What if the show let dean grieve? What if they let him drink and rage and sob himself to death? What if they had him snap at Sam and push him and everyone else away? What if they let him show how heartbroken he was? How utterly destroyed? What if they let him scream and cry? What if they let him give up? What if they let him think that he had nothing left to live for? What if they let him die broken and alone in the dungeon where it took cas? What if they let him have peace when he was done? What if they let him in the empty? What if, at the end of their story, Dean and Cas don’t get a happily ever after and Sam goes crazy? What if it ended how all tragedies end? So many open ends, but no one to fill them. So many things to do, but no one to do them. Happy ending just inches away, but still just out of reach.
What if?
