I’ve been spending the last eight months thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end, but on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again. (human calthazar au)
Reblogging again because post-Destiel Calthazar AUs for the win.
Consider Balthazar:
- complimenting Cass’ foresight on living in motels because you can leave quickly anytime
- and also offering to help him find a secure apartment when he’s ready
- cooking for Cass/pre-cutting food and ingredients so Cass doesn’t have to handle knives so much
- covering for Cass at other people’s homes when questions get too personal/judgemental or when there are certain rooms he can’t go into
- asking what Cass likes in bed and laughing with him when Cass says he has no fucking clue, he just knows what he absolutely cannot stand anymore
- not threatening grievous bodily harm against Dean “if he ever comes around” cause Cass is DONE with that hypermasculine horseshit
- post-nightmare/flashback soothing and cuddles as necessary
- one million rewatches of Cosmos for distraction
- “Are you all right?”
Lord Almightly how I could go on.
Basically just consider Balthazar being the anti-Dean because that’s what he WAS in canon it just WASN’T SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD THING L M F A O(no subject)

ok but which person in your otp orders the venti soy gluten free mocha latte with extra foam from starbucks and which one makes a pot of black coffee and just puts a straw in it
The first one is Cass pretending to be haute cuisine snob!Balthazar.
The second one is Cass when he’s REALLY tired.
Both are Cass before Balthazar started making the coffee.

I love Calthazar + cooking, with each other, for each other, teaching each other. It can fit any universe and any mood. Truly, the perfect genre.
One of my all time favourites is human!au haute cuisine snob Balthazar + cynical, hungry Cass:
1.
“See, you hollow out the middle here and put the dry ingredients inside - but separate - then whisk it all together, moving slowly from the outside inwards,” says Balthazar happily.
“Does it have to be that tedious?” Cass frowns.
“The result will be well worth it!” Balthazar insists.
Cass just gives him a Look…
…and sloooowly pulls out his blender.
Balthazar stiffens in horror.
“You wouldn’t dare.”
2.
“So sorry to keep you waiting, darling, but I’ve finally narrowed it down to my top four.” Balthazar sets the menus down excitedly. “Give me your choice and I’ll ring them up.”
Cass squints at the glossy covers.
“…What are these?”
“The best bakeries in the city, naturally. Take your pick, and I’ll show you the most finely crafted cake you’ve ever seen in your life!”
“Balthazar, I am not ordering a cake from a shop whose name I can’t even decipher. This looks like Elvish, or some kind of magic spell.”
“It’s just French. Boulangerie–“
“Enough of your hocus-pocus and show me a real bakery.”
3.
Cass brings a sick Balthazar some soup. Balthazar sniffs it delicately.
“Ah, a heady, full-bodied Lipton’s Instant. 2014, if I’m not mistaken. Good year, a very good year.”
“It’s midnight, Balthazar. Your favourite delis are closed.”
4.
“Now, you need to keep a bit of an eye on it as it bakes. Just a quick peek in the oven every five minutes or so, then every two minutes once the top starts to darken. You’ll know it’s done when you’ve got that lovely, even brown coating.”
“Thanks. And how long do I microwave it for?”
He can hear Balthazar shudder on the other end of the phone.
5.
“All right, how about we start with the vegetables?”
“No.”
“No…vegetables?”
“No cooking,” Cass says tiredly. “I changed my mind. I just want a burger.”
“Ah, certainly. Just relax, then, and I’ll–”
“I’m ordering burgers, Balthazar. Real burgers. Are you in or out?”
“…ah. Right.” Balthazar waves his hands. “I’m in, I’m in, of course. You call and I’ll pick them up.”
“Why? Let’s just have them delivered.”
“Cassie, please, I need to be involved somehow, or it’s bad for my heart.”
No matter what, of course, Balthazar eats it all (even the burgers).
“Acceptable?” Cass can’t help but smirk a little proudly.
“Well, I’ll live.” Balthazar answers lovingly.(no subject)

Balthazar arrives to help bake cupcakes for Hannah’s birthday, sees Cass with a big bowl of icing already whipped up.
“You started without me!” he mock chides.
And Cass is just like

Later that night, Cass plunks himself down with his laptop like,
“If you can make a mug cupcake in the microwave, there must be a way to bake a real tray.”
Balthazar chuckles. “If you can manage it, you’ll be famous.”
Then he wakes up at like 4am to a cold bed and the colder glare of the laptop screen. He just sort of blinks, stunned.
“Are you still on the microwave cupcake tray?”
“Yes.”
“…Cassie, it’s been eight hours.”
“I know so much about microwaves now,” Cass murmurs blearily. “I’m about to crack the secret, I know it.”
Balthazar gapes at him.
“But it doesn’t take this long to BAKE a tray of cupcakes!” he cries.
“It’s that thing…” Cass explains, loosely waving one hand. “An investment towards future time saved.”
Balthazar groans and burrows himself about 50,000 feet into the mattress, just trying to get back to sleep.
