♊︎ 𝖌𝖊𝖒𝖎𝖓𝖎

𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐧 ⭑ love at first sight ๋࣭ ⭑ the banter hits too fast, the chemistry gets annoying immediately, and dean decides you’re trouble before admitting trouble is exactly his type. 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐚𝐦 ⭑ love at first sight ๋࣭ ⭑ your mind catches his first, and then your smile catches the rest of him before he can intellectualize his way out of it.

♋︎ 𝖈𝖆𝖓𝖈𝖊𝖗

𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐧 ⭑ best friends to lovers ๋࣭ ⭑ you take care of him in tiny ways until one day he realizes he’s been coming home to you without calling it that. 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐚𝐦 ⭑ best friends to lovers ๋࣭ ⭑ you make him feel safe too slowly for him to panic, which is exactly how you end up becoming everything.

♌︎ 𝖑𝖊𝖔

𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐧 ⭑ love at first sight ๋࣭ ⭑ you’re warm, bold, gorgeous about existing, and dean clocks you instantly. subtle? no. doomed? absolutely. 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐚𝐦 ⭑ best friends to lovers ๋࣭ ⭑ sam has to get past the shine first, but once he sees the heart underneath, he starts falling in the quietest, most embarrassing way.

♍︎ 𝖛𝖎𝖗𝖌𝖔

𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐧 ⭑ best friends to lovers ๋࣭ ⭑ you correct him, patch him up, save his ass, and somehow become the person he trusts most while he’s busy pretending you’re annoying. 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐚𝐦 ⭑ best friends to lovers ๋࣭ ⭑ it starts with research, shared looks, quiet competence, and then suddenly sam is emotionally dependent on your little “i found something.”

♒︎ 𝖆𝖖𝖚𝖆𝖗𝖎𝖚𝖘

𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐧 ⭑ love at first sight ๋࣭ ⭑ you confuse him immediately, and because dean is dean, confusion somehow becomes attraction with a side of attitude. 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐚𝐦 ⭑ best friends to lovers ๋࣭ ⭑ sam needs time to understand your weird little universe, but once he does, he wants a permanent address there.

♓︎ 𝖕𝖎𝖘𝖈𝖊𝖘

𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐧 ⭑ best friends to lovers ๋࣭ ⭑ you sneak past his defenses by being gentle, and by the time he notices, he’s already softer around you than he has any right to be. 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐚𝐦 ⭑ love at first sight ๋࣭ ⭑ your empathy hits him straight in the chest, and sam immediately wants to protect you, understand you, and probably write sad poetry about it.

sleepy!sam who hugs you from behind and tucks his face into your shoulder when he's tired

sleepy!sam who is really freaking warm.. making him perfect to nap with! :D

sleepy!sam who loves it when you let him nap with his head on your chest and you play with his hair

sleepy!sam who chronically drools, and is self-conscious of the fact

sleepy!sam who is the most adorable guy when he wakes up

sleepy!sam who (despite being sleepy) either needs 900 mg of caffeine to stay awake or 900 mg of melatonin to stay asleep, there's no in between

when sam wasn't getting up you smacked his ass to get him up and moving and he was pissed at you for the rest of the week.. lol

when sam was sleeping you took a photo of him and when he found it he was so embarrassed :(

sleepy!sam who loves cuddling with you. loves it. he loves laying on you and spooning you especially, but he isn't picky when it comes to how you guys cuddle.

sleepy!sam who gets paranoid that he's just a bit too big for you, especially when he engulfs you with all 6'4 of him. "'m i getting too heavy, baby?" he'd look up at you and ask with his big puppy eyes, and even if he was, you'd shake your head no and tell him he wasn't because how could you say no to him?

sleepy!sam who sleeps face down typically which is so cute because.. because it is idk

He'll make a last-minute stop after work - at any store that he thinks might sell some half-decent flowers, and wherever he can find the perfume you like. Maybe throw in some of your favorite chocolates if he can find them, or anything else that makes it seem like he didn't forget.

The man is a workaholic, and he often gets tunnel vision on his cases, so he tends to lack on the day-to-day opportunities to "spoil" you in the traditional sense.

He does like to eat out a lot though (because before he met you, he rarely had time to cook), so he'll often take you to nice restaurants and new spots you might want to try or places he hears about from Finau or Bell. He also takes cues from Sheppard sometimes for more creative date ideas.

As a Cali detective, he does get paid decently well, so be sure to remind him when the important days in your relationship are coming up.

What he'll do is treat you to expensive spa days on your birthday, and anything else you might have mentioned wanting off-hand.

One thing about Mark, he hangs onto the details when he knows what his target is.

