– sam hasn’t tried his hand at witchcraft in a really long time, but when the strawberry moon rolls around, he takes the opportunity to do a very small ritual for healing and peace. when the ritual is finished, he sits outside for a long time, eyes closed, faced turned upward towards the moon
– cas finds him this way, but he doesn’t want to interrupt, so he goes back inside to wait
– when sam comes inside at last – long after midnight – cas is waiting with a hot cup of green tea
– sam takes the tea back to his room and sets it on his bedside table. cas tucks him in and says a gentle goodnight
– “do you think the moon actually cares?” asks sam as he begins to drop off, eyelids drifting closed
– “i don’t know,” says cas, looking at sam’s soft face. he tells himself that he could be kinder. he will be kinder.

Oooh can I send you a few ships for the ship game? How about: CainxDean , MegxRuby, SamxCastiel ? :D Please and thank you!
CainDean
who’s the cuddler: Dean’s cuddly but he was a little worried that Cain wouldn’t appreciate it at first. Cain does though.
who makes the bed: Cain. He’s a very tidy person.
who wakes up first: Also Cain. He has to. Gotta check on the apiaries early.
who has the weird taste in music: Cain is more into blues and early jazz, so Dean thinks his music is weird. Cain on the other hand things Dean’s music is weird.
who is more protective: Definitely Cain, but his main concern is protecting Dean from his own self-destructive thoughts.
who sings in the shower: Dean likes to listen to Cain singing in the show. His voice is so smooth and deep. Dean sings off key.
who cries during movies: They both do, but Dean’s more of a slobbery, sniffly crier. Cain is much more dignified and only cries during Titanic.
who spends the most while out shopping: Cain is more likely to buy organic produce. Dean buys fun stuff. They spend about the same.
who kisses more roughly: It’s actually Dean. Cain can be rough, but Dean is comfortable being rough with Cain when he wants to be.
who is more dominate: Cain.
gets jealous the most: They don’t get very jealous, actually. Cain is unconcerned when Dean flirts with other people (after all, it’s only natural he find other people attractive). Their relationship has a good basis of trust and honesty so they both know they don’t have to worry that someone else is going to snatch the other away.
one headcanon I have: Cain seems like a hardass, but he’s actually very gentle with Dean. He knows what Dean needs and wants and they have a pretty good relationship. It started out as a D/s relationship for both of them but eventually, they kind of decided they might as well date because they worked really well together.
nicknames: Do “Sir” and “Boy” count?
my rating of the ship from 1-10: 8
Meg/Ruby
Answered 🙂
Sam/Castiel
who’s the cuddler: They’re both big cuddlers. When they’re asleep together, it’s sometimes hard to tell where one ends and where the other begins.
who makes the bed: Cas. But it’s kind of half done at best. As long as the sheets are tucked where they’re supposed to be it’s good enough.
who wakes up first: Sam. Cas will not get out of bed save for an emergency or fresh coffee.
who has the weird taste in music: Sam. His music has banjos in it. Or, at least that’s what Cas thinks they are. He’s not really good at telling instruments apart.
who is more protective: Cas. He’s super protective over Sam.
who sings in the shower: Sam.
who cries during movies: Sam. Cas only cries at movies if he’s a little tipsy. (In that case, it’s always a bad idea to watch Babe, Homeward Bound, Bambi, basically anything that’s remotely sad.)
who spends the most while out shopping: Sam. Unless they both want to try some new cheese or something, then they’re both complicit in the expense.
who kisses more roughly: Sam. Cas is more of a nibbler. Sam bites.
who is more dominate: Personality wise, it’s Cas. In the bedroom, it’s Sam.
gets jealous the most: Cas is jealous of Sam’s compassion. Cas is a fairly kind person, but he once worked in customer service and had no patience for it. He’s pretty sure Sam has the patience of a saint.
one headcanon I have: Sam had a huge crush on Cas for forever, but he wasn’t sure Cas would or could reciprocate. Cas did, of course, but he didn’t want to impose.
nicknames: The obvious ones. “Angel” “Beloved”
my rating of the ship from 1-10: 9.5
I don’t know for certain but…. Sastiel?
I don’t know for certain, but I know
- Cas plays with Sam’s hair. A lot. But especially when Sam is sleeping.
- Cas tends to lead when they walk anywhere together. Cas tends to move much faster than Sam does, despite his height and stride length disadvantage.
- Cas has taught Sam all the dirty Enochian phrases he knows. They translate terribly into English (that whole “you breed with the mouth of a goat” thing is essentially calling someone a goat fucker in English) so Sam has given up on translating them because it totally kills the mood if he knows what the hell Cas is saying in bed.
