our new editor getting the next episode ready. sorry for the hold up he's still learning what a computer is

peanuts’ laptopping it up

[thecascast]

A mix of Nov 5th art and some @monsteroftheweekpodcast fanart that I'd been meaning to do. This fish always gets me through the workday. Hopefully the world isn't about to implode.

[thecascast]

This week on The Cas Cast we wrap up not only our coverage of Season 8, but our time with Jess. Fear not, Ella and Ilse will continue to cover all of the Cas episodes of Supernatural, but, yes, our last episode with our beloved cohostie has come. Listen to her heartfelt goodbye and her instating of jock autumn (jautumn?) as we answer your questions and discuss our takes on this season of Supernatural.

AH. So many of these are in the 1k--15k range. Where are the Cas-centric longfics!

Also! While I'm at it! In the last ep, you mentioned the angel ozone smell that's brought up in a lot of fics (I googled ozone smell when I first happened upon that description in a fic, and the results ranged from 'basically petrichor' to 'like a swimming pool' (chloride???) so idk). Anyway---I like fics where angels are weird and of otherworldly and have strange effects on their environment (other than leaving a faint scent of petrichor), so here are also a couple fics with that:

Hell is a Place on Earth (pollutedstar) -- Mary POV -- https://archiveofourown.org/works/25873384

Angels Americana (pollutedstar) -- s4/5, Dean POV -- https://archiveofourown.org/works/26098816

stranger (ozonecologne) -- more Mary POV -- https://archiveofourown.org/works/7582681

Five times Mary Winchester tried to wrap her head around Castiel, Angel of the Lord, and one time she didn’t (karoffelbrei89) -- I mean, the title really does say it all -- https://archiveofourown.org/works/8023084

take the bones, begin anew (JustStandingHere) -- post-canon. lots of Dean POV I think, but ahhh Cas and Dean are raising a young half-angel. so. -- https://archiveofourown.org/works/31364132/chapters/77558561

(Also I hear there's this fic that has really good Cas POV scenes and angel lore etc called Down to Aginc---)

writing this separately about 5 episodes too late because i need the closure,

I used a 🦴 emoji in an ask before and you guys asked in episode 53 if it was a sign-off or bone-off but actually it was just my convoluted way of saying “i can feel it (in my bones)” lol

anyway, really excited for the feedback episode!

- 🐿️👖🦴 ✨👼🚪

okay so either we missed your beautiful ask in the wrap-up bc i just finished editing it orrr we have already answered it in a previous episode and my brain has holes in it. obsessed with your vision. if anything that's a simplified way of conveying your certainty and i think we should all start using emojis a little more mysteriously and esoterically. you live in a beautiful world.

anyway ep will be up soonnn love you love your emojis. xoxo

Hello! I don't mean to pressure you at all with this ask but I was wondering when the season 8 wrap up episode of the cas cast will grace the world with its presence? No worries if y'all are still working on it, a snag has come up, or if you just don't want to answer this ask, I'm just curious. :) Hope you're having a good day!

hi! it's recorded and we are still working on the edit! the snagiest of snags to say the least has hit our editor so it's slow going over here at the cas cast offices. thanks for wanting to listen 😭 that's so sweet. hope YOU"RE having a good day!!
