I'm just dreading that this episode is gonna end with Cas being flung into the alternate universe to make it even more angsty that just as he is back he'll be taken from Sam, Dean, and Jack. And then the rest of the season will be Dean with fighting-angst instead of nihilist-angst fighting to get Cas and Mary back and then by the end of the season Dean will realise really how much he cares about Cas in the finale. And then next season will be Dean dealing with this admission and shit.... Idk........ It just seems so Davy to make it all sunshine and rainbows only to take it away again. With the way destiel is progressing and how quickly and evident it is becoming, from a plot standpoint, something needs to happen which won't reverse all this but will slow it all down. Cas can't just hang around because then Dean might revert back and things will return to how they were. Or if he stays the destiel stuff might progress too quickly. But if he is separated from them then this won't reverse anything that has happened, but build upon it with angsty shit until another reunion. They could leave the separation till another episode but doing it in this comedy happy episode just as he's back would be 1000000x more heartbreaking. It would show Dean what he has and then rip it away which will prove how much it means to him. It'll be an episode where he could see them all as a family and start to be OK with it for it all to come crashing down. Also, bringing in a bit of Brokeback Mountain - that story is about two guys whose lives get in the way of them being together. They meet and then they have to leave. And meet again and it's cut short, then meet again but now they have wives, and try to spend the summer together but they can't get the job again, then try to meet again but more shit gets in the way. Throughout that story/film they find happiness for a brief moment to have it ripped away so quickly...... I just think this upcoming episode it gonna go down that route too. My wholesome heart doesn't want this. But the scriptwriter in me wants this.... But also doesn't. Anyway. I'm preparing for the worst. Time to light some scented candles, have a bath, and read some calming poetry. I am off to find my chill....
