"The phone has an incredible camera function on it as well as a very powerful flashlight. It also has a night vision setting, though the night vision setting drains the battery very fast. The regular battery life of these phones is 24 hours, but using the night vision will shorten the life span to only 8 hours."

[ He's, you know. Casually aware of the fact that he looks pretty good covered in sweat and grease. Good thing Cas doesn't mind his grime, or if he does, he's never said anything about it and doesn't now.

Dean glances up, flashes Cas a little wink as he stands upright, tossing the towel aside. ]


I'm probably done for the day. Need to hit the scrapyard soon, see about finding some more parts. [ He'll brave the mists for his baby. ]

[ There are very few people he'd let sit on Baby's hood, Cas is one of them. Dean watches Cas hop up, meandering closer, ready to lean into his space. ]

I will.

[ Between Cas and Sam, Dean finally, finally feels complete, like his family really is knitting itself back together again. His brothers are here, and while one is a spritely fourteen and the other a broody motherfucker, they're here and they're okay and they're alive. Healthy, even.

With Cas here, it feels like his little circle is complete.

It's a good feeling. ]


You don't have to worry about it. It's fine. [ Probably nearly healed, maybe.

He's rolling the sleeve up to his shoulder on his left arm anyway, because it's Cas, and the argument isn't worth it, and he likes the attention he's getting. ]

[ Sam was always better with needlework than Dean. Dean's efficient, he can get it done, but Sam's were always nicer and far less likely to scar. It's certainly healing well. ]

At first, it was a nightmare. [ For Dean, anyway. Cas is lucky (sort of) in that he missed most of the trauma Dean was exposed to almost immediately upon arriving, and Dean truly does have to count his lucky stars that his angel wasn't privy to any of that shit - the actual events, and the consequences.

Dean was not well for a while. His coping mechanisms are already unhealthy, and the risks he took while Sam was dead were considerable. There are a lot of new scars dotting his body now, some still pink and blistery. Healed, but new. ]


It's better now. [ Ariadne had been right, again (he'll never confess) - as awful as the city could be, it was better than home. ]

[ Dean won't elaborate, not unless Cas pries it out of him. Even then, at most, Cas would get a watered down version to spare the trauma Dean had experienced. Dean isn't great at 'sharing' and emoting, especially not anymore.

He tips his head, watching Cas, letting him press on the scar. It aches a tad, in the way newly healed wounds do, but it isn't vicious or sharp like the raw wounds in his heart that will not mend. ]


So are you.

[ They're both alive, and there's something to be said for that, and it's all he can think about as he curls his fingers over Cas', covering them with his free hand. ]

[ He makes a noise in the back of his throat in agreement; living and existing are sometimes two very, very different things. Still, Cas is real, tangible - warm as he pulls Dean in, lips brushing so softly, a ghost of a kiss. ]

I'd be happy to.

[ His voice is low, warm - a rumble in his chest, need bubbling back up to the surface, fingers tightening on Cas' hand as he reaches with his other to cup the back of his head, slide his fingers into soft dark hair, guide Cas in the rest of the way.

A proper kiss - they're exposed, but it can't be helped, Dean can't stop himself, denying any of this is stupid when they were granted this almost hallucinatory second chance.

They're real. This is real. It is and isn't a dream, but Dean feels in the pit of his belly that regardless the terminology used, this is real. Cas is real, he's warm, he's here - Dean can still hardly believe it.

He kisses him like it's their last, tasting his lips, hand sliding free of Cas; hair in favor of cupping his jaw, thumb brushing his cheek. He kisses him again and again, devouring him, stealing Cas' breath, barely allowing either of them to breathe before he's diving back in, tracing his tongue over soft lips, hungry, ravenous, desperate. ]

just be like cw: dean and cas, that's it, that's the warning

[personal profile] venatoris 2021-06-03 01:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Dean follows after Cas when he leans back, his hands sliding free of hair and hands. He aches for more, lips cool and damp from where he'd tasted paradise. Cas is speaking, but it's muffled under the roar of need in Dean's veins, skin pricked with gooseflesh from where Cas' fingers slid over his body. ]

What? [ Dean's already reaching for Cas again, uncomprehending at first, mirroring the desire for touch. He slips his hand under Cas' shirt to pass over his belly to his lower back, eager to bring him in ever closer, because Dean cannot get enough and even the press of flesh on flesh is not good enough. He wants to crawl into Cas and stay there, so deeply ingrained, sand under skin.

