as this information makes me feel a bit better.
I get up when I see my sister come into the living room, "y/n/n you made it!" She exclaims speeding over to me in a blink of an eye.
"Of course Bells I promised Ness I would and I hate going back on my word," I say gently hugging her.
"Hey, Marcus and Alec will be here soon, Aro and Caius had to stay home for trails," Alice says as she walks out of the kitchen.
"Alec is with him?" Bella asks cringing a bit, "Maybe y/n/n should leave before they get here."
I cut in before anyone else could, "Bella I made a promise, I am not going to disappoint my niece. Everything is going to be fine."
"Y/n/n I met these vampires before and they are something I don't want to get you involved in."
"I'm not getting involved I am literally just here for Ness, I could care less about some Vampire, No offense guys."
"None was taken, y/n," Rosalie states setting up the presents.
I see Alice walk over to Bella and whisper some things into her ear. I see the rest of the Cullen Family, Jake, and his friends go ridged. "What happened guys, everything just got tense?" I ask
Alice comes up to me with a nervous smile, bopping my nose with her finger she says,
"It is nothing to worry your little head about."
"Okay if you say so," I reply as Carlisle goes to the door. I can vaguely hear him open it. Then I hear three voices, Carlisles, an older soft-spoken male, and a voice that sounds like the sweetest of summer rain. It is a voice that I could hear for the rest of my life and feel complete.
Before I get to meet the face that the voice belongs to I see Ness run up to me, "Auntie, please come play hide and seek with us!" She exclaims pulling me out to the backyard.
"Jake is seeking first," Ness explains as we get to the group of the boys. She starts to explain the rules to make it fair, "You guys can't shift while playing and you can use your nose or hearing, we want it to be fair for everyone."
I see all the shifters nod before Jake puts his hands over his eyes, he starts to count out loud as we all take off in different directions. I run through the forest, soon find myself in a small clearing with a river. I sit myself down on the ground, my back leaning against the tree. The only way you can see me is if you are in front of me.
I listen to the water flow as I let it relax me. My eyes snap open as I get a strange feeling, one that is like I am not alone. I sink further down into the ground, slowing my breathing. I hear footsteps coming towards where I am. I am soon met with the godliest face I have ever seen and my breath gets caught in my throat. I notice his eyes are the most striking shade of Burgandy, he's a vampire.
The thought of briefly feeling afraid crosses my mind, but before I can go anywhere far he crouches down to my height, "What is a pretty woman like yourself doing out here all alone?" That same beautiful voice I heard in the house asks.
"I'm playing hide and seek with Ness and the Werewolves." I laugh a bit.
He sits down on the ground next to me, "You know Werewolves aren't good company to keep."
"And Vampires are?" I tease him gently bumping my shoulder with his.
"This Vampire is, My name is Alec. What's yours Beautiful?" He asks looking into my eyes.
"Oh, you're the vampire that my sister was worried about me meeting. My name is Y/n Swan I am Bella's younger, wait older, um I don't know; anyway I am Bella's sister. It is nice to meet you." I say putting my hand out so he can shake it.
He gently takes my hand in his and brings my hand to his lips placing a soft kiss onto the back of it, " It is very nice to finally meet you. Why was she worried?" he asks me confused.
"I am not entirely sure, no one would tell me," I state making eye contact.
"I think I might know why and it is a bit frustrating that they think so little of me." he laughs bitterly breaking eye contact.
I can tell that he is slightly upset and I don’t like that he is. I can’t really explain it but I feel connected to this Vampire whom I think my sister judged too harshly, “If it makes you feel any better I don’t feel like I am in danger with you. I can’t really explain nor understand what I am feeling but I don’t think that it is a bad thing.”
“That is good that you feel safe around me because that is all I could ever want from you. We are connected, my master Marcus had seen our strong connection even though you weren’t in the house. No one but Marcus knows that I came out here to introduce myself. I don’t think I would have gotten far if I did.”
“Well, it is my niece’s birthday party. I wouldn’t have stayed hidden for long. What do you mean by Marcus seeing our connection?” I ask confused.
“Marcus has a gift that allows him to see the different bonds between people and how they are connected.”
“That is very cool, Are you gifted Alec?” I question with a soft smile.
“Yes, I can expel a black mist out of my hands that allows me to take away the senses. I can take one or all of them. My twin sister Jane is the opposite of me, she can make you feel an excruciating pain that starts in your brain and spreads throughout your body.”
“Alec your gift sounds fascinating, would you be opposed to using it on me one day?” I ask curiously.
“Absolutely, I will never use my gift on you or let anyone else, except for Aro, I can’t stop him,” Alec states urgently.
