chapter three: fuck off
Boston Bruins face off tonight against Pittsburgh Penguinsâcan Boston keep up its winning streak for the fifth game in a row?
Eddie was skating like a goddamn god. It had been three weeks since he last saw Steve but theyâd both been at the absolute top of their game. Steve had won his own game against the Oilers in his third shutout game in a row the night before (and the arenas had started playing Steve a song when he racked up another shut outâWerewolves of London, which Eddie loved, although it seemed like Steve noticeably flinched every single time it came on), and Eddie had scored more goals in the last three weeks than he had in the entire pre-season.
Seemed like a little healthy competition between rivals was exactly what they both needed to rocket themselves to another level of stardom.
And this game was no different. They were up 3-1 in the second half of the second period, and Eddie was feeling fucking good. The team was playing in sync tonight, Archieâd made one of the goals and Eddie netted the other Jeff had the puck right now, deking around the Leafsâ garbage offensive line. He flipped Eddie the puck and Eddie caught it smooth, but before he had a chance to slip it to Archie he felt a body hit his, his hip slamming him into the plexis, and he went down hard. The other playerâs elbow had caught his ribs in a way that was decidedly unsportsmanlike, and Eddie bounced off the plexi and hit the ice with his knees.

Dean Winchester hasnât had roots since he was four years old. Since his mom was killed, the only home heâs known has been the Impala, too busy carrying on the family business to miss having one.
Cas has roots, and he despises them. Maybe heâs left his family behind, but itâs hard to let go of something youâve been told your whole life.
When Dean and Casâ paths collide on a hunt, perhaps thereâs something to be learned.
The thing about roots is that they can be replanted somewhere new. And, they always grow back.
chapter three is up! read it in full here on ao3 or preview it under the cut. or, start from the beginning.
In all honesty, Cas wasnât entirely sure what Charlie saw in The Hobbit. The writing didn't particularly stand out as excellentâ it was unnecessarily denseâ and he didn't care for the plot. The characters didnât feel exceptionally well rounded to him. The bookâs one redeeming quality, he supposed, was the world building.
It gets so good! she had promised. I swear!
Trying to finish his chapter before he retired to his room for the night, Cas was beginning to doubt her.
Theyâd been tentative friends (or at least, Cas had been a tentative friend and Charlie dove all in) for a few weeks. Since then, she had made it her mission to catch him up on everything that heâd missed during his âsad, secluded, character building childhood,â from books to games to tv shows to movies. On quiet days at the bed and breakfast, Charlie would pop up and shove a book or a stack of them into Casâ hands, or drag him off to his room lugging a backpack of DVDs with. Charlie was a lot, but Cas had found that he liked her.
Mildred had also been over more. He saw her once a week at the farmerâs market, and it seemed she was making a pattern of seeking him out once every other week instead of at random intervals. Cas talked more with Jody and Donna, too, at market days, and had slowly been getting to know Aaron, who ran the local floristâs.
And, of course, there was Dean. Maybe Dean wasnât here in Himmel, but they texted and called each other.
It was different than the quiet, secluded life heâd initially made for himself. Talking to people outside guestsâ having friends was different. Cas liked it, even if it was hard getting the whispering in his head to shut up sometimes. Despite his decisiveness, telling the rule book heâd followed since the beginning of his existence to go fuck itself wasnât like flipping a switch. Sometimes he found himself freezing up while he was over at Charlieâs for a movie night because he wasnât supposed to do this. He made hasty retreats sometimes when he talked with Aaron over the counter after buying a new bloom.
Being alone helped. Using the quiet to remind himself that it was fine, things were okay, it wasnât like that anymore. Reading offered an escape when things were too quiet. And strangely enough, Dean helped, too. Cas had found that talking to Dean was easier than hanging out with Charlie, or carrying a conversation with Mildred. Maybe because it was because he couldnât see his faceâ maybe that made it easier for Cas to disassociate these conversations with breaking rules. Sometimes, when they were texting, he couldnât hear Deanâs voice.
And Dean was already different. Something about him stood apart from the others.

On the Third Day of Christmas, my true love gave to meâŚ
The third chapter of Fully Grown!

Summary:
The pup smells of summer, of heat in the air, lightning in the sky.
 No amount of growling sends him running; he just keeps standing there, staring. Heâs no threat though, smells of sparks but not of fire, no taste of ashes on the tongue.
 Satisfied, he turns around, leaving the pup behind, ignoring the acid scent of anxiety and fear that suddenly fills the air.
~*~
Stumbling across a wolf in the preserve is not what Stiles expects when he goes for a run the last night before school starts again. But even if the wolf acts more intelligent than a mere animal, he canât have anything to do with Stilesâ unusual soulmark, four vicious scratches down his forearm, can he?
And what is Kate Argent doing back in Beacon Hills for the first time since the Hale Fire?
This fic has been a long time in the making!
Wayyyy back, @jerakeencâ posted a soulmark prompt on tumblr (or rather an addendum to the prompt Of dogs and deer darcy is based on) and how could I ever resist a soulmate AU!
Me and this fic would have never made it to the end together without the immeasurable help from my amazing beta @ohfuckthisshit and  my wonderful cheerleader @loverofcake! Thank you both so much for all your help!
Iâll post this fic as a Twelve Days of Christmas gift, so the next chapter will already be posted tomorrow! And now, without further ado: Happy reading!
