thinking about dean living an intricate double life online pretending to be a housewife from lawrence, kansas
crucial that he keeps this up for like. years. and tells no one
he has like, friends, who he's been catfishing through faceapp
like essentially sometime in like early season nine he starts just posting recipes without a ton of personality because he's gotten excited about cooking and is getting good at it. but he doesn't talk about himself really. and this continues for like a year or two. and then he starts getting like comments and stuff and he realizes he needs to start like making up personal details. because like, he's dean winchester, dead serial killer. he needs to lie about himself online to some degree, so he has to create a character. and like, posting recipes online is for women. so the character has to be a woman. it like doesn't occur to him that since he is a man online posting recipes, men must be allowed to do that and he could create a male character to embody. like it's not that he's embarrassed that He, As A Man is posting recipes. it just doesn't occur to him that his persona could be a man.
#can’t decide if he’s accidentally given himself 5 kids because he keeps making up a different child that will only eat veggie bacon#or if he has exactly 2 fake children named after rockstars with long fake histories built up over the years#Joan went through a pony phase in 2015 Floyd loves fire trucks now#he describes his husband as being like John because that’s what A Husband is supposed to be like#but all the little stories about him are like#my husband went away on a business trip again woe is me#when he came home he wouldn’t even eat his favorite meal of medium rare hamburgers because he said he’s not hungry#recipe below#Bess and Garth have been following him for years they have no idea
#Dean starts realizing he may have feelings for Cas and needs someone to talk to about it#but can't bring it up to anyone in his real life#so he reaches out to his online friends#and thus begins the adultery plotline