So when he surprises you on Christmas day (the one holiday he definitely won't forget) with plane tickets to a place you've always wanted to go on vacation, you're genuinely shocked, and even a bit emotional before you practically smother him with affection.

Your reaction definitely makes him warm inside, as well as a bit smug and cocky.

He knows this just won him brownie points for the next ten years at least, and he'll be sure to remind you of this day - every fucking year.

᯽ Russell Shaw

Russell is also not the guy to remember important dates and inherently know how to be the boyfriend/husband who spoils you, because before you, his lifestyle didn't leave a whole lot of room for normal relationships.

I mentioned in his boyfriend training hc that poor Russ struggles with basic things, like checking in with you when he's away on a job, or remembering to close cabinets after he finds the thing he was looking for, or resisting the urge to toss your expensive pots and pans in the dishwasher along with all the other dishes. 

But he's good at the things that he thinks are important, like making the most of his time with you when he’s home:

Taking you out for dinner, to the movies, to street fairs and grocery store runs and whatever else you might come up with for you and Russ to do together.

He's easy going and rolls with most of your ideas, often indulging you even when it's not something he thinks would be fun - like walking around in the heat at a farmer's market, or that time you wanted to go to a "paint and sip." (He brought a six-pack of his freshly brewed beer and mostly watched you paint.)

Russell may not be the "big gesture" guy, but he shows his consideration for you in the little things that amount to the big things as he continues to learn how to be a man you can rely on.

᯽Beau Arlen

Beau's a sweetheart who will indulge you in most things you ask of him - whether it's picking up food from your favorite restaurant or taking you to a music festival, even if he's not crazy about the genre or band.

He's usually the opportunist spoiler, buying your favorite candle because he noticed it at the store while shopping for groceries, or remembering your favorite ice cream flavor. He might mess it up by buying the wrong brand, but the man's not perfect.

He's game for the farmer's market, the play you want to see, the museum you want to visit, the wine tasting, even the deep tissue couples massage you found on Groupon (and he openly admits that the hot stones and face mask were his favorite parts).

His work often takes up his focus and his time though, so like Mark, you'll have to float these ideas to him and be sure to remind him more than once, but one thing he puts his foot down on is glamping.

Aside from the bad taste in his mouth that Sunny Day Excursions left him with, he just flat out doesn't believe in that bullshit. Either he's taking you real camping, or he's renting a nice lake house to take you on a nice vacation - just you and him and the mountain air.

᯽ Dean Winchester

Dean, Dean, Dean...

Well, he may not be a big gesture guy either in the classic sense of expensive gifts and vacation getaways, but the way he shows he cares is through all the things he does for you -

Cooking for you: as much as he loves food, he really likes taking care of you and Sam this way and gets genuine enjoyment out of seeing both of you like something he worked hard to make for you. He put his all into that cheeseburger and homemade fries - whether he admits it or not.

Your car: he'll tune it up for you with the same care and attention to detail as he does his Baby.

His time: Dean's a quality time guy, much like Mark, Russell, and Beau. For Dean, he shows it best with movie marathons in the Dean Cave, chilling in bed watching TV and talking about everything and nothing in between, and long drives in the Impala, just you and him and the open road with his hand on your thigh and one of his cassettes setting the soundtrack of the day - one of his rare, perfect days with you.

Your protection: It's not "spoiling" or even "indulging," but it must be said how far Dean would go to protect you once you're under his skin and embedded in his heart. We know the man loves with his whole body and soul, even if his gruff exterior doesn't always allow him to express it.

If you're a hunter, he gets into the habit of cleaning and sharpening your weapons along with his because he wants to make sure you're safe. He follows you closely on hunts because he wants to make sure you're safe. He'll make the reckless choice every time if it protects you and Sam more than himself, because he can't afford to lose either of you.

Your body: The way Dean makes love to you is an act of service in itself. When you two have time to take it slow the way he likes, he's thorough, his hands mapping out and worshipping all his favorite places. Because he's learned your body so well, he knows exactly how to make you fall apart every time he touches you.

᯽ Soldier Boy (Ben)

lmfao I struggled to figure out Ben at first, because on one hand, he's the most inherently self-centered of all these guys.

He measures most of his actions by what he intends to gain from it, especially with his rich boi upbringing and his decades of debauchery and fame whoring.

On the other hand, I feel like he'd so be the one to try to hook you with expensive and over-the-top gifts if his version of "flirting" doesn't do the trick.

But once Ben's actually invested in an honest relationship with you, those random gifts don't change. He'll buy you a $5,000 necklace just because he was in the store buying himself a watch, and he saw something that he thought would look nice on you - especially bouncing between your tits while he's fucking you later.

(He jokes - mid stroke - that next he'll give you a "pearl necklace." Make it a matching set.)

