okay but where are all the science nerds geologist!cas and astrophysicist!dean aus? just like endless pages of dean and cas being utter fucking nerds debating string theory alongside the finer points of the carbon cycle. going on dates where they're laid out on a blanket looking at the stars not because it's romantic, but because they're naming constellations and looking through the university's $10,000 telescope. eating in the cafeteria and arguing about NASA's upcoming mission to mars. complaining about the fact that their 101 students are not excited about mechanics or earth system science. dean's first gift to cas being a meteorite pendant. cas's first gift to dean being one of those cheesy deeds to a star. just like, dean and cas being super nerdy and watching planet earth and stephen hawking documentaries in their spare time and being total freaking science nerds.
