I think they said it would burn him out. And it's not self-sustaining, like everyone else's natural grace is.

And if they were suddenly gone, I think he would miss them, or at least having them to torment.

This I can see. I miss the Crowley that thought they were a threat, but making Dean his pet is something Alistair failed at, so go him.

orange-crushed is a thoughtful (D/C, rarely explicit) writer, and Fata Morgana has a Dean as King of Hell and Castiel with an unexpected travelling partner to try and rescue him. I'd recommend it based on the imagery alone.

Can someone write me a story? It's not exactly MPREG, but make the assumption that angels are beings made of love and devotion, and Castiel's extra love and devotion--maybe it's like a grain of sand that makes a pearl, except the pearl is a new angel.

Except he keeps loving and being devoted to Dean, so he keeps popping new angels like peas squeezing out of a pod, and it takes Dean working it out to stabilise the situation, many angels later.

Yes, that is crack I'd laugh at.

Also, I'm bored.

That is certainly cracktastic.

See, they've all stabilised their love for God, so they're not fledgling cannons in his name.

But love of Dean--what angels would those make?

THE MOST BADASS CRACKIEST BOOZIEST SLUTTIEST PRANKIEST LOUDEST GOURMANDIEST angels that would put Balthazar and Gabriel and even Metatron to shame, controllable only by Cas and Sam since Dean doesn't think they've done anything wrong.

Ah, vessel time would be fun, huh? Seeking out rebellious preacher's children who still believe, but want to flip their father the bird.

At which point Lucifer loses track of what his plan was, and God pays Death a visit.

I would subscribe to that channel, yes. In a hurry.

Cafe De Labeill (or do we call her La La Lettie now? Or Lettie Bo Bettie--she active at that tumblr now?) already did the fanonical child of Cas and Dean--a very cute kid called Zeppelin. I think people have written stories from the pictures, some she's their adopted kid (rescued on a hunt--no one seems to do that so much anymore, what with a/b/o and MPREG on the rise), some she's their biological kid so she can do angel stuff. Lettie said she was hatched.

You ever really love an artist but wish they would stretch, both in content and in style? That's me and her art. She's so amazingly talented, but if you all the way through her work, it can be repetitive if that's not your bag.

I've bought two non-textile fanart products (I wouldn't count (like literally 1-2-3 count, they Count count as fanart for sure) my t-shirts at this point, and I now have one hung print) and one was one of her advent booklets. I think it's the only advent booklet I've ever bought, and it's chock full of sweet.

But even her scary is sweet, and her sexy is sweet. Maybe she's that sweet. Maybe that's what she needs to do. Even her self-portrait is sweet.

But, no, looking more--her commissions seem to be pulling her in different directions. That's great. She could charge good coin for those and be eternally besieged.

And her talent looks consistent from the days when she was in Batfandom (I don't know if she's in any fandom now, not as much as either of those). I wish I could find some of that. it was so good, and she must have been so young. Still is pretty young. I'm so impressed by her.

Oh, hey--her ClinTasha looks wholeheartedly grown up. I didn't follow her much then, because the ship does nothing for me.

Hmm. I think I have a larger fandom question for the mainpage thread.

What I was meaning to say and completely got distracted from, was...I wonder if drawing them would be fun. I'm not so good at my own character design because I don't have extensive references...

Wow, I love the ClinTasha.

I love her stuff, but it's very stylized, and a lot of it does have a cuteness to it.

Yeah, when I imagine them as not the two most boring people in the Avengers, I kinda love that picture. So well framed, and perfect choice of colour.

You know, I think when I whine that I don't know if I have a style, most of it is not being stylised, even when I try. Not exactly the point, huh?

There's a difference between style and stylized, though. Anything more realistic can have a particular style (use of color, hard or light lines, etc.), but when your art is stylized, it has more uniformity, and it's usually slightly exaggerated in the same ways consistently.

I think the last art class I took was in tenth grade, though, so take that with a grain of salt.
