Sam Winchester Appreciation Week: Day Seven - Happy Birthday, Sam! @prelawsam@suncaptor Thanks so much you two for putting this together. I had a really great time, and it really reminded of just how much I love Sam. Thank you.
tw for PTSD flashbacks
Sam had all the paperwork done, had talked to multiple social workers, talked to the breeder, the trainer, had sequestered away all the supplies he needed, and now, he was enjoying a drive back to the bunker with a golden lab in the passenger seat. The trainer had been nice, had looked at the paperwork and wished him a happy birthday.
It was a nice day too: blue sky, sunny, warm. He had the windows rolled down. His dog—holy crap, I have a dog—didn’t stick her head out the window though. She stayed attentive on him, as she was supposed to. It was a little strange, but he appreciated it.
The road was clear and straight, so Sam leaned over to ruffle her head. Her fur was soft beneath his hand, and she lifted her head up into his touch.
For Day 2 of the tajihana ship week held by @oofurishipweeks and the prompt used was “Warmth - noun. the quality, state, or sensation of being warm; moderate and comfortable heat; enthusiasm, affection, or kindness.” (IM SORRY I AM LATE)
Describing someone was not difficult to do especially when that person is known so well. If you were to ask Hanai to explain any of his teammates, he would gladly comply. Yet when asked about one Tajima Yuuichirou, Hanai came up blank and suddenly describing someone became the most difficult thing in the world.
There was just no simple, easy way to describe Tajima. The man had too many sides to narrow it down to a handful of words. Even then Hanai was concerned that they wouldn’t capture Tajima’s personality or skills. It just wouldn’t be fair.
Butif he were to use just a single word to define Tajima… well, he would say Tajima was akin to coals. An odd choice at first but looked beneath the surface, the comparison seemed to fit rather well.
The eyes, for instance, were always portrayed as the windows to the soul. Hanai had found the idea ludicrous until he met Tajima. It pained him to think about because the whole thing sounded cliche but it was true. There was something about Tajima’s eyes that captivated and held his attention for much longer than Hanai ever thought possible.
They were expressive. Tajima could never hide his feelings from those around him. His eyes tinged with the color of red spoke volumes when his mouth (on rare occasions) was silent. They spoke of untold stories. Hanai could stare at them for hours as they shifted color with Tajima’s mood from a dull warmth to fiery burning.
Yet Hanai’s favorite was when those eyes bore a likeness to the fading embers of coals. He enjoyed the fiery passion that shone in those eyes when Tajima spoke of things he loved as well, but Hanai quite liked the warmth he felt spread through his body whenever Tajima looked at him with that smoldering gaze that could alight at any minute. It filled his body with anticipation of what would come next.
There was so much love in that one look that Hanai swore if he were to touch it, he’d burn. Yet he felt nothing but comfort in it and cherished it deeply. Warmed from the inside out, Hanai couldn’t help but think those eyes were truly a look into Tajima’s passionate soul. The thought left Hanai grinning. Stupid cliches.
For@oofurishipweeks tajihana week day 1! I went with a very veryloose interpretation of the Amnesiac AU option. Basically, a pre-amnesia thing? IDK but there’s angst ahead.
FYI: I’ve been in a rut in terms of writing so I may or may not be using this week to play with writing styles. And that means I’m 100% trying new things. I’m sorry I wrote this in less than an hour.
Shouts and careless words yell in the moment. Tempers flare like fires breathing in oxygen and growing with each foolhardy sentence tossed about. Chasms rip open with each insecurity exploited - so wide that simple words or gestures will never fill the gaps.
Impulsivity… Anger… Resentment…
The symbols of love and trust. Memories lie scattered on the floor. They wait for someone to pick up the pieces but they remain - broken. Doors slam and there’s the sound of an engine roaring to life. Tires spin on pavement, filling the air with their screeching in their haste to escape, and in their wake silence falls.
Boiling blood cools ever slowly. Breaths shake and hitch ever so slightly. The fiery red leaves an ache - deep and empty. Realization settles in and sobs ripple through the air with raw emotion.