- Sam is not above doing that obnoxious thing tall people do where they put their elbow on your head and use you as an armrest.
- Sometimes Cas forgets that he’s holding Sam’s hand so he’ll go to pick something up with both hands and Sam needs to jerk his hand away or get his fingers squashed.
- Sam’s got a priest kink. Cas notices. (He tends to volunteer to play the undercover priest role on cases.)
- They don’t actually have a lot of sex. Cas could take it or leave it but he enjoys the intimacy. Sam does not enjoy bottoming all that much. Frottage is their go-to.
- Cas likes to tell Sam about the things he’s seen in human history. Sam records it and is planning on transcribing it into a book.
- The actually spar quite a bit. Cas is quick on his feet and he keeps Sam on his toes. This has a lot to do with the fact that they want to exercise together (yeah, they’re that kind of couple) but Cas thinks running is a waste of time and he won’t get out of bed for morning yoga.
- Sam does not like it when Cas makes coffee. He’s all for strong coffee but the stuff Cas drinks is strong enough to wake the dead.
- They both have nightmares. They’ve both become each other’s rock in the middle of the night.
- Cas is a bit of a mother hen with Sam. That’s probably because Cas can actually talk Sam out of doing stupid and dangerous things, unlike some Winchesters they could both mention.
- Sam is actually more crafty than Cas, but that’s not saying a whole lot. Sam look a couple of knitting classes because he wanted to figure out how to do it. (Can’t be that different from sewing up a knife wound, right?) Cas tried and then gave up half-way through a lopsided scarf.
- Cas actually has a lot of hissy fits. He’s very particular about the way he wants and likes things and really dislikes modern inconveniences. (They got stuck in traffic once. Cas huffed and rolled his eyes and gripped the entire time.) Sometimes it’s cute, sometimes it’s annoying.
- Sam doesn’t like texting, but Cas does. Cas will send him texts written entirely in emoijs. Sometimes Sam knows what he means.
- They don’t talk about hell or Lucifer. You’d think they would be able to, considering they’ve both been vessels of the same arc angel, but that’s the big reason they don’t talk about it. But they know when the other is thinking about it or having nightmares about it.
*cough* welllll Sam said he doesn’t like taking a knot all the time. Maybe Cas is the kind of Alpha who would let Sam top him? Cas could dominate him from the bottom, maybe 😉 oh wait. You probably aren’t talking about sexy stuff, heh. I hear you though! If you didn’t want to go into big bang territory your hands were kinda tied. Also, yeah, it was a bit fluffy. Seems to happen pretty easily with sastiel, though.
It’s funny you mention that because that’s exactly the kind of thing I was thinking of for a time stamp sex scene. Great minds think alike, I suppose. 🙂
Sastiel is one of those ships that just lends itself to fluff tbh. Something about Sam who thinks he’s so flawed and impure and this pure being who loves him regardless and will let him vent but knows none of that is true just…. yeah it gets into sappy, feelsy, lovey stuff. Something about kindred spirits and all that.
Learning Curve is one of those fics that definitely made me want more. I wanted more of the “after” they were together, ya know? Not necessarily sex, but intimacy in general.
I can see that. I think I just didn’t know what to do with it because it was pretty fluffy and I was approaching the bb word minimum and I didn’t want to go over and into bb territory. But it’s part of the reason I want to revisit the verse. Give Sam and Cas more couple time and see what happens when you put five alphas in the same room for too long.
I have finally finished Burn! The final chapter is up on AO3 Here
I want to thank @samanddeaninpanties Without her I would have never finished this story. She was my personal cheer leader and my biggest fan.
“Cas.” Cas rasped.
“Hmm?” Sam’s brows were furrowed. His patient was shivering harder now.
“You can call me Cas… my friends call me that.”
Sam’s warm smile could be heard in his voice. It made Cas smile too. “I would like that Cas.”
When
the Vaseline was gone, Sam poured a little more saline over Cas’ chest
arm and back then reached onto the cart for more Vaseline. “This should
feel good.”Cas sniffled and wiped his face with his hand. “Okay… Why are you nursing here instead of working as a medic?”
Sam
chuckled. He got a generous dollop of Vaseline on his fingers and
started spreading it along Cas’ skin. The action got him another
delicious moan. “I was a medic.” He replied. “I broke my
leg in the field. They sent me here and when I was healed enough to walk
i started working here instead of going home.”“Don’t take this the wrong way Sam… but I am immensely happy that you broke your leg.”
Sam barked a laugh. It made his eyes light up. Seeing him laugh
like that made Cas warm up from the inside out. Even though the person
next to him was yelling at Sam to shut up. He looked
down
into Cas’ eyes. “So am I.”
