You think when Sam and Darlin’ were first dating, Sam would practically check Darlin’ for cuts or bruises every time he saw them? Cause I think about that a lot.
Just imagine Sam pulling Darlin’ aside to quickly check on them because he saw a bruise peeking out from under their shirt, which ends up in Sam healing them.
Imagine how the pack gossips about the two of them, always disappearing together, which usually ends up in Sam being tired afterwards.
Imagine how awkward David felt having to schedule a meeting with Darlin’, just to tell them they need to stop sneaking around with Sam during pack parties.
Imagine Darlin’ struggling to convince David that they aren’t fooling around, it’s just Darin’ getting into fights again, and Sam healing them.
Imagine Sam’s face as Darlin’ tells him, the two of them completely dumbfounded how the whole pack thought they were sneaking off to have sex.
Imagine the next time they have a pack party, Sam pulling Darlin’ into the middle of the room and loudly scolding them for the small scrape they had on their arm, and how he can’t always heal them.
Imagine the pieces slowly falling into place for the pack. It would be odd for only Sam to be tired after, and now that they think about it, Darlin’ stopped limping or rubbing sore spots after Sam pulled them aside, and they really weren’t gone for that long…
Anyways that’s my thoughts for today 🫡
😋😋
I headcanon Sam as having the physical appearance of a man who should be a werewolf.
very rugged, hairy, very dark and strong features but which just stand out even more against his pale skin, and the whole country, southern aesthetic just adds to it.

More darlin and angel bff doodles weeeeee, i love their friendship a bit too much!! Beware darlin, the pack alpha might get jealous!

An important PSA to remember!
[ID in Alt]
[In no particular order]
✩ Sam has stretch marks on his hips and across his back from growing so fast after leaving Mont Blanc
✩ Darlin has a high pain tolerance so they literally don’t realize when they’re seriously injured sometimes
✩ Sam has a lot of faded scars on his hands
✩ Sam is the oldest brother, Darlin is a middle child - they both had to leave their younger siblings behind and still feel bad about it
✩ The younger pack members think Sam is the absolute coolest even though they don’t get to see him very often
✩ Sam still has David’s name saved as Mr. Shaw in his phone
✩ Since Sam convinced Darlin to start eating actual food they are BUILT - their muscles aren’t super lean and defined anymore, but they’re noticeably stronger
✩ Occasionally when they’re stressed Darlin will shift and lay directly on top of Sam like a wolf-shaped weighted blanket
✩ Sam hates the question “are you a tea or coffee person?” because people rarely accept his answer of “both”
✩ Darlin was very uneasy about any kind of physical touch after Quinn, especially skin-to-skin, so they almost exclusively wore clothes that covered their entire body for about a year - they feel safe enough to wear tank tops and shorts now
✩ Darlin likes holding both sides of Sam’s face when they kiss
✩ Sam pretends to be more oblivious to modern media than he really is
✩ Before turning, Sam needed glasses - for a while afterwards he would still wear them out of habit
✩When shifted, Darlin is one of the biggest wolves in the pack
✩ When he was younger, Sam used to fight in shady arenas for some quick cash
✩ Darlin knows how to play bass
✩ Sam shaved his head after leaving Mont Blanc and after turning as his way of “starting his new life” - he keeps it fairly long now but makes an effort to keep it trimmed and maintained
✩ Darlin has convinced Sam to paint his nails with them at least once
✩ Sam looks like his dad but he has his mom’s eyes and her smile
✩ Sam dances like a tipsy suburban dad at a backyard barbecue
✩ Darlin has a habit of glaring like they’re about to murder the next person who enters their line of sight when they’re actually just thinking about what they want for dinner
✩ Sam was raised on a ranch so he knows how to ride horses, herd cattle, etc.

Sam: Vincent [cowboy sigh], you're my family, and I love you. So please don't take this the wrong way but four years ago when he was still around you were just as much as a pain in the ass to be around most of the time.”
Vincent:
i edited the summit
tw: character death, alexis
I feel like Sam wouldn't wipe away Darlin's tears.
I fully believe that he believes that wiping away a person's tears is the same this as a shh or don't cry, and he hates both of them, so the only way he'd wipe Darlin's tears is if he could see them struggling to open their eyes or smth
But I really just can't see him doing that
A thought I just had: William dies, Alexis invokes Sam, and tries to stage a coupe against Vincent, driving him and those who support him, including Porter, Fred, and Bright, out of Wonder World.
This basically causes a war, Alexis and her supporters versus Vincent, Darlin’, Porter, and the entire Shaw Pack.
During the final battle, Darlin’ is fighting Sam and trying to reach him through the invocation. When they start to quietly sing they and Sam’s song, they start to see him trying to fight back against the invocation.
Asher, Porter, Fred, and Bright hold Sam back as both Vincent and Darlin’ go up against Alexis.
Quotes:
Porter to Alexis: “You can trance him, invoke him, whatever you like. But that will never, ever, make him love you.”
David to Vincent: “Vampire or not, Sam is a member of our pack. And you are our friend. We will help you however we can, I swear it.”
Darlin’ singing to Sam: “Been the kind of guy girls’ mommas don’t like, running with the wrong crowd most of my life. ‘Cause I’ve been wrong about a million time but I’ve got one thing right…”
“You.”
