Summary
Castiel, an overworked and underpaid sales rep for Sandover Bridge & Iron, is daily tortured by his cubicle-mate (read: mortal enemy), Dean. When Dean’s not actively making his life worse by using and abusing his office supplies, his picture at the top of the sales pyramid is taunting him. It’s a reminder to Cas of his own inadequacy always lurking in the corner of his eye that only further stokes the flames of his hatred for Dean, causing things to get a bit stabby. When the two are tapped for a special project about building positive relationships in the workplace, they’re forced to figure out a way to become friends so they can sell it. Amidst all the praise they receive for their workshop, a potential promotion is put on the table between them, threatening the delicate balance they maintain as they teeter on the tightrope of societal expectations, and neither is sure if their budding relationship can survive the impact with the ground below. The popularity of their workshop eventually sees the two men on a national stage and the more time they spend together, the closer they ultimately get until neither man can recognize the relationship they began with, and things once again get a bit stabby.
Artistic Statement
So many non-traditional forms of art involve the stabbing of a tool into something else. Thinking of the brand Cas left on Dean when they first met, I thought turning it into a literal stamp would be funny.
