Title: take care of you
Artist: badbastion
Characters: Sam&Dean, gen
Spoilers: none. Description is possibly not canon.
Rating: R
Content: blood and injuries, h/c
Summary: After a run-in with a particular nasty monster, Dean patches Sam up
Misc: Nothing like a bit of hurt/comfort to cheer you up. Thanks for chatting with me in the livestream last night, and thank you guys so much for the kind comments on my last post. I will answer you with all the hugs in the world <3






The decision by panelists is that the Winchesters went in, expecting a Wendigo. No big deal, right? What they got was the Big Daddy Wendigo, the Alpha Wendigo.

Lucky Dean's still a bit of a firebug. Lucky Sam can still take being thrown against (and up into) a few trees.

I totally love the all of the emotion in this picture. Sam's face as Dean patches him up, letting his big brother, the man he loves take care of him and heal him. Dean's loving approach to patching Sam up, his hands around him as he holds Sam tight to his body. Just so much love and lust conveyed in this single act of caring and being saved.

This inspires a fic in me, I had the idea when I saw it this morning, a short fic, very emotional and loving but hurt!comfort non the less.

You are wonderful with the plaid and of course everything else is just beautiful.

Hugs

Thank you doll! I love your comments :) It is such an intimate4 thing, t have access to another's injured body, and that's always something I loved about SPN. Wound tending is one of my favorite things EvER.

I would love to read it if you write it! hurt/comfort is usually emotional and loving :)

Thanks <3

[dolnmoon.livejournal.com]

I want to write it and I will. Firstly I got my assignment from Sammessiah and since I'm fic and its 500+ words in a little under a month, I must get started.. Now to figure out how to use my prompt(s). Argh.

Hope your feeling better.

Ouch! I'm loving Sam's midsection here.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Jared's body gives me so much anatomy practice, haha.

[verucasalt123.livejournal.com]

Love how you can see their emotions so clearly!! Beautiful.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

[cillab42.livejournal.com]

I love the concern on Dean's face, and oh Sam's chest pain.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Haha, you can love both; I often love their hands and faces best when they're bloody :)

[de-nugis.livejournal.com]

It certainly cheers me up! I especially appreciate Sam's black eye and woozy expression, and the way Dean is gripping the needle in his teeth. And, of course, the Winchester painkiller flask, which may account for some of the aforementioned woozy expression.

I hope today is a better day. Continuing to send good thoughts in your general direction.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thanks again for the good thoughts :)

I'm glad you like it! h/c is a thing I love dearly; it's a trust thing, and an emotional thing, and an "I like to see people bloody and hurt" thing. It's kind of cathartic, yeah?

And I love Winchester brand painkiller :)

[equally-dour.livejournal.com]

Hurt Sam, mmmm! :D

That's lovely!

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

noooo! lol

thanks :)

Bloody teeth. BLOODY GODDAMN TEETH. And by that I mean BLOODY TEETH. You rock.

Other things I love, once I'm able to get past Sam's teeth: plaid, claw marks, the fact that if Dean were to face him, all of this bandaging up would probably go more smoothly, only he probably can't stand the thought of not having Sam presses all up against him, and the few seconds that happen after this picture, when unanimously we decided that there shall be neck kisses.

But really, bloody teeth. And thus we come full circle. And you still rock. Thanks so much, bas! ♥!

p.s. did you get my email? No need to reply. Just checking.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Aghhhh, bloody teeth :D Sam and his bloody teeth slay me, as you know! I have looked forward to a reason to draw them for some time now, and I look forward to drawing them again!

Oh the plaid. It's so hard to not draw it. It adds this little bit of texture to pictures with these two, and I wonder if that's why they use it so much on the show? To add a little something to the plain, manly, dark colors the guys wear, haha.

Ah yes, the moment later :D I just love thikning about that part!

Thank you :)

(ps yes! thank you :))

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

A lovely bit of hurt/comfort ♥

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

:) Thank you!

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Oh I love this!! That's one of my fav hurt/comfort poses - Sam leaning agains Dean's chest. I love Sam's expression. Poor boys.

Thanks so much for sharing honey. You spoil us! <333

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It is a really close, intimate pose, also useful for holding up a slumping body :)

[quickreaver.livejournal.com]

Aw, I missed your Livestream, but LOOKIT THE GLORIOUS H/C THAT CAME FROM IT! I hope you're feeling better, sunshine.

What delicious injury you've wrought! Ouch, damn, yum! I love the needle in Dean's teeth and the way blood is leeching through the hanky. Exquisite details. You win.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you <3

Ohhh, I love injured men. It's always been a kink, and with SPN, I get almost all I neeeed. Blood leaking through dressing is also a fave of mine. So I totally indulged myself here, haha. I'm so glad you like it!

[deansdirtybb.livejournal.com]

So glad I got to see this one getting finsihed up...and it was a really nice chat in LS :)

Dean's hands! and the claw marks....and Dean holding Sammy against him...This one totally smells like blood and alcohol and sweat, I just know it. Beautiful job, sweetie!

