sabriel⦠to start off the post⦠as per usualā¦
gabriel⦠gabriel⦠listen to him⦠the situation is dire⦠the world is ending⦠he has important lore to shareā¦
anyways, on the topic of uhhh drawing characters uncomfortably close together, these past few days while drawing i think iāve accidentally implied that gabriel is to blame for castiels lack of personal space, which does make me laugh just a little but also im becoming fonder and fonder of the idea.
theyre only human, after all, and humans are pretty good at picking up on each others habits without even realizing
castiel got so used to his brother standing too close to people and touching people that he just mirrors the behavior in a much more awkward way⦠because cas was not well socialized⦠so the only major reference he had was gabriel⦠ok⦠feeling normalā¦
really, this is just me pushing my agenda of touchy gabrielā¦
he leans, he grabs, he pinches n nudges and all that, and cas (and later, sam and dean) are just desensitized to it⦠sorry dean for making you the example for the freakish brothers š
castiel⦠oh castiel⦠thinking about how him being human in this au makes it even weirder that hes always in that trench coatā¦
the stupid idiot brothers that hunt monsters all dayā¦
micah posting this au fills me with whimsy and joy!! touch starved gabriel my beloved <33 sam could be yapping about the most critical piece of information possible and gabriel would just be staring at him barely listening going āuh huh⦠keep talking beautifulā
āwhat (disturbed)ā is TAKING ME OUT the gabe/cas dynamic is always the funniest. autistic cas who needs his trenchcoat mayhaps?? i die for autistic cas in any scenario possible i love him so much
my teensies⦠hello swap au sabrielā¦
i love the idea of wings being a huuge emotion indicator, but humans cant see them so gabriel and castiel dont even knowā but sams wings are often in some way reacting to the things around himā and, unfortunately, that includes the humans they are so very fond ofšš dean knows, though, and he WILL be mocking sam for it, even if his do the same only more subtly
anyways, aside from sabrielposting, i do have other stuff to actually rant about HOORAY! šš
i have been struggling a lot with ideas of after the apocalypse prevention as well as gabe cas childhood, but i think i have ideas that i want to work with
in terms of childhood dynamics, gabriel was not as involved as he could have been with castiel
ā to compare, i think they saw chuck even less than sam and dean saw john in canon, because he also needs to have some sort of relationship with michael and lucifer as well, meaning he was splitting his time among several sonsā michael gaining the most of chucks positive attention until he disappears
michael and lucifer ill talk about in a different post when i start drawing them more šš (and by association, adam, and some ofbthe other angels that are important)
but as kids, gabriel and castiel had a more strained relationship because gabriel was very bitter about being left in the situation they were, so while he loved castiel and still met his basic needs he also spent a lot of time out of the motels trying to separate himself from that responsibility.
this eventually led him to leaving castiel altogether when cas was old enough to manage on his own, and then following into our storyline of castiel tracking down gabriel to help him and so on and so forth
so a lot of their real bonding comes in the later years because of thisšš especially from gabriels end.
as for later plots after stopping the apocalypse, i only have concepts so i cant really elaborate much⦠but imagine me with a big thought bubble over my head at all times while i figure out how to explain it
dean winchester.. oh how i have been neglecting you in this au in favor of sabrielpostingā¦
i want him to play a big role in the stability of heaven, considered a huge asset to them as gods favored soldier (in the way that heās incredibly well trained and loyal, and was held to high standards by god and now by the angels as well)
this makes it so much more of a priority for heaven to get rid of him after he and sam get attached to gabriel and castiel, because if hes fighting against them it would be a bigger issue than if it were any other, weaker angel.
also, a note for him and sam turning on heaven like this, it is what drives THEIR codependency even more, the angels work better in groups, as if they were pack animals. dean and sam go from having hundreds and hundreds of siblings and bonds to only one another as angelsā like, yes, they were super close in heaven already, but they get even more insanely close after
my silliesā¦
ive been getting less hours at work lately, which means i have more time to doodle and ponder, so ermmmm bless my life
jared padalecki and his acting choices around rsj in S13 genuinely baffle me because what do you MEAN dean was smiling thinking about naked women surrounding gabriel while sam was hurt and uncomfortable??? what do you MEAN cas was reading about it and sam said "stop, please"??? what do you MEAN sam looked at gabe Ć rowena and looked betrayed?? what do you mean sam CRIED literal tears saying 'i need you'???
please jarpad bby show us the script and tell me how that wasn't intended as romantic because it was either them or you doing that PLEASE
once again thinking about anger in the context of supernatural⦠the way that it materialised in individual characters but especially in sam and deanās (i wrote this on an instagram post once but i think tumblr is a better place for it)
angry sam is so special because it shows just how much dean took the brunt of consequences. as an older sibling, i'm filled with rage because i don't want my younger brother to suffer the consequences of my parents' abuse.
but sam was raised by a kind boy who cared so deeply that it settled in samās soul like a weighted blanket - his big brother - and he's ALLOWED to be angry. not just by human impulse but allowed, in the presence of others, to feel emotions.
in the earlier seasons, as an adult, his anger is punished. he grows more and more numb. he grows tired. the anger in sam sparked and burst into flame but it fizzled out as the toll of holding it became heavier and the guilt of his own soul outweighed the anger at the world.
dean on the other hand started to take on more and more, and anger became his foremost emotion. dean has always been protective but that concern translated to anger because he had more and more to protect as time went on. they're both deeply angry individuals.
sam's fire burnt him to ashes. dean's consumed him whole until he could only taste grief.
best friends to lovers but one of them is head over heels in love with the other and the other just. cannot for the life of them figure out their feelings but in the meantime very much enjoys having a more-than-platonic relationship involving holding hands and kissing and getting incredibly flustered every time dating is suggested. everyone else knows itās not platonic those two idiots just havenāt figured it out yet
shakespeare level yearning but somehow although the feelings are mutually understood it takes them a solid six months to start dating. all their friends are in various stages of grief and disbelief. when they start dating it comes as a shock to absolutely nobody but thank fucking god because watching it was like getting queerbaited in real time
first tumbr post ph godā¦
so lately i have been a sucker for the specific swap au of human gabriel and castiel and then angel sam and dean after seeing some old fanart and fics with this concept
i did tons of scene redraws with this a couple years back, but never put any actual thought behind the concept until now, so !!
this may also be inspired by my deep deep desire to draw gabriel 20000000 times šš plus getting to play with gabriel and castiel brother dynamic⦠oh they are so dear to me
anyways i have parts of this au plotted out⦠idk how much of it ill wnd up actually drawing though š im using the actual show as a guideline ofc, but some major plot points definitely change since character dynamics, situations, and reactions are different so i am having a joyous time playing with themā¦
also may be just an excuse to draw sabriel and sastiel
and of course, sam and dean get to have their fair share of brotherly drama š
anyways!! thats all :) maybe ill expand on this one of these days and post more drawings!! but ill probably end up posting more spn drawings in general because i wnant to. make friends and get myself out there more in the spn fandomššš so ermm⦠spn fans interact!!! be my friend!!!
could not start this blog without reposting micahās au that iām absolutely IN LOVE WITH gabriel and cas brotherly relationship my belovedā¦
THE SAM AND CAS HUG!! sam knowing more abt human customs than cas is so funny. two sides of the autism coin!! sam did his research and cas just missed the social cue completely. god i love them
and the tiny ? over gabe and casā heads š gnawing on this artstyle <33