I am about to respond when I see him freeze, he stands and gently takes my hand to lift me off of the ground, “Alec what’s-”
“Shh, Someone’s one is here and they were not invited,” Alec whispers out. He moves so he is in front of me, he carefully walks us backward so my back is touching the tree behind me. He stands tall and alert in front of my shielding me from the tree. “I know you are out there.” He calls out into the open forest.
Jake’s pov
I have found everyone except for y/n, she was always the best at playing hide and seek when we were kids. Even with using my wolf abilities, she will be hard to find. I am freeze when I hear Paul’s voice coming through the mind link, ‘Jake you need to get back here to the house, now.’
Without a second thought, I run back to the house as fast as I can only stopping when I see everyone in a circle outside. “What’s going on?” I ask breathing heavily from the run.
“Y/n and Alec are missing, we can't find them,” Bella states anxiously.
My blood starts to boil as I smell the air, “There’s a bigger problem.” I state looking at my pack brother’s who also smell it too.
“What?” Edward asks.
“Get Ness inside, Someone else is in the area and they aren’t supposed to be. “ I state before taking my shirt off running into the woods. I shift along with the rest of the pack as a few of the Cullen’s start to run with us towards the direction of the unwanted tick.
Y/n pov
“Alec am I in danger?” I whisper as his ear is right in front of me, I can’t help but feel scared.
“Not with me around, I will keep you safe Cara Mia.” he whispers back, I see him throw his leather gloves to the ground that I didn’t even realize that he was wearing in the first place.”
I hear a whoosh and feel a gust of cold air run right by me. The hair on the back of my neck stands in attention when I hear a sick voice. “You really shouldn’t make friends with your food.”
“And you are not welcome here,” Alec says angrily, He backs up until his back is close to touching my chest, further shielding me from the unknown vampire.
“I was just passing through when I had to stop because I smelt a snack. Now if you have no intention of eating her then you should let me have her.” The voice suggests
I close my eyes tightly shaking a bit in fear, when I hear Alec hiss out, “Over my undead body you son of a bitch. You can not have her.” I feel myself gripping the material from the back of Alec’s jacket in my fist.
I hear the Vampire laugh evilly, “That won’t work on me, but nice try.” I peek open my eyes to see the black mist flowing out of Alec’s outstretched hands all around the other vampire.
“You’re a shield.” He angrily states.
“Yes and a very good one at that.” the vampire starts to walk closer to us.
Alec pushes into me even further cause the rough bark from the tree to dig into my back a bit. I let out a scream when I see a big wolf tackle the vampire from the side. Throwing it away from Alec and I. I see three more wolves run after the one who tackled the vampire rushing to their aid. After the threat’s focus was somewhere else Alec turns around and gently cups my frightened face in one of his cold hands. “Cara Mia are you okay?”
I shakily nod my head gulping a bit, “Yeah I think so.”
He gently pulls me to his chest hugging me closely, “I am going to get you back to the house okay.” He picks me up bridal style.
I nod my head as I wrap my arms around his shoulders as hiding my face into his neck in fear. I close my eyes as I feel the rush of the air hitting my arms, it is making my hair flow around us. A second later I feel Alec walking up the stairs as I lift my head I see a worried Esme open the door. “What happened is she alright?” She asks Alec as he walks me over to the couch.
He gently sets me down before talking, “She wasn’t hurt, she is just a bit shaken up.”
I feel panicked when I see him start to leave, “Wait!” I exclaim gripping onto his arm before he can leave.
He turns around and bends his knees so he is on my level again, “I will be right back Cara I am just going to get you some water.”
I can tell that he can see the terror in my eyes as I meekly speak, “please stay with me.”
“I will get her some water, Alec you just stay with her, she needs you.” Esme softly states before disappearing into the kitchen.
Alec sits down next to me on the couch and I look at him. He thinks for a second before he opens his arms, “Come here Cara Mia, I’ll hold you.”
I slowly crawl into his lap, he wraps his arms around me protectively. “Nothing is going to happen to you, you are safe.” He states before gently kissing the side of my head.
“Thank you for saving me,” I whisper placing my head into his neck trying to relax my breathing.
“Of course, I will always save you,” he states as Esme places the water onto the coffee table.
“Thank you, Esme.” I softly say.
“You are welcome, dear.” I hear her say before she walks outside.
“I know that you are scared but I need you to drink a bit of water, Can you do that for me?” Alec asks softly reaching for the glass.
“Yeah.” I softly say removing my head from his neck, I do not move off his lap through.
I slowly sip the water before I see my very angry sister storm through the door with Edward and Jake on her heels, “Wait Bella you didn’t let me finish!” Jake yells after her.
