Did Cas and Rufus ever meet......I feel like Cas would like him immediately (Rufus is quite straightforward, easy to understand) and impronts on him like a baby duckling. He would spend any spare moment at Rufus's on standby mode staring into space like a statue until someone spoke to him. Rufus would be confused and irritated by this to start with but when he eventually believes that this is genuinely how Cas spends time with people he gets extremely smug about it and he and Cas have a lot of chats late into the night about eternity and legacy and what it means to be human.

I think Rufus teaches Cas how to play cards, and then how to cheat at cards, then they have a tag team scam game night where they scheme Bobby and Dean out of all their cash (Sam is there but he figures it out and takes no part).

[kerryweaverlesbian]

After their first introduction Rufus comes downstairs in the middle of the night and jumps out of his skin to see Cas just standing 🧍‍♂️ with his eyes glowing blue (he's recorganising the atoms in the dust motes. This is fun for him.)

And at first he's majorly suspicious but he can read Cas as sincere when he just straight out says 'I enjoy your company' and whatever it's 3am, so he gets them each an orange juice and gets Cas to sit with him at the table to talk, both because 'I won't sleep with a stranger in the house. So let's make you less strange' and because he is a curious about him.

Rufus asks Cas all the questions about angel society that team free will don't bother with, and Cas doesn't ask him any back because he doesn't know he should (this changes by the end of the morning because Rufus's observations make him curious back). This chat and many subsequent ones makes Rufus a foremost expert on angels and he's extremely smug about it, and he's trustworthy so he doesn't reveal anything that would betray Cas’s trust. He even keeps his source a secret until Cas holds his hand out for the phone to Bobby to correct something Bobby says on the other end one time. (Bobby is very frustrated that Cas never told HIM these important details and Cas is like '🤨 how am I supposed to know what you deem important. You think cars are important.' and Rufus falls out of his chair laughing at Cas’s audacity. It's the first time he touches Cas with camaraderie.)

[kerryweaverlesbian]

Oh I didn't finish the thought on that last one. They end up basically holding hands whenever they're sat next to each other bc they're friends and it's nbd between them and they're both so casual about it that nobody who knows them both reads it as unusual.

This bonding is all behind the scenes of team free will stuff btw nobody knows they're besties until Cas is like listing off the reasons he has to fight for humanity, 'my friends...no, my family. Bobby, the Winchesters, Ellen, Jo, Ash. Rufus.' and afterwards Dean is like 'why the hell did Rufus make the list. You met him once 6 months ago.' (Dean remembers bc Cas said in the car afterwards, unprompted and easy, 'I liked him.' and Dean, half joking half jealous, had said 'not as much as you like me.' and Cas had said nothing (not seeing it as a question) and Sam cracked up, 'ice cold' and Dean, embarrassed, had turned up the radio the rest of the way.)

Anyway Cas says they're close friends and salmon dean are convinced he's got the wrong end of the stick bc Rufus doesn't like many people (or, he doesn't like rudeness, which is the Winchester default) until they all go over to Rufus's for an artifact and Rufus greets Cas with a hug and sends him to the kitchen to make the coffees, and greets them with 'what do you want.'

[kerryweaverlesbian]

Sometimes Rufus will be having a drink with someone at his table and then Cas just appears behind them to 🧍and Rufus is so used to him by now he doesn't acknowledge him so when the person catches him from the corner of their eye they also jump out of their skin and Rufus thinks this is funny so he never tells people when Cas is there.

Rufus comes to know about the nature of destiel because one time Dean is the one sat at the table with Cas appearing silently and Dean brings up their (Dean and Rufus's) night of passion (it happened, you're on board) and Cas, for the first time, knocks over a stack of books by accident bc he's so surprised and disappears when Dean spins around and sees him. Dean looks back at Rufus, freaked, and Rufus, quickly understanding and a bit of a bastard (affectionate) says 'ah I knew it. Cas has a little crush. On me.' and Dean is like. Losing it. 'I have to leave immediately.'

Rufus talks to Cas about it when he flies back in later that night, 'So. You and the Winchester boy.' and after a moment Cas just nods, and asks 'Do you think he suspects anything?' 'No, don't worry. I covered for you.'

Also when Rufus is out on hunts Cas will appear behind him and take down a demon that was about to get him and Rufus says 'thanks Cas' without needing to turn around. When he does, Cas is gone again.

[kerryweaverlesbian]

One time Rufus gets a really bad head cold and refuses to let Cas heal him because he's extremely stubborn, but Cas looks so anxious about it, hovering close (he usually sticks to being across the room unless they're sat down) and wringing his hands, that Rufus sighs and says 'you can make me some tea. If you really want to help.' And it does help, and heck, it does feel kind of nice to be looked after, so Rufus adds 'and you can get me a hot towel. And another blanket from the airing cupboard. Make me some soup.'

To anyone else it would read as orders, but between them it's understood as it's really meant, permission to care. Cas likes the clear instructions and Rufus likes that Cas doesn't try to tell him to feel better.

[kerryweaverlesbian]

S7 honey!cas comes over with Meg a few times (rufus doesn't die shut up) and they're like new cats meeting each other for the first time (Rufus keeps spraying Meg with a holy water spray bottle) until Cas looks at them and goes '🥺 don't fight 🥺' and they're both disarmed for a moment and then look at each other like. Fuck I just showed you a weakness of mine. Uneasy truce. Rufus makes Meg sit in a devils trap whenever they're over and she's annoyed but Cas is happy to be there so she puts up with it.

