Balthazar/Castiel reminds me of my videogame OTP of OTPs, Janos Audron/Vorador.
1) Ancient beings who spent most of it together? Check. 2) One reluctantly gives weapons of immense power to the other? Check. 3) One displays arrogance and amusement to every single person except their ancient pal about whom they will hear no wrong? Check. 4) Die tragically in part due to different beliefs? Check. 5) One super-faithful and relatively introverted and one super-faithless and a hedonistic extrovert? Check.
So basically I was doomed. XD
Thank you very much hon <3. I think people over-simplify saying autistic people are like children - something that still simplifies without getting it quite so wrong would be to say that they're like regular people with the *emotional* reasoning of a child. With my mild form I'm mostly functional but I do still have sobbing fits or angry fits in response to certain triggers - I find the easiest way to describe it to people is "Think of how you feel when you hear nails on a chalkboard. Multiply it by ten." ^^
With Lost Souls I came to it after the shine had worn off Anne Rice, so it was nice to see someone go YES THERE IS ACTUAL SEX IN THIS ONE AND NOT JUST HIDING FROM ANY POSSIBILITY OF SEX DESPITE TALKING ABOUT IT ALL THE TIME, but it's definitely less my thing as I'm older. Ghost and Steve are lovely together and Ghost is just one of my favourite characters going in general.
Just got one last Balthazar/Castiel repost due (how appropriate!) and I'm finished, but reformatting it's a swine given the original post was about 40% italics ;).