She storms up to us and points at Alec, “This is your fault!”
Alec puts his arms around me protectively before he speaks, “Bella what are you talking about!”
“None of this would have happened if you didn’t go to her, that Vampire wouldn’t have heard you!” she yells.
I feel Alec tense and he gently moves me off his lap and onto the couch next to him before he gets up voice booming, “BELLA, YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, IF IT WASN’T FOR ME, WE WOULD BE PLANNING HER FUNERAL RIGHT NOW!”
“YOU ARE WRONG!!” she yells back.
“NO I AM NOT, THE VAMPIRE DIDN’T HEAR ME, HE SMELT HER! IF I WASN’T THERE SHE WOULD BE DEAD AND THAT IS THE BOTTOM LINE.” I see him point back at me then to my sister. I don’t like that he is angry so I get up and put my head on his shoulder holding his hand and wrist in both of mine rubbing comforting circles on the top of his hand. I don’t know if I do this to calm myself down or him but I can tell that it calms us both.
Tumblr media
Bella is about to say something else when Alice pops in, “Bella he’s right, I seen a vision based on Y/n’s decision, I didn’t even think to watch Alec’s.”
I see Bella’s body relax, “Y/n is this true?” her golden eyes softly fall on me.
“Yes it is true, Alec was shielding me between his body and a tree, trying to fight off the vampire. He was a shield so there wasn’t much that could be done to hold him off, that is when the wolves showed up and took care of it. He brought me back here and comforted me.”
Bella sighs before apologizing, “Alec I am sorry I doubted you, I really appreciate you protecting my sister.”
“Bella, I will always protect her, with my life. I am honestly a bit disappointed in almost all of you for thinking so little of me.” He states.
“We realize that now, We are sorry for assuming the worst.” Edward states.
“You all have proven to me that her safety is not at all valued, and because of that if she so wishes I will be taking her back to Volterra with me. I will keep her safe, if I didn’t come today the outcome would have been different. I would be pissed if you let my other half get killed, because with all of your insights I know you knew what she was to me.” Alec states coldly.
Before anyone else can respond I see Ness run out of her room, “Aunite I am so glad you are okay!” She cries as she runs towards us.
I reluctantly let go of Alec’s hand to catch my Niece in my arms, “I am okay Beautiful and it is thanks to Alec and Pack.” I gently rub her back as she calms down. I look at Alec and smile.
Ness lets me go and hugs Alec next, “Thank you for saving my auntie, she is very important to me!”
Alec shocked gently puts his arms around Ness, “She is very important to me too.”
She pulls away and runs to her mom and dad, “Now that is out of the way, Ness why don’t you open your presents? “ I ask trying to turn the attention back to Ness as it is her birthday after all.
“Can we!” she exclaims looking at her mom and dad.
“Yes, I think that is an excellent idea,” Bella says going to grab them.
I take the opportunity to look at Alec, “Did you mean what you said?”
“Every word, if you want to come back home with me, I am willing to take you to Italy.” He states seriously.
“I would really love that Alec only there is one condition,” I respond smiling at him.
“Anything Cara, just say the words and it will be yours.” He responds pulling me to him gently.
“I want to visit regularly, I can’t leave Ness high and dry, she will never forgive us,” I say putting my arms around his neck.
With his arms on my waist, he responds, “I will do my best to make sure you are here for holidays and birthdays.”
“Thank you,” I respond before softly kissing his cold smooth cheek.
I pull away and place one of my arms around his waist to watch Ness open her presents with excitement. I feel him move to stand behind me, he rests his chin on the top of my head. I hold his wrist when he places his arms around me. Today had the potential to be the worst day of my life, but thanks to Alec it had become one of the absolute best. I have a feeling that this is only the beginning as well.

Black Bird - By Sakurakouji Kanoko (8.5/10)
Tumblr media
This is the most gory shoujo series I have ever read. I was in high school when I found volume one in a bookstore, and I felt like I was too young to be reading it at the time. It shocked me. This has everything. An age gap couple, sexual assault, cannibalism, blood fetish scenes, kidnapping, war, murder, and rampant sexism. Black Bird looks like a regular supernatural romance, but please be careful. If you're under eighteen don't read this one.
Misao is the Senka. A human woman with special blood. If a monster eats her they will become immortal. If a monster drinks her blood their wounds will heal, and they will feel pleasure unlike anything they have ever experienced before. If a monster marries her that union will bring prosperity and power to his clan.
