dean and adam need to unionize against sam, he's been the spoiled baby of the family for Too Long. I think when they start trying to all get to know each other they're all kinda expecting things to be awkward with dean, since 'hey the archangel you're kinda in love with was originally supposed to be inside me' and things to be a little easier with sam, since they at least could trauma bond a bit about the cage, but like. adam spends an hour having a basic ice breaker conversation with sam and he already wants to crawl back into the pit. he thinks sam is so PAINFULLY uncool. he's like dude I was in marching band in high school and even I would have shoved you into a locker. how have you survived this long with the personality of a plank of wood. dean thinks it's HILARIOUS and he and adam end up like immediately clicking. he's so thrilled to finally have someone he can (lovingly) mock sam with. every time the three of them hang out he's like hey adam let me tell you about the time sam pissed himself at junior prom. let me tell you about how sam is 35 and STILL can't do his own laundry without flooding the place. let me tell you about sam's thing with clowns. sam is SO scandalized by this and he keeps trying to counter with embarrassing stories about dean but adam shoots them all down. like, he'll say 'hey let's talk about the time when dean was 8 and burned down a motel room trying to make breakfast' and adam is IMMEDIATELY like 'you think john endangering his life by leaving him alone with you unsupervised and expecting him to know how to cook properly without teaching him is funny? interesting, samuel' but like dean could tell the same story and adam would make a point to crack up, he just Refuses to give sam the satisfaction lmao. they tease this man over EVERYTHING when they're together, sam simply cannot catch a break. Dean and Cas and Adam and Michael will go on double dates and Sam will be like 'Eileen will be in town next weekend' and they'll all be like 'cool!' and then invite her to hang out without him (dean will text him their location as an invitation because he's still a sucker, but only AFTER adam sends a group selfie to sam captioned 'stealing ur girl'). I do also think that from what little we saw of adam's personality he's just simply more like dean, so they probably have similar interests and everything so it's not like they're Only bonding over bullying sam, but like, being able to torment the middle child is certainly a nice bonus lmao. one time sam went on his run a little earlier than usual and passed a farmer's market on the way home and saw his brothers there without him, and he's never felt such pure betrayal in his entire life.
dean, mere seconds after adam actually genuinely laughs at one of his dumb little puns

Reblog if you’re a Supernatural fan so we can see how many of us there are out there!
so much love
Severance happened to my buddy Castiel in 2012-2013
Pluribus has been happening to my friend Dean Winchester since Nov 19 2020
Congrats if you survived this year because what the fuck was that
Does anyone want to talk about how stoned-Dean's primary verbalized pain point was...
DEAN: The best I've felt in a couple months. Cas? Black goo? I don't even care anymore. And you know what's even better? I don't care that I don't care.
#that rare time when sam n bobby were actually in communication actively coz dean was just Like That abt the first widower arc#they were so scared n dean was just sooo#insane things smh#cas...black goo... nightmares....maybe he doesn't need to breathe.... fucking daphne...poor dean lol via @jasmineintheforest
Right? They're both terrified out of their minds, and they deal with it poorly at times, too. When Sam brings it up, he doesn't bring up Cas as betrayal but LOSS. LOSS is what Sam's pinging in on for Dean, and that's pretty amazing (subconscious?) insight here.
Bobby doesn't know what to say, so he pivots to something that translates to: Quit worrying, Sam, because you have ENOUGH to worry about with your own mental health.
SAM: Yeah. Yeah, I kind of mean more like, uh... more like ever since my head broke... and we lost Cas. I mean, you ever feel like he's -- he's going through the same motions but he's not the same Dean, you know? BOBBY: How could he be? SAM: Right, yeah, but what if -- BOBBY: What if what, Sam? You know, you worry about him. All he does is worry about you. Who's left to live their own life here? The two of you -- aren't you full up just playing Snuffleupagus with the Devil all the live long? SAM: I don't know, Bobby. Seeing Lucifer's fine with me. 7x09
Bobby is reacting like a cat that you've sprayed water on. He knows Dean might let himself die. He doesn't want Sam to say it outright. I think Bobby's terror parallels Sam's later terror in season 13.
x - x - x -x - x
So Bobby goes hard with Dean, but he goes hard because he's T E R R I F I E D by Dean's reaction to Cas's death in a way maybe he's never been before. Maybe Bobby can't quite make sense of it, but he's locked in. Dean's drugged out state ALSO revealed to Bobby that this... is about Cas.
About Dean's loss of hope.