Some of the fog clears, though, and it registers what is actually being said and Dean remembers himself, eases back with great reluctance and lets his fingers trail over Cas' skin, lingering at his hip. Cas is a bright star in Dean's dimly lit universe, a beacon of light glimmering in the twilight. He can't look away, can't pull away from his gravity now that he's allowed himself to be caught.

A deep breath, one, two. ]


Right now.

[ Cas backs up, teasing Dean, and Dean easily, eagerly gives chase. He reaches for Cas, fingers light on his hips as he goes after him, seeking kisses only to be denied. The angel keeps just out of reach; Dean moves to close in and Cas slips away, until he managed to pin him up against the car, hips pressed flush, noses brushing. He doesn't kiss him again, though - not yet.

Instead, he reaches around, fumbles with the door handle to open it, pulling Cas with him as it swings outward. The backseat of the Impala is startlingly roomy, and the leather has been lovingly, carefully restored, parts salvaged from a strikingly similar Impala he'd found in the scrapyard.

A remnant from a previous stay, maybe. There's certainly been a revolving door of Winchesters in Deerington. He won't complain though, because the parts were needed and the leather was still intact. It'll hold up to the weight of two men, because Dean is easing Cas into the vehicle, pinning him down, and closing the door behind them.

Now he will kiss Cas again, teases at that pretty mouth, tongue tracing over lips. Dean is a selfish, greedy thing, and now that they've started whatever this is, he doesn't want to stop. ]

[ Either Dean didn't realize the Impala he found in the scrapyard here belonged to a previous version of himself, or he didn't care - though of the two, the latter is far more likely. As the years wore on on Baby, so they also did on Dean's soul. The passage of time and utter deterioration manifested physically in the form of Baby's demise, the warmth of his soul fading to icy blackness as the Impala rotted a few feet away.

Dean let Baby die, as Sam so accurately stated, but it wasn't because he wanted to, it wasn't because he enjoyed the decline. With every part stripped away from his precious vehicle, the one thing in life he loved as desperately as Sam or Cas, a piece of himself was stripped away, too. The battery was needed, the glass in the back windshield, the tires. She became a husk, a shell of what she used to be, a dying star - much like her driver.

If she could speak, she would say that it was alright, that she understood, that there were more important things that her parts were needed for. Dean cried when he pulled the battery out, when he took the doors off, but after that he hardened, and it became routine to strip her down when something was needed. She'd forgive him anyway, if asked, but then again - nobody ever did.

He grew colder and crueler, more and more selfish with every passing day; it's little wonder that he didn't bother to mention the Impala's existence when he found it to his other self - much like he never bothered to outwardly tell Sam or the other Dean that they existed. If he could keep these things as close to his chest for as long as possible, he would. He was irritated enough when Cas slithered over there, and while Dean recognizes that he cannot control anyone, his anger doesn't abate. It's stowed instead, carefully plugged in a bottle, combustible and fragile, and locked away. It's not a new coping mechanism, not really, but the volatility of his anger has tempered somewhat. There are new chances here, he thinks, and people that show him there is more than the life he left behind.

He's changing, slowly but surely. And the new seats in Baby's backseat mirror another sealed up fracture in his heart, molten gold shining in the multitude of cracks. Dean eases Cas back against them, the seats smooth and supple like new, smelling of leather. Hands smeared in grease slip up under Cas' shirt, skirt over his skin, trace and count his ribs as Dean meets his kisses. He breathes Cas' name against his lips; already this time is different, less urgent, less drunken fumbling, less frantic. Dean takes his time, palming Cas' ribcage, dragging his fingers up, taking his time as he savors the feel of warm skin under his fingers. ]

[ For all of his bravado and bluster, the simmering rage under the surface and the ease in which he can plug someone infected with Croatoan without hesitation, Dean is soft, fragile - delicate in a way that's hidden under a carefully constructed macho persona, unwilling to let the gentleness in his heart free for fear of being hurt.