Tumblr media
The Senka starts giving off a distinct scent at the age of sixteen. Misao has always been able to see spirits, but after her birthday they start touching her. She's not too bothered by it. The little guys are just annoying. She's a regular pretty girl with decent grades. She wants to date, but she can't forget about her childhood crush. Some of her memories of him are blurry, but she knows he made her happy. When her handsome classmate asks her out she says yes, because she doesn't want to cling to distant memories. She wants to enjoy her high school life.
Tumblr media
Her new boyfriend tries to slice her throat open as soon as they're alone. Blood spurts out everywhere and she stands there in shock. Isayama has been possessed by a weak spirit who wants to eat her flesh so he can become powerful, and immortal. He starts laughing and screaming joyfully when he tastes her blood, and then another man knocks him down.
Tumblr media
The "man" who saves her is Kyou. He is her missing childhood friend. They met when she was ten, and he's older than her. She's sixteen and he's twenty. The story moves forward quickly and Misao goes to university by chapter twenty-five, but yes this is still an age gap relationship. After Kyou kills the demon he licks her wounds to save her life. The taste of her blood turns him on but he loves her enough to hold back. He's not interested in her flesh. He wants to marry her. Then he hypnotizes the principal. He becomes her homeroom teacher to protect her. Misao knows who he is, but they haven't spoken for six years. She doesn't trust him, and she didn't know he was a Tengu. His romantic advances make her very uncomfortable. He says she's his wife, but she hasn't said yes yet. Kyou says she has to sleep with him, or she'll be killed.
That's not a very romantic proposal, but he's serious.
He's not lying.
Tumblr media
Alot of monsters are interested in Kyou and Misao. Kyou is an extremely powerful Tengu. He won the succession battle in order to marry Misao. Only a strong demon can marry the Senka. A weakling would just get killed and replaced with a stronger husband. Misao almost dies about ten times because every powerful woman in the spirit realm seems to be in love with Kyou. After a vampire poisons Misao Kyou has to suck it all out of her body. The scene is gruesome, and suggestive. Some of the chapters contain guro scenes. Kyou is visibly turned on whenever he heals her wounds with his saliva.
(That's not the worst thing that happens by far. The other women that want Kyou make the vampire look like a kitten.)
Tumblr media
The other men that want to marry Misao are not nice. I don't know how to describe them. They're all handsome and violent, like Kyou, but they don't care about her. A silver fox suitor tries to kill Kyou to get him out of the way, so he can kidnap Misao and give her blood to his clan mates. The Senka's blood gives demons a temporary strength boost. It's addictive, and it heals wounds. When a monster marries the Senka his clan usually uses her body relentlessly. Kyou is seen as a fool because he doesn't want to drain his fiance dry and use her like a bottle of steroid pills.
Tumblr media
The romance between Kyou and Misao isn't terrible. They joke around. They flirt and go on dates, but Misao cannot trust him for a long time. She can't believe that Kyou wants her. She thinks he wants the Senka like all of the other monsters, but he doesn't.
He's obsessed with her.
He's willing to kill his best friend for her.
He's willing to kill his brother for her.
He took over his clan to marry her.
It's just hard for her to comprehend all of that, because she's a teenager.
That's totally understandable.
Tumblr media
Usually crying heroines are annoying, but Misao isn't. She deserves to cry and scream. Half of then men around her want to rape and kidnap her. The women want to eat her, and everyone around her manipulates her all the time. She's a kind person, but all of the blood and gore does wear her down. She starts dating Kyou properly after she graduates, and the story gets even more violent.
Tumblr media
Kyou takes his bride to the spirit realm as soon as she agrees to marry him. Then a civil war starts to brew. Kyou's brother, Shou, hates him. He's also in love with Misao, but Kyou has been obsessed with her since the beginning. Kyou kicked his older brother out of the heir position specifically because he wanted to have her. Shou was afraid of Kyou's unrelenting desire, so he lost. When he tries to take back his position he plays dirty. He steals some of Misao's blood, and gives it to the Tengu villagers. Kyou doesn't want to share her blood with the clan, because she is his beloved wife. He doesn't think of her as food, but his people disagree. They want to taste the Senka. Shou uses their hunger to try and take back his position, but then Kyou literally explodes!? He raises his hand and defeats a line of soldiers without blinking. He's been hiding his real strength this whole time, in order to protect Misao. He kept his strength a secret in order to lure out his enemies. The war gets even more gory after that. Misao hugs Shou because she pities him. Shou says he truly loves her, and then Kyou sets his brother on fire.
Wow.
Just wow.
Tumblr media
The other Tengu become more obedient after the one sided slaughter. Kyou didn't kill his best friend in the end, and they form an alliance. All of Misao's other suitors die or get chased away after a brutal stomping, and then she becomes a happy spirit bride.
