They hold out the cigarette to you, their gaze never leaving yours. Your fingers brush theirs as you take it, a shock of warmth against your skin. They watch, intent and focused, as you raise it to your lips. Close your mouth around it.
You can still feel their eyes on you as you tilt your head back, take a long drag. Warmth suffuses your mouth, cascading down your throat; you hold it there for a moment, lungs aching beneath broken ribs, before breathing out. The smoke obscures the sky above, stars replaced with swirling grey, and when you look back, Nash is still watching you.
For once, they don't look away.

Eddie asking himself how could Buck be the same after the lightning strike and wondering if that means they lost the something that they had before. Telling Buck "Experiences like this, they change us. So what changed in you?" during the cemetery scene knowing full well that what changed for him when he died was that he realized he was in love with Buck, but that wasn't what changed for Buck. After being told by Buck that he feels like Natalia truly sees him. Eddie's death pushing him towards Buck and Buck's death being the reason why Eddie decided to pull away, because Buck didn't find it out and he thought it meant he didn't feel the same. I'm unwell.

So just found a major Destiel parallel that kinda blew my mind
Besides Cas do you know who also says "I know what I want... but I can't have it" to Dean Winchester, also talking about how they want Dean in a romantic way?
Lisa Braeden!
In 6x04 Dean tells her "ask for something" and she says she can't ask for something because she already knows Dean can't give her what she wants - in her case, what she wants is for him to stop hunting to stay with her. But Sam is back and his mind is fucked so she already knows Dean will never be able to give her that. And Dean also knows that.
So when Cas says he already knows he can't have what he wants it's a huge parallel to Dean once again losing someone he loves for 'being unable' to give them what they need and want. But, in Castiel's case, the one thing he is asking for is to be loved back in a romantic way.
Maybe canon Dean never considered the possibility that Cas could ever love him in that way. Or maybe it wasn't the first time Dean has thought about it (about "experiencing new things... people... in different ways or maybe for the first time ever") but always thought he couldn't give Cas what he needed and wanted: someone soft, someone kind, and most of all is worthy™️ - all things I'm sure Dean Winchester doesn't think he is
But then Cas tells him that all he wants is to be loved, nothing else. it's that easy, that simple. Point A to point B. And, as if it wasn't enough, he reveals that he does think Dean is soft, and kind, and the Worthiest of The Worthy.
Now consider: if the 'ask' is so small and so easy, maybe Dean would be able to give that to Cas after all if he had time.
Hence Dean's little desperate "don't do this"
Because it's a 'not now', 'not like this'. Don't do this - don't tell me it's that simple when you're about to leave forever.
Anyway how the hell did we miss this parallel?
