[ID: half-effort destiel fanart
1. Dean, wearing a brown leather coat, facing Castiel with a neutral expression, Cas waving awkwardly with a shy grin. Dean’s thought bubble reads, “wow, he’s so cool”
2. Another scene, Dean (now in a blue canvas jacket) standing almost nose-to-nose with Cas, who looks a little flustered. Dean’s face is still neutral. His thought bubble reads, “I wish he could feel how I feel.”
3. Another scene, Dean and Cas at a small bar table, both in suits and with beers in hand. Cas has lost his trenchcoat and appears a little tipsy, winking at Dean with an encouraging smile. Ol Stone Face Dean is thinking, “but angels can’t love, it just breaks them apart.”
4. A scene in a crypt, a concerned and confused Cas reaching down to cup the face of a kneeling Dean, who is bloodied and near-weeping, wearing a green jacket. Dean’s thought bubble: “I don’t deserve it, anyway”
5. Another scene, Cas facing away from the viewer to hug Dean with both arms around his neck. Dean has both hands on Cas’s back and is gazing into space, thinking “I’ll just pine forever and never hope for something more”
6. Another scene, Cas with tears in his eyes and his hand on Dean’s left shoulder, clearly saying “I love you,” while Dean stares back blankly, wearing a blue jacket.
7. Same scene, reaction shot from Dean. Just the most shocked look ever. Picture the dictionary definition for shock and times it by at least ten. Physical embodiment of “??!!?!?!?” His mouth is open so wide his eyes are drifting off the side of his head. The drama lines in the background took me 10 minutes to do. What the hell did he think was going to happen. Just so surprised and shocked and gobsmacked. An almost-visible handprint left on his shoulder.
