LOOK & FEEL

FASHION Lumberjack Aesthetic™ — he's almost never seen without plaid and denim on his person and his boots have probably seen better days but they're functional. He's usually got a light scruff, unless he's really gone on a bender and hasn't shaved for a few days. He keeps his hair short along the back and sides, gels the front up.

DEMEANOR He can be fairly rigid and intimidating when he really wants to be, but he usually tries to present a laid back, joking attitude to cover up the massive amount of stress he's actually dealing with.

SOUND Midwestern accent (he drops Gs and says ain't a lot), which comes out stronger when he's drunk or around other people who have strong accents.

SCENT Musky, usually smells like whiskey and the outdoors. He probably uses aftershave / deodorant that also has an outdoorsy scent. He's very much a FOR MEN kind of consumer when it comes to personal hygiene, except when he's stealing Sam's fancy shampoo.

MENTAL INFORMATION Dean has a lot of baggage and trauma deeply compartmentalized in his brainspace, especially regarding his time in Hell, and in general regarding all the crazy shit he's seen and done on the job. He's killed a lot of people, sacrificed himself, had to make a lot of hard decisions that weren't necessarily favorable. And some things you just can't unsee.

PERMISSIONS

BACKTAGGING
i work full time, so i tend to tag in the evenings and some weekends, but i can be pretty slow. texts threads are naturally easier for me to hit back quickly — but i will always backtag if you're still up for it!

THREADJACKING
if a post warrants it & all parties concerned are okay with it!

FOURTHWALLING
supernatural has canonically broken the fourth wall multiple times so, i mean, go for it. dean is aware of the idea of him and sam being "characters" from the supernatural books, and there was the episode where they had to pretend to film an episode and be "jensen" and "jared" so it wouldn't be a huge leap, he'd just be kind of annoyed by it. he'll also do his best not to fourthwall others — he has knowledge of most pop culture media but he'd never go as far as telling someone they aren't real.

ALTERNATE UNIVERSES
i am an au whore. please give them to me. spn already has plenty of aus to work with, too, so like. let's do it. (my personal favorite being smith & wesson.)

PHYSICAL INTIMACY
dean's no stranger to physical intimacy and he obviously enjoys sex (he's a "straight" white male), but he can be closed off in some situations. hugging is a little weird for him if he's not super close to someone; kissing, however, he's more than open to (with women; he'll need to work up to men). that said, i'd love for him to uncomfortably confront his sexuality re: his attraction to dudes. and just for future reference, you can find a list of kinks here.

PHYSICAL VIOLENCE/INJURY
hell yeah. dean's no stranger to violence; oftentimes he picks fights on purpose and he's had his ass kicked numerous times but he's very much the "that all you got?" type of guy. injury is extremely common in his line of work, so he's generally prepared for that as well.

DEATH
what's another death to a winchester? dm me to discuss specifics.

MAGIC/TELEPATHY
dean kind of hates magic, but that don't mean it don't work on him. you can definitely try it. the only thing he's immune to is demon possession (thanks anti-possession tattoo). be warned, though, most telepaths are not going to like what they find in dean's head (can we say trauma, kids!).

WARNINGS
swearing, violent behavior, dad jokes, mentions of suicidal ideation, depression, casual alcoholism, self-hatred, an extreme guilt complex, an intensely codependent relationship with his brother, and probably some undiagnosed ptsd.

GENERAL PREFERENCES

✔ crosscanon ships: feel free to pm me or hit me up on plurk (

poohsticks ) if you'd like to discuss anything crosscanon. i'm usually open to most ships.