Cas, who has become extremely good at reading both of them because they will explain how they're feeling if he's ever doubtful, translates out loud what they mean when they're snarky or flippant (like, ahem, this meg and cas fic of mine) and they both get fondly exasperated with this but the evidence that they do both care about and respect Cas a lot, and Rufus seeing that Meg is stuck in an impossible situation with trying to work against hell while Meg is coming to see Rufus as a figure of admiration as someone who did successfully almost entirely retire from hunting on his own terms because of his self respect all lead towards a weird little friendship of their own.

They have a major breakthrough after over a month of hanging out when Cas brings Rufus a bottle of aged scotch (he was so excited to see it while out with Meg that he immediately picked it up and zapped them both to Rufus's house. He does not recognise that this is 'stealing' as 'why should they claim to own it if they haven't even tasted it.') and Rufus stretches across the border of the devils trap to hand Meg a glass of it too.

They end up with a private joke that Cas HATES where Meg makes a come on to Rufus and Rufus replies with 'sorry, I don't do dead girls' and it's mostly funny to them because Cas gets so huffy about it.

[kerryweaverlesbian]

Cas joins in with Rufus's old man hobby of whittling for a while after Rufus shows him how to do it and he keeps on whittling the sticks down into nothing (he's fascinated by how to whole can become nothing, but then he becomes melancholy when it's done) until Rufus says he could do something useful instead and shows him how to finger-knit like Rufus's mom used to do. Next time Rufus sees Dean he has 3 new knitted loops around his wrist and a 5 hanging around the mirror in the Impala. When Cas clocks Rufus looking at them he blushes and avoids eyecontact.

Next time he sees Bobby he spots several used as bookmarks too, and Bobby says 'shut up. You try saying not saying yes to him when he brings one. It's like kicking a puppy.' 'I don't say yes to shit. You're just soft.' Just so happens Cas pops up with one for Rufus a second later and, without asking, hangs it around Rufus's neck as a necklace and vanishes again. Rufus tucks it under the neck of his shirt to join 4 others from the past week and scowls at Bobby laughing at him. 'Gone a little soft there yourself, old man.' 'Hey, did you hear me say yes? No word of a lie from me.' (but he's smiling too).

#sometimes I think about hunter Cas aus altho they are not my bag and I think it is mandatory for

#Rufus to be his mentor

#People call him to complain about Cas when they can't figure out how to work with him and Rufus is always like

#Yeah I never had any issues you must be some kinda idiot I guess

#Cas is real good with things if you can explain why you're doing them but if he doesn't like your logic he'll just ignore you

#Rufus is generally better at arguing with him but also knows when he's beat

(from @an-android-in-a-tutu​)

[bananonbinary]

i just saw the tag “canon complicit” instead of “canon compliant” and im laughing its like “canon is a criminal act that i unfortunately support with this fic”

[quillingmesoftly]

The Three Grades:

Canon Compliant: “This fic goes along with canon.” (Because I like it? Because I’m too tired to disagree by writing my own fic? Who knows? The author may or may not tell us.)

Canon Compatible: “Listen, I know it ISN’T canon, but think of it as Microsoft Office for Mac, it’s COMPATIBLE with canon, and that counts.”

Canon Complicit: “I have not died a hero, so I have become an accessory to the Villainy of Canon.”

[faustandfurious]

Canon Compatible is a great term for when your fic is Probably Not What Tolkien Would Have Wanted but it doesn’t really contradict anything in canon either

[quillingmesoftly]

#you can install this fic without canon crashing and that’s what matters

[milfcodeddean]

in hindsight 2021 spnblr drama is unbeatable. there was a full on war between sam girls and everyone else. people destroyed in the gay dean

[aturnoftheearth]

and the funniest part? i’m blocked by op

[pinknatural]

just realized dean has a cowboy kink not a cowgirl kink and in fact dean is NEVER faced with a cowgirl in all 15 years of the show but he is faced with cowboys many many times

[gremlin-pattie]

god i love this show

[bug-mp3]

Hello in 11x03 when Sam calls Cas’ car ‘crappy’ and Cas goes ‘you think it’s crappy?’ (In the most poor lil meow meow voice ever. He’s wrapped in a goddamn blanket during the whole conversation, goddamn) and then Cas looks at Dean and DEAN looks so conflicted and finally says ‘eye of the beholder’. DEAN! Dean WINCHESTER! Car snob of the century, tells Cas that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder and he is allowed to love his crappy little car! What! Are you saying to me! Cas is sickly and sad ONCE and dean throws his entire repertoire of snappy responses out the window. He wraps a goddamn blanket around his shoulders in that same scene. This is the SAME episode where Cas is on the ground in that weird storage hall and Dean GRABS HIS FACE to see if he is okay. Not just grabs it, holds onto it, then hauls him to sit upright and GRABS HIS FACE AGAIN now with BOTH HANDS. Dean is NOT immune to Cas being a poor little meow meow. If Cas had been human at that point in the show, we would have had a scene of Cas sitting in Dean’s lap while Dean spoon feeds him soup in a matter of 2 episodes max you cannot convince me otherwise