Kyou is an interesting yandere. He's extremely passionate, and he's a good leader, but underneath that he's ruthless. He regrets all of the killing he had to do to get Misao, but he did it. He couldn't stop himself. He didn't have to dominate everyone, or sacrifice his family, but he did so he could have all of her love. He actually gets jealous when she hugs his dying brother.
Kyou is a monster, but he is gentle by monster standards. The other ones are...ugh...I don't even want to think about what would have happened to her.
Misao got lucky. Without him she would definitely be monster food. The last chapter is happy and peaceful.
If you like horror, traditional Japanese folklore, or gore try this one.

StackedNatural Day 170: 2x20, 13x21
StackedNatural Masterpost: [x]
May 3, 2022
2x20: What Is and What Should Never Be
Written by: Raelle Tucker
Directed by: Eric Kripke
Original air date: May 3, 2007
Plot Synopsis:
Dean is attacked by a Djinn and finds himself in a new reality where his mother is still alive and a mysterious woman holds the key to everything.
Features:
Dean’s djinn dream, Dean’s first hug with his mom since he was four years old, Dean mowing the lawn, El Sol beer, Mary’s birthday, random creepy women following Dean around, the skeletons in Dean’s closet, John Winchester’s grave, a silver knife dipped in lamb’s blood, what’s real and what’s not, what happens when you die in a dream.
My Thoughts:
Boy oh boy this is a classic Deangirl episode. 
This fantasy world is based on his own mind and his deepest dream. All he really wants is stability, his mom to be alive, and to mow the lawn. And despite the fact that this world is supposed to be good enough to trap him there for what would amount to years in the dream, it’s seriously flawed. He and Sam aren’t friends, he’s kind of a deadbeat. Deep down, he doesn’t believe he’s capable or deserving of happiness. Even if he did get to be happy, that comes at the direct cost of the people that he could save if he sucked it up and was miserable for his whole life. Important to note that this is explicitly something his father taught him. 
I love this episode. I wish they had remembered it when they were writing the finale and Dean’s ““happy”” ending. I wish he had had stability, and the chance for a family, and a goddamn lawn of his own to mow. It is literally season 2 and he is already projecting his real wants and needs so strongly. And after all this, fighting to get back to Sam, Sam is going to die in the next episode. Absolutely brutal, and great writing on season 2’s part.
Other honourable mentions to this episode: El Sol Beer’s introduction. The colour transition when Dean kills himself in the dream kicks so much ass, and it’s what I’ve been picturing when I write the secret good supernatural that lives in my head, specifically the end of season 14 when Chuck is revealed as the big bad. 
Notable Lines:
“‘Your happiness for all those people's lives, no contest.’ Right? But why? Why is it my job to save these people? Why do I have to be some kind of hero?”
“I'm sorry that we don't get along. And I wish to hell I could stay and fix it. But I gotta do this. People’s lives depend on it.”
“ You're not real. None of it is.” “It doesn't matter. It's still better than anything you had. It's everything you want. We're a family again.”
“Why is it our job to save everyone? Haven’t we done enough?”
“I wanted to stay so bad. I mean, ever since Dad... all I can think about is how much this job's cost us.”
Laura’s (completely subjective) Episode Rating: 9.9
IMdB Rating: 9.4
13x21: Beat the Devil
Written by: Robert Berens
Directed by: Phil Sgriccia
Original air date: May 3, 2018
Plot Synopsis:
Sam, Dean, Castiel and Gabriel must work together if they have any hope of bringing Mary and Jack home. Meanwhile, Rowena's encounter with Lucifer may alter the outcome of the journey for one of our heroes.
Features:
Family pizza night in Sam’s dream, Gabriel and Rowena hooking up, Lucifer sulking in Gabriel’s trap, Lucifer as an inter-dimensional doors stop, Maggie’s intro, feral monsters, Lucifer getting punted into Apocalypse World, the tunnel to Dayton, Sam getting brutally killed by vampires and then resurrected, reuniting with Mary and Jack 
My Thoughts:
It’s a really violent tonal shift of an episode, huh? We’re going from Gabriel and Rowena hooking up in the library to Sam being resurrected into his literal worst nightmare?
The Gabriel and Rowena scene is so terrible for me because the totally unnecessary voice over gives me intense secondhand embarrassment for which I will NEVER forgive Robert Berens. And this is a minor complaint maybe, but I think it shows a lack of faith in the actors to show what they’re thinking. Gabriel/Rowena is an insane concept to culminate the weird Sabriel-bait they’ve been giving us for the last few episodes of season 13, and thus it is the funniest possible thing to have written, but it does seem jarring in the context of the rest of the episode. 
