What’s an important lesson your muse has learned over the past few years and how has that changed the way they live?
An important lesson that Sam has learned over the past few years is that his fate is inescapable. He still tries to fight it but it is becoming more and more clear that he cannot leave the life he is living. Dean needs him too much and, in ways, Sam needs him right back. This mindset had caused him to become slightly more aggressive and more willing to do terrible things to get his way. It tears him up inside but there is no way out of this.
3.Does your muse focus mainly on one long term goal or multiple short term ones? What do they think about the reach-ability of their goals and what are they?
Sam use to think about the long term goals. Get this shit done with Dean, get back to college and live your life. But the idea of going back to college is now null and void and no longer a dream. Now Sam focuses on short term ideas, like staying alive to the next day because that seems a lot more reachable than anything else he has.
7.What does your muse get out of relationships (be it friends, family or a significant other)? Do they find it energizing or exhausting to keep up with?
It depends on who you’re talking about. Sam finds Dean to be exhausting to keep up with because his brother reminds him that there is no way out of what they’re doing and how they live. While he loves his brother to the ends of the earth, he is the thing that brought him back into the darkness when Sam was very nearly free. Most anyone Sam finds to be slightly exhausting on some sort of level because he worries dearly about their safety.
9.What does your muse think of time/aging? Does getting older scare them? (Alternatively, for immortal muses: How does their immortality effect their relationships with mortals?)
Sam doesn’t think about aging. He feels lucky to make it to the next day. He holds no hope he’ll make it to old age. He barely feels like he’ll make it to forty.