Reckless… Rash… Hotheaded…
The hours tick by and the clock chimes again and again. The words said cannot be retrieved. They circle, attacking the mind over and over. A poison that cannot be remedied no matter the excuses that spill from tongues. They repeat causing a new ache, a new sickness, with each replay.
Silence breaks with the shrill call of the phone. Trembling fingers fumble with buttons. An unknown number, an unknown voice. Exhaustion licks at his body. His muscles give and he slides to the floor. Another sob chokes him. Fresh tears burn his eyes as his vision blurs and shakes.
Confusion… Dread… Sorrow…
The words whisper cruelly into his ears. His fault. His wish.
I wish I never even knew you!
The universe - in a sick twist - grants his desire.
This is for day 6 of AbeMiha week @oofurishipweeks. It was really hard to choose which sport to do for the alternate sport AU prompt. But I guess I’ve got summer fever or something since I keep putting these two on the beach XD
Welp, this is my last submission for this fan week. If all goes according to plan you should be seeing me again for rare pair week, see ya!
@oofurishipweeks Abemiha fantasy AU: Mihashi is a scared wandering samurai with Abe a wizard who wants to protect the samurai from monsters such as the giant Gashadokuro
You’ve come across the young witch Mihashi and his familiar Abe in the woods!While the familiar looks like more of a threat, don’t let your guard down around the innocent looking witch.
This is for day 3 of AbeMiha week @oofurishipweeks. I really wanted to participate in this AU and I’m so glad I did! I really like this idea of Mihashi being a witch with a bossy familiar that helps him refine his craft. I’d like to flesh this idea out more some time. I’m not totally happy with how this piece came out but I’m on a time crunch so it’ll have to do for now. Hopefully I can redo it sometime after I’ve mastered the art of doing eye whites correctly XD
Anyways, hope you like it and I’ll see you again on day 6 with an alternate sport AU!
Day 6 Prompt: Forgiveness - noun. the action or process of forgiving or being forgiven.
Summary: Sometimes help takes form in the most unlikely places and people.
“You should go talk to someone.”
That’s what one of his sisters had said when Hanai spoke with her about his worries, doubts, and fears. “It’s not healthy and it’s not fair to either of you.” He had agreed with her and she told him she’d help him find someone, but no matter the person, he had found an excuse as to why they weren’t right. “I can’t help you if you’re not willing to try.”
Continue of AO3 (please read tags, possible sensitive topics)
Prompt: Collapse - verb. (of a structure) fall down or in; give way - (of a person) fall down and become unconscious, typically through illness or injury.
I’m determined to finish these prompts even if they’re late. I love these ship weeks and I wanna contribute :) (also another loose interpretation LOL)
Tap! Tap! Tap!
His eyes roam over the page of notes. Words and sentences of various subjects dot the page, beginning as neat and tidy characters and slowly declining into messy and unfinished lines. He can’t even read half of it as the words go on. He’s also 100% sure that the lines that drag down the page are from him falling asleep in the middle of class.
For Day 4 of tajihana ship week held for @oofurishipweeks using the prompt Risk- noun/verb. a situation involving exposure to danger; expose (someone or something valued) to danger, harm, or loss.
TW: slight internalized homophobia (he’s working through it)
Hanai takes risks. He takes risks during each game he plays. Every at bat he has to take a chance on the pitches thrown his way. It’s why he’s keenly aware that if he never takes the risk, he might never succeed or get the outcome he wants.
He knows this. He knows this to his very core. It’s probably written straight into his DNA at this point. Yet sometimes the fear sinks its claws so deep that taking the first step toward that chance becomes so difficult you can hardly breathe. It’s debilitating as your body freezes and you know what you should be doing but just can’t.
Day 3 (I’m posting super late sorry been busy) of tajihana week for @oofurishipweeks prompt is Dance - verb. move rhythmically to music, typically following a set sequence of steps. [I tried first person pov this time and I love Sakaeguchi so much you don’t understand.]
“I can’t do this.”
“Sure you can!”
“No, Tajima,” I say as the panic begins to well up inside me, “you don’t understand.”
Tajima huffs as he folds his arms behind his head, looking over me carefully. “So you’re just going to give up just like that?”