If you're not into jewelry though, he knows other ways to spoil you as well as himself.

He'll take you to fancy restaurants, bypassing the waiting lists using his fame and a wink tossed at you as his big, warm hand spans the small of your back (definitely copping a feel of your ass when the hostess eventually leads you to your table).

You take all this with a roll of your eyes, but you smile and allow this cavemanish behavior because by now you know his intentions - it's not just about his pride, and a male ego the size of Empire State. He genuinely wants you to have a good time.

He orders an entire bottle of wine just for you, and scotch for himself. He always encourages you to order whatever you want, and he himself orders appetizers and dessert even if you're probably going to take most of it home - because he can, and he won't ever have it said that he doesn't spoil the fuck out of you.

Mind you, some of his gifts are more than a little self-serving lol

He'll buy you lingerie with the express purpose of ripping it off the first time you wear it - inch by inch.

He'll make you tremble and come with the wealth of experience in his hands and mouth, and he won't stop until the only thing in your mouth is his name.

But of course, this man fully expects some special attention in return for "how well" he treats you.

You may roll your eyes (again) and have a pointed retort ready about everything you already do for him. Aside from the obvious, you've created a home with him, showed him how to navigate the modern world, and you've been the only woman in his long life who's genuinely loved him.

"All right. Come on, sweetheart," he says. "I just ate your pussy like a three-course fucking meal. Had your thighs squeezing my head like a fucking grape, like you wanted me to suffocate down there. Think it's time you showed this cock some appreciation, huh?"

Despite his deeply smug, insufferable smirk that makes you want to slap him, regardless if it'll hurt him or not, it also makes you want to kiss him - half because it'll shut him the fuck up for a while.

But you can't help it. You love this insufferable asshole.

Your lips tug at a smile, and you repay him with a bit of spoiling too.

AN: lol honestly these were less so rankings and more just an exploration of how each guy would give you some special care and attention. Which one was your favorite? Any other takes on how he'd "spoil" you?

᯽ Soldier Boy (Ben): Physical Touch

Part of this is going to be in an HC coming soon, but I think this idea would be true especially in the Break Me Down-verse (SB x Reader), the Lost On You series (SB x Supe!Reader), and even in Unravel Me (SB x Latina!Reader).

Thanks to his extensive time in captivity, Ben is very aware (and avoidant) of physical touch.

A fight is a fight. Combat is combat—through suits and armor and leather gloves and weapons.

The only time he willingly allows someone to put his hands on him is if it's a precursor to sex, and of course, during the act itself.

But after he meets you, it becomes a gradual transition to more meaningful touch.

And it does take a while for him to get used to gentler kinds of intimate touch again, not just as sexual foreplay...

Like your hand wrapped in his while walking together.

A gentle brush across his back as you pass by him in the house.

The way you run your fingers through his hair, giving his scalp a gentle scratch.

Or those rare intimate moments, where you lure him closer to the edge of vulnerability with a simple caress of his cheek.

The more he gets used to it, the more he secretly begins to crave it. And the more natural it feels to express himself to you through touch as well.

After all, he considers himself more a man of action, than a man of words.

᯽Dean Winchester: Comfortable Silence

I've explored this in the Midnight Espresso-verse (Dean x Plus-Size Latina!Reader), but as Dean has matured and lived through so much throughout the show, I've often thought this about him:

Because it's so damn rare that he and Sam get quiet moments between the shit storms and apocalyptic-level events, Dean very much values his peace.

Aside from working on his Baby or taking a drive, he listens to music to unwind; to just sit and be for a while.

He also likes it when you join him.

You don't need to speak or ask him questions. You know what he's doing, you know what this moment is for him, and you don't want to disturb it.

You just take a spot next to him on the couch, or better yet, sidle up next to him in bed with your own earbuds/headphones, your laptop, a book, whatever hobby you bring to occupy your time.

(Or maybe you just want to take a nap next to the man who makes you feel safe.)

There in that space, you and Dean settle into a comfortable silence, which has its own special form of intimacy.

(Even if Dean would never call it that.)

His arm raises to accommodate you at his side. He acknowledges you with a squeeze of your arm or your hand, his arm wrapping around your frame, or sometimes just a deep sigh of contentment that breathes through his nose.

He's home. Sam, Cas, Jack—everyone in his world is good, and he's with you.

What else does he need?

᯽Beau Arlen: Overprotective

For as quirky and funny and passionate as Beau can be, sometimes those quirks have adverse side effects lol. This would especially be true in the Take Me Home-verse.

After the "summer madness" of Buck Barnes and Avery, and everything in between, Beau wants Emily's location on his phone, as well as yours, at all times.

Understandable.

