#i find it hard to believe #that dean winchester #who is always three steps ahead of the bad guys #and can’t look at a game plan without giving his two cents #and is just overall a brilliant and cunning strategist #always legitimately loses rock paper scissors #by always choosing scissors #which leads me to believe that he lets sam win #because sam is his baby brother #and whether it’s giving up the good cereal even if there isn’t much left #or being the one to deal with awkward situations #he’s going to take it upon himself to do the dirty work so sam doesn’t have to #it doesn’t matter if they’re five and nine or twenty five and twenty nine #except he doesn’t want to look all gushy and sentimental #because no chick flick moments #so he plays dumb and always picks scissors #because sam KNOWS he’ll always pick scissors #even if it means doing something he doesn’t want to #just to see the smile on sam’s face #and to make sure his baby brother isn’t doing something he doesn’t want to do
A/N: Just some random Dean Christmas headcanons I thought of. How Dean would be if, ya know, the world like wasn’t constantly ending. Maybe had a little family living with him and Sam at the Bunker. They just kinda came out one day and I wasn’t ever going to post but as usual @impala-dreamer said I had to. Hope you like!

Goes out by himself every year and buys a special ornament for each family member. It soon becomes everyone’s favorite tradition.
Bobby, Charlie, John, Ellen and Jo, Kevin, Eileen, Crowley, Benny and even Jess each have an ornament. Every year they’re the last to be put on the tree. Someday, when there are kids at the Bunker to they love to hear stories about each one. Sam and Dean take turns telling them.
OBSESSED with after Christmas decoration sales. Giant light up snowman for 70% off? YES. PLEASE.
Every year - every. single. year. - Dean gets Sam skin mags and shaving cream. Sam gets him motor oil and candy. They are wrapped in brown paper bags and newspaper.
They go and buy toys every year for Toys for Tots or an angel tree. Because Dean knows what it’s like to not get gifts when you’re a kid. He and Sam go 1000% overboard. It takes hours because they end up having so much fun picking out toys.
This is when Dean flexes his cooking muscles. He makes everything. EVERYTHING. He plans for days. You get to help shop, and maybe do some prep. Sam is told to stay out of the way. You all eat like kings for days after because he cooks so much.
A Christmas Story is considered the highest of cinematic achievements. Sam is still bitter about when Dean dared him to stick his tongue to a pole when they were little.
Once there are kids you have to get him to stop running around the Bunker yelling “Shitter’s full!”
There’s a fight every year about if Die Hard is a Christmas movie or not.
“Dean. We don’t need 3 kinds of potatoes.” “I’m not getting rid of any Sam. Shut up.”
Spiked everything. Dean doesn’t need a reason to drink, but hey why not be festive?
Sam’s not allowed to make the eggnog.
Every year he asks Cas to sit on top of the tree. It’s not funny to anyone but him. Nobody laughs. He still does it every year.
He buys fudge every year and laughs about “that one time they were almost ritualistically sacrificed at Christmas.”
And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly. But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying,
