Do you think Jensen is uncomfortable being asked about Destiel?
yes but i don't think it's because the concept of destiel makes him uncomfortable at this point. i think it's because every single time he speaks about destiel, no matter what he says, a whole bunch of people are upset in a whole bunch of different directions. he says cas was dean's best friend and well that just means he's homophobic because obviously cas was more than that, but also how dare he forget about sam. he says dean was thinking that he should've said i love you too and well he obviously meant it platonically and how dare anyone think otherwise but also he stuttered when he said it so he was trying to hold back slurs. he says cas's confession testament isn't something that needs to be resolved which obviously means they will never ever address it despite the 6000 other things he's said about wanting to give it the weight it deserves when dean and cas reunite. jensen hates gay people and specifically he wants to spit in hellers faces but also how dare he say things that legitimize destiel he's a monster and this is why we love jared.

i can't stop thinking about the first episode of season 6, when sam tries to convince dean to come with him, to come back to hunting. he says "it's just better with you around, that's all." it's an interesting line because sam is soulless, obviously. and even though he doesn't understand the details yet, he knows something's wrong with him.
"it's better with you around" he says, citing dean's compassion and care for others as the reason why. and how interesting is that? sam's working with plenty of other hunters who still have their souls—they're all more than capable of caring about the people they save. but sam needs dean specifically. he knows he's missing something, and he sees dean and recognizes that something in him. even cold and calculating and unrelentingly logical, sam recognizes that dean, alone, can "complete" him, give something back to him that he's supposed to have.
in episode 8 he tells dean he "needs his help." he doesn't elaborate; he never explains what he means by that. he has a whole family of hunters who'd be willing and able to help him, but still he needs dean. even without his soul, his hyperrational mind knows he needs him.
soulless sam isn't capable of caring about dean. but he doesn't need to care to know they need to be together, no matter what—to know dean is good for him, dean completes him, dean needs to be there for him.
it's like a sick reversal of season 1. sam drags dean back into this life because he can't keep going without him. because he needs him. because when you think about it logically, and sam has no other choice, there was never any other option for them.

as much as I love the two, I don’t appreciate the gay angel and his bisexual hunter boyfriend remind me every second of every day how single I am 😭

actually hold on. even better. unrequited destiel au where dean feels like he Has to be with cas once he’s out of the empty. because how else is he supposed to respond to that? “no thanks cas sorry you died for me but i don’t swing that way.” so he forces himself back into a familiar pattern, chokes himself to death to fit his role, and the thing is that Cas is happy, Dean’s a damn good conman when he needs to be. He did this with Lisa for a year, how hard could it be to keep it up again for however long he has left to live? It’s for Cas, and Cas gave everything for him, it’s only fair.
Of course, this whole charade is killing dean anyway. trying to remember what to say, when to say it, letting cas across boundaries he doesn’t want breached so that cas feels fulfilled while dean feels suffocated. the performance collapses in on itself. dean can’t do it. and in the end, he’s still himself, and he’ll tell himself he ruined it even when the truth is that he never should have started doing it in the first place.

Me then, watching the show writers try SO HARD to write a single male character that Dean doesn’t have immediate chemistry with: "Hahaha sucks to be y'all!" *is Here For It™ in multishipper*
Me now, attempting to write Dean interacting with uuuh, characters he is NOT SUPPOSED TO BE WITH (romantically) in this fic: "...Shit." *is Cursed™ in multishipper*

une matinée lente; freshly brewed coffee, sunlight and birdsong coming in through the windows, fresh flowers, pain au chocolat, Dean Martin records playing in the background, and a cozy little book to start the day ✨
