Dean always being his secretive and insecure self meticulously hides all his sketches from everybody.
Until Cas appears in the picture. Both figuratively and literally.
It's some diner in the middle of nowhere (as usual) and Dean's alone for the time being and finally he can distract himself from the impending doom (as usual) with sketching.
Cas appears behind him with a quiet flutter and peers over his shoulder. And Dean bristles, shields the tiny wrinkled paper with his hands because "don't you have better things to do than creep on me."
Cas is looking calmly at him because "Dean. People have always made art since the beginnings of their creation. For protection, identification, aesthetics, plain fun. For different reasons. Why are you ashamed of yours."
Then Dean moves his hand for a waitress to squeeze past his table and Cas sees that it's him in the sketch and. Oh.
Sketched with mismatched colored pencils by this tired (blushing?) human - is no comparison to being painted in chapels among his siblings. It's infinitely better.
While Cas is just standing, awed, Dean crumples the paper and throws it in the bin on the way out of the diner in an attempt to run from everything at once.
The sketch comes back to him.
Dean finds it in a pocket of the wet and dirty trenchcoat that he's just fished out of the water. The sketch somehow looks unaffected by the time spent folded (neatly) in a pocket. It's not even particularly wet. Unlike Dean's face.
He puts it carefully in his own pocket, close to his heart. Once they bring Cas back he's showing him the sketchbooks.

Quick question! Are they soulless constantly in pain and suffer 25/8 or are they just kinda „eh; guess I‘m rotting“ like zombies or are they infinitely searching for something that feels like it’s missing (due to the no soul thing)?
What is the whole soulless experience like?
:D! oh all of the above though only the first is hardbaked into their nonexistent dna!! stuck in a human body that's unable to process sensory input the right way & still tethered to the invisible moon via their blood. granted, it's not burning blood jail 900% of the time, sometimes it's just an uncanny itch, random muscle aches, spasms, tingling nerves that sputter and spark; sometimes it's like nothing is wrong at all (esp prevalent with gray who will only notice some minor ache in response to linnea's touch driving it out of him <3 ofc that only makes it more painful when she withholds her cure, esp esp when she's in the mood 2 make him worse on purpose ww) this ask is getting away from me help
camp Rotting For Sport is mostly sky content as she heads towards soulless existence via blood rot/nascent pain (shoutout to dream game :)🔪) sorry babygirl say goodbye to your hard-won strength control we are unlocking the birthright you never wanted </3
nd the 'searching for something thats missing' is mostly a consequence of the condition nd manifests differently for all of them!! faye is chronically homesick for the invisible moon she just wants to go back n quit existence, less so because of the pain (it isn't helping, sure) but she's the only one who finds a weird solace in it. the proof of her origin, her destination calling out to her!! and gray is the direct opposite, violently chasing any human feeling and desire, compounded by the fact that linn indulges in life so brilliantly she has so much fun!! but it's russian roulette whether or not he can partake in the same way; longing to eat but unable to hold food down. longing to sleep but never rested. etc etc the list is longer than i'm willing to engage him as a complex character rather than the guy in the 10 of swords card 💀
long story short, being soulless sucks as much as any chronic illness sucks but they're very good at making the worst of it too <3

What about 1 & 6 for the writer ask meme?
do you know how you want the story to end when you start, or are you just stumbling through the figurative wilderness hoping to find a road?
generally i start writing cuz i get an idea for a specific scene, & sometimes either that scene is the whole fic or writing it leads easily to the other couple scenes that make the whole fic, so in that sense i know the ending. otherwise no, i have no idea where i'm going. i do almost always outline! but i'll start an outline to figure out where the fic ends
filt is actually maybe the sole outlier where i did know the ending (of the series, once i started the second part & plot appeared) almost immediately, & then had to backtrack how to get there. on g-d i WILL get cody to hold a baby
do you have any kind of consistent writing schedule or just hoping for the best?
i do not have a consistent eating schedule rn, let alone anything else. i wld like to write more regularly, but i probly need to be on adhd meds to manage it. also like i need fic to be a thing i do for fun or the rats in my brain'll start to throw a tantrum y'know

My Family Coat of Arms Ties In The Back
Does anyone in my family suffer from mental illness? No. In fact, we seem to rather enjoy it. Shall I talk about my crazy deceased great aunts? Which one first? Maybe the one who had 18 cats ( and she didn’t even like felines) or the one who drank Listerine daily as an alcoholic beverage.( she swallowed it.) I have had a lifelong battle with anxiety and complex ptsd. So I’m no great hell either. However my coping mechanisms include making people laugh and telling great stories and making art. So there’s that, Anyways. Sometimes my sense of humour is rather dark. I wonder why.