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you were there! It was quite a different night :)

Ahh, I love that you smell it, that's awesome. Thank you! <3

[helena-s-renn.livejournal.com]

yeah, like that isn't pushing all sorts of buttons. bloody fingernails, too, besides the clawmarks and teeth. love the needle in dean's teeth. and la-la-love the little bit of chest hair for sam. and those bow legs spread around him.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

SO MANY BUTTONS FOR ME, haha. Glad it hits yours too ;) Totally self-indulgent h/c. Next time I might actually draw them making the sutures!

Thank you!

Oh god Yes please! *personal headcanon alert!*
This... From my & christian_howe's RPG:
(Warning ahead for wincest: reference to <18)

There was a longer scar running in an arc just under Sam's hip. Dean well remembered as he'd been the one to stitch it, somewhere around Sam's eighteenth birthday. Hitching upwards, he strained to kiss the thin line of raised skin, now silvery-white. At the time, he'd felt every prick of the needle as if it was piercing him instead. Despite his brother bleeding, in pain, their Dad stalking around in the background with a bottle and nothing but glares for either of them, Dean had been hard, so hard at having his hands on Sam for the first time in, by then, almost three years. Sam's slashed jeans and underwear had been off – hell, they'd had to peel them off that gusher of a wound – and Dean had had to pretend, for both of their sakes, that the lump under the towel covering Sam's crotch was only thanks to leftover adrenaline from the hunt. If their Dad hadn't been there, he was sure he'd have jumped Sam then... And he wished it were so. They had lost a lot of years, something most hunters had in short supply.

"Ah, Sam... It was so stupid. I thought I was doing the right thing. You know. It turned out for shit. I mean, you got a college education and we're still alive but... We spent the time alone in our own heads, loving and missing and wanting each other. So many years. I'm sorry." Dean's hand clenched convulsively into Sam's thigh muscle, and he curled his body in on itself. "I know it's water under the bridge now. But, can you forgive me?"

"Dean..." Sam's body was vibrating with part post-orgasmic haze, part emotional bliss. Having Dean in his lap, utterly relaxed and with his defenses down, made his heart throb with rapture. As much as he knew that his brother's love was sincere, Sam was only too aware that their hunters' life style wouldn't grant them many moments like this, and he intended to treasure every sub-sub-second of it.

Dean began to kiss his belly and hips, licking at one of Sam's more prominent scars. Sam shivered, remembering how Dean had stitched him up, the pain and – desire. Every time Dean had threaded the needle though his skin, Sam had perceived it as piercing his heart. It had hurt so much, yet Sam had welcomed it as the only physical closeness he and his brother were ever permitted to share. It had been one of the most intimate moments of their lives, and Dean making love to the old scar – it was the only way for Sam to describe what Dean was doing – moved him more than he could have imagined.


I second your self-prompt!!!
(Hope that didn't squick)

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Oooooh, very nice! I can't imagine trying to do a good job of sutures with John hovering. Oh, and no worries, no squicks here!

[sleepypercy.livejournal.com]

Oh man, they look amazing! Jeez, Sam sure looks out of it, poor guy. And your hands are always so amazing - Dean's bloody fingertips just look fantastic.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! <3 I'm so glad you like it. I really love drawing bloody fingers.

[christian-howe.livejournal.com]

Aw, I can never get enough of your h/c art! :-D

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

:) thank you!

[monicawoe.livejournal.com]

I want to put ice on Sam's eye! Owie. Good thing Dean is patching him up.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Ha, poor guy, I beat him all to hell.

[jespretender.livejournal.com]

You tease us with the small preview clip, we click on it and the anticipation builds. Then, Wow... another beautiful picture.

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

:D Thank you!

[sammichgirl]

I am always afraid to look at art that isn't happy or sexy schmoop or hot angst because of the pain it can trigger mentally for me, but maybe it was watching it come to life that made a difference.

The care and love between them shines, and it's tender and gentle and very soothing. The innate trust they have in each other, the way Sam just melts into Dean, and Dean's strong and firm caring hold, it's like the hurt just drifts off.

Thanks for sharing another fantastic piece with us!

[dont-hate-me01.livejournal.com]

Love the little details, like the blood under Dean's nails. You've got such a eye for detail. :-)

[thisweshallsee.livejournal.com]

HOLY FREAKIN' YES!!! <3<3<3<3<3 Gah, so much love for this. The bruises, and the expression on Sam's face and his limp body being held securely in Dean's arms, and the chest *coughs, ehem* and the needle in Dean's teeth, and the MOLE ON SAM'S NECK, and Sam's mouth and... yes. XD

[blackrabbit42.livejournal.com]

You had me at the needle.

Swoons.

:)

take care of you [Sam & Dean, gen, R]

[koshweasley.livejournal.com]

This is stunning. Patching Sammy up between his legs. And I love the darkness of this. Gorgeous.
