Sometimes I think about how Sam and Dean often get parallel storylines where Sam is interacting with a woman and Dean is interacting with a man. Prime examples being Benny and Amelia but also the siren episode (yes yes I know the male siren is supposed to be a stand in for the brotherly relationship he wants but come on the connotations of it being a man are still there). There are some lesser interactions; mint condition, Sam and Girl Sam, Dean and the horror movie nerd. Don't even get me started on Dean's grief at losing Cas multiple times being paralleled with Sam's various romantic interests being killed off (Jess, Eileen, Rowena). But one I don't see a lot of people talking about is Sam/Ruby vs Dean/Crowley.

Sam has an explicitly sexual relationship with a demon that coerces him down a dark path. Dean has an explicitly sexual (the unforgettable night with the twins) relationship with a demon that coerces him down a dark path (the entire moc to demon!dean arc). Sam turns to Ruby when Dean is dead and he wants revenge and Ruby uses that to her advantage later when Sam and Dean are destabilized because they're fighting. Dean turns to Crowley when they need to eject Gadreel from Sam and then Crowley uses that trust to his advantage when Dean and Sam are fighting about Gadreel. They even refer to it as Dean and Crowley's summer of love.

Also, I hate to say it but the only difference between a lot of Sam's relationships with women and Dean's relationships with men is that because the male characters are more fleshed out, the relationships are vastly more nuanced, with the exception of samwena because Rowena was a character in her own right before she was entangled with Sam. Ironically, I think the reason samwena had more depth is because the romantic nature of their relationship was never said out right, it was treated the same as destiel almost, they shared a profound bond and a deep understanding of each other that no one else could quite penetrate.

And there was only one bed

[lazarrusrising]

Important to Me that Dean and Cas start their first conversation with Dean on his knees, like yesssss I love you visual representation of power imbalance, yesssss and it doesn't matter that Dean stands to face him because he had to rise to meet Cas there, he had to be the one to move, that's MY underdog!

OKAY.

THE THING IS.

Cinematically, right after wakes up with girlfriend, montages neighborhood, then crawls into bed at night with his longtime girlfriend Lisa, we CUT TO...

...another late Night at Jonesy's, where a handsome man's been buying Dean drinks for a year.

Where the room is flooded with women, but the optics, the optics…

Flashing dat wedding ring, Sid.

Funny thing for the camera to catch on, for a conversation that cheekily circles the theme of "unavailable guys."

And such a shot, you know? Flanked by guys, guys, guys.

DEAN: [Pest control] was then, and now is now. SID: Wow. You're practically respectable. [eyebrows raise]

Where have I heard that? Oh, yeah, when Dean was flirting with the djinn/gorl, Carmen. "A nurse. That's so respectable!"

Then, Sid pulls a classic, "Wow, the waitress likes you," and Dean cheekily holds up the number the waitress already gave him. Dean says, "It's like chick’s dig specifically unavailable guys."

Maybe that waitress knows Lisa, maybe she doesn't. But the thing about this line and this whole scene is, only one of them's signaling unavailability. Sid, with his wedding ring.

Dear tears apart the waitress's number ofc.

We cut to the goodbye. And please keep in mind: this scene follows Dean's goodnight routine with Lisa.

But the optics! Here is Dean, but he’s saying “goodnight, see you tomorrow” to… to the man buying him beers.

Dean is at the bar. Sid is buying his drinks (apparently AGAIN, a thing they've been doing all year).

And they duck out of the bar:

And Dean is paranoid to be outside, sure, that's NOT in doubt.

But the goodbye is... Well, it's awkward.

And yes, Dean's paranoia is what we’re transitioning to scene-wise, but the way this manifests as nervousness with Sid, Dean doubling up Sid’s words and speaking over him during an awkward goodbye.

the optics the optics the optics

SID: O-kay! (rising wierdly on the kay) I will see you tom— DEAN (breaking in over him, nervously): I'll see you tomorrow.

DEAN: Thanks, man.

And we've said it before, Sid is a merging longing for everything from Dean's old life, each and every family member, because that's how grief and memories work.

BUT ALSO

ALSO.

Dean has a harmless-I'll-never-act-on-it-crush-because-it's-harmless-and-unavailable…

True in MY MIND.

Cas’s LOATHING for not having his powers—for feeling weak—right here in 5.21, without any of his friends guilting him about it. In fact, he showed up completely unexpectedly and saved Sam and Dean from Pestilence without his powers. They had no idea he was going to show up to meet them.

I bring this up just to emphasize that, contrary to popular framing, Cas’s feelings of shame surrounding weakened powers didn’t originate with Dean expecting him to be useful.

[scoobydoodean]

This bit of dialogue from Death has always been so funny because it’s just… a bunch of hogwash?

There’s nothing snarky or self-important about Dean asking if Death is going to kill him. They are currently surrounded by the corpses of some small “bacterium” Death killed. It was the first thing Dean noticed when he snuck inside and scared him shitless. Dean has every reason to think Death will kill him for no other reason than he killed everyone else in the restaurant... not to mention, Dean walked in with Death’s scythe (the one weapon that can kill him) in hand and got caught red handed. There is literally nothing self-important about Dean’s question in this context and Jensen doesn’t give us that kind of vibe from Dean at all. (The way Dean cringes in fear when he drops the scythe hsgdhdhdhdhdh)

Death saying humans are too insignificant to kill is belied by the corpses surrounding them, but also quite pointedly, by the dude Death killed a few scenes earlier for bumping into him on the street and being rude. He’s clearly capable of being annoyed by humans and getting mad enough at them to kill them… at least in Chicago which is set for destruction anyway.

So why does Death feed Dean all this obvious bullshit? Because HE thinks Sam and Dean have an inflated sense of self-importance based in their tendency to cheat death, and so he projects that view of Dean onto his question. And Death’s obvious lie about humans being to insignificant for Death to be mad about them enough to kill them? Well. He thinks that’s going to hurt the ego he’s so certain Dean possesses.

[scoobydoodean]

You don’t take the time to tell someone you don’t care about how little they mean to you if they actually mean that little to you. You don’t care what a bacterium thinks about you or itself. You also don’t invite it to sit at your table to begin with and share your deep dish. This whole speech about how Death doesn’t care…? It does nothing but show that he does—because he’s being forced to by the impact of the apocalypse on him. It isn’t just Dean that’s making him so angry. In fact, it isn’t even primarily Dean that’s making him angry. He’s leashed to a petulant child—Lucifer—someone he also regards as insignificant, and the fact that he’s being forced to do Lucifer’s bidding is utterly enraging. He’s mad at the entire situation. He’s mad that he needed a bacterium’s help to get out of this mess—that he had to wait for Dean to come and find him just so he could transfer his ring.

Death says Dean is not special but Dean is sooo special that Death spares Chicago just because Dean asked. Specialist boy in the whole wide world.

[scoobydoodean]

Sam responding to Bobby with a “Yes sir” is as good of a “Bobby is my dad” acknowledgement as you’re gonna get from Sam… at least until soulless Sam tries to kill Bobby for a spell that requires patricide.