I guess jarring was the theme for this one, because the same thing happens with Lucifer being the most annoying thing on the planet before busting out and almost killing Rowena. She could have gagged him, but I guess that would have made the plot impossible, so I’ll give it a pass. 
The best part of the episode is Sam’s death and subsequent resurrection - Jensen’s acting is great when he’s dying and great when he finally finds Mary. When he’s resurrected we get a little exploration of his trauma from Lucifer and Hell, and I do enjoy that a lot.
Notable Lines:
“Your wee boy's over there, and he'll be so glad to see his three fathers. Of course, as far as he's concerned, they are his father. And you? You're nothing to him.”
Laura’s (completely subjective) Episode Rating: 8.4
IMdB Rating: 8.9
In Conclusion: It’s a cool Stacked note that we have Dean trapped in a dream with his happy family in 2x20 and Sam waking up from a dream with his happy family in 13x21.

authors note: happy birthday @miyuuraiura !! i am so sorry about this monstrosity being your birthday gift but you asked for it so it's your fault entirely. i was gonna include some context on this story for those who are not rainbow and i but actually i don't think i will.
Tumblr media
seungkwan did what he could to get by. he loved nature, he really did, but sometimes you have to make moral sacrifices to survive. he was a college kid strapped for cash, and when he saw a sign reading “GET RICH QUICK, INVEST IN DEFORESTATION” in the summer going into his freshmen year, he jumped at the opportunity. sure, he would have rather been a freelance singer, hired for bar-mitzvahs and children's parties, but that job market was flooded at the moment.
jisung, on the other hand, had no care for nature. actually, he didn't care for any human things, apart from “banging parties, booze, the boys™, and bitches”. he hated quite a bit about earth, the worst of all to him being college. as a demon, he had no reason to attend university, but after he was summoned in the bathroom of a frat house by the school’s power couple; rainbow and reagan, he felt obliged to follow the two around and keep them company.
for seungkwan, his main job rarely required in person work. he usually just chose plots of land to demolish, and sent plans to local managers. the only time he actually had to knock down any trees himself was during his summer break. he has a part time job of course, but it didn't provide him enough cash to survive. for someone with a job as a deforester, he truly did do what he could to save the environment. he joined his schools environmental club, becoming vice president his sophomore year because of his work with them. he kept his job a secret, not even telling his parents where the influx of cash was coming from. he kept a low profile and went through the motions of life. he didn't have much of a social life, with his small amount of friends being from the environmental club.
han jisung found joy in witnessing his professors and fellow students lose their minds over his lack of effort in class. he did the bare minimum and still passed with flying colors. most of all, it angered his seatmate in earth science, who happened to be none other than boo seungkwan. seungkwan was a hard worker in everything he did, particularly in school. he didn't get the best grades, but by no means was he the worst. averaging a steady B+, seungkwan spent most of his nights studying or working, rarely going to parties and enjoying himself only through one person karaoke rooms.
this fact upset jisung. he didn't know why, but seeing seungkwan so tired every day made him feel sad(? jisung wasn't sure what it made him feel. it was an emotion he had never experienced before. rainbow told him it meant he had a crush. to this he threw an empty soda can at them). not to mention seungkwan’s upsetting karaoke addiction, which he knew all about the danger of because of reagan, who spent most of her weekends drunk and singing. jisung didn’t know why he took such a liking to seungkwan. what he did know was that he was ecstatic to find that they would be paired together for a project. a project that required quite a bit of teamwork, and a lot of after school work sessions.
seungkwan liked to think that he didn’t hate anyone. he hated evil people, like hitler and stalin and jyp, but he didn’t really hate anyone besides the worst of the worst. that was until he experienced jisung. he wasn’t sure why jisung always talked to him when he was trying to take notes in class. he especially wasn’t sure why he was so excited to be partnered up together for the project that was worth 25% of their grade. seungkwan was less than happy to have to cooperate with jisung for an extended period of time, and he was not looking forward to letting him into his dorm room, or going anywhere near jisung’s frat house. seungkwan had no idea what he was pushed into.
Tumblr media
they planned to meet at the cafe on campus at 5:00 pm after class. seungkwan was less than happy. jisung was thrilled. when jisung arrived seungkwan was sitting at a table drinking an americano and working on an english essay. he wasn't sure how to approach him, slowly walked closer before tapping on his shoulder. seungkwan jolted in his seat.
“jesus fuck jisung. you scared the crap out of me,” seungkwan gasped. jisung’s ears flushed as he brought his hand to the back if his neck.
“sorry,” he started, pausing for a second before starting again, “why don't we get started?”. he swung his bag down to the ground as he took a seat. seungkwan offered a small, non genuine smile before pulling out the project’s guidelines.
