everyone knows, everyone can see there’s something wrong with sam and dean. something dirty, something that could only be made in trailers down south and motel rooms out west. it goes unsaid, because there’s no saving them. it’s too late.
This is me trying to bypass Tumblr censorship, attempt 1
Just in case, the full fanart is on ao3
Details under the cut! (It's a bit long, I'm warning you)
Here's the frankly too long explaination.
I basically crammed in this drawing all my favourite motifs and all of my studies.
The tattoo on Sam's back is something I designed myself and represents Mater Dolorosa (Our Lady of Sorrows or Madonna Addolorata) with a stanza from the prayer "Stabat Mater" that goes as folows - "Through her soul, of joy bereaved, bowed with anguish, deeply grieved, now at length the sword hath passed."
Then we have Saint Michael slaughtering the Devil on Dean's arm. This is a mesh up of different stock images; usually Saint Michael stands over a serpent not a dragon and has a sword, not a halberd, those come from Saint George (Patron Saint of soldiers, so not a random choice)
Then there's the scripts. (Open the first pic)
The roman numbers on Dean's collarbone: II.V.XCIII = 2.5.83, Sam's date of birth.
The matching latin tattoos on their bicepts: The whole quote actually is "Nec tecum, nec sine te vivere possum" by Ovidius, which means "I can't live with you nor without you" and I thought of splitting it like that because I think it sums up their relationship pretty well. They can't be together, especially Sam imo (forever the runaway), because it's basically self-destructive, but being apart maybe is even worse (suicidal Dean anyone?).
A mandala with a mantra on Sam's tigh: गते गते पारगते पारसंगते बोधि स्वाहा . The Devanāgarī, for those unfamiliar, is a South Asian writing system. Here we have the mantra that closes the Heart Sutra "Gone, gone, gone to the other shore, Awakening, Svaha." (Svaha is the Hindu goddess of sacrifices; in a Buddhist context the term is used as denoument for mantras, espicially duing rites and offerings).
The characters on Dean's bicept, next to Saint Michael: 天罰. Those are technically Hanja aka Traditional Chinese characters used to write Korean (mostly because I first encountered this word in my korean phylology studies and that's how I know it), but they mean the same thing in Korean, Chinese and Japanese, "Divine Punishment", sooo - the only difference is the ponunciation. Korean: 천벌 (cheonbeol) Japanese: てんばつ (tenbatsu) Chinese: 天罚 (tiān fá).
Lastly, on Dean ribs, say hi to my bestie Hammurabi and his famous Code: here we have the Law 196 which actually even rocks know about; An eye for an eye. The full text says: "If a man has blinded the eye of another man, his eye will be blinded." Can't really offer you a transcript but if you're curious here's the transliteration:
" šum-ma a-wi-lum i-in DUMU a-wi-lim úḫ-tap-pí-id i-in-šu ú-ḫa-ap-pa-du " There's this really neat website here that is a digital version of the whole code and it's also my source.
Unlike his always nice big brother Dean, Sam has been a very naughty boy again this year... And Santa makes sure that he feels it! Only question is if a fiery red backside is a punishment or a gift...? 🤔
Uncensored version on X
Merry Christmas to everyone out there who celebrate! 🎄🥂🎉
May your holidays be full of joy, unresponsible amounts of eggnog and lots of kinky fun!
Currently thinking of Crowley, throwing his headphones across the room in disgust.
Not because the Winchesters are fucking. Again. He rather likes listening to them, hearing barely-controlled anger in Dean and the mixed pleasure and pain in Sam as they tear each other apart in the confines of that car. It’s lust and incest and wrath and violence all rolled into one, and that’s what a demon like him likes to hear.
Because the Winchesters are fucking, and this time it’s missing that delicious tang of sin.
This time it’s Dean: “I gotcha, baby brother. Lemme take care of you.”
This time it’s Sam: “Dean, please, need you…”
This time it’s love and tenderness and a need to mold themselves into one flesh. This time it’s care and forgiveness and the grunting and panting and thumping is the same but entirely different and it makes Crowley’s stolen guts churn with nausea.
