Do you guys ever think about "You know what every other version of you did after "gripping him tight and raising him from Perdition?" They did what they were told. But not you. Not the one off the line with a crack in his chassis." and "You know, ever since we met, ever since I pulled you out of Hell... knowing you has changed me. Because you cared, I cared. I cared about you. I cared about Sam, I cared about Jack... I cared about the whole world because of you." and "You're the famous spanner in the works. Honestly, I think you came off the line with a crack in your chassis. You have never done what you were told; not completely. You don't even die right, do you?" and "Too much heart was always Castiel's Problem." like...do you ever??? Because I fucking do.

if you continue watching supernatural after s5 then ur literally only watching for destiel at that point bcuz nothing else in those seasons is beneficial to anyone. i think a person who doesnt see the deancas chemistry could watch swan song and be like "great show! great ending! ill stop here" but for a destiel shipper its literally impossible not to click next episode bcuz the deancas is JUST getting interesting at that point

[bloodydeanwinchester]

the only end to supernatural that i would ever accept is they beat god, rescue cas from the empty, close the gates to heaven and hell (obviously cas stays on earth), without god or angels or demons, the monsters left on earth are more manageable and dean decides he’s done his part, he can rest now, he never steps foot inside of a barn or sees a vampire again, sam and eileen have like five kids, and dean and cas live happily ever after at their lake house with jack and all of the other wayward kids they continue to adopt over the years. would that have been so hard for them to give us?????

the bond between a girl and their favorite fictional man is both an unstoppable force and an immovable object

might be lacking Sun Vitamin™, but I'm so sad it feels like there's a black hole in the center of me and it's sucking all my emotions dry leaving me in Despair™

all I did? had a nap midday and thought about how all my friends actually hate me and don't ever want to hang out with me

added subtitles to Stede calling Ed his boyfriend and now I'll go scream for a while-

[arabella-s-arts]

Scenes/Things in Supernatural that genuinely don't make sense to me if Dean was straight:

The confession booth scene.

Sam just rolling with the fact that Dean's siren is a guy while still thinking sirens infect people through sex.

Dean being flustered by several men: Gunner Lawless, Aaron, Doctor Sexy, etc.

All the parallels between Destiel and other couples. (A big one being "last night on Earth" bc how do you do that accidentally.)

Having all the gay jokes be on Dean instead of Sam.

Paralleling Sam meeting his childhood celebrity crush with Dean meeting Gunner Lawless.

The boner Dean got when Cas cleaned up.

Dean gulping after Cas does an impression from a Western movie.

Charlie, a lesbian, calling Castiel "dreamy."

The way Mary looks at Dean and Cas when they hug.

Dean wondering why everyone assumes he's gay, while Sam not caring.

The logic that Charlie can't flirt with guys because she's only attracted to women, but then having Dean flirt with the guy for her.

Dean seeming disappointed when learning that Aaron's flirting was fake.

The amount of time Dean and Cas spend staring at each other.

Dean canonically having an orgy with Crowley.

A woman saying that she knows when someone's pining for someone else to Dean, just for us to learn that Dean was never in love with Amara.

you're rewatching supernatural to cope with live? funny, I'm rewatching to recognize all the supporting actors who played multiple characters in different episodes

There's video available of Misha's purcon panel. Something that stood out to me watching that is Misha said that at first, he looked at Destiel with a playful curiosity mindset, and then over time, he regarded it as part of Cas's pov and story, something that Cas was repressing and not facing up to. Which fits with how Misha has talked about it over the years, and fits with Cas's story.

So, let me emphasize, this wasn't something that nobody saw as romantic until S15. It's that S15 was the first time Misha thought they could actually do something overt with it, the confession. It seems like Misha's really happy that finally it didn't have to be this unspoken layer to Cas, that Cas was going to get to express it and accept his own feelings. It's not just a about a ship, there's a layer that's important to Cas, the self-acceptance theme.

We also know that over the seasons there are various writers who worked it into the story. Destiel grew in textual emphasis over time.

This is not something where there was nothing, and then all of a sudden in the final season it was a thing. It was part of the story for years. Subtly. Writers working it in via subtext, queer coding, or even textual level but unspoken.

And Misha just 100% confirmed that he saw it as romantic for a long while, but Cas repressing those feelings.

It was there. It's been there a long time.

