Liveblogging The Tentacle Who Knew Too Much by @thayerkerbasy
Summary:
Supernatural, but angels and demons are tentacle creatures like from Day of the Tentacle. Very canon divergent s06e22 but the meat of the thing is the same.
Rating: Teen
Pairing: Crowley/Dean
Okay, first off, you all need to click the link and look at the art because it’s to die for and I adore it. Liveblogging below the cut.
The events of the past several months flashed through Crowley’s mind like a television programme’s season finale recap — fighting off the heavenly blue tentacles who were determined to take over the world, struggling to keep the hellish red tentacles in line so none could steal Crowley Tentacle’s crown, keeping the Winchester brothers from discovering the plan.
Just…everything about this sentence. Omfg
Painting the last of the sigil on the wall, Crowley Tentacle wiped the blood off of himself with a handy cloth.
I’m so curious about how he does this considering he doesn’t have hands. Does he… like… roll around on it? Does the tip of the tentacle kinda wiggle around in a circle? I suppose tentacles can probably do that, given that they don’t have bones.
Cas Tentacle fixed him with a look that would have been a glare if tentacles had eyes. All the same, it still managed to convey the same thing as human glares, only more eloquently with fewer facial features. It was magnificent.
I’m picturing like, pulsing or squinty suckers here. IDK. I have no idea how the hell a tentacle is able to squint but… I can see it.
It took only a moment for his wonderful tentacle pup to slither around the corner and tackle Sam […]
I’m picturing a tentacle with dog ears here and I so badly want that.
Crowley Tentacle found the page easily, given that it was the one with a folded-down corner. Seriously, Cas Tentacle had no respect for books.
Boooo. Bad Cas Tentacle for dog-earing pages! Use a bookmark!
Sam was happily petting Juliet and scratching behind her ears, and one of the Cas Tentacles held a knife to the other one, not that it mattered which one was which.
D’awww.
I think I should probably be concerned about which of the Cas Tentacles is the victor, though.
“If we can get your hands on enough of those sticky suckers, we can turn the tide of this war. It wouldn’t take long to trap and bind the higher ups, and it wouldn’t need to hold them long either. So long as we were to nab those in charge, we could toss them in a cell and end all this.”
This is an unconventional use of condoms but I approve nonetheless. Just one more reason to love them, I suppose.
Sam stopped original Cas Tentacle with a hand to his pseudopod shoulder. “You need to go and get now-me and make sure all this happens, or you’ll go through with the ritual and be evil forever.”
Time-travel makes my brain hurt. But it makes sense…I think? Does this mean Cas and Sam are going to be in an infinite loop of stopping the purgatory plan forever? I think maybe? But still beats the purgatory plan.
Stop what you’re doing and read this fic. It was really freaking funny and fun and I enjoyed the hell out of it. (Pun possibly intended.)
