do you ever just stop and think
Dean pulled himself out of his grave without any help
like
he trashed the coffin he was in and clawed his way back to the surface
like
what a BAMF is he?

Guess who did that first?


And on second thoughts… guess who did that TWICE?

Buffy is a double BAMF. ;)

Not gonna lie, I want a Buffy meets Dean AU, where she is just too badass for Dean to deal with coherently.

I miss New York so much right  now. I miss the city and the summer. I miss the clarity that comes from doing exactly what you want, in the place you want to do it. I miss the freedom. I miss the heat and passion. I miss the sounds at night and the feeling of the pavement. I miss feeling like I was a part of it, and I miss knowing, in my heart, without a doubt that one day I would be going back for longer than a few fleeting summer weeks.

THE THING ABOUT THINGS.i’ve loaned a lot of things to a lot of friends like dresses and records and books and some of the time i never see them again and in a weird way i think that it works because the thing about things is they start turning evil when you start to forget what they’re for and so if you’re not sure what you did with my bathing suit i’ll just try to love you a little bit more i had a ring it belonged to my grandfather he was a mason and gay and he was distant and bitter for all of my childhood and we never had much to say he wasn’t the type to give tokens of affection and so i stole ring when he died and twenty years later when i lost it at a bar i thought that’s fine I DIDN’T WANT HIM IN MY LIFE the thing about things is that they can start meaning things nobody actually said and if he couldn’t make the ring mean something for me i had to make up what it meant i can carry everything i need in one collapsing suitcase i can carry everyone i love in one phone application built to optimize the facetime with the ties i’m bent on making actually i want to be alone to mourn the loss of what this cost i collected you but now you are all lost i think it’s a poem and i think it keeps going i’ve borrowed and lost lots of things 3 nights ago in the bar where i lost it a bartender gave me the ring and i lie in bed with my phone in my hand thinking what can i fix with an app and i call my grandfather and he doesn’t answer and i have to make peace with that fact because the thing about things is that they can start looking like kindnesses nobody said and if you’re not allowed to love people alive then you learn how to love people dead because the thing about things is that they can start looking like kindnesses nobody said and if you’re not allowed to love people alive then you learn how to love people dead

THE THING ABOUT THINGS.

i’ve loaned a lot of things to a lot of friends
like dresses and records and books
and some of the time i never see them again
and in a weird way i think that it works

because the thing about things is they start turning evil
when you start to forget what they’re for
and so if you’re not sure what you did with my bathing suit
i’ll just try to love you a little bit more

i had a ring it belonged to my grandfather
he was a mason
and gay
and he was distant and bitter for all of my childhood
and we never had much to say

he wasn’t the type to give tokens of affection
and so i stole ring when he died
and twenty years later when i lost it at a bar
i thought
that’s fine
I DIDN’T WANT HIM IN MY LIFE

the thing about things is that they can start meaning things
nobody actually said
and if he couldn’t make the ring mean something for me
i had to make up what it meant

i can carry everything i need in one collapsing suitcase
i can carry everyone i love in one phone application
built to optimize the facetime with the ties i’m bent on making
actually i want to be alone
to mourn the loss
of what this cost
i collected you but now you are all lost

i think it’s a poem and i think it keeps going
i’ve borrowed and lost lots of things
3 nights ago in the bar where i lost it a bartender gave me the ring

and i lie in bed
with my phone in my hand
thinking
what can i fix with an app

and i call my grandfather
and he doesn’t answer
and i have to make peace with that fact

because the thing about things
is that they can start looking
like kindnesses nobody said
and if you’re not allowed to love people alive
then you learn how to love people dead

because the thing about things is that they can start looking
like kindnesses nobody said
and if you’re not allowed

to love people alive

then you learn how to love people dead