“let's try to finish this as quickly as possible. im pretty busy and don't have much time to fool around.” seungkwan said. jisung felt his heart drop. did seungkwan really think that little of him? granted, he always dozed off in class but he got his work done on time and in an orderly fashion. he felt his mind begin to wander. if seungkwan felt this way about him now, how would he feel when he found out that jisung was a demon. would seungkwan start to like him if he knew him better? jisung couldn't figure out why he cared so much about how seungkwan perceived him. he had never had an issue with others opinions of him before, so what made seungkwan so different? for some reason, jisung felt the need to connect with seungkwan. if not for himself, then at least to help him let loose.
after working silently on each of their portions of the projects for 3 hours, jisung finally spoke up. “do you want to maybe come to my party next month? well, it's not my party, it's for rainbow’s birthday. i know you're not one for social interaction but it would be cool to see you there. i’ll give you the details if-”
“i’d love to go,” seungkwan cut off jisung’s rambling. to be honest, he wasn't exactly sure what he was agreeing to, but he knew it would shut jisung up, and seungkwan valued his peace and quiet. part of him also just felt downright bad for the other. he seemed to be trying awfully hard to become friends with seungkwan, and he wouldn’t admit it, seungkwan had started to warm up to the boy. he really wasn’t as much of an issue as he had thought before, and was actually really respectful of seungkwan’s wishes. maybe i’ll give him a chance, seungkwan thought before going back to his work.
Tumblr media
over the next month, jisung and seungkwan continued meeting to work on their project. seungkwan was less short with the other, and jisung was still red faced every time seungkwan decided to talk to him, which became quite frequently over the next few weeks. jisung was starting to realize that the feelings he had for seungkwan were not simply platonic, and that he didn’t just want to be friends with him. with the help of rainbow and reagan, he had come to the conclusion that he really, really liked seungkwan, and that he was going to do something about it. remembering that he had invited seungkwan to the party, he devised a plan to not only tell seungkwan about his whole “i’m actually a demon” thing, but also about his true feelings. it wouldn't be easy, but it was what he had to do.
Tumblr media
a month later, seungkwan still wasn’t exactly sure why he had agreed to go to jisungs frat house at 9:00 pm on a saturday night. yet there he was, standing on the front porch of a large house, wondering if he should bite the bullet and walk in, or spare himself and leave right then. he didn't get a choice, however, as rainbow and reagan stepped out of the house giggling while clutching onto each other. both stopped in their tracks when they saw seungkwan. the couple and seungkwan stared at each other for a good minute before seungkwan shook himself from his trance.
“hey rainbow!” seungkwan started, “and reagan too. i know we aren’t super close, but jisung invited me and i thought i’d just drop by and wish you a happy birthday.” he passed her a birthday card filled with $50 bucks and then turned to leave. “i’ll leave you guys now. have a great birthday!” before seungkwan could get very far, however, rainbow grabbed him by the arm.
“hey, i’d love if you’d stay! at least go say hi to jisung. i’m sure he’d like to see you,” she said, silently making note to have jisung pay her back for being a great wingwoman.
“he’s probably hiding in the second floor bathroom. if you don't see him in there, just say his name three times in front of the mirror. he’ll appear.” reagan explained. seungkwan thought she was joking. how wrong he was.
following his entrance to the house, he had to refuse not one, not two, but three different people who were looking to give him bottles or cups of something which seungkwan presumed to be various types of alcohol. navigating through the house was difficult, reaching the stairs to the second floor only after running into numerous people borderline fucking on two large couches in the living room, a smoke circle taking place in what seungkwan assumed to be a dining room, and a very aggressive makeout session against a wall. once he finally reached the second floor, he had some difficulty finding the bathroom, accidentally walking in on reagan and rainbow, who had miraculously made it upstairs faster than he had.
“if you don’t stop shitting constantly i am going to break up with you! also, stop taking feet pics! it’s weird!” he heard rainbow shout.
“at least i can eat seafood! how does it make your head hurt? you’re the weakest link! that fucking seafood platter was delicious. and you know what, i’m glad i didn’t have to share it with you!” reagan responded. seungkwan quickly shut the door, not wanting to get involved in whatever drunken argument was going on there. after a bit more searching, he finally stumbled across the right room. knocking first to see if anyone was in there, he entered, and to his surprise, nobody was there. jisung was nowhere to be seen. seungkwan reviewed his options. he could a) leave the party, or b) continue to look around the packed house. but there was another option. he thought about it for a second.
“what's the harm in trying,” seungkwan thought out loud, before staring directly into the mirror.