BOBBY: I wasn't talking about that. DEAN: Oh, Bobby, don't—don't go all Sigmund Freud on me right now, okay? I just got drugged by a sandwich. BOBBY: I want to talk about your new party line. DEAN: Party? What are you talking about? I don't even vote. BOBBY: "The world's a suicide case. We save it, it just steals more pills"? DEAN: Bobby, I'm here, okay? I'm on the case. What's the problem? BOBBY: I've seen a lot of hunters live and die. You're starting to talk like one of the dead ones, Dean. DEAN: No, I'm talking the way a person talks when they've had it, when they can't figure out why they used to think all this mattered. BOBBY: Oh, you poor, sorry... You're not a person. DEAN: Thanks. BOBBY: Come on, now. You tried to hang it up and be a person with Lisa and Ben. And now here you are with a mean old coot and a van full of guns. That ain't person behavior, son. You're a hunter, meaning you're whatever the job you're doing today. Now, you get a case of the Anne Sextons, something's gonna come up behind you and rip your fool head off. Now, you find your reasons to get back in the game. I don't care if it's love or spite or a ten-dollar bet. I've been to enough funerals. I mean it. You die before me, and I'll kill you. 7x09
It's so interesting to me how Bobby's worry comes out so... horrific. Because this is the same Bobby that proudly showed off his magic suicide bullet to Sam and Dean and announced he's pretty much suicidal 24/7 and only stays alive for Sam and Dean.
Bobby really HATES being on the other side of this. And he doesn't quite understand it, either. Or well, he subconsciously understands it.
Earlier this season? He was more open:
DEAN: Yeah, well. [Pours himself a cup of coffee.] I’m not Sam, okay? I keep my marbles in a lead friggin' box. I’m fine. Really. BOBBY: Of course. Yeah. You just lost one of the best friends you ever had, your brother’s in the bell jar, and Purgatory’s most wanted are surfing the sewer lines, but yeah, yeah, I get it. You’re – you're fine. DEAN: Good. BOBBY: Course, if at any time you want to decide that’s utter horse crap, well I’ll be where I always am. Right here. 7x02
Earlier in this very season, Bobby leads with Cas, and offers his support to Dean. But later in 7x09, when he sees the depths OF that grief, how "Cas" slips out under the drugs, Bobby SPOOKS. He can't even really talk about Cas. He circles safer topics, like Ben and Lisa, and hunting. And he shat the bed, really, when he said, "You're not a person."
But it was driven by fear. He wants Dean to nut up and be strong so he doesn't die. Because he and Bobby both recognize deep down that it is Dean's grief for Cas is killing him. (This is the same spooked-out carefulness they had when they broke the news about Cas's double agent status after Like a Virgin.)
But anyway, Bobby.
It's a surprisingly Sam quality, this professing to be "here to talk," but when it comes down to it, can't really do it. I'm reminded of Sam's tendency to say, "Wanna talk about it?" then to turn around and totally freak out, like he does in 13x05.
Bobby shat the bed on the pep talk. And Sam completely avoided it like 8| I just think it's neat.
x - x - x -x - x
Side note: It's also interesting to me how Bobby's words echo how Billie talks to Mary and Dean about their respective suicidality in 12x06 and 13x05
early seasons sam is just that bit spoiled and i think that is just a feat in itself on dean's behalf. he managed to raise a kid in a motel room off of macaroni cheese and second hand clothes but he sacrificed enough that sam still grew to be spoiled and petty. that s1 dynamic where sam has absolutely no clue about any of the shit dean went through is actually so so important because it shows just how stupidly good dean was at putting on a front of normality and protecting his brother. not only has dean been performing his whole life he's been performing parenthood his whole life and it was a success. dean's performances didn't start as self protection they started in the same way a mother performs to their child that everything is okay as the world falls to pieces around them. as s12 says, it's not fair and dean can't do it, but sam's spoiled s1 nature is a sign of how successful dean actually was

(No hate to the original, this is just more realistic to most writers I know! They’re both good tho. Would appreciate rbs for sample size)
let us never forget dean is so so tech savvy. first of all, thee emf reader. he just, figured out how to make that shit. second of all, in the pilot when he’s talking abt John’s voicemail and the evp he says he ran it through Goldwave which was a pretty advanced software at the time. then there’s s7 where he’s mentored by Frank and taught how to be a hacker and he picks it all up super fast. and dean hacking into traffic cams in s12. like just because he might not be super Online in a social media context (until the mommy blogging era) and even though he prefers older tech for nostalgia reasons, he’s still incredibly smart and skilled when it comes to technology. he knows his way around a computer ok. he’s still gonna downplay those skills and scoff at technology and pretend he’s not a nerd, not AV club. but it’s a front, it’s a bit. he’s telling you “no I’m not a tech nerd” which showing you all his cool tech nerd tricks
If a character says “I’m not the smart one,” we shouldn't turn off our eyes. We'll miss so much!
just kiss my fuckin forehead dude. i've been so good, man i swear
you think a man that fond of eating, and that fond of women, would not be putting 2 and 2 together??
"dean winchester wouldn't eat pussy" "i wouldn't trust dean winchester with my drink" "dean winchester would see two lesbians and ask if he can watch" umm i think perhaps that. you have never in your life seen a single episode of supernatural
the way dean constantly rewires brains of celestial beings is so funny. god had a psychosexual obsession with him. god's sister had an obsession with him. the king of hell was so obsessed with him his subjects had to call him out on it. zachariah had a psychosexual obsession with him. death wasn't obsessed with him but he WAS death's specialest little guy. castiel. shoutout to rowena who decided to be obsessed with the brother promised to kill her instead
