“it’ll be in the news, a little bit, here and there but…”

- Shane Madej on what would happen if we found out aliens were real from The Hidden Secrets of Area 51 (09/10/2019), I hate how right he ended up being. Those old guys on X-Files had nothing to worry about as it turns out.

A Letter to Certain SPN Fans Post-Series Finale:

Y’all may wanna sit here and act like we only say the finale sucks because we didn’t get Destiel, that we ignore Sam, that we would’ve been fine if it was gay.

Well, check your facts, kid, because I’m pissed for so many reasons.

Castiel/Misha not getting the respect he deserved after 12 years of being a part of this show and, quite frankly, saving it a lot of times.

Sam not getting to enjoy a life of freedom with his brother he fought so hard with for years.

Sam not getting marry the woman he was so, so happy to have and so, so scared to lose (and even if you say his wife could’ve been Eileen, it doesn’t fucking count it the writers couldn’t even say so).

Dean having 15 years of development totally undone by one stupid decision to kill him off right after he became comfortable with himself and gained the freedom he’s never had.

Bobby being the only fan favorite in the finale even though the finale was supposed to be about the family the boys have built around them.

The complete lack of acknowledgement or grieving for the loss of Cas from either Sam or Dean, which narratively, makes no fucking sense after the impact Cas’s exit scene had.

Barely a fucking smile from Dean when he heard that the second most important person in his life--the one he wept over while ignoring his own brother during a highly critical time--was alive and kicking around in heaven with him.

Castiel’s confession being completely ignored and not brought up again (which you can sit here and bitch and say is a Destiel thing, but fact of the matter is, in not bringing it back up, they essentially made that scene pointless for how impactful it was; narratively, once again, that makes zero sense). 

Then comes Destiel. Destiel is such a small portion of it, and most of us would’ve been happy with some nod to the fact that Cas and Dean interacted at some point in the finale and were going to spend eternity together alongside Sam. And really, if you stop lying to yourselves about what it is we’ve seen from the this show since Dabb took over--and I’m not even asking you to look at the whole show here--it has been a definite and clear shift to Dean caring about and loving Castiel in a new and profound way. Cas’s confession was the bookend to that, an opportunity for Dean to let himself love freely like he could now live freely after Chuck--and the writers just ignored it so they wouldn’t have to deal with it.

I’m not pissed because we didn’t get gay sex, I’m not pissed because the entire episode wasn’t about Castiel, I’m not pissed because I think the show revolves around Dean and Cas instead of Sam and Dean.

I’m pissed because all three of the leads got done so fucking dirty in this finale, and Team Free Will as a whole got done dirty, too. 

Even if you want to ignore the development between Dean and Cas for the past few years, their relationship still deserved to be acknowledged in the finale of the entire series because it has reshaped this show in such a profound way and given so much meaning to it. To ignore it is to ignore an entire portion of both characters’ development.

Even if you are satisfied with Sam’s ending because he got to have a family, he should’ve at least gotten the confirmation that the woman he loved so dearly and who loved him back was the one he got to start a family with. He should’ve been able to share that family with his brother, even if only for a while.

Even if you think Castiel’s confession being acknowledged had no place in the finale, Castiel himself still deserved a better ending than being killed off two episodes before the finale and then barely being mentioned in the actual finale. If the finale was meant to be about family, then the lack of Cas is absolutely unacceptable for the amount of love and quality and meaning his character put into the show.

Even if Dean dying in a hunt was fine for you, he shouldn’t have died so soon. He shouldn’t have died without getting to be happy like Sam got to be happy. He shouldn’t have just been sent to heaven to drive around for ten minutes before the end.

Even if knowing that Team Free Will ended up together in heaven is satisfying enough to you, the bullshit of not seeing all three (or four, if we count Jack in TFW 2.0) of them together one last time is a slap in the face to the fans who were expecting a goodbye and some type of closure for this show that we’ve all loved for so long.

You can love the finale if you want to. Some parts of it would’ve been perfect had they been done well. But for those of us who wanted writing that honored the wonderful stories and characters that’ve been built up over the last decade and a half, it just didn’t cut it.

So, please, try not to boil down our discontentment to “it should’ve had Destiel” or “Castiel is more important than Sam and Dean.” For some of us, those are factors, but I promise you there is a wealth of reasoning behind every Castiel post or every Destiel post that explains why the finale sucked for each person. Hell, you don’t even have to be a Destiel fan to understand why the points I’ve made make sense and why that means the finale was subpar.

Am I Destiel fan? Yes. Does the finale still do an injustice to the fans regardless of the ships they ship or the characters they love? Yes. We hoped for more, but in the end, it was still Supernatural.

WIP Whenever...

Alistair has been stunned utterly speechless three times in his life.

The first time had been vertigo. A stunning sense of falling through the floor the first time he had seen his father from afar. Seen his own features mirrored and muted –– wrapped in spun gold and topped with a crown.

The second time had been shock. Morrigan, mouth twisted in a line like she’d bitten a sour lemon, offering… something absolutely ridiculous. What do witches know of Warden matters anyway? 

The third time had been horror. He’d seen an archdemon before of course, in his dreams. But it was different in the flesh –– ten thousand pounds of malice and terror, with wings broad enough to blot out the sun.

But this… This time it is something else entirely. Something indescribable twisting deep in his belly. 

She's ––

He blinks.

Maker, she’s lovely.