“han jisung, han jisung, han jisung.”
nothing happened. that's what seungkwan thought, until a minute later the lights in the bathroom flickered off and the mirror began to glow. “what. the. fuck,” seungkwan managed to squeak out before falling backwards into the tub. first a leg emerged, then two arms, and finally the rest of jisung’s body.
“i feel like the genie in aladin every time i have to get into a fucking mirror,” jisung complained before seeing seungkwan toppled over. to that view, he jumped down off the counter and moved to help him up. seungkwan, aside from falling, seemed to be reacting well to the whole situation, at least in the sense that instead of freaking out he seemed to be in a state of shock. jisung took this as a good sign, and lifted the motionless body up onto the toilet seat.
“hey seungkwan, you there?” jisung waved his hand in front of seungkwan's face as he slowly came to his senses.
“what kind of twisted party trick was that?” seungkwan asked, pretty seriously. jisung just laughed.
“you summoned me from the mirror. i’m like a funny version of michael jackson except i'm a demon and not a man in the mirror.” jisung explained. seungkwan just stared. “are you ok kwan? do you want me to get you some water?”
“it was… kind of sick.” seungkwan stated. he didn't know why he wasn't scared. under any other circumstance like this one, he probably would have shit his pants. for some reason he felt comfortable around jisung. he felt warm. he felt seen. it was something he hadn't felt before. that's when he realized. he wondered why it took himself to long to figure it out. he never hated jisung. he just didn't know what to do with the fact that he made him feel special, and that he felt as though he belonged when they were together. it had hit him why he was so nervous the whole night, why he had wanted to make such a good impression, and why he was willing to embarrass himself by calling out jisungs name as opposed to just choosing to go home. it was because he loved him.
“can i tell you something?” both of the boys said at the same time. jisung giggled and seungkwan flushed red. **authors note! bonus starts here**
“you first,” seungkwan offered. he wasn't exactly sure he would be able to make it through a sentence without getting any redder than he already was.
jisung took this opportunity to finally get his true feelings out into the air, “i like you… uhh like, i like like you. i have since we first became seatmates. well, i think that's when i've liked you since. i knew whe-”
“you're rambling again,” seungkwan told him. jisung flushed a dark shade of pink. “it's a habit of yours. i think it's cute actually.” seungkwan wasn't sure where his sudden surge of confidence came from, but he was glad it came. he was standing up now, holding jisungs hands in his. jisungs heart was racing a mile a minute as he looked down at their intertwined hands and them back up, catching seungkwan looking directly at his lips. “can… can i kiss you?” seungkwan stuttered out. jisung couldn't find his words, so he opted to just nod.
when their lips connected, seungkwan could have sworn he heard fireworks. he did later find out that someone was setting off a firework in the back yard, but it was the thought that counted. their lips melted together perfectly, and seungkwan wondered why it took him so long to admit his feelings to himself. he could have been kissing jisung for a month before this.
once they finally parted, seungkwan spoke softly, “i like you too. i think that's pretty obvious now but just in case you didn't know.” jisung had the dumbest, most confused face on, and seungkwan had the brightest smile he'd ever had. seungkwan had rendered jisung speechless, for once in his life. not long after, they started kissing again, content with their emotions and their new relationship.
Tumblr media
seungkwan was never one to believe that good things were permanent. he was overdramatic, stubborn, and hated interacting with people outside his small social circle. that was until han jisung came along. he was starting to think that maybe, just maybe, he could let someone else into his life.
jisung was a simple man. well, not a man, but he was simple nonetheless. he liked banging parties, booze, the boys™, and bitches. well maybe there was one more thing he liked. he knew for sure he liked boo seungkwan. maybe he loved him. maybe seungkwan even felt the same way.
-fin
**BONUS**
reagan and rainbow leaned up against the door to eavesdrop on their matchmaking work.
“holy shit!” reagan gasped.
“what is it?? tell me what happened. you're hogging up the door!” rainbow hissed.
“our boy is so grown up,” reagan pretended to cry. “put your goddamn ear up here.” rainbow felt her ear connect with the cold door just as jisung confessed his feelings.
“i like you… uhh like, i like like you. i have since we first became seatmates. well, i think that's when i've liked you since. i knew whe-” his next words were cut off on the girls side of the door as reagan squealed.
“shut your mouth! seungkwans saying something!!” rainbow said, obviously annoyed that reagan was obstructing her ability to hear the exchange.
“can… can i kiss you?” they heard seungkwan say. both looked at each other in shock.
“oh. my. god.” was all rainbow could say.
“i think we should give them some alone time,” reagan suggested as she tugged rainbow down the hall.
“i think we need some alone time for ourselves,” rainbow said as reagan pushed her into a random room and locked the door behind them.
