nice pair of characters who trust each other more than anyone else in the whole entire world it would sure be a shame if one of them betrayed that trust for the sake of trying to keep the other alive. it would sure be a shame to love someone so much you destroy them

the fact that eric kripke isn't even christian really adds something to the way christianity is depicted on supernatural. because its really not about being christian at all, but about living in america, a country dominated by christianity, and having to decide for yourself how to handle that. faith is huge in supernatural, and the mythology of the show is very bible-centric, but notably, christ is never there. even sam, who starts out revering the angels, who once said he prays every night, doesn't actually call himself a christian or imply that he believes in jesus--the show is steeped in christianity and biblical lore and yet neither sam nor dean are christians. in fact, over and over again the church itself is depicted as a haunted house that sam and dean will only ever enter as strangers, as outsiders. priests, preachers, faith healers, chapels, crypts, etc. are all just iconography that create an intense sense of unease that sam and dean respond to instantly. as a jew, its very relatable. an essential part of living in america when you're not christian is that exact sense of unease, of knowing that the culture of your country has ensured that you'll get knocked over by christianity no matter where you go, that you'll see hundreds of people truly believing they're good people while doing awful things in the name of their god, and you have no choice but to confront that. kripke gets it

The voice in your head telling you the dog-motif is overdone is wrong. Do not listen to it. Give them a muzzle. Give them a choker or a collar. Chain them to a fence. Give them sharp canines. Give them pavlovian responses. Give them puppy dog eyes. Put them in a cage. Give them themes of obedience, loyalty and love intertwined unhealthy. Give them attachment issues. Make them bite. Give them themes of taming, domestication and ferality. Give them actual, literal, rabies. Kick them while they're down. Microchip them. Scratch their hair behind their ear. Call them a good boy/good girl/etc. and watch them perk up in response. Put them in a shock collar. Give them a metaphorical treat to reward good behaviour. Make them beg for scrapes of affection.

The possibilities are endless.

Arthur: So you have magic?

Merlin: Uh… yeah?

Arthur: for how long?

Merlin: Since birth.

Arthur: And you’re a dragon lord?

Merlin: Yeah my father was and it gets passed down.

Arthur: Sounds like royalty.

Merlin: No? I don’t think so.

Arthur: Yes it is, that means you’re a noble, a lord. We can get married now.

Merlin: WHAT???
