Summary:

Five years ago, an accident happened that changed the course of Sam Winchester’s life – and in turn, the life of his brother, Dean, and the Winchester family. Dean wasn’t sure how to deal with the “after,” so he distanced himself from his brother at a time when Sam needed him the most. Now, at Sam’s invitation, Dean has decided to visit him in Boston, where he’s been living on his own. He expects his brother to be struggling, but is surprised to learn that he’s not only surviving, but thriving. Sam has two jobs, graduate school, and amazing friends – including an attractive interpreter named Cas – and although Dean has had some success in his chosen career, he longs for the true happiness Sam has. When Dean seeks Cas’ help to reconnect with his brother, Cas eventually agrees but Dean finds that his usual way of dealing with things won’t work with the captivating man who is firmly in Sam’s corner, and he will have to learn much more than a new language. Dean’s journey forces all three men to confront themselves, and eventually teaches them about assumptions, friendship, and love.

Told from three perspectives, this is a story about love, acceptance, and learning what it truly means to listen.

MDMA Makes Octopuses Want to Mingle, Too

0ct0pus:

I didn’t write for a while, but this article needed to be shared 🙂

sidenote: MDMA, the active principle in ecstasy, is a drug well known for boosting emotional empathy and prosocial behaviour in humans (and also to boost energy).

---

In short, an octopus researcher at the University of Chicago gave some MDMA to a bunch of octopuses and witnessed that the effects were similar to the ones in human. That is, the octopuses showed prosocial behaviours that go against their nature (indeed, octopuses are usually asocial/like to be alone, except when they are trying to mate). 

This is interesting not only because these octopuses don’t normally behave this way, but also because the last common ancestor we shared was probably some wormlike thing between 500 and 750 million years ago […]

These findings might tell us a lot about how “ancient neurotransmitter systems are shared across vertebrate and invertebrate species.”

How fascinating !

He feels sad these days, he is mourning a loss, not of what was lived, but the loss of what could have been but never was, because they took her away too soon. She didn’t deserve what happened to her, she brought light to this sad world full of death and pain. but he always loses the ones close to him, doesn’t him?

He thinks about her everyday, about her long, soft brown hair, about her smile, her beautiful honest eyes, He thinks about those lips he regrets don’t having kissed when he had the chance. He tries really hard not to think about her laying in the morgue.

Sastiel Love Week: Just couple things™

(kinda early today as I got out of work early 😀 I hope you like cuteness.)

Neither Winchester tended to make much of his respective Birthday. Growing up on the road meant that there was little time or resource to really celebrate them. There might have been a cupcake here, or a bottle of beer there, but neither Sam or Dean had ever felt like doing much on their Birthdays. At least when they had been on the road.

But in those times when they had homes (Stanford for Sam, or Lisa’s for Dean) they had celebrated like everyone else. Now with the Bunker all to themselves, plus an angel that they were always super happy to induct into human rituals, Sam and Dean were celebrating Birthdays.

One year, Castiel wanted to surprise Sam on his Birthday. But he really didn’t know what to do. So he talked with Dean about how he should go about this. Asked Dean how he thought Cas should surprise his boyfriend on such a special day. It took some choking on beer and a few tears, but Dean managed to sensibly (just about) detail what a good Birthday surprise or two might look like.

Blowjob. Breakfast in bed (“Gotta be pancakes, with syrup and bacon. Yep. And coffee.”). A really thoughtful present that Sam wouldn’t think to buy for himself. And going out for a nice meal.

Castiel had a pretty good idea of how to go about three of those four things. But he struggled with the idea of getting Sam a present he would really want. Sam wasn’t one for accumulating things, the most he collected was books of magic and monster lore.

So Castiel decided to study Sam. Observe what he seemed to like, over the course of several weeks. He found that Sam liked beer and green salads. A good book. French cinema. New shirts. All things that Sam bought for himself as they were very everyday things.

But then one day Castiel decided to join Sam on one of his morning runs. From the Bunker, they moved into the town of Lebanon along its streets. Making their way to the place that Castiel knew had a park.

“Um, thanks for coming out with me,” Sam said nervously as he stretched in the park.

“It is nice to have done so,” Castiel replied. He kept his eyes on his surroundings and Sam, watching where Sam looked.

And then Cas saw it. Sam was looking out across the grass and paths, to several dog owners who had their hounds out for a morning walk. Looking at the dogs, Sam’s face had grown soft and fond. One particular dog recognized Sam and came over to them for head scratches.

Castiel watched the joy playing with the dog brought to Sam. And he knew what he had to do.

Two weeks later, which included a lengthy conversation with Dean and the possibility of Sam finding out about his surprise ahead of time—it was finally Sam’s Birthday.

Working through the blowjob with adept ease and bringing Sam the breakfast Dean had helped Cas make, Castiel waited until Sam had eaten, washed and dressed. Finally it was time.

They walked towards the map room, Cas with the intention of driving Sam a few towns over to a nice restaurant, supposedly, when a bark sounded through the map room. Claws scurried over the tiles and suddenly Sam and Cas were greeted by an Australian sheepdog puppy.

She wasn’t that old, but the puppy ran to Sam and started sniffing at him and yelping happily.

“Oh my gosh, Cas!” Sam scooped up the puppy into his arms.

“Happy Birthday, Sam,” Cas said.

Sam hugged Cas and the puppy.

In the weeks, months and years to come, little Roxy would become a big part of Sam and Castiel’s lives (and Dean’s). Nothing certainly beat a lazy Sunday walk in Fall sunshine.

I love cuteness, Nonny~ ^__________________^

PUPPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“hey, hey, hey. look at me, look at me. it’s okay.” Can you write something with Sam having a panic attack? Maybe during the hiatus? You rock!

itsaboutsam:

anonymous asked: “let’s get you cleaned up.” Something with Sam and jack bonding

Sam wasn’t sure how it happened. He’d caught Jack’s punch with one hand and swung with the other, and then his kid staggered back with blood pouring from his nose.