There's nothing sudden about 15.18. It wasn't tacked on or thrown in there for "fan service." It was baked into the canon for years. It was the fulfillment of years of arcing, that were consciously crafted. Not all the way from the start, but it evolved, and there are writers who worked it into many years of story. Remember that tv is a collaborative creative effort.

The reason I think OFMD feels like fanfiction (affectionate) is that it's so incredibly earnest, in a way we're just not used to really seeing. It never feels the need to point and laugh at the earnest whimsy of it all, it never makes a joke of queerness, and it never gets annoyingly self-referential in the way media that's too worried about its own image will be (you all know how Marvel movies have characters be like "ooh wasn't that weird? we have to point out how a weird thing is happening so the audience knows we're cool and above that." that thing never happens).

They want Stede to write the man he loves little love letters every day? He kisses the bottles before he throws them into the ocean. He lays awake thinking about a moment where he almost kissed Ed under the moonlight. He has dreams of running to Ed across a beach.

They have a character who wants to feel like he deserves to get married so bad, and who also wants to feel safe to explore more feminine gender expression? They have him paint a bride cake topper to look like himself.

They want a character to make the decision to live because he hears the voice of the man he loves, challenging his belief that no one cares if he lives or dies? They have his lover appear to him as a beautiful mermaid and give him a huge, lovesick smile, and it's sweet and campy and 100% genuine.

I'm used to seeing so many of the things in OFMD in media as just jokes. A fat, Black man being seen as extremely desirable. Women of color in positions of authority. Queer love and desire. Drag shows! But OFMD never, ever punches down, and it's always so earnest, and it cares so much.

Just...damn. I feel lucky every time I think about it. We've got a special show here.

"old man yaoi" has become one of my new favourite phrases which is unfortunate because it is inappropriate in roughly 99% of real world scenarios

how in just a few episodes could this person take my heart? how fast was it, i t was really fast, like I was on my knees in seconds within his first appearance

i've only known his for a season but if anything happened to him I would kill everyone in this room and then myself

literally just a simple man, but such an green flag, ideal, perfect, he is all I want in life, he's the cutest, best man ever, the only man ever

Still funny that spn s4 framed the difference between Sam and Dean as:

This is Sam Winchester, Boy King of Hell(tm), true vessel of Lucifer, who is fated to go dark side and fight on the side of hell, and he has a demon, Ruby, that he has a strangely romantic and sexual relationship with

Meanwhile, this is Dean Winchester, the Righteous Man(tm), true vessel of Michael, who is fated to fight on the side of heaven, and he has an angel, Castiel, that he has a [REDACTED]

just finished supernatural, 2 things

why the fuck

seriously, why would they do that

[girlsnjk]

being a perfectionist is ruining my life.

I've always been a perfectionist at heart.

I remember my parents always telling me to prioritize myself, to give it my all but never forget my health; specially when I was depressed in my last years of high school. I got really sick, physically and mentally and they always remind me that we don't want that happening again.

But my mind is way too powerful, and I might have bad memory in general, but I distinctly remember every time a cousin of mine has been a disappointment, and every time they have succeeded; I remember once my dad telling me to be the best in whatever I decide to do and people will respect me; my mom telling me she wants me to make a lot of money so I can go off and travel the world, I know too well the feeling of bad grades and good grades to not know the difference is just like good and bad.

I'm in college now, not the best student but I never really was (tho I was top 5 at least). I'm not an overachiever either, I'm just trying to pass my classes and learn what I need to in order to graduate, but for the first time in my life things are getting really hard. College is hard, is supposed to be, but for someone who always stuck to the easy choice to get the win, I think is even harder.

I have to be a perfect student, pay attention to lectures from 8 am to 5 pm, and study in 8 hours a day at least, and not get distracted with my phone (that now is a very important tool for studying too), and I have to keep track of my social life, eat healthy, exercise, sleep, and too many things to remember to do every single day. I'm starting to keep track of my teeth brushing by times per week, because I always forget something, it's always too much, I'm overwhelmed daily just doing the bare minimum required for a college student... I can't be the best.

I can't even aim for top 5 anymore, there's always someone better, someone that has it more together than I do, someone who just got it at the first try. My desire to be on top, to be the single one best is not met, and I'm starting to feel like I'm simply not fit for this.
