Nym, the destiel omega verse story Maybe Sprout Wings would tickle your boat and float your alley for whumptober. Also a Broken World. 🫶🏽

Thank you for the recs!

I've already read the first couple of chapters of A Broken World, and you're absolutely right - it looks like my kind of thing and I'm looking forward to getting stuck in. I'll hunt down the other title right away. :)

What else is October for if not redemptive character whumping?

UPDATE: Now with links to said fanfics so I don't lose track of 'em.

Maybe Sprout Wings by @casuallyneurotic (WIP)

A Broken World by mishaminion69 (aka @deanmon69 ) and sydkn3e

Both pieces/'verses rated Explicit on AO3.

positively one of my favorite scenes of castiel

writing dean winchester is like. he’s hideously selfish. he’s the most selfless person in the world. he’s pathetic. he’s strong. he’s completely clueless about his feelings. he feels everything too much. he hates himself. he’s the cockiest son of a bitch you’ll ever meet. he ignores his fear. his fear consumes him. he’s protective. he wants someone to protect him. he’s controlling and possessive. he’s soft-hearted and kind. he wants to bear the weight of the world because it’s the only thing that makes him feel useful. he doesn’t want to feel responsible for everyone and everything. he loves the hunting life. he just wants to be normal. he loves his brother. he hates his brother. he loves his father. he hates his father. he loves his mother. he hates his mother.

and writing sam winchester is like. he’s never fit in anywhere. he just wants to belong. he wants to get away from his family. he doesn’t want to let his family down. he’s full of anger. he’s the gentlest man in the world. he’s never had the ability to choose. he’ll do anything to preserve other people’s ability to choose. he’s a good hunter. he wants to be anything else but a hunter. he’s defiant. he’s complacent. he’s ashamed of the things he’s done. he’s proud of himself for who he is. he doesn’t ever want to kill. he’ll kill anything that threatens someone he loves. he feels suffocated by his brother’s love. his brother’s love is the only true thing he’s ever known. he hates his father. he loves his father.

everything about these characters is a contradiction. how can you not want to eat them alive, absorb them into your blood, and then spend the rest of your life trying to write them into a world where every single one of these things is true at the same time??? i’m absolutely. insane
