#s4 sam

[overrated-sheep]

hey, can u guess what time it is?

that's right...more sad sam <3

sam who knows he's not the hero but he can take the hits. he'll be the shield. the house in the hurricane. the atmosphere absorbing the radiation. maybe the closer sam gets to saying yes to lucifer the more focused he becomes. he can be the cage. he is filth and rot and demon blood but he can be the dam that holds all the evil inside him. it's a point of pride. how durable he is. he always could take a beating.

i think constantly about sam in s4 willingly dooming himself, knowing he is defying angels and going beyond salvation in order to, in his eyes, save the world.

like. he said in s2 that he prays, that he believes in angels and wants to be saved. and then, when he meets angels and is told that what he is doing is wrong, evil, that he is unholy. so, he sees this and how this greater good he has believed in all of his life is not going to save the world, and he decided to become even more unworthy on their eyes to do whathe believes is right, save people, no matter the cost.

he becomes a full martyr. he walks into that church to kill lilith, fully believing he is dooming his soul and going to die.

he wasn't selfish, he truly believed there was no other option.

and he was wrong.

he doomed himself for nothing.

[ID: A digital drawing of Jonathan Sims from The Magnus Archives ad Samama Khalid from The Magnus Protocol. It is just their heads. Jon is an Arab man with scarred brown skin and long, curly black hair with gray streaks and a mustache and beard, and Sam is a South Asian man with brown skin, short curly black hair, and a mustache and small goatee. Both have brown eyes that have been drawn as very huge and sparkly. They are giving pleading "puppy dog eyes" expressions. The background is a pattern of sad green and red cat and dog faces, and there is a gold and green "VS" between their heads. end ID]

metamorphosis. yes there's a man transforming into a literal monster and yes it's about sam's descent into demon blood freak monsterhood but to me, above all, it's the episode in which dean's controlling codependency takes a monstrous turn.

he's petty and he's jealous and he's violent and he hits sam for lying and he hits sam again for talking back and he's trashing the motel room and he's the image of an abuser. dean is threatening to leave sam and to hunt sam and they both know he's not going to do either (i can't escape you, you can't escape me). there's dark fury and despair and panic in dean's eyes because sam (in tears, bleeding, taking it) is becoming more than he can control.

sam says "this blood, it's not in you the way it's in me" and dean can't fucking stand it. he immediately tries to write himself into this, sam's not doing this alone. that's his brother, his blood, how dare he go there. their blood not being the same is the gravest, most personal insult to dean.

sam says "i'm not doing it for you" and "this is my choice" and dean cannot STAND IT. sam still craves autonomy and dean STILL. CAN'T. STAND. IT.

DEAN looks at SAM for a second with surprise and then shrugs in agreement.