But he also develops a habit of driving by his daughter's school or your job a few times a week, claiming "he was in the area" whenever you notice his location is close by. Sometimes he disguises it by dropping in on you for lunch.

But you can always tell when he's hedging. For a cop, and a sheriff, mind you, he doesn't always have a great poker face.

Beau likes to go on errands with you whenever he can. Not only because he likes to do those kinds of mundane things with you, but because as much as he's come to like this town, he doesn't trust it anymore.

On times when he can't go somewhere with you himself, you notice that he'll text you or call you: "Hey, you got to the store, right? We actually need bread, and some milk, if that's not on your list already."

You snort. "Yeah, babe. I've definitely got bread and milk."

"Okay, how about some pie? Popcorn let me know it's two-for-one this week."

You shake your head and smile. Does he have Poppernak doing grocery store reconnaissance now?

"All right, I'll get you some pie," you say, trying not to laugh at the mental image of one of Beau's deputies hiding in the parking lot shrubs.

"Thanks, honey. And, uh, mind texting me when you're on the way home?"

"Will do," you promise. And that's become your habit too.

You never begrudge him these little "check-ins," in whatever shape or form they come.

You know it comes from a place of love, but also from a part of him that's still frayed, and may never fully be healed.

(You'll do your best to soothe that too.)

᯽Mark Meachum: Girl Dad

This is probably in my head because of the 'Til When Do Us Part-verse, but...

Once Mark knows he's going to be a father, it begins to ground him and mature him in ways even he didn't think possible.

He's spent most of his life on the edge, even before he thought he was dying.

He's also spent a lot of his life embracing the "lone wolf" persona, avoiding deeper intimacy in relationships that might demand more from him than he feels he has time to give.

Of course, that began to change when he met you. It's certainly changing him now that you're pregnant.

(Similar to SB/Ben, when you're having his child) Mark would want a boy. In his mind, boys are easier to handle, and certainly easier for him to connect to.

Like any man, he already envisions teaching his son about the world: how to toss a football, how to talk to girls, and importantly, how to shoot a .9 mm from over 50 feet away from the target.

(Also similar to Ben) Mark has that twinge of disappointment when he finds out you're actually having a girl. There goes his fantasy of the man-to-man bonding that he didn't get with his own father.

But the second they put that little bundle of joy in his arms, Mark is putty in her pudgy little hands.

Already he can see himself buying the kid her first bike, taking her to soccer practice, warning her about dumbass boys, and scaring the ever living shit out of the ones brave enough to come home with her.

Right now though, she's soft and fragile but perfectly his, and perfectly yours.

Just like that, Mark's internal axis shifts, and that little girl is his whole world.

He'll do anything to protect that world, and the family he didn't think he'd get to have.

᯽Russell Shaw: Boyfriend Training

Russell is a good man who's served his country and loves his family, but I think he would have a bit of a learning curve when it comes to long-term relationships. 😅 This is definitely a theme I've explored in the Every Second Counts-verse.

The man left home in his late teens and joined the military not long after. He hasn't had much stability in his life ever since.

The Army might've given him discipline, but it also likely took him all over the world on deployment.

Even when he got out of the military, his contract work with Horizon has kept him on the road, in the lifestyle of endless motels and occasional hookups.

It doesn't point to a record of stable, healthy relationships—something that definitely gave you pause before you started dating him.

You need to teach this man everything: from checking in with you when he's away on a job, to simply remembering to close the toothpaste cap. Toilet seat down. Your expensive pots and pans do not go in the dishwasher. The trash goes out to the curb on Thursdays. Your pint of Ben & Jerry's chocolate chip cookiedough ice cream is sacred. And is it that hard to empty the coffee grounds into the trashcan when he's done?

In your mind, you call it boyfriend training.

He does well at the things he thinks are most important though:

Checking that the doors and windows are locked at night.

Tuning up your car as well as his (he can't believe you left that oil light on for three months).

Calling or texting you to let you know he's on his way home.

Making the most of his time with you when he's there, like taking you out for dinner, to the movies, to street fairs and grocery store runs and whatever else you might come up with for you and Russ to do together.

Russell's biggest learning curve, though, is that for all his quips and quirky sense of humor, he doesn't always know how and when to truly communicate. How to share more of himself with you, who he is, and what he's experienced.

Part of the problem is that he really can't tell you a lot of it. His Special Ops missions, jobs for Horizon, all of it is sensitive information, and it's also safer for you if you don't know the details.

But it means he'll try harder to continue showing you who he is now.

He'll continue learning how to be a supportive, reliable partner, and be the man he wants to be for you.

This was such a fun RQ, Michelle, thanks!! Hope you enjoy these random HCs lol! 😘❤️❤️