No one likes being hurt, and yet he and Cas have destroyed each other more times than they can count. Words like sharp steel, sex as a weapon. It's been an unhealthy tango for ages, a battle that couldn't be won, not when each party was foolishly reacting to the others bad decisions. He tugs at the hem of the angels shirt in kind, shoving it up his sides, encouraging him to lift his arms, get it off, because Dean wants to see and touch and scrape his teeth over the planes and valleys of Cas' body. ]

Here, though, in the backseat of the Impala, fresh and smelling of oiled leather and the whiskey on his lips, it feels like a new start. Dean's shirt is easily removed, shoved down on the floorboards of the car and immediately forgotten. All that there is to worry about now are Cas' plush lips, the fingers tracing over Dean's jaw and cheeks.

As long as you want.

[ There are no duties tonight, no perimeter patrol, no responsibilities that will take him away from this.

There are probably things he can think of that he needs to do; there are guns to clean, repairs to be made to the house and finishing touches to be lovingly bestowed upon the car they are currently christening. There's dinner to be made, preparations to be thought out and put into place, safeguards, the salt lines checked, the wards repainted, the demon trap under the front mat checked. But you know what--

Someone else can worry about it, tonight. Dean is done, today. His priority is right here, underneath him, tracing sacred lines over Dean's skin. ]


I want to take my time with you.

[ He tips his hips against Cas' thigh with a little groan, breathy against the angel's lips, savoring the taste of him, the heat of hands on his hips. Cas is like a drug in his veins, pulling him in, twisting him up in a new addiction.

Dean finds that he's just fine with being swept into Cas' chaos, reveling in it, finding purpose in the loss of sanity. ]


You'll be singing hymns by the time I'm done with you.

[ He shifts his weight to brae against the backseat, sliding a hand down between them, roughly tugging at Cas' pants, pulling at the waistband. ]

Take these off.

[ The Impala's backseat is only so big, so they're treated to a lot of grinding against one another in the shuffle to remove clothing. There's no complaints from Dean - he has to admire the view, watching intently as Cas wriggles out of his pants, lifts his hips and presses right against Dean as he drinks in the sight below him.

His own jeans are annoyingly snug around his cock, so he does some moving around himself, yanking at the zipper and shoving at them even as Cas drags him back in for slow, lapping kisses that leave Dean's head spinning, heart pounding sharp and heavy in his chest. He doesn't want to break from the kiss, too hungry for soft lips he's just now getting a taste of in Deerington.

His own stubbornness over the years is infuriating, because Cas hasn't made his interest any secret, not really. Dean was just too blind and stupid to see it.

Once he gets his jeans shoved down, he's pulling back just to take a moment to look down at Cas and marvel, run his hands down over his chest and belly, touch light, almost reverent. ]


You...are incredible. [ It slips out before Dean can stop himself and he looks embarrassed, because talk about being soft and lame as hell. ]

[ Humans are masters at nuance, at saying one thing and meaning another, at half truths and hidden meanings. An entire conversation can be held with just body language and eye contact, the brush of fingers over skin, a shy smile. You know why, Cas. You do. Maybe you're not admitting it to yourself, maybe Dean needs to grow a set and make the words happen, but deep down, you know.

Dean looks down at Cas and he sees him in new ways every time; his head in Dean's lap, the brush of his fingers over Dean's lips, how Cas pulled him down for a kiss, and Dean didn't resist.

He resists now, though, shivering at those warm fingers wrapping around his aching cock, tipping his head so he can catch Cas' lower lip briefly between his teeth before letting go. ]


Not yet. I want to make this last.

[ He sure hopes Cas packed some lube in that kit he brought out, cause that's what he's fumbling for, groping along the floorboard for cold plastic. HE doesn't need it quite yet, but he wants it handy for later. ]
