what a peculiar thing you are

It's no secret that this is the Destiel website and I am a Destiel girlie. For years I've wanted to host an event that would let us come together to celebrate Dean & Cas and their queerness. This June seems the perfect time to finally commit to it! 

I know the Destiel fandom hasn't had it easy over the years - we've been called many things from delusional to perverted but the truth is that Dean & Cas' love is beautiful and deserves to be celebrated, openly and fiercly!  So let's celebrate! 💚💙

Here are 30 prompts for the 30 days in June.

All types of creations - art, fic, edits, gif sets etc. are welcome! 

You can post on the day of the prompt or later during the entire month of June. No need to do all of the prompts, pick and choose at your own pace!

Please use the tag #destielpride to make sure I won’t miss any of your wonderful creations 😊

*N*S*F*W content is allowed as long as it's tagged with #destielpridensfw in addition to the main tag. 

For creators under 18: please refrain from posting works that aren't SFW.

(Even though this is meant to be a Destiel centric event, everyone is welcome to join & use the prompts to create works for other SPN pairs or even for other fandoms.)

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone spread some Destiel love over the next month. Oh and happy pride! 🌈

For a long time I've headcanoned angelic trueforms as looking a little like giant cosmic jellyfish, and have tried several times to draw the vision. It's never quite worked, and I'm still not 100% happy with this version, but it's definitely getting closer.

These are the jellyfish pictures I used in particular while coming up with the concept for Cas' trueform in this ficlet. I tried blending aspects of these with aspects of what are commonly referred to these days as "biblically accurate angels" -- mostly thrones, which yeah, I know, Cas is a seraph, but in the words of Ron Swanson... I can do what I want.

This was just an earlier concept of Cas' self portrait. I still like the halo, but ultimately didn't end up liking it on the newer version.

Below is an earlier draft of the concept I eventually used, before I'd changed some colors and added more layers of wings/eyes/feathers etc. My hand slipped when I had a thick brush selected and accidentally drew him slurping Dean with a mildly horrifying prehensile tongue 😅
