you can't convince me dean wasn't already in love with castiel by s11 like. what do you mean on the episode where dean is hung up, nay, borderline desperate to find a way to get castiel back, the case they land just so happens to be handled by a hunter couple (a romantic! mlm! couple!!!!!)

dean dead ass asks them how it's like to settle down with these big green eyes just so full of longing and understanding.

LIKE TELL ME THIS ISN'T HOW DEAN STARES AT CAS !!!!!!!

and this ending, don't even get me started on this ending

THEY GET TO RETIRE!!!! THIS IS DEAN FINALLY SEEING A HAPPY ENDING FOR HUNTERS!!!!! THIS IS DEAN REALIZING AND ACCEPTING THAT IT'S POSSIBLE!!!!!!

they got me in the first half, not gonna lie, with jesse's "they killed my brother" revenge story and cesar's ride-or-die support but then. this sealed the deal.

horses???? hello mr. dean cowboy fetish winchester????? and emt???? when castiel's a whole ass healer mage with his angel mojo???? TELL ME I'M NOT DELUSIONAL

The narrative is giving, "see? this can happen. happiness does exist in this universe, but only from a far enough distance that dean and sam can yearn for it without really getting it."

Genuine questions for sibling havers, is it normal to know how many days they have worn a pair of underwear??? Is it normal that Sam goes "you have been wearing the same pair of boxers for four days"?? And when Dean mentions it's weird that he knows it Sam is genuinely like "you think that's the weird part?"

Like?

Soooo, I may have done a thing and convinced my best friend to watch Supernatural with me for the first time.

I, personally, while not having even made it through the first three seasons (don’t hate me pls 😭), have been reading ffs about it forever and obviously tumblr tends to give things away…

So /I/ know that it ends with Cas and Dean dying prematurely, (and also about the love confession but we won’t go there 😢.)

And literally all the other shit these three have to go through.

But she has no idea.

And I’m kind of excited to see if she hates me by the end of this.

We haven’t even finished the first season yet (together) so we haven’t actually been introduced to Cas, but I have told her that there is ONE main pairing that is shipped almost universally within the fandom (and in canon…).

I asked her if she wanted me to tell her when Dean’s beau appears on screen but she said she was pretty confident in her gaydar (she’s bi) and not to tell. I did make sure to tell her he’s not introduced until season 3 or 4 (didn’t want to give away toooo easily) so she doesn’t try and guess every single man Dean has sexual tension with in the first few seasons 😂

Wish me luck and hope my friendship survives this betrayal 🥹🥹

He's looking at Lucifer?!

LUCIFER?!

Of all the things I thought might have been happening that led to this gif, this was not one of them!

I decided to put on another SPN episode, 12x20 which is about Max, Alicia and their mom. I don’t remember liking this episode. I’m not particularly interested in these kids... But I suppose there are aftermaths of last episode in this one, so I’m watching. I thought if maybe the episode was potentially showing how kids can grow up in a hunting environment and not be doomed, but then I remembered that two out of three are dead by the end and the one still alive bears a great burden now because he couldn’t let go. So yeah... No. X3

*watching SPN with my mom*

Me: You know, every time when I see them do that (stick gun into the waistband of their jeans) i have to think about Moody telling Harry to not put his wand into his backpocket-

My mother: Me too!

Me: No way

My mother: Yes! Every time they do that I think some day, if they accidentally forget to secure their weapons they‘re gonna shoot off their asses

My mother: Which would be a shame really

[bestiaryyoumeanbeast]

Supernatural is a comedy show actually

[vendettasfanfictioning]

See, it's the cinematic choices like these that convince me destiel wasn't an accident or something added last minute, it had build up and it was sprinkled all over the narrative.

It's Dean grieving so much, in a way he never grieved for familial figures like Bobby or John—there is enough pain inside him that it shattered his belief that what he and Sam did was right, as hunters protecting the common folk. When, in times of multiple Armageddon-level crises and then some, that belief is what held him together. Because hey, we may have lost people (so, so, so many people) but at least it was for the greater good.

None of that, absolutely none of that, because this loss made him feel that the job wasn't worth it anymore. This was where he drew the line.

It's Dean, literally gaining back that light in his life when Castiel called.

And, at the end of the episode, there are slow, dramatic close-ups between Dean and Castiel. Because Sam's grief wasn't the same as Dean's, so Sam's relief at finally having Cas again is different from Dean's.

This moment belongs to them. To Dean, who's finally finding his faith again.

Back to s4 rewatch and it hurts EXACTLY how much i thought it would because there are things i genuinely have hard time moving on from. one of the absolute worse is that even before reveal about sam drinking demon blood, him being "not normal" is equated to evil and the whole "God doesn't want you to do it therefore this must be wrong" is just... Insane. Insane. It hits so painfully and terribly close to home.

But one thing that keeps me push through the pain is the gorgeousness of this story. Because Dean didn't know, Dean didn't know all heaven and god actually WANT to do this. Because he didn't know they are all also being manipulated by the divine. And because when in the very very end Sam becomes a christ figure, he is filled up to the brim with demon blood, with all that was told to be evil and inhuman and not normal. And i think it's beautiful. So beautiful.

OMG CAN PEOPLE PLEASEEE PLEASEE BE NICE TO JACK I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD

[spnexploration]

Watching Dean be all fatherly with Jack *swoon*

[diminuel]

I’m continuing my SPN rewatch because what else is there to do when there’s firework out and you’re too awake to sleep? X3

I’m at 12x19 now, again, don’t remember what the episode is about by number alone. My dislike of the BMOL and Lucifer (and even Nephilim) plots made me grumble my way through this season even though it has some good episodes.

Also, Cas is very pretty in this season so it’s scandalous that I don’t enjoy it more *lol*

Or do I enjoy it? What’s my general verdict? I don’t think I like it? S12 is so odd to me. Such fantastic ideas and not ideal execution...

Anyway, 12x19 now.

rewatching supernatural in the year 2023 is fuckin wild. the 2000s vibes, the nostalgia for when I first watched it like 10-15 yrs ago? and the delicious, almost completely drama-less horror of season 1? god i missed this
