Secret Recipes To Try At Home

Vous vs. Tu, French “you”. 

Chart from the LA Times.

last night i found this girl on tik tok who found out this random ass celebrity she’s obsessed with Might have a girlfriend so she posted this

and i’ve been losing my mind ever since then

Some kaisoo shippers be fighting about topsoo and bottomsoo and I’m like.

I had a dream that I lived in a town on the edge of reality. There was a map showing the location of the town in spacetime, and it was depicted as teetering on the edge of the event horizon of a funnel-shaped warp in reality. Like light a certain distance away from a black hole, we were unable to escape the influence of the warp, but not drawn in by it completely, either.

Our proximity to Unreality conferred many advantages, and we were able to do things in our town that weren’t actually possible. We could survive fatal accidents and walk away without a scratch. Things that were lost forever were found again, and sometimes, if you didn’t think about it too directly, failures transformed into successes just like that. It was as though thought itself was a physical substance that could bend the shape of the world in our favor. Life was good in the little town of Event Horizon, where things always seemed to work out and Lady Luck lived on our side.

But Event Horizon also experienced “reality-quakes”. Now and then the fabric of spacetime would ripple, and shockwaves would rock our little town violently. Sometimes things would shake loose and get drawn in to the Unreality, and even people could be lost this way. They quakes weren’t common, but they seemed to be occurring with more frequency, leading to fears that we were becoming unmoored in spacetime and might lose the equilibrium that allowed us to survive and take advantage of the flexibility of reality.

Thought could stabilize things, if we projected our minds as physical forces to hold things in place. You could cast your thoughts out as a net and pull against the draw of Unreality. But that only worked if we were prepared and braced ourselves against the quake ahead of time, and people needed to work and eat and sleep and go to school. There was no way that everyone could be on anchoring duty all the time.

That’s why we had a lottery. Every twenty years, one among us would be selected to by the community to be the Achor for the entire town—a full-time psychic resistance against entropy. The Anchor would enter a trance state and project their mind out to touch every structure, every tree, every pebble, every person in Event Horizon, and hold them there. Constantly. For twenty years.

People would come to tend to the Anchor, to feed and bathe them and keep them comfortable, but the Anchor rarely became lucid enough to recognize them. It was a vital, respected, honorable position, but there was no glory in it. If you found out you had been selected to be the next Anchor, your family would grieve for you as though you had died. If you had children, they would be taken care of in a princely fashion as wards of the state, and your family would be honored and want for nothing, because even though your assignment was only twenty years, former Anchors did not tend to live for very long. They’d be made comfortable and lavished with good things, but their life energy would be sapped, and they’d fade away quickly.

My dream was 90% exposition and very little in-the-moment action, but I had just discovered that I would be the new Anchor, and I was not happy about it. The most vivid action scene I remember was standing in my kitchen staring at breakfast cereal boxes on a shelf and touching them with my mind, feeling every grain of cereal within and thinking, “Even this? Even this?”

Anyway, thanks brain, that was cool.

I. Dean and Cas winging those pesky couple studies

For Science! by pm_lo [NC-17, 21,600 word count]

Selected transcripts and supporting materials from Dr. Castiel Williams and Dean Winchester’s seminal study on physiological and psychological sexual response by gender designation.

Married for a Week by jessjessthebest [T, 11,600 word count]

“It wasn’t until he was standing at a fake altar in front of a fake priest clasping hands with Castiel Novak that Dean thought he may have made a terrible mistake.” Or the one where Dean and Cas get fake married. FOR SCIENCE! (Inspired by this video)

A Study in Fake by sternchencas [T, 5,000 word count] (#fluff, #roommates, #pining!cas, #pining!dean)

Although Dean has a job, he’s always looking for some extra money, so he’s bummed out when he can’t take part in a lucrative couples study at the local college. At least until Castiel Novak steps into his life out of nowhere and a throwaway joke turns into a serious relationship. Well, a fake one, but nobody needs to know that, right?

Do It For Science by robotsnchicks [NC-17, 5,000 word count] (#fluff, #college, #roommates, #bottom!dean, #friends to lovers)

When Dean finds an ad offering to pay $500 to committed couples willing to test and review condoms, it seems almost too good to be true. The only catch is that Dean’s been without a partner for a while now. When he convinces his roommate Cas to pretend to be his boyfriend it seems like a perfect solution, but he soon realizes that he may be in over his head.

Love Lab by youaresunlight [M, 5,400 word count] (#fluff, #college, #roommates, #pining!cas, #pining!dean, #friends to lovers)

When Dean sees the flyer for a research study offering $75 to participants, he doesn’t think twice before signing him and Cas up. The problem, of course, is that it’s a romantic couples study and while Cas is his roommate and best friend, they are very much not in a relationship.

When You Say Nothing at All by TrenchcoatBaby [NC-17, 36,000 word count] (#fluff, #a/b/o, #bonded, #teacher!cas, #pining!cas, #pining!dean, #charlie, #!megstiel)

At Stanford University, omega Dean Winchester and alpha Castiel Novak are complete and utter strangers. Dean’s on the ground’s crew, and Castiel is pursuing his PhD in literature. Under normal circumstances, their paths would never cross. But when they both agree to participate in an unusual case study observing alphas and omegas—the thesis project of anthropology major Charlie Bradbury—they find themselves alone and face to face. For hours each week. The catch? They’re forbidden to speak a word to each other, despite sharing an obvious and immediate crush. One might even call it true-mate level. Oh, this is gonna be torture.

II. Science lite - tips from magazines!

Just To Make You See by youaresunlight [T, 4,000 word count]

“I’ve been reading,” Cas explains, lifting his coat to reach for something inside. It’s another magazine but not one about nature or economics. It’s a GQ with a suave male celebrity gracing the cover. “There’s an article in here that gives advice to those who are ‘seeking to escape the friend zone.’”

the half marriage by jhoom [T, 2,100 word count] (#fluff, #college, #roommates, #friends to lovers)

Thursdays are spent with Castiel trying to study, and Dean trying to distract him from studying. Today’s weapon of choice: an internet article on the ‘10 Types of Odd Friendships You’re Probably Part Of.’

Ways to Drive Him Wild by FagurFiskur [NC-17, 6,000 word count] (#coworkers, #major age difference, #pining!dean, #pining!cas, bottom!dean)

After Dean tells his much-older boyfriend Castiel about his inexperience with men, he’s dismayed to find that Cas now keeps him at an arm’s length. Sitting down and talking about it is clearly out of the question, so when Dean goes to Jo for advice she suggests the next best thing: seduction tips from Cosmopolitan.
