Part Six of Become the Beast (Cadbury).
Summary: Sam learns that the dormitory he was meant to stay in has been closed because it’s being haunted by a poltergeist. Dealing with it proves to be a struggle, especially when he’s caught by campus security guard Arthur King and locked inside the dormitory. Now they have to work together to purify the dormitory, but there are a lot of floors and the poltergeist is very determined not to let them win.
The first official crossover in the series crosses Supernatural and Merlin (BBC).
I got quite a lot of reviews about people freaking out over the ending of Of Music and Memories and I may have feared for my life just a little bit (I’m looking at you, @altyex), so here’s the first chapter of the next fic in the series. We’re back at Stanford now, but don’t worry, we’ll see SaMatt again.

Sastiel Love Week Day II AUs (Centaur Sam)
(Hi there!, I was going to continue posting each day and try to stick to the themes even after Sastiel Love Week ends because I started kind of late! I hope that’s okay with you! 💙)
Castiel walked through the woods, these trails were popular but not at this time in late fall. It got too cold and most people tended to avoid these rural trails.
But Castiel didn’t mind, he was of course, here to see Sam. Today was the Spring Equinox
Sam was a centaur that lived and protected these woods.
Castiel had seen him one evening when he was walking through the trail. However he could only appear at certain times of the year, during either a solstice or an equinox.
Most people believed this area to either haunted or blessed, but no one really knew what lay dormant here but Castiel was lucky enough to have met Sam and he had been drawn to him.
Castiel walked through the underbrush and into the clearing, water bubbled at a small spring, frost had settled in the early morning and it dusted the forest beautifully. Castiel watched the sunrise on the horizon, cresting perfectly and shining beautifully across the sky.
From the edge of the treeline Sam emerged, his movements were so surreal. Even though Castiel had seen him so many times he was shocked every time. Sam was much taller than he was, his lower half was that of a moose and he had brilliant large antlers. Above his waist he was human, his hair was long and around his ears was a wreath of dark green ferns.
Castiel waved and Sam smiled brightly as he trotted forward to Castiel and he kneeled and sat down in the grass so they were almost at eye level with one another. Castiel’s heart glowed, and gave Sam a fierce hug, which the centaur gladly returned. Castiel sat in the wet grass next to Sam.
How are you?, Sam’s voice hummed quietly in his head, Castiel was still stunned when they communicate telepathically.
I’m well Sam, it’s nice to see you again, Castiel replied back.
Sam nodded, his hazel eyes glowed softly in the early morning and his smiled.
Sam told Castiel stories of the woods and all the things he’s seen and Castiel told Sam about his normal mortal life. Sam hung onto every word as he listened to Castiel in his own head.
The entire day was the most peaceful silence with nothing but the sounds the woods living around them before the moon appeared on the horizon and Sam stood and embraced Castiel once more. Castiel couldn’t hide the tears clouding his eyes as he hugged Sam goodbye.
Sam stood up, now towering above Castiel, trotting back into the woods he turned towards Castiel and smiled before he faded into the night.
Castiel held the necklace tightly around his neck, it was a leaf from Sam’s wreath of flowers that never rotted or needed to be taken care of, his only reminder of Sam until the next solstice in the winter.
OMG THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!! I LOVE MOOSE CENTAUR SAM!!! I wanna take him home with me….hmmm..I don’t think he’d fit in my condo…oh well I’d figure it out!
And that works fine, wonderful Sastiel Anon!!! I think an extension of Sastiel Love week sounds FANTABULOUS!!!

Chapter Nine: The Situation Room
When they reached the Situation Room, Arthur Ketch was waiting for them.
In Dean’s defense, he tried to keep his dislike of the man off of his face. He was a talented National Security Advisor, but in the few interactions Dean had had with him, he’d been incredibly condescending.
“Thank you, Ms. McLeod,” he said crisply. Then, turning to Dean, “Agent Winchester.”
Things had to be bad for Rowena to pat his shoulder as she turned away. Dean tried not to make his swallow so obvious as he followed Ketch into the room. It looked pretty much like it did in the movies. Were the darkened lights for the ambiance or for the projector?
Once he and Ketch got settled, they didn’t have much time before Roman walked through the door and everyone stood. To Roman’s credit, he had least had the grace to look a little disconcerted at such a welcome. It appeared that there were still things that took some time to get used to.
“Thank you. Mr. Ketch, proceed.”
Dean’s heart settled somewhere around his naval. He wasn’t sure he’d be able to listen to this.
“We received this video this morning.”
Ketch nodded to someone in the back, who clicked play. Dean had to grip the side of the table until his knuckles turned white in order to avoid shouting out loud when Jack’s face came into view.
He didn’t look hurt, but it didn’t feel like much of an upside. His eyes flickered nervously between the camera and what Dean assumed was the monster behind it. He looked far younger on the screen than he had in years.
“Tell them.”
If Dean had been expecting some sort of Hollywood villain drawl, something that sounded chilling and evil, he was disappointed. The man sounded like just that—a man. Dean closed his eyes as Jack responded.
“I’m not hurt.”
Dean listened hard for some kind of catch in his voice, a noise that would alert him to some hidden hurt to prove the sentence a lie, but it seemed like he was telling the truth.
“Go on.”
“And I’m gonna stay that way.”
At that, Jack’s eyes filled with tears. Despite himself, Dean’s did too out of sympathy and fear for the kid.
“For how long, Jack?”

Summary:Five years ago, an accident happened that changed the course of Sam Winchester’s life – and in turn, the life of his brother, Dean, and the Winchester family. Dean wasn’t sure how to deal with the “after,” so he distanced himself from his brother at a time when Sam needed him the most. Now, at Sam’s invitation, Dean has decided to visit him in Boston, where he’s been living on his own. He expects his brother to be struggling, but is surprised to learn that he’s not only surviving, but thriving. Sam has two jobs, graduate school, and amazing friends – including an attractive interpreter named Cas – and although Dean has had some success in his chosen career, he longs for the true happiness Sam has. When Dean seeks Cas’ help to reconnect with his brother, Cas eventually agrees but Dean finds that his usual way of dealing with things won’t work with the captivating man who is firmly in Sam’s corner, and he will have to learn much more than a new language. Dean’s journey forces all three men to confront themselves, and eventually teaches them about assumptions, friendship, and love.
Told from three perspectives, this is a story about love, acceptance, and learning what it truly means to listen.

MDMA Makes Octopuses Want to Mingle, Too
I didn’t write for a while, but this article needed to be shared 🙂
sidenote: MDMA, the active principle in ecstasy, is a drug well known for boosting emotional empathy and prosocial behaviour in humans (and also to boost energy).
In short, an octopus researcher at the University of Chicago gave some MDMA to a bunch of octopuses and witnessed that the effects were similar to the ones in human. That is, the octopuses showed prosocial behaviours that go against their nature (indeed, octopuses are usually asocial/like to be alone, except when they are trying to mate).
This is interesting not only because these octopuses don’t normally behave this way, but also because the last common ancestor we shared was probably some wormlike thing between 500 and 750 million years ago […]
These findings might tell us a lot about how “ancient neurotransmitter systems are shared across vertebrate and invertebrate species.”
How fascinating !
